Take A Breath, Look Back and Thank God it's Over

Well, it's the New Year. 2007 has been kicked of the podium of time and has been replaced by a new emperor, 2008. All I can say is, good riddance 2007!!! Seven is such a dull number anyway, and it's about time it was replaced. If I'm permitted to open my soul on this squre inch of blogosphere, then I shall do so. The year 2007 sucked quite profoundly. I'm not going to go into the details of exactly how it sucked, but I'm glad it's gone. Although, God did do a lot of work through the things that happened. 2008 promises to be full of new challenges and more of God's work. All the things that happened in the past year helped make make me into a stronger person, though many times I wish it didn't have to hurt as much. But that is how God works most of the time. The sermon on sunday night talked about the trials the new year will bring; God will still try us as his children and put us through fire to mold us into fine working instruments.

Well, I originally just came onto my blog to rant about how much I hated 2007. I lost some friends and I made some new ones. That's how it goes, not always with the same methods though. The people in my life influence me so much. The friends I now have are pretty incredible. There were things I lost with the friends I lost, and God brought new friends to bring those things back in. Life is an airport, and someone flew away, and someone else looked to their side and saw me. Thank you, God.

In other news, there will hopefully be a Magistrate part 2 sometime in the next week.

From "well" to "week", I whole-heartedly agree.

God is so good, isn't he? Working so mysteriously in our lives, and yet granting so much mercy to us evil sinners. He is a God of love.

;) Later.

Good riddance to 2007 is right! I did learn a heck of a lot, though...
