Redemption is near

I know it's been a while since i've been on here...

The semester ended with a lot of questions about some things and a new one began with some even more difficult questions. There are places where some things are still painful, but also places where God is opening my eyes to see redemption happening.

There was once something I liked for a short time, but not in the right time or understanding or place.
Then, yesterday, after a really good and subtly redemptive weekend, I realized that God was giving it back to me. He was giving it back in a different way and in a different context and with different people and a completely different understanding, but it was coming back all the same. It has been years since I'd had this, but God was giving it back.
It is, by no means, comfortable or easy or peaceful. But God replacing something is always the best way to have it.
I'm growing.
And I'm learning.
And it's still, perhaps, most difficult of all to trust people.
But I'm learning, and God keeps putting people in my life to restore my trust in humanity.

One day at a time.
