You've been remade. I've been remade. I've been given new life.

In one second-it could all slip away. I was able to experience this just last night. As I worked on paper after having my passion marred by my biology advisor-I decided to go on a drive. And I drove far away. So far away from Calvin. Later that night I decided to go out again, until my sister called me and asked me to go and get her so we could both go out on a drive. And so I drove the car around and made my way back to Calvin-where I waited as she got in the car. We didn't have a heading I just drove and kept driving. It was around 10:37 p.m. when I thought maybe we should turn around and go back. So we made a right turn and soon I saw a gas station that had let me know earlier in the afternoon that we were headed the wrong direction. So I knew that I would just turn around and head back on the road. It all happened so fast. I didn't notice the red blinking light in front of me-I assumed it was yellow. And I also assumed the car coming in the opposite direction would just stop-and it was too late when I realized that he wasn't going to. Before I could stop this from happening-he hit us and we went flying and flipped around twice. I didn't stop screaming until the car stopped and we were upside down.
To say the least it was tramautic. The impact of it all is still fresh in my mind. And I'm not going to drive for a really long time. But amidst it all I've learned one thing God is good. And He is so good. No matter our mistakes-no matter the pain. He is good and He loves me. He has given me life-He was there through the entire thing. And He has blessed me with wonderful people, like Rachel Elaine to help me get through these things. To give me laughter and joy when things looked so bleak.
God is great. We might be bruised and broken-but He is here. Here in the sorrow, here in the joy. And He has remade us. Because He makes all things new again. And so my soul sings-praises to His wonderful name. And I'm thankful for everything, I mean everything. God is good to me.
And His glory appears like the light from the Sun. My soul sings His praises.
Holy is the Lord. My soul cries out for He is my rescue and shelter.
