Old and New

School started again today.

Some things will remain the same.

Another year of school pictures.

Football games.

Studying for tests.

Projects that require scrap booking supplies.

Semester exams.

Exemptions.

Basketball games.

Some things will be new.

Driving to school.

Eating lunch off campus.

ACT test.

College applications and resumes.

Dorm requests.

College visits.

Can we enjoy the old?
Be in the moment?

What about the anticipation of the new?

Will it be scary or exhilarating?

Will we rise to the occasion

or fall to our knees in frustration?

Will we behold God in those moments?
