It is so easy to look at the world and wonder if anything is truly different from day to day. The sun rises and sets, night comes and it goes and we continue to fall into the same patterns of sin. 

And yet as Christians we cannot answer that everything is mere vanity or that things are somehow still the same. Christ has come in the flesh, the Word Incarnate has dwelt among us and we are changed forever. 

And so we must begin each day anew trusting that we, and indeed everything, will be made new through Christ.
