I watched a building implode today.

The above pictured building, actually.

On it's own, a display of amazing destruction.

I went in looking for a bit more.

What I pulled out of this was something pretty deep, or so I think, at least.

I think that watching this building fall was perhaps God's signal for the end of my deconstruction, and the beginning of my reconstruction as a new person in His light.

In the bitter wind of this morning, I think I witnessed both the building, and my old life taking it's last fall. In this past week, month, and year, God has shown me so much, that I think it's time to get started doing what it is He has for me. I think I'm being shown this. My heart feels like it's right.

I feel that now, this journal will become a witness to my reconstruction in the love of God, and what He can bring into a life ready to be rebuilt in the image of Christ.

My confidence in faith is renewed, in the things that have been revealed. My eagerness to see what God has in store now is greater than ever.

I hope this now bears witness to a building in ruins, taking the shape of a beautiful glass tower, reflecting the light of what is true in this world.

When we see what He can do, what beauty on this world can be without Him? In God, what beauty can we see that is not indeed God's face itself?
