In 5 years...

It all started with an ordinary, common question I asked my friend Kendall...

"What age will I get married?"

24

Geez, can he pick a more typical answer...

In five years, I may be married. Weird. It's hard to contemplate...or even grasp the idea of actually finding and being with the girl of my life, considering how young I am, what I plan to do, and since I haven't even had a serious relationship with a girl.

But it got me thinking that only five years ago, I was a freshman in high school. Weird.

I didn't have a relationship with God and only lived in Redding for a year. Thoughts of uncertainty, girls, Orange County, popularity, and grades filled my head constantly. God was the last thing I kept in contact with.

To see and think how much I have been filled with passion and love for God...is...baffling. And I thank God everyday for the opportunities I have, including being with him...and him calling me out that day, five years ago...
