Wishful Thinking 

by Frederick Buechner

Using the same old materials of earth, air, fire, and water, every twenty-four hours God creates something new out of them.

If you think you’re seeing the same show all over again seven times a week, you’re crazy.

Every morning you wake up to something that in all eternity never was before and never will be again.

And the you that wakes up was never the same before and will never be the same again either.
