Whaddup Big Man Upstairs!

Throughout this journey I decided I was going to write you love letters aka my prayers out loud. I pray that you awake my soul throughout my last 5 months here in Knoxville. Throughout this summer I have felt disconnected, but when you have presented yourself in moments I have felt nothing but your presence. I pray that my soul is on fire with my relationships in these months with the people I will be without for a year, but also on fire for the new ones I will form at Training Camp. Before I know it I am going to be on that plane with a backpack the size of me looking forward to my travels. I always have a hard time getting ahead of myself when I just need to be still and live for the day and I don't think I have ever wanted this so bad then as I do for these last five months. Where you invest your love, you invest your life. Thank you for walking alongside me during all this, I definitely could not do this alone.

Love your daughter,

DeAnna
