i’m still in California right now… i leave in about 10 hours to Florida… from where I will head to the place which so tightly holds a piece of my heart [Haiti].
ohh boy
i have this tightness in my chest that won’t go
away… my breathing definitely feels more shallow than usual, and i am
slightly on edge… i’m not sure what it is (haha)… but somehow i am
still at peace. somehow i still have perfect comfort in what is
happening around me. somehow, as i watch the minutes on the clock tick by, i know that i will be okay when i
finally say goodbye to mom, dad, gramma, sissy, and peep for the year.

i know that it’s not really, “goodbye.” it’s really just, “see you in a year.” but deep down in my heart, i feel that in different ways it is goodbye… but not a bad kind of goodbye.
sometimes in order to move forward, you have to leave things behind.
today marks the transition.
today marks the change.
today marks the beginning of a defining year to come.
today marks the day that i step into a new chapter of LIFE that God has already written for me.
i’m ready. here [we] go!
SO, here’s all my stuff (my guitar is not pictured, but that’s GOING TOO!!!) . I didn’t think it would be possible to pack my entire life into this small of a space, but lo’ and behold: i did it!!!
you’ll hear from me again soon
Micah6:8
He has shown you, O
man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of
you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And
to walk humbly with your God?
