sometimes I think about the things that may never be normal in my life.
Things like: I may never own a home. Not the kind you dream of owning when you get older, I don’t see a white picket fence in my future these days. I may have to line-dry my clothes for the rest of my life. There’s no telling really but these are little thoughts floating in my head. Someone said to me yesterday “You’re at the age of finding your husband and getting married” I guess sometimes I forget the average flow of life. I thought I would have just graduated College this week like the rest of my friends who are living a more by the book lifestyle but that’s not the case.
I instead am living in a house with 10 other people. In Spain. I live in a room with 3 other girls and we sleep in bunk beds. Yes. Bunk beds not the most glamorous thing about my life that’s for sure. I hang dry my clothes, and we rarely have hot water for showers. I am not complaining it is just a fact of life when you are living in a foreign country you just learn to deal in any circumstance. So yeah. If you would have asked me when I graduated high school 4 years ago where I would be at this point I would have NEVER guessed I would be in a foreign country let alone a missionary.
This is where I am. I cannot work due to visa requirements but I need to be here in Spain learning, and being equipped for the next step of life. I would have never guessed I would have to be so humbled by asking people for money to live. For housing, food, utilities, and class. Man it has been an experience so far but it is where God has me. I will do my part and ask and know that God is promise keeper. He will provide and He will continue to love me (and everyone else) through every season.
