I will be in America tomorrow.
Oh my goodness…
My heart is racing as I type this.
How the heck did this happen? Where has this year gone?
Wasn’t I just boarding a plane for Nairobi, Kenya…excited, nervous and ready?
Now here I am, 11 months later…coming home.
Oh my goodness…
I’m honestly not sure what to expect.
I’m coming back to places that have been so familiar and comfortable to me,
but
I’m different.
I’m still me, I’m still Kelly.
but,
I know what that means now.
I know my identity and I’m confident in it.
I have recognized BIG truths about me this past year.
I know I am a daughter of Jesus.
I know I am beautiful.
I know that I was created to bring glory to the Lord.
I know that I am a leader.
I have learned a lot.
I have also recognized smaller things about me.
I am an extrovert. I love sharing in moments with other people.
I love physical touch.
I love one-on-one conversations.
I am sensitive to the max.
I am comfortable without makeup.
I love giving things to people.
I love loving people.
This race has changed my life. God has changed me so much through it.
and honestly, right now it’s crazy hard to imagine leaving this amazing
group of people I am surrounded by.
they have grown to become my family.
they have seen me at my best and at my worst.
we have fought and loved hard.
it will be hard to say goodbye.
but. but,
“there are far, far better things to come than those we leave behind.” C.S. Lewis
I truly believe this. This year has been so incredible and one I will never forget.
It is not, though, the climax of my life. I am SO excited for what is to come.
so so excited.
Jesus is so good and I cannot wait to see what adventure He has in store for me next.
I love you all so much. Thank you for your comments, support and encouragement you have given to me this past year. It meant to much to me.
