Hello loves, 

My support letters are going out today!

Now on to the next…these past few days, weeks, and months have been an interesting combination of ambition, lack of focus, procrastination, joy, hope, and smatterings of sadness.  Seeing so many of the people I love preparing for the next stage of their lives has been challenging and encouraging.  I have a new nephew whom I adore, one of my best friends moved away to be a real life grown up(which seems to have become a pandemic among my friends), and so many of the beautiful people God has surrounded me with are engaged and planning their futures with each other.  These are all awesome things, but also remind me of what I'm leaving behind.

 

My beautiful niece and gorgeous nephew!

As all of these things happened around me I felt like I was being left behind but God has gently reminded me that I too am leaving and becoming a grown-up, maybe just not as conventionally.

 I'm reading through the Gospel of Mark and have been constantly reminded of the wisdom of Christ, no question or problem was or is too difficult for Him.  I feel He is telling me that its okay for me to question, to wonder, to express my doubts…because He knows the answers, and wants to share them with me.  

My prayer is that I would desire to listen, to acknowledge His wisdom, and lay aside my fears and doubts.  

In a more practical vein, I'm almost done purchasing all my gear, hopefully my sweet tent will be here soon and I can practice setting things up.  Pictures to come.
