Tonight my heart aches. Not all in a bad way, it’s just heavy. I’m sitting in my half empty room in College Station staring at blank walls and empty drawers with tears in my eyes. It’s a funny limbo between mourning the end of the sweetest season and celebrating of my next adventure. Saying good-bye to classes and tests and campus and hello to precious kinder-babies; leaving one ministry to walk into the another; saying bye to sweet friends and praying that the Lord would provide community that is even half as rich. My heart hurts that college is practically over and my time in college station is actually over. I’m scared, excited and oh so nervous to get to Plano. But this I know for sure… God is good and the very least I can do is be obedient.

Jesus, Thank you. Thank you for giving me a reason to shed tears tonight. Thank you for the friendships made in the place. The abundant grace. The hard lessons and the refining fires. Thank you for Esther, Daniel, James and David. Thank you for letting me explore deeper depths of your love. Thank you for teaching me how to walk with you and listen to you. Thank you for giving me words and people to pour them over.  Thank you for being the same God here as you will be there. Thank you for going before me and speaking so clearly. Thank you for courage and boldness and faith. Thank you for baring my sin and changing my life. Jesus, you are good and I am excited and anxious and ready to be used.

Plano,

Ready or not…. Here I come.
