Well I haven't updated in a really long time. Life has been...well busy. I can't believe I'm almost done with my junior year of high school. Tonight we said goodbye to the seniors of my youth group. That's going to be me next year. Although I wasn't super close with the seniors, it was still emotional to see them go. Life is funny sometimes....it seems like this year has flown by so fast. I'm so grateful for all the things that I have learned this year. I have grown a lot, and I am still growing. My mom and I are officially going back to Romania this summer. There are no words to express at how excited I am to go and see those wonderful kids again. I had a dream the other night that I got to talk/see one of the kids that I bonded with last summer, and it made my heart ache in wanting to see him. God has great things in store for our team in Romania.
God has been teaching me lately/this past year on letting go. Letting go of control is not something I enjoy--I suspect that most of us don't. One of my favorite songs right now is Mended by Watermark. In my last theatre performance there was a dance to that song and I was amazed at how I could worship God just by watching that dance. I feel so...blessed and honored that I have the privilege of having a relationship with God. He's so amazing. I have also been struggling with some desire issues. I have been wanting *my* guy. The perfect one. It's so hard to let go (my two favorite words) of that and give it to God. I have been getting better, but it's one of those things where it's a constant struggle. I am so grateful for my friends. They have impacted in countless ways that most of them don't even know. Solid friendships are so important and I'm so glad that I have developed them. I want to encourage whoever is reading this: God has a plan for you. Don't get discouraged because things will get better. Let God work in you in the remaining weeks of school and through the summer. Let's live life for Him and Him only. I love you, Lord.
