Home, Home on the Range...

HEY!!!!

So how have I been? Some of you might be asking, while others of you know because you see me practically everyday! Being home has been amazing! Kyle and I have been able to get a lot of wedding planning done, my new baby nephew is adorable, I have been able to hang out and be encouraged by so many of my friends, not to mention telling people about Jesus in the Oregon district has been so reviving to my witnessing heart, and the Lord has been able to do a lot of needed healing in me. The first year on the field was rough for me and I felt like I came home a little beaten up and bruised but the Lord has been faithful to help me through some things and build me back up again!

"Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess for he who promised is faithful...You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For in just a very little while, "He who is coming will come and will not delay. But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him." But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved." Hebrews 10:23, 36-39

Also while home I have been doing support raising such speaking in a couple of churches and sharing with a youth group. When I share my heart grows more for missions and I am excited to share this Sunday at my friend Amanda's church. Please pray for God's Spirit to be there. So, yes, things are going great. I know that I am only home for a season and though I am not ready to leave again quite yet I know without a shadow of a doubt that the Lord will prepare me and get me ready to go out again. Life is a lot less stressful when you let Him do the planning and you faithfully walk where He is guiding you. Have a good day and maybe I'll run into you soon!
