I am so blessed!
As I type I am sitting with two of my best friends in the world. I'm just relaxing today. They are recording some music.... because thats what they do... And I am listening... because thats what I do. For about three hours now, I've been thinking about how incredibly blessed I am.
Here is why.
Yesterday I returned from a week of service in Maytown Kentucky with about 40 of the best students and adult leaders a youth pastor could ask for. I mean seriously. They are simply amazing. One student decided to follow Jesus... Clearly the high point of the week. I was also able to see some of the students really truly act like Christ. I am so proud and impressed by these students! There were no issues with the students that are even worth mentioning. It was simply an amazing week.
I have to say... its been a long year. I thought that being a year long intern would be much easier than it has been. There have been days where I felt I was on top of the world and then there are days that I felt like a bum. Its been hard living with a family and staying in their house, Simply because it makes me feel like a bum.
The good news is that Its almost over! The plan is to go full-time in June! That means that I can have my own place! Woo whoo!
I am blessed!
More than that, I am able to work with some of the best adults and youth in the world. After spending a week with them, I am convinced that this is the place where I need to be. I cannot wait to be settled. I cannot wait to see what God has in store!
