so fresh and so clean

Well here I am. I've officially moved and am settling in before orientation and classes start up. It is such an amazing blessing to be able to live here with Jill and have a safe place to come home to. "How am I doing?" you may ask. Wonderful! I am so at peace to be here and be doing what God has set before me. Even as of yesterday I was completely freaked out and trying to find any other option that would require less change (be a career waitress, lab assistant, shoe salesman....), but at church this morning with my family I heard a really convicting/comforting sermon. The gist of it was that when God has given us a path or direction we need to not freak out and run away. Instead we should take His hand and embrace all that he has for us and the places He wants to lead us. So for all of you who have been privy to my rants & fears about grad school, I apologize. God has blessed me abundantly and I know that I am where I am supposed to be. And He would not have put me here unless He was going to get me though it too.

All that to say: I'm settled in, I'm excited, and I'm trusting my unknown future to the God I know.
