We took some family pictures yesterday. It was somewhat bittersweet. I'm glad to spend time with family and get some people I love on film to take with me to England. But it's sad too. It is 9 days till I leave (I know the countdown to the right says otherwise, but I can't figure out how to fix it yet), and I'll miss my family and friends. It's been hard lately to think of leaving, knowing all the things I'll miss out on. I had my commissioning service at my church yesterday too, and I realized it was my last church service there for some time. Said goodbye to a lot of people...people I've grown to love and appreciate. I know that God has called me, and I would never back down from that, but still - how do you say goodbye? Is it a 'good' bye? Is it a see you later? I don't know. It feels like a bye that isn't so good and is for a long time. I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, because it is a joy to follow God. Following God always involves some sacrifices, and if you really think about it, are they truly sacrifices, or more like a greater surrendering? Regardless, I will follow in obedience - hard or not. Your prayers are much appreciated!!
