Back in Houston

As usual it has been a whirlwind of a couple of weeks. I continue to be going at a mile a minute and I have no idea when it's going to slow down. Last week was a very rough week, but also good in a sense. I hadn't planned on meeting some awesome people in Virginia that I would have to turn around and say goodbye to. I think I cried constantly for the last five days that I was there. But it's a testimony to how much God blessed me over the past two months. I learned so much from them and was continually changed because of God working through them. Thank you so much for pouring into me, I miss you gals!
Before we had to do all the goodbyes we had a chance to go out to Virginia Beach for the day. It was so much fun and relaxing! All we did was lay there in the sand and rest. And reflect on the fact that as many as are the grains of sand on the shore is how many thoughts God has of us! Isn't that incredible?!? He thinks of us that much...why do we ever doubt His love?!? He is so faithful too...the God who is faithful to cause the earth to spin so that the sun will rise and set at the perfect time is faithful to provide in every way.

Then on Thursday I headed to the homestead. And as soon as I got off the plane I hit the ground runnin'. We went straight to eat...Mexican food, mmmmm good! Then I came home dropped off my stuff sort of unpacked just to get my dirty clothes out and then left to surprise some friends from church. It was so awesome to be there and share all that God did over the last two months. I felt like I was running my mouth at a mile a minute but I was just so excited and I couldn't stop smiling because I was around these great people talking about our Lord. I came home after that really unpacked only to repack for the beach. We left Friday and then I was able to relax. But it has all picked up again because now I only have 6 days before I get on a plane to leave this country for two years. How in the world am I going to pack for that? I have no idea but it will all work out...moving one step at a time and eventually it will get done.
