Life has been changing so much lately; but it's not a bad thing. I'm looking forward to this summer and not looking forward to it all in the same breath. I'll be working at the local newspaper, trying to find rides... but all is good; I am confident that everything will work out.It will be a hard summer in the aspect that I am not overseas... but also because Seth WILL be overseas... It's amazing how fast someone can become your crutch, your comfort... but Father is quick to teach me that I cannot place anything or anyone before him. He's showing me the needs of my friends and how to MORE SO (realistically) view my life this world, my campus, San Angelo with his eyes. I have opportunities in front of me, some I'm afraid to take, because it doesn't 'seem' to fall in line with what I plan to do (such as: taking a teaching job-- but with the chance of leaving to go overseas two years after; i feel horrible for only 'temporarily' filling a position)
So, everything feels like it's up in the air....
anyway here is a photo of me and seth from this weekend (it was Sammy and Tina's BEAUTIFUL wedding...)
To be honest; i'm not sure why i'm updating everyone on the production of my 'magazine' but ya know; whatev.. ;-)

It's amazing how life seems to sometimes spread its wings and take off; while at the same time keeping you grounded. Life is moving on; and I find this worldy thing i do... school, work, internships trying to find rhythm as it dances with my spiritual life.. and then i stop and realize why are the separate? they are one in the same.. Father has placed me where I am for a reason... and he hasn't called me to separate my school/work life from him.. in fact, the exact opposite.
I sometimes think mentioning this is stupid; b/c i know this, we all know this... but reminders are nice.

I already have a wedding dressed picked out.. the wedding should be in ONE year... and I am going to start working at Standard Times (local newspaper) in May.

I was inspired by something a friend put on his face book today; it was a lone picture of someone he had met abroad... a person who literally has no one in this world... and my heart was broken from a short explanation and a lone picture.
I want to be family to the lonely. I want others to know Christ and I want to be made available. I long for more knowledge of the word, but also an obedient heart.
