Usually I don't like to cry and I don't like people to think I'm sad. Because I AM so excited about my next adventure in Romania. I'm excited to follow God's leading and head out into this great unknown. I love adventure, change, new experiences and I love Romania. Most of all I am excited to be a part of God's ministry to the lost in Romania! At the core, my heart is at rest in following God's call. I trust my Lord and Savior to be with me every step.
But... I know it's important to be real during this time. The real truth is that it IS sad. It's hard to leave all the people you love and care about for an entire year. It's hard not to know the next time you will live even live in the U.S. for more than a few months. I hate to think of all the changes in people's lives that will happen while I'm away. Holidays, births, moves, sickness, decisions, birthdays, accomplishments, and all sorts of other things I'll wish I could be present for. So, yes I've been getting teary now and then, okay I even cried a few times. I know I need to though. It's part of a healthy transition.
It's hard to believe in five short days I'll be in Romania again! It's been a long time coming. the word: FINALLY is often associated with my departure. Yet, God's timing is good...really it's best!
See Ya Later!
