A quiet sliver in time.


I'm sitting here on my bed listening to Bon Iver, savoring the clean, dimly lit apartment; the city lights outside; the warm spring night and thinking about this past week and the weeks and months to come.
Moving down here I knew it was going to be a quiet season for me: of me really coming more into who I am called to be, growing up, and drawing so near to my love, Jesus. It has been just that. I don't even quite remember who I was before moving, I feel like I've grown up in ways that I never even knew existed and grew deeper in Jesus to the point that that is truly all that I desire. It's been such a rich time and I know it's only going to get better, deeper, and stronger. But this past week started the next season for me. I've had the past 6 months to dream, plan, pray, travel, spend time with friends, and connect down here. I've LOVED it. More than anything. Now though it's time to go up higher and actually walk in what I know I'm called to do... it's been a nice break and now I'm refreshed and revved up for this coming season. It's been amazing as it's going to be more busy than I've ever been, more traveling than I've ever done, and more out-put than I've ever given. But in this increase, I've seen God come right along side of me and provide each step of the way, each worry or fear of not being able to pull through God has made a way. I'm astounded and I've only been in this one week so far! The end of August is the nearest slower time in sight and until then I'm trusting God to get even 6 hours of sleep each night with all there is to do. But I know that with each promotion that He takes me to He provides and doesn't leave me behind to fend on my own! It's exciting and I'll hopefully be posting a lot about all the interns coming in, the weddings, photo shoots, and traveling that will be happening but if I don't post everything just know that sleep is coming before blogging.
I love you all so dearly and am thankful for you.
