Allora

I just googled myself and found my blog from over two years ago...story of my life....literally ;) It's funny...the last post I wrote was about trying to write 25 things about my week for 25 weeks...I guess not much happened?.... Quite the contrary.

I finished out a phenomenal year in Salerno- seeing God grow His love in students and in my heart. I lived in California with my parents...that was really difficult. Only God's grace sustained us...I am confident that God's arms are holding me and my family. But don't get me wrong. I certainly have had many reasons to smile and laugh! God is always faithful to bring blessing even when the world seeks to bring destruction. I worked at a thrift store and got to know a ton of people with whom I probably would have never socialized.

I got into graduate school at the University of Southern Mississippi...for Social Work. That is a long story, but still the moral of it is: God is faithful and almighty!

I love being back in Mississippi. As much as I fought being from MS as a child, I now relish it that much and more. The things that I'm learning in school and life are numerous, and I am getting the sense that I've still got a ways to go...and that's okay.

I'm off facebook for a bit, so maybe I'll try my hand at this again. I guess we shall see...
