Well it was great to be home and go to sleep to the sound of Mississippi crickets instead of guards blowing whistles every 30 minutes. Also good to have a hot shower, eat real BBQ and American Mexican food with the family, drive my car, sleep in my own bed, and soak up some sun. What is up with this hotness?! And I thought I couldn’t breathe in Ecuador with the altitude. Also, important side note…within the three weeks I was gone Sonic no longer carries frito chili cheese pies, or anything with fritos…por que?! Now I’m trying to control myself with all the good food surrounding me here in Nashvegas! Can’t wait to try new churches and start my clinical fellowship! I’ll be working in 3 different schools here in the Nashville metro area.
Lots of new beginnings! It was so hard to say goodbye to my best friend and her hubbie but I’m so thankful for how they are being used. They leave for China for at least a year on Monday! Also said bye to sweet little Mae who I won’t see for a while. Everything is happening so fast!!! Praise God for his sovereignty over our lives no matter what season!
My ways are not your ways. My thoughts are not your thoughts. With my doubts and my fears Lord I run to your cross. I lay it down I lay it down I lay it at your feet. I cry holy holy holy Lord you are worthy worthy worthy Lord. I run to you, your ways are higher, cuz you’re a God who loves me through every season of my life and there will never be another, your ways are higher. Bethany Barr Phillips “The Way”
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:7-8
I pray that God, the source of HOPE will fill you COMPLETELY with JOY and PEACE because you TRUST in him. Then you will overflow with CONFIDENT HOPE through the POWER of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13
