A whole new world.

I haven't written on here in months! I'm not in South Asia anymore!

Since I've been home, things have been CRAZY! I've done a LOT of reexamining my life. I've been trying to decide if living overseas long term is really what I'm supposed to do.

My last few months in SA were full of turmoil. My dad was in and out of the hospital the whole time, and my emotions were pretty much on a rollercoaster depending on what I heard about him. Because of my schoolwork that I had to finish, I was not able to come home during that time. But God was there. God was SO faithful to me! He was with me when I felt helpless. And now, my dad's health is better than it has been in at least four years!

Since my trip, I have graduated from college, and in two days I'll start my new job at a bank. Right now I am learning that I need to be faithful in the responsibilities that God has given me here. I am excited about my new job and the friendships I'll make. I am learning every day to trust God more and more as I spend time reading His word.

It's not that I won't ever go back overseas, I just feel like right now I'm right where I'm supposed to be. I'm waiting for God to show me the next step while being careful to make the most of every opportunity that I have now.
