My week.

It's been one week since I posted. I'm not going to lie... this last week was a pretty crappy one. I found myself feeling pretty down at the beginning of the week... desperately missing Virginia, my friends, and my family. I found myself feeling lonely along with being confused about why I am here, and what the next step is. To top it all off, I was hit with the harsh reality that my student loans are hanging over my head and I will very soon need to begin paying them back. But, even through a discouraging week, God is still good. He allowed me to feel sad and cry, but sent me moments of encouragement along the way so that I didn't have to stay there. Friends to listen, even if they are thousands of miles away. Songs. Dancing with baby Ava. Friendly strangers. Perfectly timed invitations. Good discussions and laughter with new friends. Someone to pray with. Clear days. Grace. So, at the end of the week, I am aware that God's hand has been in it all. I know that He is good and that He has brought me to this place and He will bring me through it. I think the week to come will be a better one than the one that just passed :)
