I'm not sure what this feeling is that I keep having. I thought it was nostalgia, but then I looked it up and the dictionary describes it this way...
NOSTALGIA: a wistful desire to return in thought or in fact to a former time in one's life, to one's home or homeland, or to one's family and friends; a sentimental yearning for the happiness of a former place or time.
I haven't even left yet and I am already expecting to "yearn for the happiness" of living in Boerne. What kind of an attitude is that? I KNOW that the Lord is leading me to San Angelo and I am excited to see what His plans are and how He will work, but its still really hard for me to willingly walk away from the things and people that have been such a HUGE blessing in my life...the place that I have been happy and content for so long.
I will trust the faithfulness of the One who has always been faithful, I'm just admitting that it is not easy.

i'm excited for a time when i actually feel settled. i feel like i've been in this transitional phase for years now. it's exhausting.
can you come to minnesota already and visit me? (when i'm actually in minnesota that is)
