What a Day!

Today has been a tough day...my best friend left this morning for Oklahoma, and I cried as she pulled out of the driveway. It's so weird because I don't know if its really hit me yet. I keep expecting her to walk out of her bedroom.

I really feel like I'm moving into a new "season" of life. Everything is changing. And that can be tough no matter what the changes are. It's partly tough because I can't really see what's up ahead for me. Through all of this, I'm taking comfort in the fact that God is the one CONSTANT thing in my life. No matter how my circumstances change, he doesn't. Today I've just been reminding myself that I have a purpose in this world that was designed by God. And that he's going to walk with me through all of life's changes. In Hebrews 13:5 God assures us:

"I'll never let you down, never walk off and leave you," (MSG)

It's awesome to be reminded of that!

Hey Poppy
I can kind of feel what your feeling with the best friend thing. Torrie lives in San Diego and even though its closer than Oklahoma its just as hard to visit her. But with not seeing where your life is going, I always look to this verse when I am going through a struggle in life.
Jeremiah 29:11
"I know what I am doing. I have it all planned out-plans to take care of you- not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for." (MSG)

Kinda the same as the one you put up.


I love you and I will miss you when you leave....:(
(When is that by the way?)
