Wow. Time has flown. In less then a week my team and I go and have our final debrief.
It has been quite a year. One full of fun, tears, joy, new friends, phone calls, emails and so much more. I wonder some times why the Lord brought me down hear.

It has been a hard year of working in the office and learning how to do things like making spreadsheets, posting blogs, helping people raise their support. Its been good though. I have learned how to freeze panes, make formulas, encourage people when they feel that they can't raise anymore.

Today one of my teammates was telling someone that without Jesus she would have already left. It is so true of me too. This year I have had to let go and let God. It has been a year of trials in which the Lord has gotten me thru. He is a strong tower which will never fail. Its awesome to really know that. To really know that the Lord is here for me. Actually here. Like right next to me getting me thru everything. He is My strength. My joy. My rock. My light. It's awesome to know that.

Along with this year being hard there had been fun time too. Times of laughter. Times of dancing. Times of loving. Of hanging out and making friends. My roommates (also teammates) and I have had many dance parties on our balcony. We have sang to many songs on the way to work. Many trips to the grocery store, runs to Wal Mart and lots of Starbucks runs. We have had lots of great conversations sitting on the kitchen counters. We have gone from 4 girls who didn't know each other to 4 girls who are sisters. Yeah we still have our sister moments. (For those who have a sister you know what I mean.) We have our differences but we love each other. A love that I believe will always be there. So I thank you King, Em, and Ash for being great roommates and sisters.
