Hopefully, I'll be back

Just a warning, this blog is a little scattered. Probably because my brain in a little scattered, trying to process the last month, and functioning on way too little sleep. so, just an FYI. 

I'm sitting in the airport, about to leave Europe. I would gladly trade in my tickets and just stay in Macedonia,  or anywhere in Europe really. I have fallen completely in love. I love the people, I love the culture, I love the beauty of it all. But sadly, I must get on  the plane, fly back to America and finish school. (If you know me at all, you know this is a reoccurring theme in my life. I say with a sigh 'I can't, I have to finish school.') But I know God has an epic plan for me in America, just like he had for Macedonia.

Sometimes I forget, God can do really awesome things in Buies Creek. Small, no-stop-light-town which I (sometimes reluctantly) call home. God can work there!! I don't have to fly half way around the world to love on hurting people or encourage believers.  God can (and has) change my life in little old Buies Creek. So even though I would gladly stay here in Macedonia, ....and even though I have to remind myself that spending July in Buies Creek will be great.... I am kinda excited to see what God is going to do this year at school.

All that said, I do still have a... whats the word? lets call it a curiosity about foreign missions. I say 'curiosity' because I'm not sure where it will go or what it will develop into. But I know I love missions, career people on the field, and now Europe. So we will see what is in store.

It has been a crazy, amazing month. I am truly touched by the people I met and lives I got to be part of.
