The countdown has begun. And here's how I'm taking it: I currently have 13 days left in Grenoble to LIVE fully. To stand in hushed silence at these mountains. To capture the exact smell of Place Notre Dame bakery so as to always remember it's goodness. To speak and listen to french as often as I possibly can. To love my friends here in a way that evidences how greatly the King loves and has consistently loved them. To worship the Wonderful Counselor, the Everlasting Father, the Almighty God, and the Prince of Peace, for such a time as this one.
I've had some time to think this morning, to pray, to be in the Word and to gather my constantly stratified thoughts. My emotions are all over the place as I prepare to leave (or as I prepare to come, depending on how you look at it). I am sad to leave but not I'm not leaving sadly; I miss my family and I miss my friends just as much as when I left, and I am anxious to be reunited with them.
I covet your prayers in these last two weeks, I really do. I feel humbled to know that I have a family (immediate and otherwise) back home who wants me to soak up life here just as much as I do. And as you encourage me in the best way possible-- as you pray-- I ask one thing:
Pray I'd be centered in the Word and in worship. honestly, that is what will make these two last
weeks full, joyful, and totally guided by the spirit. that is all I need.

I am praying and always will. 13 days of allowing the Spirit to guide you, center you, lift you, fill you, keep you, calm you and protect you! Change is not the end of something...it is always the beginning of something more for you. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! Love you more, Mom
