I am right now a little after midnight because I can't sleep. I can't sleep because my mind is racing with so many thoughts about what has gone on this summer and what is to come. It's hard to believe that Lindsey and I will be moving to Texas at the end of the month. We have gotten a lot done, but we also have a lot more to do. I have barely slept in my own bed from traveling so much this summer. It's just been wild, but it has been so exciting. God has used each trip to teach me something about Him. It's taught me a lot about trusting Him and His faithfulness. It's taught me a lot about obedience, and seizing the opportunities that lie before you when God calls you to them.

I don't know how to describe how I really feel. I am excited to move but I am scared at the same time. I am sad to leave the closeness of family. I am more upset about leaving Glennville than I thought I would be. The trips this summer have made it so hard to say goodbye because I have just fallen so much more in love with the students here in Tattnall and Evans County. I have met some amazing students and have gotten to know even better students I have known for awhile. It would have been a lot easier if the camps wouldn't have been good or if the students didn't embrace me all the more, but they have and it hurts to leave. They all have so much potential to do some awesome things and I hate that I won't be around to see it. Thanks to Facebook, email, cell phones, etc I can at least hear and read about them. I never dreamed I would go through all these emotions but I am.

I know that God has all things taken care of and if I will put my full trust in Him than it ultimately will end up well because it will be for His glory. But, it's so hard to do in times like this. It would be so much easier to stay, but I know I would be out of God's will. And as much as I want to be around those youth, I know that it can never trump God's plans. If you are a student or have been a student in Tattnall and Evans Counties, know that I love you all so much and pray for great things in your lives. I hope that I get to hear about everything God does in your life and through your life. Will you move when God says move? Will you speak when God says speak? Carpe Diem!
