new.

well, graduation came & went & all of a sudden, i'm twenty, i'm back home, & i'm sleeping in my own room.

weird.

can't believe how fast the past 5 months flew by, 

but i know that a lot of my life was lived in 5 short months.
:)

god is so good.

i've been thinking back to April 2nd & that girl who left home
to go up north.

i'm so thankful for all that God has shown me about Himself & about myself during this time.

i used to not believe that love was a real thing, & now i've experienced it.

i used to not really believe miracles happened much anymore, now i've seen hundreds.

i used to not really know who i was, now i know i'm God's beloved.

i used to avoid dreaming, thinking every dream i had was impossible or impractical,
now i'm full of dreams & i can't wait to do them.

i used to carry my past mistakes around with me, now they're gone & i'm free.

i used to compare myself to others all the time, i still do every now & then,
but no matter what, i know He loves me for who i am.

i used to believe God wanted only my obedience, now i know He wants to know me, too.

i'm not who i was.

i am a new creation.

i'm free.

:)

thanks to all of you who have supported me throughout this whole adventure... 

i can't wait to sit with each one of you & tell you as much as you want to hear. 

i'm so blessed to live life with you all & have so many loving people supporting me 

throughout all the crazy journeys god takes me on. i'm blessed by you. xo
