heima.

h o m e .

a safe place, just like i remember.

i love texas.

i love the familiar faces of the people that watched me grow up.

these are the ones that saw in me what i did not always see,

the ones who have believed in jesus in me since day one,

the ones who still support me today.

the faces of those that pray for me daily,

look forward to each time i come for a visit,

send me gifts and encouraging notes,

who generously give even when it isn't convenient.

i wish there was a way to pay them all back.

i am so blessed.

i really love the people that make this place home.

chasing daylight

back in the usa.
fdts has graduated. it's always such a bittersweet feeling when schools graduate. i can't even imagine how it feels when parents say goodbye to their kids. i hate parting with students, i love them too much!  i'm so proud of each of them, the girls in my small group, my outreach team; i saw each of them grow up and when they went back home, they each looked more like jesus. what a gift and a privilege to be a part of God changing hearts, and growing a passion in them to share jesus with the world. i can't wait to see what they end up doing.  no doubt the kingdom of god will be effected.

my heart is happy. i enjoy what i do. even in the hard seasons, god's always been so faithful.
heading home to texas today.
can't wait to see those friendly faces.
