It's flown by so fast but at the same time I feel like I have been at Pine Cove for forever!!! Crazy... I have grown closer to these seven others girl than I have with a lot of my friends back home and I've only been with them four weeks! The thing on my mind lately is the beauty and joy of community and fellowship. For some reason, I have made it up in my mind that I can only be intentional with my relationships. But I have come to realize that I can have these relationships with people back home, and especially as I leave for college. Right now, I am overwhelmed with how much I have learned, am learning, and will learn. My prayer is that as I leave here and have some time to process everything that has happened the past five weeks, I will be able to retain everything I have learned and apply it. I am so excited to let Christ take control of my life and stop trying to control it myself. I have been able to live the past five weeks not worrying about what comes next- I know that when I need to know something, I will be told. Otherwise, I don't need to know! In the same way, I need to trust that God will reveal Himself to me when I am ready and knows exactly what I need and will provide it to me. I could go on forever about all the lessons I've learned!! But it would take SO long to type it all out and you wouldn't ever finish it! Most importantly, I know I need to form habits on the things I've learned so that they can become character traits pushing me to be more like Christ.
How good is His love, great is His grace, deep is His mercy, and perfect is His live.
Until next time,
Kel :)
