Today was an exciting day but at the same time there were some down falls to it as well. After being home for almost a month and half I headed back to campus today and said goodbye to my mom. It never seems to be easy to say goodbye to my MoM. I had a wonderful break and holidays with my mom and a great last weekend with her as well. My mom is my best friend, my other half, my partner in crime and not being with her is like having a piece of me missing. I know it is a lot harder for her being in an empty house with no kids and being so far away, but I know that God embraces her and holds her ever so close in his arms and brings her the peace, comfort, joy and love that nobody but God can give. But tonight as I sit in my apartment in my room, I am missing her. missing home. Missing where I have been, missing what is familiar, missing family. But I know that God is right here with me and when i am weak he gives me strength to face the next day. Every step I take is one step closer to him. As tomorrow is my first day of the new semester, I know that it is going to be the best semester yet because God is behind me all the way just like always. For in jeremiah 29:11 it says "For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you. PLans to give you a hope and a future" I know that my future is brighter than any sun has ever shinned and that when i keep holding on I will see the dreams and the visions that I have in my heart unfold before my eyes. I have enjoyed being able to be back with my girls. My friends mean a lot to me and it is fun to have some good laughs and good times together. I cherish the moments we share. I look forward to many more throughout this semester. This is a new season a new year. DO YOU BELIEVE THAT ONE YEAR CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE? I DO! I am ready to walk in that change and see that change.......
