Fear.

That’s what I’ve been feeling for the past couple of weeks.
That’s why my room still looks like I live there.
That’s why even when I left Toccoa at 4:20 a.m., I still was not done packing.

As I sit here at the Atlanta airport, it finally hit me that I’m really leaving. I guess what sparked that was the text message I received from my roommate. I am leaving forever…we won’t be roommates anymore. I’ve done really good not crying, until now. Tears are streaming down my face and I am finally accepting that I am leaving GA. Even after I sent all my boxes..I still felt as though I was staying. Reality hit this morning. And it hit hard. Three years have been spent here and it’s going to be hard to imagine life without all the wonderful and amazing people I have been blessed to know.

So there’s the fear. Fear of not having anyone. Fear of what I do not know. Fear of…this next chapter in life.

To kill some time, I read a devotional and it talked about fear. I was reminded of Psalm 139:7-12,
“Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, ‘Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,’ even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.” 

So I am trusting that as God has called me to this new chapter in my life, He is there with me - holding my hand.

On a side note, can’t wait to see my Daddy in Denver! :D

The little things in life that we take for granted. A washer and dryer. Not having those suck, but I came to realize that there are some people who can only afford to wash their clothes weekly or bi-weekly. I’m thankful for having a washer and dryer and for my mommy and daddy for working hard to provide.
