Final Moments

Wow, in my final moments of my last week God still continued to amaze me.

I think I finally understand what closure may be. I don't necessarily think it is an ending of something, like a chapter in our story. I think it is coming to peace with something, finding an understanding so to speak with someone. I got that with a couple of different things, which is what I needed before leaving.

It was so good to see so many people this night at a send off party before I leave for Seoul. I only regret that I didn't have more time to sit and talk to some of you more, but to at least see you and hug you and feel supported was great.

I think my favorite moment of the send off party was when the kids asked me to jump on the trampoline with them (I think it was after a picture Sheli took for the awesome wonderful calendar she made for me to take with me). I was jumping with so many of the little ones who mean so much to me, and then I looked up to see so many of you watching me at that moment. I was truly in my element and truly in a moment God created me to be a part of.

I also find in this last week that God has a really big sense of humor. I met a very incredibly amazing man the week before I was moving half way around the world. I know God knows what He is doing, so I can be assured by keeping it in His hands. I just still find it pretty ironic.
