If someone were to have asked me on the first day that I arrived if I would feel sad about England my answer without hesitation would have been "NO!" But now that I have met some amazing people from around the world, I have had the amazing privilege to take part in a beautiful church sold out for Jesus, and have finally received the feeling of being settled in, I am actually quite sad to leave.
On the other hand, I am so very excited to go back to the States because there is so much to look forward too. I get to see my family and friends that I have missed dearly, and in a month I get to see my boyfriend and one of my very best friends!
However, there are some things I am not looking forward to school, being one of them, I won't go into detail on the others. I need Jesus to make my heart calm, and ready to go back to the States.
I feel I have changed a lot while being in England, and I feel that there are certain things that I will be going back to that my heart is not ready for. I do have faith and trust in my Savior to make my heart right, I know he has a plan and purpose for me and he has closed this adventure in England and is opening up a new one back in Arizona.
I am so very thankful for this opportunity that He has provided for me to come and study abroad. It is everything I expected and yet completely different at the same time!
Today I am off to Manchester, managing a bus and two trains with two large suitcases a backpack and a purse! I am staying the night at a hotel near the airport and tomorrow morning I will board a plane and fly off over the pond back to the States!
Although this adventure is closing, I hope that you will continue to read my blog and join me on my new adventure in Flagstaff, where I know God will be doing even more exciting things in my heart.
Jesus thank you so much for this amazing opportunity! I have loved it and am so grateful that you were willing to use me as a tool for your Kingdom. I ask that you prepare my heart as I go back to America, give me a loving attitude and mind and plenty of your love to share!
