One year mark

Hey y’all! That’s right I’ve hit my one year mark! WOW has time flown by. Looking back on the last year I can recall the struggles of picking up and moving across the pond, having to say good bye to friends and love ones and cling to the promise and call which God has given me. I can’t say it’s been easy. Having to learn a new way of life, learn a new language, and get adjusted to the new “norms”. However, I also see the great joy and blessing that I’ve seen over the past year by obeying and following the Lords plan. The things I’ve seen, the people I’ve meet and the team the Lord placed me with is forever life changing. The simple truths the Lord has taught me and my daily walk with Him is so much richer! Looking back I wouldn’t change a thing! Through the highs and lows God is good…. My provider, my rock and comforter in my very present time of need.

Last week I had the opportunity to attend a ladies retreat in Krakow, Poland. The time spent with others was a breath of fresh air. The opportunity to share one another’s victories and struggles was a sweet and precious time to me. Also getting some comfort items from the States such as peanut butter and Hersey Kisses wasn’t bad either. All to say it was an awesome time and a wonderful “vacation”.
