A Season of Life

This last year has been quite a different and amazing experience. I'm truly thankful that the Lord allowed me to work and serve at the IBLP headquarters for these last 11 months. I have learned SO much and have been apart of things I could have never imagined I could have been apart of.
I am so unworthy, so weak so feeble, all I can do is praise God for using and working through a wretch like me! All glory laud and honor to Him!
This year has been full of joyful times, hard times, times of tears and times of laughter, times of frustration and times of peace, times of exhaustion and times of rest, times of doubt and times of faith.
 I have learned more of who my dear Lord is and more of who I am in Him. I have learned more of His gospel and how important it is, more than ever to proclaim it-no matter what the cost.
Working in the IBLP International Department especially taught me a lot. Never again will I take a mission trip for granted, a lot of work goes into a trip even if it's for a short time. Meeting leaders and people from all over the world, seeing the Lord work and draw so many to Himself.....I will hold all these things dear to my heart.
I was truly sad to leave, but like I have told many and have said on here before, I'm learning how to hold the things, places, and people God gives me in life with an open hand. So often I grasp onto these so tightly and then have to go through the painful process of the Lord prying my fingers open to make me let them go. The Lord gives them to me for a season but there is always an end to these things.

I have met and lived with a lot of special and precious people this year, but there are a few that are a especially special to me and that I'll miss like none other! I thought I should share some pictures of these super amazing people with you :)
