wow. I am such a horrible blogger. nothing since SEPTEMBER? that seems like ages ago. but, it's a new year, so I'm moving on, starting fresh. here's to hoping I'll do this more often.
today I moved back to auburn. such a bittersweet day. mostly bitter though, if I'm being honest. I got so used to being home, so comfortable in my old cullman habits, that it was difficult to leave. classes start back tomorrow, and I am stressed, excited, nervous, everything. I'm sort of a bundle of emotions right now. tonight, after I traveled and unpacked and settled in bed, I opened my Bible and just prayed that God would comfort me. I just needed anything, a few words to remind me how good He is. I settled on a verse in Ecclesiastes that basically said "Everything is futile." strange that this would comfort me, but it reminded me how tiny all our struggles and worries are in comparison to His great strength and love and power.
tonight feels a lot like when I first moved to auburn, almost a little worse. I know that probably by tomorrow afternoon, I'll be right back in the swing of things, but right now, it's not feeling like home. I'm uneasy, restless, like I don't know what to do. those are the moments when I get the loneliest. I keep telling myself, just focus on God.
