august.

It's here. The month I am so excited for and so nervous for that the same time. Praise God that I believe in His plan for me, because if I was without faith in the hopes that God places in my heart, I'm sure I would have ran by now.

My future career is not one of comfort and familiarity, it is something that challenges me daily to face the things that are hardest to me. I have to wake up and say, "You are in control God," and trust that he will protect me from the loud voices of my insecurities.

I can't wait to be living in Mason surrounded by people who are real in their own struggles, I can't wait to meet all those middle schoolers and love them to the core, and I can't wait for the beautiful ladies of WMS to enter high school. I can't wait to play with Hazel, chat with Katie and Mark, and snuggle with Baby Burley on the denim couches.

I can't wait to combine life with progress, if that makes sense.

I have zero expectations for everything, except the expectation that God will show up in whatever way His will has planned.

And with that, I am completely content.
