aug. 27. 2017.
A month ago this time I was preparing to say good-bye to this little borough of London called Harrow. A place I had come to love, people I would find myself missing.
Today I say good-bye to North Dakota.
A month from now I'll be in North Carolina? Maybe south? preparing to say good-bye to year 22 of my life.
A year ago this time I didn't know I was going to move to Williston. I packed a bag for a week, which became four months, then eight.
A year ago I had no clue I was going to spend four months of 2017 overseas.
A year ago I didn't know half the people I now love like family.
My plan for my life a year ago does not match the events of his past year, but the Lord has been faithful to teach me of his goodness, his kindness, his wisdom in the good, the bad, and the ugly.
I have a plan for my life a year from now. I have dreams and desires. But I hold them loosely because the year of 22 has taught me his plan is always greater. And I can trust my kind Father to bring me to where he wants me. And that is a good place to be.
