Well. Home Sweet home. The culture shock has been easier than I anticipated. I feel as if I've slid back into life here quite easily. There are moments though, when I think about my home across the ocean. Not with a longing ache, but with a warm heart and a smile. I was singing in church this sunday, when I thought about chapel at El Jordan. The students would gather together and worship God. There was only a piano and a guitar, not many people actually sang the right tune, but it was so beautiful- the mood light as all around remembered the grace and goodness of God. I feel like that's how it will be in heaven. Everyone rejoicing and singing songs of praise to their creator.
As Abram said before I left. Even if I don't see them again this side of heaven, we will all be together again, praising God, except this time, with no language barrier. How magnificent a dream!

So, I have been spending my time hanging out with my friends, running around to doctors appointments and spending time with my mom, brother and grandpa. It's been a busy week. But, thank goodness, I got the results back from the doctor. And besides a curable disease I got from the babies, I'm healthy again! (or at least on the road).

My application to Briercrest is soon to be processed (it's been slowed by the mail strike). I kind of feel like I'll be accepted. It seems the Lord has been pushing me in that direction. Pretty crazy. Makes me laugh a little. I can plan my steps, but it's the Lord who directs the path. So here I am, a mile away from the plan I had for myself a year ago- even 6 months ago, and pretty excited about the changes he's made.

Camp is coming up in just over a week! I am excited beyond words to see what God will do this year. Please be in prayer for the kids that will be attending this summer- especially for the girls in my cabin.
