I'm A Big Girl

This past weekend, I moved into my first big girl apartment. I have lived on my own for 3 and a half years while doing my undergrad in various apartments, and even shared a house for a while. But, those were all 30 minutes from home and I was conveniently able to keep a lot of stuff at home and go there whenever I wanted. I even moved back in for my final semester to save money for my PA school move that I knew would be coming, though I didn’t know where at the time.

This past weekend, I moved all of my belongings from my parents’ house to my new, very own apartment 7 hours from home. It’s my first big girl move. I have a roommate. She’s awesome. We are both in the same program and our first real roommate conversation was about JESUS so that was a perfect start to say the least. Then, we planted a flower box because we decided our view out of our window was a little too bland and needed some color.

I’m looking forward to what HE has planned. I don’t know what it looks like but I know it will be good. I know it has been prepared ahead of me and I will step in faith. My move is already testing me (moving in a monsoon, half of my stuff getting wet, broken hot water heater, 3 weeks of not knowing anyone), but it’s an adventure and I’m along for the ride!

Acts 17

²⁶From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. ²⁷God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
