leaving

tomorrow is my last sunday at pulaski wesleyan and to bluntly tell you how i feel about leaving, it sucks. my heart yearns for this place. i was hoping to stay here for years to come. in the last year i have seen teens transformed. to look at them a year ago and to look at their lives now i am so excited to see what God has for them. i have seen the church grow immensely over the past two years and want to see where God will move in the future. the last 6 months we have had a vision committee meeting and talking about what is next in the building process here. i have seen three successful mission trips to new orleans (going on the first). i have seen babies born and start walking and running. it has been an amazing journey while here. and that is why it sucks so much to know God is leading us else where. i dont want to leave, this has been my home and i could have been very comfortable here in my position.

that is possibly the reason i need to leave. i am not sure what God has planned for us in the future. it is pretty scary. but i know if God is asking us to leave a place we love then the place he has for us must be pretty amazing. i see doors starting to open. i see God moving. but not necessary on to many of the details at this moment. that is okay, still scary but okay.

sunday is the annual church picnic and jenny's and mine last sunday here as youth pastors at pulaski wesleyan. we already had our tear jerker of youth service yesterday. they presented us with a scrap book with a different page made by a different teen.

boxes are starting to be filled and moving is starting to be a reality. mat kearney's song "where we gonna go from here?" has been played quite a bit and is also my prayer for now.
