Well, it's been a little while since I've been on Facebook and I don't feel like I've missed a lot. I do miss connecting so easily with my friends who I don't see every day, those who live out of town especially, and I'll bet my friends with newborns are posting pictures that I'm missing! That aside, this has been a good thing for me.
I feel like the Lord really has my heart these days. I look forward to reading my daily bible devotionals that I get via email, especially Girlfriends in God. I hope this doesn't sound morbid, but I just want to go home. I know I'm young and have so much to live for, but I'm tired. I'm not giving up, I'm not depressed, I just know that heaven is such a better place. Honestly for the first time, I don't feel like I have so much left to do that I don't want to leave. I mean, of course I do, but there will always be more. I just feel like my heart is moving "home" and not in worldly things anymore. Nothing here is really such a big deal that it competes with being in Jesus' presence constantly, in His perfect peace.

Oh, my goodness- I just read 90 Minutes in Heaven, which is such an amazing read! My mom lent me the book since it's Spring Break for me and I read it overnight. I can only imagine how this man, Don Piper, would feel after literally leaving heaven to come back to constant pain, suffering, depression and physical challenges. Heaven is soooo much better than this place, but if God hasn't taken us yet, He has a purpose for us here. I will perk my ears, ready to tune in to His will for me.
