Cheers to New Beginnings!

Here's to New Beginnings! New beginnings that don't forget the beginnings that have already begun.  New Beginnings that know they stand on the foundation of many beginnings that have tied up their ends.
New Beginnings.
Exciting Beginnings =] But beginnings nonetheless, that include nerves, goodbyes, moving forward, and discovering yourself in ways you've never quite had to before.
And so I pack.  I pack up my clothes.  And I pack those clothes into my tiny Ford Focus. And the road waits to meet us as I journey on to the start of something new and something I believe to be wonderful.
I can't quite describe all my emotions.  Or pretend that I'll be able to get them across in full detail.  But above all I am Expectant.  And that expectancy makes me excited.
I know there is a lot to come and a lot ahead of me and I do not know yet how I'll best handle these unpredictable situations.  But with all certainty I am a daughter of the Almighty King and nowhere I go ever leaves Him behind.  In fact, He is already preparing the way =]
And so I expect for my God to do great things.  And I expect for my King to take care of me.  I expect for the Lord to show me His strength in areas I know strength in myself does not exist.  Oh, to be on a journey with Him =] Nothing better.
So, if you're praying for me, pray that my heart might take rest in God.  And that I let tomorrow take care of itself.  Pray that my relationship with God only deepens as well as my relationships with both people I am leaving and people I am joining.
To God be all the Glory! Forever and ever and ever!

Cheers!
Here I come Shelby Township :)
