Well....
Home, the social unit formed by a family living together. That is one of the definitions of home. This is a picture of the main building on base, pretty much the heart of the base because this is where we have lecture, where we fellowship over meals, where I serve the most, and it's just a gathering place. I feel it's almost as if it's a safe place, just having a place to go where you know people always are. Home is a lot like that, it's a safe place you know that you are loved when you go home. For me I'm learning that God is my home. Traveling around so much I need something consistent in my life and he is unchanging. From day to day schedules to weekend activities, to monthly changes, I can always count on him to be there and to just love me no matter what. In this environment things move faster than they do in the real world. It can take you on an emotional roller-coaster ride and when you reach the bottom you crash. We have to remember that when our hearts are in God there's nothing that anyone can do to us. I am protected and I have a place somewhere, I matter to the most amazing God there is! Since we got back from Queenstown things have been just a little off. I have been struggling immensely with so many different things. Which sucks because I had an amazing time in Queenstown with God and all the students. When I got back to base I could just feel that something was up. Monday was madness. I just had one thing after another then one person after another. I think what has to do with it too is that I haven't had a day off in about 2 weeks, like a full day because we got back on Saturday and I had to help with dinner, then on Sunday our ovens were out so we had to run around and find someway to make pizza. Then Monday was the start. Such a crazy time and with so many emotional people here it doesn't help when I have people come tell me to be happy. I know I need to be and I'm working on it but I just need time to process so many things.
I just pray that everyone is doing well and that as the summer comes to a close back home and school starts again people can just stay relaxed and know that you are loved! Thank you so much...
