so i woke up last night...

at 3am, gasping for air. For some reason I dreamed I was already in Lisbon, experiencing the feeling that I have been dreading. That, "Oh no, what did I do?" feeling. That, "Oh gosh, I am really here for 3 years" feeling. But I know it is temporary; it will pass as all things do.

I am still counting down the days until family and friends. 3 days until family, 10 days until friends. yes yes yes yes yes yes YES!

i can't wait...

to see all my best friends in less than 20 days!!! Gosh, I feel so blessed to be able to spend even a couple more days with you all again.

These last few weeks have been going well, and I have been able to form a number of good friendships during my time in Virginia. I also have been tremendously challenged to make the Father an intrinsic part of my everyday life. There are still so many ways in which I feel inadequate for the task in Lisbon, but I know that He is faithful to provide all good things in His perfect timing.

More to come soon, promise...
