This year I have learned how to actually fly. I guess I spent a few years dreaming it, but this time I actually tried it. It feels absolutely amazing. God has lifted me high and has given me so much more hope and happiness. Not only does He encourage us to take that first step, but He backs everything up. When a giant step requires getting in debt at first, He provides the exact finances. Nothing more, nothing less. He hasn't stopped amazing me this year, and I don't think He intends to cease this!
In a matter of months, I'm going to be packing boxes up with my stuff and head down to Southern California. I'll be walking the paths of Azusa Pacific University. It's hard to imagine, but yet I know it's real. This is the most unexpected turn of events in my life. I had absolutely no desire to go back to college. Yet something in me was begging for a purpose, a new journey, and a destination. God surprised me and led me straight into a place I never once knew about until He showed me.
It feels like a dream that I don't even deserve. I can't even get myself to picture it happening, yet I know it will. I want to begin already, but I don't want to rush anything. Although before such a new life begins and before I move along, I'm spending my last few weeks before school to relax in another country. None of this seems real! I cannot picture myself in the United Kingdom! But I will be there! I will be on a plane and on my way in fifty-five days!
I'm dreaming wide awake now. And for that, I really don't want to close my eyes again.
