And it brought back a flood of memories, and reminded me again of how much I miss all of you - incredibly much! As I remember all of the chapels we had together singing this song and worshipping together, all of the late nights in Waldock, ridiculous meals late in the caf past closing, being intensely burned out yet being encouraged by each other and forced to laugh. The walks at night, the random pool excursions, the brain frazzled non-sense moments that were so much fun, the incredibly deep and encouraging conversations. In light of this I wanted to say thank you to every single one of you, the Lord truly blessed me by bringing every single one of you into my life - I love you all and your impact has truly changed me. I know there is not much that I can do in return, especially since we are all in so many different places now, but what I can do is pray for you, so if there is anything specific I can pray for, I would love to! So please let me know. I would love even more to see you all if any are in the area at any time!
As much as the past is precious though, the present is right in front of us, and we are all called to make the most of our time: "Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil." Eph. 5:15-16, so in view of this I would love to hear how you all are doing now! I know there are plenty of wonderful things going on in all of our lives - even if it is the Lord stretching us :) . Life continues to be dynamic and new memories are being made each day.
