Since starting college last fall, I've faced many challenges dealing with being out on my own. The one that bothered me the most was my uncertainty of what the world held for me outside of my little town. I'm not sure exactly what I want to be, or where I want to be in my life, and even though I have a few years to decide, it's still scary. As I've grown closer to God, I've started to hear him saying "You are now, and will always be, my child." Not only am I less scared about my future, I'm excited to see what it holds: how I will grow in my relationship with God and others; how I will make my mark on the world; and how I will always be held and loved by God, and that's just beautiful to me.

New Beginnings
As I woke up this morning, I couldn't help but to be filled with the same excitement I've felt every morning since I found out that I'm going to get to be on staff at Carolina Cross Connection. Not only will I get to spend my summer serving others and hanging out with awesome people from all over the place, I will be spending my summer focusing on the most important thing in the world: being near to God.

Besides, who needs to worry about the rest of my life, when I have the most amazing summer of my life coming up in just a few months!
