This is it…

The life as I new it is over, and now I have the privilege to start a new life, with new responsibilities, new experiences, new friends and new loves.

It’s kind of weird knowing that I am all “grown up” and leaving the house next year.  Everything is such a blur…especially the future.  Over the past 11 years I knew that I was going back to school the following year, I knew what to expect, but now I fear the future.  It feels so awkward not knowing what to expect.

Most people I see in town ask me if I’m looking forward to next year.  To be honest:  I’m scared out of my wits.  I’m so afraid that I won’t be able to cope without my parents, so afraid that I will give in to the temptations of the “adult” world.  So scared that I won’t be me anymore.

But then I remember these words:

Hebrews 13 : 5

For God has said: “I will never leave you;   I will never abandon you”

Fear is a natural thing, but the only way we can conquer it, is if we face it with God.

One step at a time…
