In exactly 4 months from now I will be on a flight on my way to Sydney, Australia. I'll be going to Hillsong International Leadership College to major in worship music. People from all over the world are going and I could not be more excited for this amazing experience that lies ahead. The best way to describe what I'm feeling 90 percent of the time lately is anticipation. However, I know that I need to treasure the time I have at home for now because these 4 months are going to fly by. I'm going to Australia completely on my own without knowing a single person there. I think that's the beauty of it though, it's an adventure and it's just me out in the big world, with God of course. I love that. It gives me a chance to go to a place with a completely blank slate and people will simply see me for who I really am and who God transformed me to be, but they won't have to see who I used to be.
Interesting things about Sydney:
- It's the largest city in Australia.
- The warmest month out of the year is January, which is when I'll be arriving :)
- A resident of Sydney is known as a Sydneysider.
- Sydney has one of the lowest population densities and highest living standards in the world.
"For you shall go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress; instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall make a name for the Lord, an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off." Isaiah 55:12-13

You are the most amazing person I have ever known.
ReplyDeleteI have never known you to blame someone else for your problems nor excuse your behavior.
You have always been honest and open.
Never have you criticized another person or cut them out off your life because of their neglect or rudeness to you.
It has been the most gratifying experience of my life to see you follow God's plan for your life. Each time you choose God and His ways you inspire and bless me.
Maly he bless and enrich you as you continue to choose Him and His ways.
His blessings and goodness shall follow you all the days of your life and you shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
I love you dearly and will always be here for you!!!
