a tribute of sorts.


Meet Hillary.

I met Hillary last spring when she decided to bless us in Korea with her presence. We didn't have much time to get to know one another before I left for the summer.
However, since I've been back, I feel like we've established quite a friendship. One that I hope to have for some time.


Hillary is leaving Korea on Saturday. Her school, unfortunately, had to shut down due to financial reasons and so Hillary is leaving Korea four months earlier than planned. It's been quite a struggle for her, but I've been very proud as to how she's dealt with it. She's made the decision to go home so that she can be with her family for Christmas! (You can see the excitement in her eyes!)


She's also made the decision that she's not against coming back to Korea in the future. I'm proud of her in a way that she's being open to what God has planned for her life. She isn't afraid to leave Texas and see the world- and now, it's something she really wants to do! I'm very happy that she's going to go home for Christmas and I'm even more excited to see where God leads her in these next few months!

Selfishly, and I have others whom would agree, I'd like to see Hillary back in Korea in another month or two, but I know when it comes down to it- Hillary will make the right decision. She will listen to God and follow His will.

I'm so grateful for Hillary and her friendship. She's one of the most hilarious and caring people that I know! You will be truly missed! I love you, friend!

texts.

some of my fave texts that i have received while living in england: "there's a program on irish tv tonight called 'death or canada'. i wish i had the energy to stay up and watch it. i may have some tshirts made." "Worse." "Than." "Hitler." "That's bad news bears, my friend. I hope your magic shirts are keeping you warm." "Because we're celebrating Christmas time, leave your shoes out at half past nine. Leave them out until half past ten. Santa should have been by then. (i know what you're thinking, 'why is sarah in bible college when she is so gifted in the literary technique of rhyming?)" "You make me feel. You make me feel. You make me feel like a natural woman." "Should be fun on a bun!" "And stay off the circle line. It is an instrument of the devil." "I'd love a bottle of fruit loops right about now." "I've never seen a movie that...

Expectancy

We have the following Bible verses written on a chalkboard above our kitchen sink: Because of God's tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us, to give light to those who sit in darkness & in the shadow of death, & to guide us to the path of peace. Luke 1:78-78 NLT I chose to write out these verses for a few reasons. First of all, I like the picture it illustrates of God's mercy & how ultimately his mercy & light lead us to peace. Second, these verses speak of hope to me. They say that even in darkness & death there is hope! And last, it reminds me to live every day with expectancy. It says that heaven "is about" to break upon us; it's almost foreshadowing God's faithfulness. I've been thinking about this third point a lot lately. Expectancy. What does it mean? What does it look like? I think I've referenced it before, but I'm reading a book that's written specifically for people in a time of ...
