I am home in Rolla! I pulled in early evening on Friday, I missed home very much. The drive from campus was spectacular. I sang (loudly) basically the whole way, and then I prayed. Turning off music and literally talking aloud to God is one of my favorite things about the drive. I really keep on track and am thinking as I go along about what to say next. I feel joy, the true God-given joy that goes beyond comprehension sometimes for me. Before I came home I did make a stop, and Emily and Jeremy's house. That nephew of mine came running and laughing. Again I felt and saw joy from seeing people that I care and love so deeply. God's love has changed my view and the way I love the past couple of week, really days. It's an overwhelming love. I felt it again when I got home to my parents. I was tired by the end of the night (well it was not yet 10 when I made it to my bed). I'm glad for spring break. I'm so on fire and on a spiritual high that I get to see what I do with it while I'm at home. So far it's a lot of talking, really talking with people! My best friend put up with me for a night and we got to talk some. It is a great thing.
But at the same time I miss people. Everyone at Harding! I know it is ridiculous, it has been two days! Break is only a week so it will fly by and I'll be back with all those lovely people that have challenged me, loved me, and have encouraged me in my walk with God. I just hope that they all have a fantastic time as well, and we will meet again soon. So I am happy to be home, my heart is torn, and I'm okay with this. My love is spread everywhere now. From the best friend Tyler that is in New York (please stay safe), Azel who is all the way in Italy, to even Kayla whose only 15 miles away. And who is newly engaged to Joshua!!
Anyways, I'm just saying there is a lot of conflicting emotions for break, but I welcome it gladly.
