Bittersweet Ending

It's here. In a little less than 6 hours I will be graduating from college. Wow. I can't believe college is over. It's so bittersweet. It's really exciting to be going into this new place in my journey, but it's so sad to be leaving Nashville and the people I love. This has been the best time of my life. God has done so much in these last 4 months. I'm so glad that in the beginning I didn't listen to my own fears and not return to Nashville this semester. By sucking it up and pushing through, God blessed me so much. In the midst of all of my confusion in my first week back God just kept showing me how faithful He is over and over. One day I was only wanting to go home to Virginia and I opened my Bible to this passage, Hebrews 10:36 "You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised."
So I decided to keep in trucking and guess what? God totally blessed me with a million more things than I could have ever imagined. So yeah, leaving sucks, but I'm leaving on a great note. It was a great semester. The best I've ever had. The best roommates I could have ever asked for. The best friends I could have asked for. Just so many "best" things!
I'm pretty sure that crying will happen tonight. Unfortunately. I feel like I've been on an emotional roller coaster these past few days. Lame sauce. It's okay though. It happens to the best of us.
So now I am going to return to packing. Loads of fun. Until next time, when I will be a "real" adult with a college degree. Hahaha yeah right, I'll never be a "real" adult.
