almost done

i have one more day of TC. these two weeks have gone by fast and the days were full. i went back to the apartments most nights tired and went to bed a little early. its kind of sad knowing that i'm leaving this 'safe' atmosphere. you get used to being somewhere and when its time to change again you feel some loss, even though i know i dont want to stay at training camp forever. it is just so comforting to be around people with similar values and futures.

this morning we heard from a retired member who has been with Wycliffe for 60+ years. he had a great testimony of the way God has worked through circumstances and people to make Bible translation possible in the past. we had time this afternoon to talk about transitions. i'll soon be transitioning back to school again, so that will take some adjusting. but for the most part we were talking about going to other cultures and leaving home behind. i cant even say when that will be for me, its so far in the future. i dont even know where i will be going. i hope i remember what we talked about when the time comes.

im getting really anxious to start something new. i realize this is new, i mean something more permanent. the next phase. back to meyers-briggs personality types... =) we took that assessment a couple days ago. im as convinced as ever im an infp. one of the things we idealists do is always look to the future. i have a hard time enjoying where i am because i want to get to something new. this isnt always good. i dont want to be disappointed or burned out when the novelty is gone.

oh, if i dont have your address and you'd like to get updates about what i'm doing and what God's doing, (my ministry-that feels weird to say!) please email me so i can make sure i keep in touch!
