A Chapter Closed

What do you do when you finish a chapter in a good book? You read on. It's the same in real life: when one "chapter" of your life comes to an end, you live on.
The day after tomorrow, a 5-year long chapter of my life comes to an end. I can't say that I'm very sad about leaving what has become my home over the past few years, because I'm more excited to see what lies ahead! But tonight, as I was taking pictures and cards off my door, I couldn't help feeling a twinge of sadness. This chapter of my life, which I'm now leaving behind, has been the most exciting and awesome part of my life. But, although it's going to be hard, I'm ready to move on, and I'm ready to follow God's plan for my life. Once again, things are shifting around...but I can't say it's a bad move.

As scary and exciting as the days ahead seem, I have total peace that everything will be just fine because I know for sure that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose [Romans 8:28]. Let the adventure begin!
