Good for the soul....

and it's not southern cookin'!

It's friends.

Friends who warm your heart with a hello and a hug. It's looking into the eyes of someone who loves you and laughs at your silliness. Someone who says, "Hey, I thought of you the other day..." A quick text that says Hey, call me (*smiles*). Friends. Friends are amazing and I can personally say I love my friends. I was so excited to go home to see and hug everyone I have missed since moving to South Carolina. It was good for my soul to sit and chat with them... something not afforded to us because of the business of life. Man- I really love and miss you guys! Thank you for giving us some time during a fast paced season.

But something occurred to me last night as we sat preparing for the lesson in the nursery today- I was so EXCITED about going back to church and seeing all the new friends we have... I realized how much I missed them. It's scary and intimidating getting to know new people; finding your place in a new family. But y'all are making it real easy. You are trustworthy, fun, faithful and loving. I see God working through you and I can see His heart within you. You shine brightly and I love you for it! I am SO grateful God is knitting us together!

Y'all are good for my soul!

We just put our life in His hands and He is taking us through the fire, and we are not burned. Praise God for His tender mercies and compassion that He sees fit we are not alone.
