Nashville - Year 1
——
I have officially lived in the Nashville area for One. Entire. Year. 🤯
——
This past year has had some really, really good moments AND… some really, really hard moments.
•
My faith has been tested.
•
In ways that I never really knew I needed.
•
My body - physically, mentally, and emotionally - has changed and healed.
•
In ways that I never really knew I needed.
•
My habits and hobbies have evolved.
•
In ways that I never really knew I needed.
•
And my being as a whole has grown and matured and developed.
•
In ways that I never really knew I needed.
——
I think back on the person that I was when I first transitioned out of the Kansas City Season into this Nashville Season, and I’m like… “hmmm, yeah I was… something.” Haha.
•
I’ve always known that I’ve been a “late bloomer.”
•
It took me until I was 24 to figure out my career desires. It took me until I was 27 to realize that my life was my own (not my parents’) and I can do with it as I please. It took me until I was 30 to realize that it’s okay to not conform to the standards and rules of The Church (legalism), but to live MY life of faith in accordance to where HE leads and guides and to walk in the freedom HE provides.
•
And in just 6 months, I’ll be turning 33. The age where I think the next phase of my life will truly begin.
•
I’m excited to see where my career endeavors will end up. I’m excited to keep exploring my relationships with people and see where growth will develop in them and in me. I’m excited to dig deeper with the Lord and experience all that He has to offer in this next phase.
•
And I’m just excited to just keep living this great adventure called life and to walk into the glorious unknown with a heart full of faith, love, and strength.

Thanks, Jesus, for all that you have done.
