so far but so close

i am far away from friends and family... but God is so good. i've been feeling at peace and love how my life feels like a normal life, as it has been for a while. a day actually feels like a day and a week a week... the days of thinking when the day would end is over. i don't think too much about my situation, just live life in it because there is joy in that when i follow the Lord.

i am far away from friends and family... but they make me feel close... they call me, they send me packages, they send me mail, they skype me, they e-mail... it's great to have that. but most of all... even though i'm so far away i even get a phone call from such a dear friend telling me she got engaged. i was so excited and so honored to have gotten the phone call within a day of it happening. EP i'm so happy for you. i'll be praying as you prepare. i love you girl!!!

so even though i am far... i still feel close because people i love and that love me make it that way. praise God!!!
