Farewell Colorado

Three months have passed since I've seen the Atlantic and, more specifically, Boston. I spent a portion of the weekend in Evergreen for the wedding festivities and took one last picture of my beloved Rockies before departing. Tomorrow I head back to my east coast home and life. I have mixed feelings about it, but God has done much in my heart this summer and brought me hope for my next steps there.

To be honest, it just seems a bit surreal to go back now. I wonder how it will be to return to the place He has called me. I've grown accustomed to Colorado (admittedly, this isn't hard to do) and will have to re-adjust to the city. Once again I leave people I love, a place I love and a life I love to follow the Lord. This time, however, I get to return to a familiar home, a dear community of friends and work that I know I'm called to which makes the "re-entry" easier. I think my hope and prayer in all of this is that I don't lose sight of where He has brought me this summer -- it was with great purpose and a place of greater depth -- and that I continue to walk in step with Him knowing that He will meet me where He has called me.

So, for now and once again, farewell Colorado...
