Just 7 months ago, I was done; I wanted out of Uganda; I was burnt out. Funny how time can change so many things. I'm so thankful for the last 7 months as God has shown me some amazing things through this last stage of my time in Uganda. There's so much to share about what God has and is continuing to show me, but for now, I'm preparing to leave a place I called home for 3 years.
I knew it was going to be tough leaving this place, but I didn't realize the impact that I've had on so many different people during my time here. God allowed me to be blessed over the last few days to see how much I was appreciated here in Uganda. In a few hours I'll be boarding a plane that will begin a journey home, but it is bittersweet. Though I know I'll have family anxiously awaiting my arrival at LAX, I also have family in Uganda that is very saddened by my departure.
One thing God has showed me during the last few weeks when I was often tempted to stay here in Uganda is that it would be an easier decision to stay and continue my comfortable life here, but He has called me back for a reason. Not quite clear on that reason yet as I continue to seek employment opportunities, but I have peace that it is His perfect plan. So as I leave pray for the kids here in Uganda that I am leaving and pray for me that God will continue to grow me and shape me.
