So much has been going on lately so I guess I'll just do bullet points about what I consider to be the most important stuff!
- I moved back from Franklin, TN in early August. It was such a great experience but I'm so glad to be home. Never knew how much of a Florida girl I am at heart. I think it was more of the fact that most of the people I love are here....definitely had an effect. Overall it was a great summer. Learned a lot not only in the music business but also about myself and how to truly live independently.
- I had a little time at home between the transition of Franklin and Orlando. It was so great to just rest and enjoy spending a little bit of time at home. LaBelle has turned into this odd haven of relaxation for me. Time just seems to move at a slower pace for me there which is so not a bad thing.
- Moved into UCF! My life since moving in has been nothing short of crazy with occasional times to rest/sleep. Although I'm just waiting to get sick (but hoping and praying that I'll somehow avoid that) I wouldn't have life any other way. I so love being in community and not having much time to sit around and be un-productive. I'm working on the team for Freshmen Group with Wesley this year so that's super fun. We have such an incredible group of students and I cannot wait to see what God has for them this year!
- Night of Joy was great as usual. We saw lots of different groups (Leeland, Chris Tomlin, POD, Francessa Bat....., Newsboys, Chris Tomlin again, and that might be it) and it was just so great to have hang out time. Sleeping arrangements were much easier than last year and it was a great time all around.
- There are some things going on for which I'd love some help in prayer. Jaclyn and I are having a bit of a hard time adjusting with our new roommates. They are great girls, but we are just so different and lead very different lifestyles. I want so badly to be a Christ-like influence and to love these girls, but I also need to learn to have boundaries. We all live in this place together and we all have to practice some give and take. So, prayer for that would be wonderful. Also...I prayed a few weeks ago for a hunger for the Word and God (as always) was faithful in delivering that. Prayer that I would learn to better study and continue to have structured time to read would be fabulous!
So there it is...the condensed version of the past month. I hope all of you are doing well and can't wait to see you soon!
Love,
Brit
