Wow, I Miss...

I'm in an odd mood today. The weather is grey, flighty, and seeps into the crevices of my heart. Melodramatic? I think so. Last night at church was almost indescribable. I walked in hurting and walked out smiling and trusting Him. It truly was a memorable night for me, it was just emotional. I try so hard to keep it in and then turn into a complete mess of tears, mascara, and smiles when He's near me. I'm not nearly as courageous or trusting as I want to be, but last night He was reassuring beyond my imagination or understanding.

I miss my family today. We're spread out. My sister and her husband are in Florida, my parents are in west Texas, and I'm somewhat in the middle of them in Louisiana. Its a fifteen hour drive to Mom and Dad, and a fourteen hour drive to Leanne and Louis.

God's given me a family here. If you're reading this, you're probably part of it. I wouldn't trade you for the world, but I wouldn't mind hugging my mom and seeing my dad smile at me. Just for a little while.

Blegh, rainy days make me think too much...
