What a week....
Let's start with Saturday. Once I made it to Brian's and we ate dinner, I could no longer hold my thoughts, and we had a long talk and laid out everything. I went much better than expected...I laughed, I cried, and now that I know that within month or two, he will be leaving. The fact that neither one of us knows where he'll end up is hard, but I've been praying about it, and I know that if he truly is the one I'm suppose to be with...Jesus will make a way. Love is a beautiful thing, but to be loved by a man who truly accepts me for who I am, and supports me in everything that I do, is more than I could have ever imagined to have in a relationship. Sunday, we slept in and then said our goodbyes as he had to go to work. Nothing could have ever prepared me and anyone for what was about to happen the next morning. I didn't hear about the shootings at VA Tech until I got home from work Monday afternoon, and I was in complete shock. What if that had happened here in Georgia? What if that was Agnes? My God. My God. My God. I pray for all those students whose lives were taken, for the professors who did what they could to save their students and lost their own lives in the process, and to each and every student, faculty, and staff member at VA Tech. It is amazing how things can change peoples outlook on life, and truly make one wonder if God knows that the world is in need of some serious help. Another event to make me understand that life is a precious gift from God, and it is to be treasured...while we serve the will of God. I hope that the we continue to pray for VA Tech....I know I will.
The sun is shining in the midst of darkness...that's the power of God.
