Commissioning


So it's my last day of work and I am kind of excited to be done. Two Little Birdies has been an awesome little place to work with wonderful people, but it's time to move on and fly from the little nest I made here. Today is my last day in the city. My roomates took me out Wednesday night to a restaurant called the BarKing Fish. It's a fun little place where they only serve a certain type of fish that actually makes a barking sort of noise under water. . . No, I'm just pulling your leg! It's more of an appetizer place to just chill with a group of people. It was a good time. After that we went for some amazing desserts at Truffles Bistro, and then watched one of my personal favorites... "the Notebook"... and yes I cryed through over half the movie. lol. It was a nice way to kind of say good bye to all of them. Then last night my college and career group prayed for me and commissioned me off. It was really encouraging to know that there is a group of people that are behind me and will be praying for me while I'm gone. I want this time away to really be one where I discover more and more of who God is, and his character. I want this to be a discovery time, but with my focus on just getting to know my heavenly father. My "theme verse" that has been on my heart lately is 2 peter 1:5-7 " 5 In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge, 6 and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness, 7 and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone."
