Thankful, Overjoyed, and Miserable

       Seven weeks ago today I was on a plane making my journey to Uganda. I have these very surreal moments now and then since I've returned that make me this strange mix of extremely thankful, overjoyed, and miserable. Thankful for the love I receive everyday from my Lord, family, and friends (here and on the other side of the planet). Overjoyed for the experiences I had in Uganda as well as the small difference I was able to make. But miserable because of the longing I have to be back there. If you would have told me 7 weeks ago that I would be laying in my big, bug free, and air conditioned room unable to sleep because of my heart longing for my muggy and bug infested bunk bed on the other side of the world... I would have called you insane. It's crazy how God works sometimes.
XOXO,
Katie
