Well, today is the last day I spend in Mussorie. This afternoon we take a train to Delhi and tomorrow night fly for the states. There are definitely mixed emotions: on one hand I'm really excited to return home and see friends and family, but this has been one of the most amazing experiences of my life and I will miss soooo much of India. I suppose, though, that goodbyes and transition are just a part of life. In fact, you could say that life is just one big transition into eternity. As one of my friends wisely put it: "There are seasons and times for certain people to be in our lives. We yearn for those times to be eternal, but that cannot be satisfied in this life. It will only be met when that kingdom that Jesus was always talking about shows up in fullness with everything he promised."
Please pray for me and the other interns leaving that our journey would be safe and quick, that we would transition well back into American culture and customs, and that we would be able to find the right words to describe our incredible experiences to others.
