Well I finally did it. I moved to Nashville. I have been living here what will be a week tomorrow. It has been fun finding places around me and my way around, but stressful and frustrating at the same time.
I have made a few friends. I have found 2 congregations that I am torn between. I like different aspects of each one, so I am not sure what I am going to do yet.
I also got a job! I start the first week in September.

I feel really good about the job. I think it will be a job I will enjoy as well as give me the opportunity to do other things that I enjoy such as spending time with friends and family, doing service projects and traveling.
Right now, I am trying to find a summer job to get me through until I start my real job in September. So keep praying about that for me.
God is providing for me in so many ways. He makes a great pilot, you should let him fly all the time.
Thanks for all the prayers and encouragement. I am slowly making my new home in Nashville, but Oxford will always hold a special place in my heart. See you at football season, if not before. (you knew I wouldn't miss it... :) )
Well I am moving to Nashville on Wednesday. People have been asking me if I am excited and I say yes, but I haven't really had time to think about that right now. Packing takes so LONG... it is times like this where I wish I didn't have so much stuff. There is just SOOOOO much to do!! and so little time!
The good thing about packing and moving is that God has blessed me with friends and family to help me load the truck. And even more exciting God has provided a church family for me in Nashville and they are going to help unload, if everything works out with times and stuff.
It is so wonderful to be Christian. God always provides for me even when I don't deserve it or expect it.
So next time I post I will be living in Nashville and hopefully settled in my apartment!! But most of all looking for a job in a major way!
Thanks for everything. I will miss you guys! I will come to visit when I can, especially football season!
Take care of Oxford for me!
Well as the day approaches, I get more excited but nervous at the same time. My dad asked me on Thursday, "What are you worried about the most?". I told him I didn't like the word worry because I am not suppose to be doing that, so I prefer the word nervous or scared. The answer to the question was finding a job. I have had several interviews, but nothing has panned out yet. I know that God is looking out for me and will provide what I need. I just need to learn to be patient, but at the same time that is something I struggle with and I am careful to pray for because he always puts obstacles in my way to help me learn patience.
But all in all I am excited. I have a new experience waiting for me and I am going to welcome it with open arms.
There is a congregation there called Brentwood Hills and they are already taking care of me, even though they don't know me and I haven't even arrived yet. But that just shows me how God is looking out for me.
SO NASHVILLE HERE I COME!!!
I will miss my friends here, but as the old Michael W. Smith goes... Friends are Friends Forever if the Lord is Lord of them!!!
