one hundred

i have officially been in Europe for 100 days. and i have loved every one. specifically London. i am truly truly blessed. and so thankful to God for this amazing gift. 


i don't ever know how i'm going to leave this place without feeling homesick everyday. it really has become my home. i haven't felt so at home in quite a long time. yet, i have to go live somewhere else for a year and a half before i can even think about coming back. 


God has put a love for this uni, city, country and people in my heart. and i don't think that it will ever go away. i feel so attached to this place. when i think about leaving it physically hurts. 


yet, it comforts me to know that Paul felt a love like this for different places and people as well. he wrote to the Philippians that he holds them in his heart and says,
 "how I yearn for you with the affectation of Christ Jesus."


this is how i feel about the time and relationships i have made here. they will never ever cease. these people are such a joy to me. i love them with all my heart. i feel so privileged and unworthy to call them friends.
