you may have noticed that i was done with people last week. just.done.
a large part of that stems from the winter. i don't handle it well, physically or emotionally. i feel like i have talked about this ad nauseum; sorry, but i'm not sorry. i am releasing in an effort to maintain some semblance of my sanity during this season. and it's helped, but this winter just happens to be a beast.
well, the Lord has a sense of humor.
this girl (the one done with people) got trapped in a house with three other people from saturday night through yesterday morning.
and it was really just what my heart needed.
as per the usual, it was not what i would have chosen. i was leaning toward that 'running away and hiding and waiting to slowly evaporate' thing. but no. there wasn't a place to run. i didn't really have much alone time or quiet space. we were all just kind of on top of each other for days.
the Lord can do some miraculous healing through community, you know that? i started learning about it on summer project ten years ago, and the lessons just keep coming.
my heart got a group hug that lasted for days. and i walked out of there feeling so blessed and thankful that these are my people. they love me and do life with me. so that's pretty cool.
