one week.

Hello blog world! I know, I know, I've been completely absent. I wanted to stop in for a brief visit and write one last time as Lacey Jenkins. I get to marry my high school sweetheart in 7 days. I am going to Mexico in 8 days. I am moving to Tyler, TX in 17 days. WHOA. It's almost funny because I am not one to  love change and here the Lord is about to change everything in my life, down to my last name. 
I am a person who looooves stability and control and right now I don't get either. 
I'm in a good spot right now because I am on the edge of an incredible adventure with the love of my life. And by the way, in case you don't know Taylor he is everything that I am not... he is so calm and even keeled, he has no stress, ever. He has no resilience towards change. He will charge full steam ahead straight into it and that's why he will be my leader. haha We are about to step off a gigantic ledge, hand in hand and trust that the Lords plans are good and that He is faithful, and we know that He IS faithful just by our relationship a lone. I am trusting that God is the stability I need and the control is always His.
These next 7 days will be hard for me to wrap my mind around but I simply cannot wait to walk down the isle to see my groom standing before me, waiting. It's such a beautiful symbolism of where I am with the Lord right now. He keeps reminding me that He is waiting for me. I Can't wait for this veil to be lifted so that I might know the Lord more deeply through marriage. 


 Signing off for the last time as Lacey Jenkins. See ya on the other side! .... of the wedding :)
