it was so much better...
So, this weekend Chase Willsey came up to New Hampshire on a business trip to spread the word about his organization, Sower of Seeds within our church. It was so good to have him up here and hear about his life, his wife, and his passion. I forget what it is like to have people who know Jessa beyond our life at the church. I forget that there are people like me, I forget that there are people who like me for me, not what I do (or what I can do for them). Having a good friend up here was in a sense detrimental, because it made me realize how alone we are. It made me realize that New England is getting to me...and maybe not in a good way. I am forgetting how to have true, honest, deep conversations. I am forgetting how to be optimistic... I am not telling you guys this so that you can feel bad for me (what is that going to change?), I am telling you so that you can pray for us. Adam and I are lonely and becoming worn out. Pray that we are fed and feel full, pray that we can see our friends (both new and old) more often, pray that we can know Christ more. Thats all and thanks for praying.

I can definately identify with that feeling Jessa. I've only lived here for 11 months and its been such a struggle to find true friends again. It seems like you can only get so close with people in a short amount of time. It has, however, made me appreciate the deep friendships I do have. some people never even have a chance of that. I'll be praying for you guys, I know its a struggle. but know i'm only a phone call away dear one!! :) Love you!
