I haven’t been able to figure out why I’ve been so exhausted and just run down the last few weeks. I’ve never had a summer where i’ve just felt so mentally and physically tired.. I was thinking about it, and then I realized that I haven’t been in just one place for longer than a few days. So far this summer, I went from Chattanooga to Nashville to Boston to Nashville.. to Iowa (and everywhere in between) to Nashville to Roanoke.. to Charlotte… and then tomorrow, I’m driving 8 hours back to Nashville, and then on Sunday driving 10 hours back to Iowa. Driving is really really tiring, and it’s getting old.

On the bright side, i’ve been able to spend a few days with my girlfriend and her family which has been good. Not long enough, but I guess that’s just part of this stage of life. I’m trying to get excited about heading back up to Iowa to work for the rest of summer. I’m not looking forward to saying goodbye to my girlfriend and my family for another 2 months.

God is faithful though. I read in Hebrews this morning – Hebrews 2:1-3 is especially insightful and something that I needed to hear today. God is giving me strength and patience for these days.
