What does a year look like?

Ok, so technically it should be "what does 9 months look like?" but here goes anyway.

A year looks like
new relationships
new experiences
new tastes
new smells
new sights

A year looks like
long hours working
long hours traveling
long hours talking
long hours walking.

A year looks like
happiness
joy
sadness
love
pain

A year looks like
learning
growth
weakness
strength, not my own.

A year looks like
tears
laughter
sickness
health

A year looks like
something I'll miss and love all at the same time. I've learned a lot this year about myself and about God. I've also learned that I have a lot more learning to do. This life is a journey and I hope to live the best of it for God. I hope to be Ezra:

For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the Law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach statutes and ordinances in Israel.

Ezra 7:10

This is what I plan to do this summer. I want to come back to South Korea, to Dongducheon, to ACA, to Vision International Chapel, to my house, to my Korean family, to my room mates with my heart prepared to seek the Lord, to do His will, and to teach His statutes and ordinances in Korea and anywhere else the Lord might take me... please pray for me as I seek to allow God to work to make me look more like His Son.
