I was thinking of beginning this post by saying it is the beginning of a new year...and then I realized that the beginning has past as we are heading into February already! Where did January go? But, the real reason I wanted to talk about beginnings is because Tim and I are experiencing a lot of new things beginning in our life right now. As the new year rang in, Tim and I looked forward to the beginning of a new job for me, a new research group for Tim and the new friendships we would build.
God has blessed us with so much and we have really felt that over the holidays with our families and friends as well as continuing to settle into Davis. We are so thankful for the family and friendships that He has blessed us with. I know that in moving to Davis I have feared losing touch with my deepest friendships from home and not wanting to replace those with new friends. But God is so good, He has not only given me true friendships from Paradise that I know can continue to grow but He is blessing me with new acquaintances who are sisters in Christ and who I can build new friendships with to be treasured too! God has made us to be relational, there is no cap or reaching a point of too much, so build those relationships!
As we start this new year, we have been overwhelmed by God's goodness and his faithfulness to take care of us and provide for all our needs. Thank you Jesus!
