Last Full Day in USA

{Ashley Monogue Photography}

Wow. Today is our last full day in America.
A couple of nights ago my parents blessed us
by having over 60+ friends & family.
We got to spend the evening laughing, reminiscing, & praying together.
It was perfect.

Spending time with the people
who watched me grow up brought back so many memories.
Looking back over the past 4 years I am blown away by God’s goodness.
He took me, a broken, selfish, lost sinner
& chose to make me new.
I am no longer the old Chloé who openly lived in sin.
I am new.
I am forgiven.
I am free.

I now choose to walk with Jesus.
I look at verses like 1 Corinthians 11:1
& pray that one day I can confidently proclaim it.
“And you should imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.”
In my case this verse would read
‘stumble with me as I stumble after Christ.’

I am still a broken sinner.
Saved by grace.
But I am thankful that we serve a mighty God
who sees the bigger picture.
I pray that what I do today
brings me closer to where who I want to be tomorrow.

I will probably be a little MIA while we move the next few days.
We leave Dallas tomorrow for our 2 day trip to Malaysia.
We will then spend 5 days in Penang, Malaysia
before heading up to our new home in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand.

If you happen to think of us, please say a prayer!
Excited to keep you all updated!!
So thankful for each and every one of you!
