Do Widzenia (Doh vid-zenia) Goodbye Five months ago when I heard that I was accepted onto a team to go to Poland, I had no idea what God had in store. I had no idea what it was like to fly on a plane internationally. I had no idea what Polish sounded like. I had no idea what Poland even looked like. I couldn't even tell you where Poland was on a map. I didn't know anything about Polish culture. I didn't know that pierogi's could be filled with things other than potatoes. But for some reason, God put it on my heart to go to Poland. And to Poland I came. Through it all, God provided. He provided financially. He provided emotionally. He provided spiritually. He provided in so many ways. But now, I have to say goodbye. And it's hard. It's hard to leave people that God has brought into my life. It's hard leaving when you never might see these people again. People that made you laugh. People that were patient with your broken Polish. People that taught you words. People that told you stories. People that taught you how to make pierogi. People that climbed a mountain with you. People that worshipped Jesus with you. People that asked you a lot of hard questions. And even the people that you lived with. The people that you were on a team with. Saying goodbye is hard. Leaving is hard. Leaving is harder than staying. But this time has been a short season. I don't know if I'm called to come back. I don't know what is ahead. I don't know what God has planned for my future, but these people and this land has a part of my heart. Leaving is hard. But I'm thankful for this time that I have been bless with. It has taught me so much. About God. About myself. About others. About life. I wouldn't have traded this time for the world. Saying goodbye is hard. So here is my goodbye. Bardzo dziękuję, Polska. Thank you very much, Poland. Do widzenia. Na Razie. Goodbye, See you soon.
