Yesterday was the first day at camp without any summer camp
staff here and it was kind of nice, but at the same time sad and lonely. I
enjoy the quiet, but I also miss the noise. The summer went bye in a flash and
I think I will be reflecting and dissecting what all God did in my heart for
weeks to come.
Through all of the sweat, tears, lightening drills, Frisbee
and laughs I have come out of this summer with some awesome friends. I can
honestly say that I enjoyed and looked forward to coming to camp everyday, not
because of the work that was done, but because of the people that I got to do
that work with. It was such a privilege to be here this summer and be
surrounded by people that love Jesus and are willing and wanting to show that love
to those around them. The friendships built this summer have left me encouraged
to continue to teach the Gospel message and invest in those around me. They
have also challenged me to live out the Gospel in every area of my life, something
that I often lose sight of.
I am so thankful for the rejuvenation that this summer has
brought and I am ready to meet the students as they arrive this weekend for the
new school year.
