Back In Action

I'm baaaaack! Internet is such a wonderful thing! :)
Our week of camp went well and 48 children got to experience five days of fun and relaxation away from their hard lives, lonely homes, and needs. Over the next couple of days, I will be recalling a few of the defining moments from my week at camp so for tonight, I just want to thank you for all of your prayers.
During camp, there were a few times when I got frustrated with one of the girls and there were times I was simply exhausted physically and it was during those times that all your prayers uplifted me before the throne of God. Sometimes in life, our perspective can get too narrow and we miss the bigger picture of what God is doing in our lives and in the lives around those around us. I confess, there were times at camp when I was so focused on the miniscule issues that I lost my focus on God's purpose. However, those times are passed and now that I'm sitting here, the annoyances and irritations seem so small in the grand scheme of what we were doing in the lives of those kids. Sure, it was hard to deal with everyone's "human-ness," (especially kids, if you know what I mean) but I am happy that I got to be apart of what happened this week.
So for all those prayer warriors out there, thank you, thank you, thank you! You have no idea what your prayers have done.
