Camp!!!

Well I will be leaving for Jr. High camp in an hour and a half! I'm really excited to see how the week will go, we have a full group of campers (150ish) so it should be a great week. This week has been a week of final preparation, I teach on Thursday (prayer would be appreciated), I found out on Tuesday that I will be leading recreation time on Monday and Tuesday, and then I am teaching the Jr. & Sr. high next Sunday here at church. Oh yeah, and I leave for another week of camp next Sunday. But God has been awesome and guided me to get both lessons ready, and all the games are prepared. So now it's time to take off and have a blast!

I began reading "Ruthless Trust" by Brennan Manning last Saturday and will be finishing it up tonight or tomorrow. I have learned a ton about myself, and the lack of trust that I show God in my daily life. It has been very convicting and I would definitely suggest that you all read it. I'll finish this post with a couple quotes from the book:

"Trust is our gift back to God, and he finds it so enchanting that Jesus died for the love of it."

"I can state unequivocally that childlike surrender in trust is the defining spirit of authentic discipleship."
