Need an update?

Let me start out by saying that camp is amazing. I love it. God has blessed me so much through this experience and I feel so close to him. He is good. All the time. He has been teaching me a lot about selflessness, a lot about loving others because really who am I to deny them love? When it gets hard, it's Christ's love that I have to let show through me. I am also learning a lot about patience and a lot about my capabilities. I have answered questions this summer that I have never thought about or would never have known the answer. Amazingly, but not surprisingly, God provides that answer. He gives me the words to say when I am simply speechless. Oh man my God is amazing. Let me tell you what.

I've been home from camp for a week. Things have been different. My parents always said that when you leave and come back things are different. They were right. Hate to say so, but they are. So I've been reveling in this new change, feeling somewhat out of place. Life at home has moved on and I guess I have moved on too. Maybe changed is the better word. I've changed too. Who wouldn't? Although a month doesn't seem that long, it is. Life continues.

I was feeling out of place and nostalgic, but tonight was a good end to the week. It brought me back home, to comfortable, to normal. Everything that I hate about our group is everything that is normal and comfortable to me. It's everything that I really love. We loiter very badly. We are very indecisive. This is true. But this is what I needed. Being with my friends in that moment of indecision and craziness is what I needed. Oh man, it was good. I miss them.

Tomorrow I go back to camp. Back to my teepee in the woods with no air conditioning and a port-o-potty to boot. Believe it or not, I'm ready to go back and finish these last 4-ish weeks. God has much in store and I'm ready.

Until next time.
