More about Summer Camp

Okay, so wednesday we went to Oasis and watched the summer camp video and it really made me relive and capture more thoughts about the week. I just have to praise God for letting me be a part of that truely amazing time. I got to watch as God opened my small group girl's hearts and minds to his glory and I had a front row seat to the amazingness that is worship, complete and utter worship. I have to say God made me delight in him even more through this experience.

And, as far as being a leader, I am so glad I was able to do this. It has made me even more bold for God and I feel like I have a holy fury for God. I am changed for the better to be a bolder Christian through this experience. I have realized it is far more important to be myself and love God than to try and be everyone's friend. I think I came away with a much better respect for our God's name and grace than before and having such is allowing me to see sin for what is really is, ugly. I have had to cut things out of my life since then and can't be happier. I am happy knowing God is being glorified. Having a proper perspective on God is more valueable than I could have imagined, as Perry would say, "He is not our Homeboy!"

On another note, Noah has also learned to finger walk. Meaning he can walk while I hold his fingers!!!! It was so awesome to see that click in his head as he took his first few steps (with help)! I'll get video soon as I get new batteries for my camera.

The Lord is so good to us and we signed on our new place. So, now I am daydreaming about how it will be to watch Noah take his first real steps in the new place, especailly since that is where Gabrie and Addy took theirs! Such a great place to live, Thank you so much Em for suggesting your apartment!!!!!!!! It's going to be wonderful!

Praise for all this be to God because it all would not be possible without him. Even the air I breathe. Such a cliche but totally accurate.

Camps are always fantastic, I miss leading; hopefully when we get our life figured out we can get involved with youth again.
Now there's a deadline for the apartment, which means the bank's gotta move on their house - alright God!

Thanks also for being at camp and being there for the girls displaying a godly example of a woman, wife and mother. I know my girls look up to you and I praise God they have such a wonderful and godly example. I love you!
