Is 59:19

So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him. [or, shall put him to flight]

Leaving AGAIN!

Howdy Y'all! Sooo...after a delicious experience in Guatemala at Camp Guamiski, I'm going back to camp! Except this time, it's right here in my home state, CO. I'm going to Camp Salvation in the Rockies for two weeks to be a counselor and love on some kids with Jesus' love!

Even though I had a wonderful time in Guatemala, Camp Salvation is my favorite camp ever. God has used it in my life in significant ways in the past, and through it I've made some very valued friends! I'm looking forward to seeing what God is doing this year there--what He's changed and what He's kept the same--what He's creating.

Every year we are a new person, "like the rings on a tree--some years you grow more than others." (Mom) I can't wait to see how God is using all the new people this year to make up his Camp Salvation body!

See y'all in a couple weeks!

PS that y'all is something I got from my Guatemala teammates from the South. :) Wouldn't take it from anyone else, but they were awesome!

WOW

Wow. I know I have "failed" in keeping you all updated about my experiences. It's just that Guatemala was so overwhelmingly....um, so overwhelmingly, overwhelming. I don't have enough words to say what words can't say. So I got overwhelmed and said nothing:)

YA.

It was AMAZING and AWESOME but those are words that don't describe it--they just say that I liked it and it was overwhelming, in a good way.

Which is pretty much all I'm going to say here. The people on my email list get a much bigger letter...and anyone who wants to be on my list need only leave me a comment with their email. If you don't want it published, just let me know. I screen all the comments before they're published, so I can get the address and not show it to the world.

That said, I'm looking forward to Camp Salvation soooo much! I'll be leaving this coming Saturday, and I'm so pumped! I feel like God has healed and filled me and I'm excited about getting to share some of Him with others who need Him just like I do!

Truly God is good to those who have a clean heart. Funny, He's the one who makes it clean.
