Faith & CLIME

Posted: 17 June 2010 | Posted by Alyssa |

Every morning is like stepping out of the boat onto that stormy sea. Faith that there is a purpose behind today, faith that I'll keep breathing, that those I love will keep breathing. Faith that the sun will keep shining, God's grace will keep flowing, time will keep moving. Faith that forgiveness is available, hurdles conquerable, and people loveable.

I'm sitting at the lobby desk here at camp type, type, typing away. I'm working on our devotional for tomorrow night because, well, that's when everybody shows up. The Mountain Movers (Julie, Mary, Andrew, and George) have been here for several days but just spent the night last night. Oh my, I had forgotten how wonderful the camp mattresses are! I feel so weird being here, out of place. I know that I'm here for a reason this summer because God has swung open the doors, I just don't know why. We shall see!

I feel completely unprepared this year although I think that I'm actually more prepared than I was last year. I have a focus for my devotionals, I have an idea of what I'm doing and what will be expected of me, I even have a little extra money! PRAISE GOD!!! However, I'm living in fear that my spiritual dry-spell is going to ruin everyone's summer. Another thing that I've learned about myself this year: I am too much of a people-pleaser and an attention-wanter. Moving on, I'm also 96.5% positive that I broke a toe which, it could get a whole lot worse, I'm just dreading running around with children or doing team building activities with my middle toe throbbing every time that I put weight on it. Se la vi. I don't know how to actually spell that but whatever. I did end up getting a massage yesterday which made my back feel 10000X better but I am still getting a sharp pain in my chest any time that I cough or sneeze.

Well, I'll try to update this throughout the summer and document some of the happenings here at camp. We're getting a new basketball/tennis court this week so that's UBER exciting :) It's been real. Seacrest out.
