Week 8 - Last Week - Gods Amazing Love

So this week has been a mini camp week for my unit. Which means that the campers came in on Monday and then left on wednesday. Our last campers were good. I have a bitter sweet feeling about leaving though. Camp has taught me many things, but I am ready to move onto bigger and better things in life. Camp taught me a lot about myself and a lot about helping others/kids.
I have been asked already by several people what has camp taught me or what have gotten out of this experience.
It took me a while to really think about it and to really know what I learned and took out of camp. In the end I think the thing that I got most of out of camp or the thing that I learned at camp is, that I need to trust God with all my heart and not worry about things as much as I have. I was caught up in loan stuff for school, missing family and Evan, and tons of other things, that sometimes I feel like got in the way of me learning and helping others. I think this summer God taught and really showed me how much more I need him in my life than he already was. Don't get me wrong, I learned how to clean, take care of kids, and teach them all how to do crafts, and all of those are good things and I am proud that I learned how to do them, but thats not the most important thing I learned. I learned that Gods love is above all things and that I need to show that to others and receive it more than I have.
Thats going to be my goal with going to school this, to show others that God does and always will love them more than anything.

Thanks everyone for praying for me while I was at camp, and for the letters, emails, or messages. They really did make my day when ever I saw them!

I will try to keep doing this while I am at school too!:)
