Just checking in.

Is it really already two days to the fourth of July!? It seems this summer is flying by, but at the same time crawling by. I've been living, working, and hiking with the same people for more than a month now and while many of them are great people, I must be honest. I miss all of you back home a lot. I think of all the fun that will be had in Pentwater in the next few days. One of the few times in the year that most of the family can come together and enjoy each others company. Someone have a piece of jello cake for me. That's another thing. I miss home made cooking.
While I dearly miss all of you, the Lord has been doing some incredible things. At camp, I learned about a carrying God that showed me encouragement, a God that showed me what it meant to be part of the body Christ. Here I have learned about a God with an unbelievable creativity. A God that demonstrates His beauty in massive vegetation, stunning flowers, glowing mountain ranges, and the millions of people made in his own image. A God that I must totally depend on while I stand in front of a small group of people and give a message that the Holy Spirit uses to do His will. A God I must lean on for support because my physical support is thousand of miles away on the other side of the country.
God is good. Oh Lord where are you going to take me next? As crazy as I may think your calling may be, may I be obedient in all things. May I show your love to the people I come into contact with so that they may see you in me. May I become lesser in order for you to become greater in my life.
