Praying for time to hurry...

“Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.”- Colossians 4:5-6

As I sit on my bed writing this to each one of you, I can not even begin to express how excited I am. Just three weeks from today, myself and the rest of the 2009 CCC Staff will be at Camp Loywhite beginning our staff training. Three weeks...21 days...still so long away. I have a bittersweet feeling about staff training. No words can say how excited I am for this summer, but at the same time staff training is the closing of life as I know it. I will take my final exam the day before staff training, I will play in my final band concert after nine long years, I will give my graduation speech, but most of all I will be saying good bye to the friends I have called my family for the past 13 years. The class of 2009 is very close at my high school and sadly it is starting to hit me that after our graduation, we will never all be together again.

However, I don't want to turn this post into a sappy sad post. :D THREE WEEKS NEEDS TO HURRY UP!!!!! I want to see everyone I already know and love on staff, and I want to meet those I have yet to meet. I want to know what camp I'm at and who my campers are. But most importantly, I want to see God work wonders not only in the lives of those we help but in the lives of campers. Our God is such an amazing God that I can not wait to see how he works on everyone this summer.

I wish everyone the best of luck this next few weeks on exams or at your jobs (for those of you already in the real world). If you havn't already, let me know what camp you are at this summer and what week by posting it on the groups page!

Godspeed,
