Home Sick

WOW!!! The past few weeks were amazing!! I don't really know where to start. First of all, God is good and He is alive! We went on several different trips this month, working in a mixture of public schools and churches. In the middle of all that we took a couple days to just hang out on this island where we went scuba diving and other stuff. It was a blast! I cannot wait to get home and see everyone. One thing I have to tell you about is this youth camp we were able to be a part of. There were people there from 9 different countries: Canada, Botswana, Nigeria, Malaysia, Australia, Singapore, Indonesia, and U.S.. One of the nights I was given the opportunity to lead this group. I can't even begin to tell you how awesome it was to worship with the nations. I will never forget it.

I am feeling pretty home sick today and I'm ready to come home, but I know that it wont be long til I am back with all of my favorite people in the world. I am praying you while I am here and hoping to hear many great things that God has been doing in and through you this summer. It's so cool to serve the God we serve, because He is the One that is in control. He holds us together and cares for each of us.

I know how it is to get caught up with living, so much to where we forget what we are living to do. We are called to make disciples. We are called to be light in a dark world. Let the Lord lead you and guide your steps. Do all you can for Christ because he did it all for us. Serve Him. Let the world know us by our love, just like the song. Love God and love people. Don't just love when it's easy, love the unlovable. Show love because that's what Christ did for us. Fight the good fight. Keep your faith. Renew your mind with His word every day.

I miss you all and love you too!!!
I am praying for you all.
See you soon.
