Did you all miss me? Of course you did! :D Don't worry, though. I'm back! Huzzah and such!
Oo... it's so nice to be home again! I am not feeling the greatest (healthwise) today, so any chance I can get to be home is dearly valued. The missionaries from Tennessee just arrived at my church last night, so I've been occupied with them all day today. They're a fun group. Their energy level is electric, which I love. I only wish I wasn't so blasted weary all the time. *sigh*
I just got back from camp yesterday afternoon. It was a blast! In all actuality I went because I thought I'd have a good time, but I got so much more than that out of this last week. I've discovered that I've been putting a lot of things before God. In my mind, putting things before God just meant that I thought other things were more important. That wasn't the case at all. I knew that God was the most important thing in my life. What I really hadn't thought about was that I've been spending more time on other, less important things than I have been with God. By doing this, I've made them more important to me. Right now I'm looking for an accountability partner. I need someone to keep me on track with reading my Bible and praying on a daily basis. I'm still contemplating a few other things that I heard at camp. I suppose I haven't had time for all of it to sink in yet. I just pray that I can keep this desire in my heart, so that my drive for God will not fizzle out like it usually does. I guess my situation isn't the typical. I'm almost always on fire for God. My favorite thing to do is to tell people about God. I get a joy out of knowing that I am saved and that I can share that with others. It's just that what I spend my time on doesn't exactly reflect that. I'm limited on what it is I can share because I don't spend enough one on one time with God. Camp was also great for the fact that I was able to hang out with some old friends and get to know some new ones. There's not much cooler than being able to just kick it with some uber-crazy people who love God. I've already seen some of them since camp was over, so I think it will be easier for me to stay in touch this year than it has been in the past. I'm all pumped out about camp. I'm going to miss everyone... *tear* Anyhoo, let's go off the subject of camp for now. When I got back from camp, I ate lunch/supper (lupper?) at Josh's house, and in no time, he was off to Colorado. :( Oh, and I spent a few hours at Cup of Joe's (a coffee house in Indianola) hanging out with a bunch of my super friends from camp. That was fun. I'm so worn out. I haven't much energy left, and I have this stabbing pain in my chest that I can't quite figure out. *shrugs* I've been informed that I'll be returning to church at five o' clock, which makes for a whopping hour at home! I think we're supposed to walk around town and pray for the backyard Bible club we'll be doing this week, but frankly, I don't feel up to it. I don't know. I suppose if God wants me to do it then I won't keel over dead, right? ;) Well, I'm through with my random ramblings for now. I'll try to post again soon. God bless you all! Seeya.
