CO part 1

I have been at camp for about 6 days now...

And
It
Is
AWESOME

For the first session i have the oldest boys (17 year olds) and they are crazy. We have late night coordinated dance raids, mission impossible prom night, techno raves with strobes, and have formed the royal order of the man bear pig club. The absolute craziness of the kids has gotten me past being tired, and the spiritual maturity they possess has led to enourmous growth in me already.

You think of a camp counselor, and you assume its a student babysitting kids. But, i get to hang out with a solid group of young men, most of which go to private school and studied philosophy and theology... and receive payment for it... ridiculous

Camp is exactly where i need to be, and i wouldn't trade where i am at for any place in the world. My motives for coming to camp were intrinsically selfish (wanted to come to camp for my own growth), but I am realizing now that God's will is being done, and that he has prepared me to step into this role. I was nervous about it all before i came, now... i just dance.

My patience is growing immensely, and my trust in God's perfect plan is being confirmed... Camp is a revolutionizing my being, and this is something i needed... that was the selfish reason i had for coming in the first place. God has the funniest ways of answering and revealing his plans for us...

anyway, i wont read back over this, so forgive the grammatical errors, and the rants...

I love all 4 of you who read this.
