s I type this, I smile with anticipation of all that this weekend will be. I’m so excited to just get away from crap that’s been happening at home. Just random stupid things that are so pointless and immature. I like being down in the snow lodge with other christians; worshiping, learning and laughing together. It’ll be a much needed three days. My prayer for this weekend is that I would grow deeper in love with my Creator as I watch those around me fall more in love with Him. And even though I’ve only been with this youth group for about two years, I feel comfortable and secure being around them. I’m excited for all that God will do with this group of people. Not only for this weekend, but for the rest of our lives. He’s creating memories and a foundation that will last us a life time. It will remind us to be a light among darkness. And to go and change the world for Him.
I’m excited to drink hot coco and nibble on freshly baked brownies as we play card games. Or rock out on guitar hero. Completely fail at playing pool. Go run around in the snow. Wake up to smells of breakfast and chatter from the boys, who have walked across a snowy field to eat some food. To sing worship songs three times a day. And to form closer bonds with my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Ahhhh. It’s going to be fantastic!
In a kind of side note, I just wanted to say how awesome God has been the last couple of months. He’s constantly reminding me that he has it under control. And through all my indecisiveness and confusion, he has a plan for me. He had done things that I don’t understand in the moment, but looking back now, I am so incredibly grateful that He did those things to me. It shows me that he knows what’s best for me, even when I don’t. So, just a word of encouragement – although God might be changing things in your life, I can assure you that in the end it will be for the good of everyone. And that’s a promise from our Heavenly Father.
