What a Friend I've found
Closer than a brother
I have felt Your touch
More intimate than lovers
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Friend forever
What a Hope I've found
More faithful than a mother
It would break my heart
To ever lose each other
(C) Martin Smith
In the past week, I've had to lead worship 3 times, in 3 days at 3 different camps. That was a really crazy week. And this week, it has been non-stop action in preparation for camp! And next week, Go 4th Missions Conference. Then after that... 7 more weeks of holidays! :)
But anyway, I was leading worship at CCR the other day. Naturally when I was first asked, Amy wasn't too happy about it, as I would have to take time off from the leader's retreat, but well, Joshua gave me his blessings. But well, I did pray and ask God about it. And I knew that I should go, so I did.
And it was good that I went; it's uncanny that our camps are always so similar. 1 and a half years ago, they had a camp with the acronym MAD (Making Ample Disciples), and it was the same time we had MAD for God? Camp. Now they had a BB outreach camp, and we are having a combined GB camp. So interesting. Perhaps, what I saw was a glipse of how our camp would be like. What the atmosphere would be like and how the response will be like. But I know one thing will be different, and that is the GB girls are going to impact our YM in a way many of us would never expect.
But more than just being an observer, I've finally put the past behind. Now it's time to get on with the life that I left stagnant in one place. Time to open my eyes and see what God has provided and be grateful. Perhaps God has sent someone.
Perhaps we'll never know the day after tomorrow
Perhaps we'll always look back in sorrow
Perhaps we could in painful regret wallow
But we can never from yesterday borrow
