Day off..

Today is our day off. With eleven days of training, they give us an entire day off to do whatever we want. Which is amazing. For me that meant sleeping in until 10:15, getting ready, getting a pedicure, and then shopping. Right now I am being responsible and getting my laundry done. And I am enjoying just some alone and quiet time. It is great. Right now a bunch of the team is playing some basketball, so in a while I think some of us will go watch them.. it will be good times.

This time next week, we will have campers! That is such a crazy, yet exciting thing to think about. I cannot wait. As I start this summer I have a few things I could use some prayer about...energy, patience, intentional ministry, good health, good attitude and above everything else that God will be able to fully use me for His glory. 

Last night our staff had a time of worship together. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. At Samford they have this beautiful Chapel and we got to have worship in there last night. It is absolutely gorgeous. We sang some songs, we read through some verses and then we just sat and thought, and prayed and sang some more. It was so amazing, and exactly what I needed in that moment. The entire time we were in there, my thoughts were about heaven. About me someday going to heaven, praying for those in my life who don't have a relationship with God, and also just about how it is up to us as christians to go and spread God's word and love to those who don't know Him. It left me feeling so lucky to be worthy of something life heaven... I'm a sinner, and despite that, I get to spend eternity with God. 

This is such a wonderful and exciting thing that He has allowed me to be a part of, and I am so thankful for that. Well I think I am going to go call my parents...
