I shaved, then got shaved... kID'S Camp day 2

Tonight I was shaved with water, yes water. I was nominated to have the shaving cream squirted off of my face with water guns as I stood there with my face through a tarp, all while the shavers were blindfolded. Our team won the competition, of course, because the team next to me was squirting me as well as were my own guys. It all worked out in the end. Everything is good at camp as long as the girls lose!!

We had a great service tonight on day 2. The kids were challenged to discover God's gift of healing. Some were weeping, some were praying quietly and some just didn't get what was going on at all... welcome to kid's camp. There are always a few that just want their snack and to get out of there. It was a great night and a fun filled day, but it is time for bed so that we can all do it again tomorrow!!

God bless these little ones and draw them close to you and speak into their hearts!

Kid's Camp #1

Ok so we made it to kids camp without dying. The boys are helping me to write this blog to all of you readers. Noah R. says that the service was great. Sierra thought that the one guy acutually meant what he said? Michael thinks that today was "really great". His favorite part about the day was when we went down the big slide (inflatable) and the Obstacle course!! Darton's favorite part about the day today was the arcade and the pool. CJ says that ping pong and pool was the best. Alex said that his favorite part was when they knocked the tether ball off of the pole and it went flying across the playground! It was pretty funny!

Many kids were saved and rededicated their lives to Christ. That is what makes this so very worthwhile. I had the chance to share Christ with one of our kids and I was really led to give him my Bible so I did. He got choked up and really was excited. I love the way that God touches our kids at camp. I am expecting God to more cool things the rest of this week... stay with me!!

About Next Week...

I was working on my calendar this morning just sitting here in amazement of all the things that I have planned for the next few weeks... I will have to reintroduce myself to my dog at the end of summer!! I will be blogging throughout my adventures so hang with me as I keep you all updated as to where I am and what I am doing over the next few weeks. Beginning next Monday I will be traveling to Kids Camp and will be there till Friday. After that I will be leaving on Tuesday, July 22-31 I will be traveling to Managua, Nicaragua for a 10 day missions trip. Then I leave for Charlotte, NC on Aug 4th till the 9th for National Fine Arts. Good knowing you!! I'll be in touch!!

Just Thinkin'

I was just praying and thinking about our next few weeks coming up and I realized that even though we often feel so inadequate to do the work of God, He will still use us. It's in those precious moments where the Holy Spirit moves in someone's heart and they turn to Him to be the Lord of their lives that motivates and inspires me. We all have our passions and our own personal desires and agendas. Trust me we need agendas!! When God decides to give someone an opportunity to turn to Him it is a powerful, life changing, moment. We need to give people more opportunities to accept Christ into their lives, and stop worrying about what they might think or how it makes us look. WHO CARES!!! We need to get past our own selfishness and put the love of Christ in front of us to do His will!! The end!

Cool Gadget!

Just a quick post about some cool gadgets that I ran across this morning. (Nothing spiritual or magical contained in this blog)

This little bracelet connects via bluetooth to your enabled cell phone and vibrates when you have a call or wander too far away from your needed device! Outstanding, I think I will get one for my wife then I can stop fussing at her for not having her cell phone at the mall!! Great deal for only $49.99 at: http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/cellphone/9e31/

Yet another must have:

Palm-Z Mini Indoor R/C Airplane

A couple of these planes could make your next ho-hum all-nighter into the humdinger of all nighting fun!! Dogfights, mad dashes, and length of flight games could add to the excitement of having all of your friends together! Anyway, here is the link!! Enjoy:

Don't forget to see the video of the guy in the office flying the plane around as the master controller!! Classic!

Young People in Ministry!

As I sit here this morning pondering last night's events and God's Word speaking to me this morning I am drawn back to think about Timothy in the scriptures. God's young servant full of the power of the Holy Spirit and inspired to do the work that God himself called him to do. It reminds me of my own testimony of how one day at an altar God chose to call me into His full time service. Me... he picked me?? I still have to ask myself why, and how, and what do I possibly have to offer Him. There must be someone better equipped, smarter, more talented than I.?? Right God? When I think about it I am always reminded that God doesn't need us for what we can do, He wants to use us for what He can and will do, and there is a huge difference there. I loved having Pneuma from VFCC last night in our church. They did a great job, and it was great to hang out with precious young people called by God to serve Him! It is refreshing to see that God is still working in the lives of our students. Support our schools and support the work of God!! Don't struggle with God's call on your life, simply do what He has asked you to do!!
Blessings,

Back To Life

This is the time to wake up and get back to reality. Our kids this morning didn't want to get out of bed and get going and neither did the parents! Our home and our bed felt so good this morning as we spent our first night home after a week of sleeping in our camper! See our pics on my facebook page.

It reminds me of the loving arms of Christ when we stray. What an amazing place we can be in if we choose to turn from our sin and come back (home) to our God. He will wrap his loving arms around us and we can live there, protected by Him the creator of the universe! What grace he has for each of us sinners! Wrap me in your arms God... makes me think of a song. I will play it now! Thanks for reading, and leave some comments, BE NICE!!
