If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain; If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain, Or help one fainting robin Into his nest again, I shall not live in vain.
So, camp is over, once again, fourth year and I've still got it! This summer was especially good. I had some good kids, I had some bad kids, I had some really bad kids, but then I had some awesome kids! I'm glad it's over, and I will look forward to next year. So many lives were changed this summer and it was amazing to watch.
I have 22 days until college starts! Yikes! I am excited, I want to learn! So it should be interesting. I know a couple people and I'm sure I'll meet more, and I can always hook up with Ron! So I am excited.
Jordan leaves on Sunday .

| Well...................
What to say? I just got home from one of the most stressful weeks of my entire life. That's right ladies and gentlemen.................Camp Hope Haven!!! I think at this point they give me the worst kids because they know I can handle it. I had the most hyper ADHD child that I have ever met in my life. I also had a girl with a heart problem. I am drained of all physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual energy. As soon as I got home this evening, it was all about crying and eating ALOT of comfort food. Thank God for Ron!! Along with being our totally awesome lifeguard he is like a rock, and I know that Dani and I would not have made it without him. And now I have three weeks before I have to go back.
I know many of you may wonder why I put myself through this torture year after year. Well, I will enlighten you. This week, six of my campers accepted Jesus as their Savior. Last night (Thursday) at chapel I was counseling two girls who had come forward, and they were so sincere. I could see the longing in their eyes, they wanted Jesus to save them. I listened as they prayed, and saw their faces afterwards...the joy in their eyes in the knowledge that they were a part of God's family, and that He will never leave them...........I'm telling you it is priceless. It makes all the crap from the rest of the week 100% worth it. And that is why I go back to camp every year...because the Lord's work is so evident there. It has changed who I am, and prepared my for so many things that may come in life. But really it's about the kids. Even the bad ones, I love them and I want them to know that Jesus loves them.
Mark 10:14 He said to them "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
Proverbs 22:6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.
I love you all
