The Adventure Called Life Day 265...roughing it...

Good morning Scioto. Wow. I am tired, but so, so happy and peaceful. I love this place. I really hope the girls do get together more. I think Lisa and Jeff were a little upset that the girls are not coming together for team building. 

Services are going really well. Tonight was almost what you would have expected at a friday night service of camp. Altar call was immense and long. I can see that God is really moving, breaking down walls and filling the kids with his spirit. Its awesome. I pray that it continues like this, that distractions continue to diminish and disappear. Its great to see the girls engaging in worship and responding to the Spirit.

The Adventure Called Life Day 074...im dreaming of a white christmas

(sings) im dreaming...of a white Christmas, just like the ones i used to know. where the tree tops glisten and children listen, to hear, sleigh bells in the snow...

well, while this is true for me, I am reminded that there are plenty of people who do not enjoy Christmas. At first I was naive and thought, "how can that be? Christmas is lovely," And I then was reminded that Christmas is the holiday with the highest rate of suicide. The holiday all about the greatest hope coming to Earth is Christmas, how can this be?

I do not have an answer, but I do know that I am extremely challenged by this fact. What can I do to help? I am a mere college student, with too many assignments, too many relationships, too little sleep and too little time to balance it all.

today I had devotional in choir. my other post today is "objects of desire" read that to read what I read to the choir. I chose to do a dramatic reading. I had two little anecdotes to link to the Christmas season, and i think it worked quite well. God definitely dropped this one right into my heart. I was so excited to share it!
so read it. i was blessed by it, you will be too.
