VBS
God has been so awesome this week. I don't even know where to began. I have been serving in our (read: Living Water) VBS as a counselor. I came into this, just wanting to serve God more. I felt so stuck just a week ago and now I feel as though he has opened a new estuary of water just for me. Despite being so wiped at the end of the day, despite only being able to stay awake for a small Scripture fill at night, and despite my lack of voice, I AM SO THANKFUL! My Papa is doing miraculous things in these kids lives. And when I say kids, I mean K-5th. True kids! Not only have the kids totally caught on fire for our Jesus, but they (amid plenty of other counselors) have sparked a new found passion in my own life. The impact of this week and all its people has not just restored my walk with God, but has gone so far past all my hopes, desires, expectations, etc. It is so funny how you can put your own personal quests and situations on the back burner for things like this and God will always bring them up before they have any time to sit at ALL! :) I am on a level of worship and love for God, which I never knew about. I, like so many other Christians, so desperately crave worship-the kind of worship where you can close your eyes, fling you arms out, and sing straight to Papa. I long for these moments. But more and more this week God is showing me this kind of worship exsists outside of the sanctuary or when there is no music present. I will never forget this week! It is truly an encouragement to see Olympia's next generation live for God and worship Him in the things they do. I think more adults need to take time to spend it with our kids. Their faith will amaze you
