• Chinese Heritage Camp and Eternity

  This has been such a crazy weekend for me. Had such an amazing time at Chinese Heritage Camp 2006. Got to see a lot of people I haven’t seen in a long time as well as I got to meet some new people. Praise God for such a wonderful experience. The great thing about this year, I didn’t have much work to do at all when I was up at camp. Now that sounds selfish, but let me explain. For the past few years, I’ve been a floater at camp. Meaning I go from group to group making sure things are ok and seeing if they need any help at all. Making sure they get to their class on time and making sure they get to the right class. In years past, I would be fixing problems and taking care of issues that come up during the camp. This year was soo smooth sailing. I was able to spend more quality time with the kids and groups instead of running around, jumping on the walkie talkies every couple of minutes trying to get things taken care of. The counselor quality has improved tremendously this year. The new counselors were great with the kids and who they are was really reflected in their actions with the kids. Praise God for such nice and caring people. God has truly blessed me during camp this year. By the things some people have said to me and through the encouragement I received from others. Not to mention seeing all the wonderful kids was just so rewarding. Praise You God!!! Hallelujah!!!

  I have a lot of pictures from camp, it was truly an amazing time this year. Before camp, I had a few prayer requests that I had lifted up to the Lord in regards to the camp as well as my life too. God has answered every prayer that I have lifted up to Him. I had asked Him to help me witness to people. I had 1 opportunity to talk to someone about God and that was a blessing. I had other chances to show people my beliefs and how I live my life and those times were answered prayers too. As for my life, I had asked the Lord to teach me something in and through all things. Something that really hit me while watching a movie. Crazy huh? Whoever would have thought a martial arts movie with lots of action would be able to teach me something about my own walk. Mixed with the other prayers I’ve had for myself, the Lord has really blessed me and taught me some wonderful things about my life, who I’m called to be, as well as how to walk in what He’s called me to walk in. The Lord has changed me so much lately that even I’m noticing things that I had never noticed before and it’s so wonderful that the Lord is doing these things.

  On the drive back, I had brought along a CD series. It’s a CD series produced by a well known preacher in Colorado Springs, CO. He himself is more of a traveling preacher, but he does have his own church in Colorado. Anyway, he had just written a new book that the Lord had placed on his heart and this CD series walks in line with what he has written. It’s a story about another place, another land, but it’s a story of judgement and what’s going to happen to us on judgement day. It’s such a powerful story that it just continues to ring within my mind. That really has a lot to do with my attitude and the way I approach things now. The things I say, how I treat others, my attitude towards everything and everyone. It’s such a powerful message, yet it’s such a wonderful story too. It has really opened my eyes to many new things that I have never seen before. The conviction that is on me as I listened to the story was astounding. It really helped me to re–think a lot of things the Lord has taught me and what others have taught me. Not to say they are wrong or anything, but just to see them in a new light and a new perspective so that I can serve God more efficiently and effectively. I would love to take my friends and loved ones through the same journey cause this series just drives straight to the bone. It’s like a 2 edged sword, splitting bone from marrow.

  God is so awesome and loving. There’s nothing I can ever do to thank Him enough. No amount of words could say enough. No amount of service to Him could repay Him for everything. No amount of good deeds or nice things to say or helpful acts could compare to what He’s done and doing now. I’m so happy that God found me when He did. I’m so glad that I wasn’t reluctant in choosing to believe in Him. I’m so joyful that I’m going to be heaven with Him for eternity. There’s just still a long journey ahead of me before I get there and things have just gotten a lot more interesting and exciting. Praise God for all His wonderful deeds and for His love, grace and mercy. Hallelujah!! Thank You Lord for choosing me and picking me to accomplish the tasks you’ve called me to accomplish. I finish them without You, but thank You for staying with me through it all. Take care everyone. Continue to seek truth and seek the Lord. For all who seek shall find. Good luck to everyone that’s in school. I’m still up because of homework and to keep a friend company as she finishes her assignments for the night. Trust in the Lord to help you get your work done, for if it had not been for God, I’d still be staring at a blank screen not knowing what to write about and having nothing to show for the time I spent. Praise God!! God Bless!!!

  With Love,
  In Him,
