*Heavy Sigh* Camp is over (and the funny thing is here I am sitting in the Indian Hills Camp store, working). Mexico was AMAZING!!!!! It is hard to see it as a missions trip because it is so close to home, but a tangible reminder that everywhere is a mission trip, including home. When I sat on the beach Thursday night and pondered what God wanted to tell me, the sounds were divine. The dolphins surfing the waves reminded me of His creativity. The waves, of His consistency (as well as the Spice Girls song that was stuck in my head for the first 15 minutes. Don't laugh! It was terrible. But the lyrics, "If you wannabe my lover, you have to like my friends, forget my past... There is conditions to these) But God's love is unconditional. The worship song that struck me the most (and was played almost every Wednesday thank you!) was Lord of All Creation. It was perfect "Early in the Morning, I will celebrate the Light. When I stumble in the darkness, I will call Your name by night." Especially when singing this at 7:30am and feeling the bright sunlight warm your face. So this song was what followed the Spice Girls on Friday morning, sitting on the small cliff, watching the surfer try continuously to catch the minimal 1 foot swells. But he continued trying and eventually rode one. This is what God is to me. He wades the waters of my heart, chilling on His board and constantly paddling for the slight swells until I finally get it. Perhaps it will amount to a beautiful 10 foot tube or maybe He will ride the foot high cap until it dies a few yards after. Whether one or the other the point is this, He waits for me and will be there always. Like another worship song sung often this summer... "Though my world may fall, You'll never let me go." NEVER! He will sit, paddling and paddling, until I finally get it.
