AH, I’m listening to "Beautiful Things" by Gungor as I write this. The week before training camp I was reading a book about Biblical proofs. Something I learned from the book is this:
The book of Genesis describes the supernatural creation of man in these words, “And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being” – Genesis 2:7. Initially scientists laughed at this scriptural account, but after a CENTURY of scientific examination of the elements within the human body, scientists discovered that clay and earth contain EVERY SINGLE ELEMENT found in the human body. Every element found in us exists within the soil! It is proven, He makes beautiful things out of the DUST. “Beautiful Things” was a song played over and over at camp, and I view it as the solid rock that somehow exploded everywhere, permeating through our souls, creeping into our minds, taking over our week. Reading this fact from the book just to worship with those lyrics a few days later was not a subtle act of God, but a demand from Him to listen intently and open extremely. Love it.
It's quite the task to explain the most Spirit-filled parts of training camp the way I wish. A description would literally be beyond my range of vocabulary:
1 Peter 1:8
Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with
joy that is inexpressible
joy unspeakable
joy so great that words cannot tell about it
and filled with glory.
That’s all for now.
