Ok so at first, not gonna lie, I was really nervous about training camp. I was like what if these people are weird and I don’t get along with anyone and I am stuck with all these awful people for a year. The very few things I had heard about the camp were just all bad news. I heard that camp was terrible, and if you can make it through camp, then well you’ll be ok for the race.
I am not normally a nervous person and I don’t usually get anxious about things but I was genuinely nervous. I couldn’t sleep which never happens, so that shows that I really was excited but also uneasy.
Oh me of little faith.
Camp has been a very good breaking experience and completely shifted my perspective of what is to come in the next year. God just broke me down and was like ‘listen, this next year is not about you and your fears and your inhibitions about this life choice. This year is about Me, and My glory and building My kingdom. So get out of yourself and let My kingdom come and your kingdom go.’
Ok. I will.
Also, these people are not weird and awful, they're awesome. They became family in a week and I am stoked to experience life with them.
