YOU ARE AN ENDLESS OCEAN, A
BOTTOMLESS SEA….
My God is
endless and bottomless. His affections for me never cease even when I walk away
or willingly fall away; He will always love me and will always be there when I
stumble back on my hands and knees.
So to update
you all, I’ve been at Training Camp in the wilderness of Georgia.
I’m going to be completely transparent here and explain my experiences that I
had while I was there.
It took me
most of the 5 days I was there to even adjust. I become uncomfortable in a
situation where I don’t know anyone. I become fearful of talking and opening up
because of the deep rooted trust issues that I have. However, every single
person that I met and came into contact with was sweet, loving, and shined so
brightly with the light of God. When I finally let my wall down and my heart
open I adjusted and started to reveal more of myself. It is a hard thing for me
to do, but I know this trip will break that trait of mine because when I am
in any of the nations that I go to I cannot keep a wall up when connecting. I
don’t have 3 days to get comfortable with people and adjust, I have moments….only
moments with these people to show them the love and truth of God. To let them
know that they are loved and worthy of someone; that they are beautiful.
The last two days of camp is when I opened up and became comfortable. The people on my squad are awesome. I thought I’d be the odd one out (like I usually am) but everyone was open and accepted me and loved me. It was such a touching moment in my life….dorky I know haha. So on Tuesday we all broke up into out teams and mine is as follows….Heather, Carolyn, Mindy, Carla, Karina, and of course me.
