I am pretty much 100% out of the loop on what’s been going on here and on facebook during the last month. This is a crazy, crazy ride and things are happening way faster than I anticipated. Keeping up with the blog got lost somewhere between my best intentions and real life. However, as this weekend has proved to me, God is still on the throne. He is still exactly who he has always been and his love for me has never changed. I might feel extremely clumsy, terribly disorganized and unprepared but in my every weakness and shortcoming God is my strength. His love for me uplifts me and gives me reason to throw of the cloak of guilt and shame and walk tall. If the revelation of his love doesn’t leave you slack jawed then nothing will.
Before we were trying to keep up with several different readings. I know from recent experience that it is extremely hard to do when life gets crazy. I am not the most dedicated when it comes to spending quiet time with God.
The truth is I’m lazy and my priorities are out of line. The truth is I would prefer it if the pursuit towards intimacy with God was more hands on and electric. I want to be entertained, not dedicated. I don’t want to put real effort into it, I would prefer it if Bible reading worked like osmosis. I am quite honestly holding out and not giving God my best.
That absolutely MUST change.
I am going to study the book of John and I would like to invite anyone who is interested to join me. I don’t want to just read it, I want to think about what I’m reading. I will make an effort to post my thoughts and insights as I read and I would love to hear what everyone else is thinking about and learning as they read as well.
If I missed the memo and everyone is already doing some kind of group study I would really love to hear about it. 🙂
Thanks Everyone!
I am so excited to meet everyone at camp!
I can’t believe it’s only a few weeks away. So awesome. 🙂
Nicole.
