Here I am in Sugar Hill, Georgia chilling at my breh’s, Steven Buffington’s house and I realize something. TRAINING CAMP IS TOMORROW!!! XDDDD This is so crazy! AAHHHH!
I drove down here yesterday and met a few more of my squad mates. We are just hanging out at Steven’s house and going to local places like the Georgia Mall, Walmart, and REI. As soon as I got here I felt at home. It is so like God to give me an environment like this. The five other people that are here with me now are amazing. We get along really well and it’s like we’ve been friends for years. This is all God.
I realize that this next week we’re going to have to overcome challenges and do things that we do not necessarily want to do. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m not going to fight it. I’m going to embrace all that God has to offer me this week. Why? Because this new family of mine needs me to…just like I need them to. This is a dying process…that’s what it’s all about. Dying to self! Sounds fun…right? I find it so crucial for me to do this. Because ultimately, my thoughts and opinions don’t matter. The only thing that matters is what is of God. So that’s what I’m going for. And right now that looks like embracing this awesome Jesus freaks with my entire being. Truly loving them as Christ loved.
This is my life…this is our destiny….to GO….to LOVE…and to BE LOVED!
