How do I describe this past week at training camp?  TRANSFORMATION.  Transformation.  Transformation.  I cannot say it enough, so let me reiterate once more:  Transformation!
I have stepped out of my comfort zone into a brand new comfort zone and it is a truly amazing zone to be in.  I am so thankful to my beautiful Creator for reigning down His love and support throughout this week.
Never have I ever prayed out loud in a room filled with 200 people who are also praying.  Now there is a joyful noise!  Never have I ever laid hands on someone and prayed over them.  I have done that so many times this past week that I have lost count.  Never have I ever prophesized to someone…I did at camp, and I had multiple people prophesize/speak truth into me.  Never have I ever witnessed healing or been healed through prayer.  I saw a squadmate’s hearing return (he has worn hearing aids since 1st grade) following multiple time consuming prayers from out whole squad and from the entire camp.  He is no longer wearing his hearing aids.  And I was doubled over in pain from stomach cramps one night so squadmates were suggesting I ask around for some pain meds.  That’s me, queen of medication to ease any sort of pain.  But this time I chose prayer.  I asked a squadmate to lay hands on me and pray.  About 20 mins later, the cramps were gone, I was able to sleep and I have no pain the next day!  God is soooooo good!
I am a transformed, renewed daughter of our Almighty Father and I am so far beyond proud to share that with the world!  I have been granted permission from Daddy to engage in “Reckless Faith” for the next 11 months…and the rest of my life!  Oh, praise HIM!
To sum up my wonderful, crazy, overwhelming, confirming week at training camp in Georgia:  heat, healing holiness, hot messes, heart, hurt, home…that’s training camp.  Truth, tears, teams, terror, transformation…that’s training camp.  Fatigue, faith, fears, fun, family, freedom…that’s training camp.  God, grace, green, groups, gear, greatness, GO…that’s training camp.  And I am thanking God for every second of it!
