Okay so this is about a week old. I just never got around to putting this blog up even though I wrote 6 days ago.
It’s been a week now since TC ended. I’m still trying to process the experience. It was the hardest, craziest, most freedom filled and exhilarating week I have ever experienced. I headed to camp with no expectations. I left myself completely open to experiencing anything that crossed my path and I can honestly say that was the best thing I could have done. I allowed myself to experience God in ways I never have which in return has allowed me to be set FREE (in more ways than one)!
Things I’ve learned…
–it’s possible to go without showering for days
– I have 46 amazing new siblings (love you all Y Squad)
– chocolate never tasted so good!
– I can survive without coffee
– I can fit 6 people in my car J
(yes I was driving…I know, I know bad)
– We were made to live in community and not be alone and “independent”
– Real men do ask directions (this is for Liz)
– dancing in worship is so liberating
– prayer really does work (Thanks girls for praying over me when I got hurt during the women’s activity)
– God speaks! (literally!)
I came here alone but left with a family. I questioned whether God would show up and left knowing he speaks to me in all kinds of ways including billboards (story later to come). I was obsessed with germs when I came to camp and I left knowing that sharing is truly caring and foods is still edible even if it has hit the ground (yes I know gross!).
Words honestly can’t express what this week has been like for me. If the next 12 months are anything like Training Camp week God has a wild ride for me.
I know this is short but it was extremely difficult to convey the emotions of training camp without writing like a mini book so, if you want to know anything more about Training camp, just ask me.
