My last week at camp was filled with humitity, laughter, triumps, tears, and hugs. Yesterday was the best day at camp I've ever had. Our team won Color Wars. CW is a week long battle between five teams with competition and laughter. Since our team won, Mike Lang (the assistant Lake Village director) asked for one of the counselors from our team to come up and to sign the unifying shield. We elected the Pathfinder cord, Ben, to go up. As Ben starting walking, Mike said that I should come up and sign it. He told the whole village it was my last week and that I would be missed. I was in shock. Never ever have I felt so valued at camp as a counselor. It finally clicked that I did what I came to do this summer: I've made a difference on the kids and the village as a whole. :)
I gave my heart to God this summer. He has taught me so much and proved that He indeed has a sense of humour. My time at Camp Tecumseh isn't over. Somehow I know God will bring me back there next summer in some shape or form. In Summer 2009, I chose to work on trusting God to do His will. My life was turned upside down and although there was pain, He has shown me just how much He will give in return. It's a beautiful thing. God has placed so many new friends in my life. Nothing has ever felt this right. I'm not nervous about moving out to SoDak anymore. I know that I'm on God's path and in Him, I'm enough.
