| As I was organizing my books in the office today and unpacking various boxes from the move, I came across this quote, written my freshman year of college, found in Promis Keepers on page 46. "Modestly protects the true secrets of your body for one man, requiring him to invest in you life in order to one day enjoy your allure. It invites a guy to earn your virture. Finding love this way is a long and slow process, and it often seems like it is never going to happen. That's part of what makes it so sweet. Proverbs 13:19 'A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul.' It is the waiting that makes is so precious and that invites him to work to earn your heart." | | |
| So, where do I start!? FL camp was amazing! 3 girls were saved and God moved. We were tired when it was over, but God carried us through. After FL camp I had an opportunity to hang with some of the staffers and make frech toast and watch movies after sleeping in! Then we left for IN camp. The trip was a little interesting when the truck broke down for almost two hours, but praise God, we were up and running and got to the camp. IN camp was wonderful and the Brown and Douglas families are wonderful! grandma Brown made us an amazing breakfast every morning! The camp was fantastic. While we were tired and busy from doing a full camp with only five staffers, prayer and trusting in God lead us through. We were able to wittness 2 ladies come to know the Lord through the camp. God is amazing and I have made wonderful contacts through this camp that I hope to keep in touch with for years to come! God is really working and I can't wait to see all that He has planned! Oh, and I get to come home after my next camp.. July 4th!!! | | |
| Well, cheerleading work week ended today and now I am faced with the task of packing to leave for FL in the morning. I have not been able to update as much as I had anticipated due to lack of time and internet access. However, I am back on track and wanted to update briefly before I begin to be responsible again and get back to packing for our first camp. Work week has tought me a lot already, being tough skinned is one of them, but another is that God still has use for me. It is a horrible feeling to not know if you can truly be used by God. I can't wait to be able to post a video of demo and report all God is doing through the camps. I miss family and friends a lot right now, but know how amazing it is to be able to set aside my summers for this cause and to see all that is done over the summer. Here is a quick pic from the summer, then I have to get to packing! this is some of the group in front of a church on wednesday night. | | |
| Here I am...getting ready for summer 2009! I am leaving to start another adventure with CCA in two days!! Yikes! I am excited, but praying I remember all this material so I am on target with the summer and ready for work week. The last month has been amazing, and I am sad to leave home for the summer, leaving my family,church family and work buddies behind for a little while, but when Jesus calls, you go!
I wanted to post a few pictures from the last month before I leave...this is a practice round of all the posting I am going to be doing this summer. I am trying to stay in touch and not drop off the face of the earth for three months to those outside of CCA. so here we go:
 This is the cake I made for a friend's birthday! Another fun time in may!
 This is the view I had from our birthday seats in Busch stadium!!! Thanks again jason!
! this was the cake I made amber for our birthday! It was yummy!
Ok, that is it for the pics today, hopefully there will be many more posts to come with the use of my new camera and the summer full of cheerleading!

| just can't win. that is where I am at right now. If it is getting behind in Bible study or simply having to stay 2 hours late for work, when your feet were done 2 hours before that, that is where I stand. Yesterday had victories, but today was rittled in defeat. I watch others fulfill all the dreams that I keep inside, but am unable to say out loud. I break down, but tears never come. As soon as I find myself happy and at peace with where I am at, i am pulled down again into a sea of doubt. Why are so many doors being closed and so few being opened? I know i am being tested and failing. My hope is that this ends when 24 fades into the pages of history. My dream is that 25 is a landmark year, not for what I accomplish, but for what God chooses to do through me. May I continue to hope and dream and have numerous victories. And I pray for just a glipse of His plan, that i will know what I am waiting for. To God be the glory, and to my eyes, may they look up. | | |
