kaden's at camp

I have run many camps for many years and now to have my own kid at one is crazy. I have been praying for him this week that he connects with God like never before. Also, that he makes some friends and comes home wanting to go again every year. As I dropped him off, I was nervous for him. I'm looking forward to hearing about his week at camp.

Camp

I love camp. Camp is a place where kids are forced to step away from the internet, texting, IM, facebook, myspace, youtube, video games, ipods, cell phones.....you get my drift. They walk away from a lot of noise and begin to hear God speak in their lives. This week God showed up huge! Wednesday night, I didn't even speak but went straight into the altar time. I love to see a kid get touched by God. There were a ton of testimonies of the cool things God did. I used to get real nervous before I would speak at a camp or convention. I have found the spiritual attack ramps up some as well. Once, I was behind the stage about to go up to speak and feeling inadequate. That what I had prepared wasn't that great and that there are several other "better" speakers. That's when God reminded me that I'm only the servant, and am responsible for only what I can do. God is the one who draws people to Himself, and He is responsible for the fruit. I never want to forget that I'm just the servant!
