Welcome to my wonderfully average life....yes and I'm here to blog about it. I may share ways I save money, super duper easy recipes, or just a good rant every now and then. Through it all I know this...I am in desperate need of Jesus every day...some days I recognize that more than others. So join me on my good ol' ordinary journey through life...maybe we'll have a good laugh (and cry) along the way.

I was just reminiscing about my times with TimberBay. I just went on the web site and memories flooded my mind. I can't help but get emotional. It was one of the scariest and most exciting times in my life. God had yanked me right out of pretty much every comfort zone I ever had to be apart of this amazing ministry. I remember realizing that is exactly where I wanted to be, completely out of my comfort zone. That's how I knew God was doing the work. I miss the kids, I miss Paul, the director who was like a dad to me. Wow. I remember my first night at camp. I was so terrified and nerve-wracked that I actually got sick, laying in my top bunk because I was too chicken to assert myself with the often times intimidating teenage girls. I laugh about that now. God was really using me there. And not just for the girls, but He was showing me so much. I miss it. I really do. It was a part of my life I will always cherish. It was the first time that I got off of my butt, stopped being lazy, stepped out of myself and really listened to the Lord. It was amazing.

sounds like you might have to go back! Keep open My Dear, God my just be speaking!!
hey jo-jo...
it's nice to think about times in the past, huh? BUT, we serve Him now...I think back to my Bible school days, and often think how passionate i was then...different times, different experiences...
It's a good reminder that our faith is based on truth and not on feeling...
I read through Psalm 19 this morning, what an awesome refreshment to my parched soul!
love you.
