So today was Thursday, it was Gospel day at camp. This was the day during bible time we shared the gospel and give the children a chance to respond.
Every week the devil throws something at our team, whether it’s police chases or cars catching on fire, but today it was more subtle.
Our team was sick and being in a new state with 105 degrees with an outside camp does not help. Our team also was going through a lot emotionally.
The devil was trying to attack from every angle.
My depression got bad today, not during camps but after camp was over and the day was done. We were sitting in the car listening to music and it hit me like a freight train.
I thought “This is still a battle I fight every day and it’s okay to feel this way”
It was a hard day but there will always be hard days. Knowing God is on our side and we can trust in Him always is what will keep us going.
Even though today was hard we still had 13 of my campers at morning camp and 8 of my campers at night camp accept Christ or want to learn more about Him!
Praise the Lord! This is a reason to celebrate!!!!
“Be thankful always” is what was in my head all day. Even though I was sick and it was a rough day, I still came back to my host home with a roof over my head, dinner and a place to lay my head.
