One Highlight from my Summer

July 14 2006




It's funny how summer has come and is going so quickly but the memories made seem to have a lasting impact on you for...forever!


This summer God has really revealed Himself and I am continually at awe with the fact that He still uses sinners like me to accomplish His mighty work. For the first time, I went as a counselor to children's camp in Ke'anae, Maui.


I fell in love with these kids.



In my small group alone, two children accepted the Lord and one boy recommited his life to Christ. 


God laid one boy on my heart and I prayed for his salvation specifically that morning.  To see him that night, one of the "tough" boys in the group, with tears streaming down his face as I shared the love of Christ was intense and is something I will remember for the rest of my life.  "I want Jesus in my heart," the boy said with tears."


Mark 10:13-16



13People were bringing little children to Jesus to have him touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. 14When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 15I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." 16And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them.
