A Great Week

Well, last week was my first week long speaking engagement since I have officially started this journey of being a professional speaker and writer. While it wasn't my first time being a camp speaker, there was still something very new and evolutionary about it. It went so very well. The week started off a little slow. I had to find my voice and get into the groove over the first couple of days. But then God's movement became more noticeable. I started to realize it was never about me, but about Him and what He had in mind for the campers over the course of the week. And it got awesome. Wednesday night was definitely the highlight. I found myself noticing that it was God who was doing the talking, not me. The words coming out of my mouth were clearly not my own. Towards the end a couple of campers raised their hands to ask questions. They began to ask questions like, "Why did God create us?" "Why did God put the tree in the garden if He knew they would eat from it?" They kept asking these provocative questions. I answered them as best I could. From there we moved into a time of song and the kids were really getting into it. We could watch lives changing. It's these moments that change my life. It's these moments when I feel like I am doing what I was created to do. It's these moments when I can see God the clearest.
