matthew 5:6 "blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they shall be filled!"

wow...
camp was amazing. unexplainably awesome...it was my favorite year of camp so far. the music, messages, activities, people, etc... just amazing...seriously... i can't really explain...it's just one of those things that you have to be there to truly understand... but let's just say that God truly was there...it was totally obvious... he changed my life sooooo much as well as many many many others...some people didn't care for it too much but i truly think if you went there with an open heart ready to learn then there is absolutely no way you didn't learn a bunch this week! wow...i just can't explain the way that God showed up this week but i wish i could...but as phil always says, "if you can explain it, then God didn't do it" very true...here is kinda what he showed me though...
-what worship truly is...it is a lifestyle not an action...i should praise Him in good times and bad and that it isn't just singing... it is praise...
-quite honestly, my attitude has stunk lately...and why? i have the most awesome thing possibly living inside of me! if that doesn't set me on fire then i don't know what will! because the Holy God of absolutely everything is inside of me! wow...
-also, how important His Word is...wow...brad the speaker said, "if you just read the Bible you might leave this world as dumb as you came in" yikes...that is soooo true...he said we need to be digging...not just reading...and memorizing...wow...God has created our minds to memorize soooo many things...think about it...how many songs do you have memorized? annoying commercials? nursery rhymes? phone numbers? so much...but we can't even memorize some very popular scriptures that we as christians claim is all we live for...wow...talk about convicting!
-also...how we try to fit God into this little itty bitty place inside of us...when he should be all of us! we need to stop trying to scrunch him up into this litte place and make him all of us!
-wow...just in general..so much more that i can't even begin to type here...just know that i had the best time of my life...it was wonderful!  so many relationships strengthened..most importantly my relationship with God!
-also many people got saved! how increadible! kersty, cassie, and matt...wow you guys are awesome and sooo brave! i thank you guys for giving God a chance...he really showed up didn't He? how amazing...keep strong and keep desiring to learn! God will sooooo bless you...we love you guys sooo much and i hope and pray you guys will keep coming to our church! if you need anything we all love you and are totally here for you!
-here are some lyrics from my favorite songs that we did at camp...it was a band called tyler dodds band...and they were awesome! so here are some lyrics...sorry if i cut parts out on accident...i can't remember all of the lyrics!
-rich or poor
God i want you more
than anything that glitters in this world
be my all, all consuming fire.
you can have all my hands can hold
my heart, mind, strength, and soul
be my all, all consuming fire.
and we have all we need in you.
all we need is you! all we need is you!
majesty finally majesty finally!

-into marvelous light i'm running.
out of darkness, out of shame.
by the cross you are the truth, you are the life, you are the way!lift my hands and spin around.
see the light that i have found.
oh the marvelous light marvelous light!

-you are not a God created by human hands.
you are not a God dependent on any mortal man.
you are not a God in need of anything we can give
by your plan and that's just the way it is
you are God alone.
from before time began
you were on your throne.
you were God alone
and right now
in the good times and bad
you are on your throne
you are God alone!
you're unchangeable
you're unshakable
you're unstoppable
that is what you are!

-and he set me on fire
and i am burning alive
with his breath in my lungs
i am coming undone!
you are my joy
you are my joy
you are my joy
you are my joy!

there were a lot of other songs too but those were my absolute favorite! they were the best band...seriously awesome!
