Sunshine after the Storm

Brandon came home with a bronze medal from the unified special Olympics. I'm feeling a lot better about my camp assignment. Everything seems better in the morning after a good night's sleep and with the hope of a new day. It was nice to have some bloggy shoulders to cry on. I and the two younger kids are taking another turn with my mom at the beach. It was a different kind of Sunday for sure . It was in the seventies! We had a picnic on the beach, watched the surfers, found a treasure trove of creatures in the tidepools and spotted a whale in the distance come up and spout. I don't think that could ever get old.

  I was reading and found this most helpful passage of scripture... If God had commanded me to do all things I could do them. If he should say unto this water, be thou earth, and if I should say it, it would be done. And now if the Lord has such great power and has wrought so many miracles among the children of men, how is it that he cannot instruct me, that I should....(insert your assignment here)

So yea, if Moses could lead a million Israelites to the promised land, I think I should be able to plan and carry out a an overnighter for a few dozen girls. Thanks everyone for your helpful comments. Peace out from paradise.

You will be a wonderful camp leader. I would follow you into the woods, for sure. Best of luck!

I would have commented sooner but since you don't need me if you have the whales to keep you company...
So glad you are at a good place with this new calling! Part the red sea, baby.
