God is Amazing.....

....And so was Youth Camp. I can say without reservation that this was my best year yet. I had such an awesome team! I mean, who in their right mind would put me, Em, and Sunny together? Poor Gen, the girl's cabin was not a quiet place. And the guys took such awesome leadership! On the field, Wes made sure everyone knew what they were doing. Jim led when the leaders were at their meetings, and Isaac did too. The rest of the boys were just joyful and encouraging to the girls. They made it so easy for us!!! Plus we sort of had a blast. It's not every team that can intimidate like us. And thanks to Isaac, I have Man in the Mirror memorized. :) In case you can't tell, I had the best team ever. YAH RUST!!!  http://picasaweb.google.com/KateMac93/Yc09#

But Youth Camp was way more than cheers, red hair, and the turquiose team. It was about God's presence. GOD WAS THERE at camp. He met us. Here's my story. 

I came up when they did the call for self righteousness, hoping to be met by God. My parents came over and prayed for me, but I still felt the same. I felt dry, cold, and empty. So I got up. I looked around me, and their were so many youth crying!! Dudes who I'd never seen shed a tear were bawling and being prayed for. I went to my seat, grabbed my bible, and went outside. I just feel to my knees and begged God to meet me. I felt so distant from Him. I wanted Him so much!! I was sobbing by myself when Sam Wallace saw me. She had been crying, and she came over and gave me a huge hug. I just poured out my heart to her, how I'd been struggling with devotions, security, prayer, distractions, the internet, everything. She shared her struggles with me, and we just prayed for each other. God used her to meet me. I felt so nourished and strengthened by that time!!! I felt so much closer to God. 

So the night ended on a wonderful note, and I got to see one of my closest friend's prayers answered!!! You know who you are. :) God is so good!!

Then the next day, I watched at some of my best friends were baptized. Becky, Emma, Martha, Jack, Jen, so many!!! I got to prophesy over some of them. It was such a rich time. 

Next in line is moving. We are moving this saturday. If any of you want to come out and help unpack before or after the wedding, feel free!!! Here's my # 610-531-5491 in case you need it. 

Please pray for God's grace as this is a stressful time for our family. ;)

Thanks so reading!!!!

P.s. In heaven, we will be turqouise.
