and my time in duncan is almost finished.

Just returned from Falls Creek, where God did amazing things! So amazing that Satan tried to stop us. Friday night starting at 9 p.m. one student every hour, for the next 12 hours got sick. (like puke sick.) I was up all through out the night trying my best to make those who were sick comfortable. I was so stinkin' exhausted, but thankfully didn't get sick! Just know that is how the week ended.

I had a trying week. I was tested spiritually, emotionally and physically. I have never been so tired at falls creek! I know Satan wanted my week to be about him, so I made sure otherwise. I learned many things this past week at falls creek, including controlling my emotions and not letting little things get out of hand. Everything is for the glory of God, even when I am tired. I think we miss that many times. We always say "everything for the glory of God." BUT we often push that mentality aside whenever we are tired, or fed up with those around us. I think it shows even more during that time how much you love the Lord, to be able to find joy during difficult times. I was tested to that this week. I was not by any means perfect, but tried to intentionally control emotions.

I was so thankful to get to see and catch up with my sweet friends on staff there. I missed them, and it was SO good to see and catch up with them! I love their sweet sense of humor, and their contagious joy and love for the Lord.

Miller Heights (my church in Belton!) is leaving for camp today! They will be there all week, I SO MUCH wish I was able to go. Please pray with me that God will do amazing things. I am expecting Him to show up and show off! I can not wait to see how He moves in the lives of those students!

Janelle is coming to Duncan today! Yip yip! I am excited for her to see my life here, and meet my precious Duncan friends!!

I need to start on my to-do list for the day!!



XOXO.
Miss you mamoo.
