Cloudy Days

It's amazing the difference in my attitude and the attitudes of those around us when the weather is good. It has been so hot here which just takes energy and patience out of us, but today it's cool and cloudy and threatening rain, which we are all praying for. There has been much drama here lately. I hate drama. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing, but with all of the drama I have just become care-free and relaxed. My campers are happier with this, and I have less stress on me which is wonderful! I was reading back on bits and pieces of what I have read and it's really encouraging to me to know how focused I was and then I look at myself now and that's not where I am, but it's where I need to be. So I ask you again to pray for me to focus first on God, then on my girls, and last on me. It's been about the opposite lately and have been feeling so weak. I have been feeling myself say that my body is weak and my spirit is hungry. God is feeding me some because He feels my desire but I would absolutely love to sit in a church and listen to a pastor give a sermon. Just to relax and be truly fed by our Lord, even to the point of tears, that would be so unbelievable relaxing and uplifting.

I have a little more than two weeks until I go home to see family and friends and brothers and sisters in Christ, those of you who have been there for me through this endeavor. I am so encouraged by you all and I love the relationships that have grown stronger over this time.

In the past two weeks a couple of girls have arrived that I have been able to form decent friendships with. I'm really excited about that and I hope that those relationships will last. It's encouraging to me to see God proving to me that I'm hear for a reason, even in the toughest times.

I have a lot to do before classes start and I am very behind in my sign language, but hopefully I have kept to most of it and will be able to remember and catch up quickly.

Thank you all for everything and please keep me and all the girls in your thoughts and prayers throughout the next two weeks.

I love you all.
