the challenge

the last 2 weeks have been challenging. good, and busy and challenging. dying to self is hard. and i've come to realize that i'd rather scrub horse poop off of rubber stall walls for 6 hours a day than go door-to-door raising money for 8 hours. maybe it's the farm girl in me, or maybe i'm not quite the people-person i thought i was.

i move up to the camp in one week - that means only one more week of canvassing!!! that's exciting :) meanwhile, i am also leading a worship team for our upcoming young adults service on may 27th!!! that has been a challenge as well, but rewarding, because i've been working with some incredible musicians and friends. i was with my family this weekend and that was especially nice.

another challenge for me has been devotion to Christ. i find myself enjoying him, trusting him, but not devoting my life to him. passion is not momentary, it only becomes passion when it is there for the long haul. so the question then is, am i really passionate about Christ?

one day, you will be happy devoting your life to him. and this desire will come naturally. Just trust him...He loves you more than you know. And it just a happy feeling I'll tell you. :)
