after waking up from his 5hrs nap, Henzy David awakes to find one of his candy canes infested with ants. darn, but other than that he finds his ant-venom filled portion of left index finger very irritating.
just came back from camp this week, gosh, i'm in desperate need to go Christmas shopping. right. body aching all over, sore throat, but i'm happy, cuz i served God in another way for the past 3days, and the experience is just that priceless.
walking thru heavily pouring rain with the brothers and sisters, running thru mud for the first time, climbing hundreds of floors, making thousands of ball passes, pitching tents, tearing down tents, sleeping on solid ground, feeling the power of God just move through you, running late into the night playin Cluedo and so the list goes on. cheering, singing, jumping, running, shouting, screaming, wailing, smiling, laughing, joking, eating and drinking. overall, the YCYPAO Powerhouse Youth Camp was great! although most of it was 'spirit-lead' or unexpected, the bonds that were forged, strengthened, or rekindled, can never be denied. the experience can never be forgotten. in our hearts, the youth camp was a success!
personally, i've never found it more difficult that to be a facilitator of the people that you know. never has it been more difficult to go down hard on your group members than in this situation. but i believe that it was all for a good cause. i can't say that all the things that i did was right, i know that there's definitely some mistake somewhere along the line, but i felt what i did, my actions, they were right. and i thank God for guiding me thru the whole thing. also thank God for His providence, strength and wisdom. without it, i'd be nothing.
It was a camp that I can never forget, seriously. the rain made it an un-structured experience, a powerful bonding session. just thank God for all the things that have happened. for clearing the 7000 challenges, even hitting the 10,000 mark for some challenges. it was really amazing, to see God working like this. and it was definitely a time that i'd hold dear in my heart.
right. guess it's time to go. see ya again soon. God Bless!
