Another Week...An Incredible Paycheck

Well dear readers another week has come to a close here at beautiful Wolf Mountain. Tonight I got my paycheck for the week, and what a paycheck it was. Paychecks here are a little different than they are for other people who work a 9-5 job. My paycheck comes in the form of the incredible things that God does in the lives of staff, campers, and even me during the week of camp!

This week God truly showed himself faithful, as He always does, to me and my friends here at camp.   As we were preparing for another exciting week of camp Satan decided to throw some "fiery darts" at us. Almost half of the staff here got hit hard with a virus that took a few out for this week of camp. We really had to work together as a team to fill in missing pieces and make it all work, but God was faithful and provided those missing pieces and allowed this week of camp to be incredible. Monday morning several staff members woke up to no water running through the pipes of their homes, yet another bump in the road that God smoothed out as our water was running again by the end of the day! The Lord also allowed us to have multiple campers come this week who were not saved and presented many challenges to their counselors and the other staff here at camp, and once again God was faithful and we saw lives truly changed for Christ!

This summer I am getting the BEST paycheck that I have ever received, sure I may be a poor college student, still, at the end of the summer, but spiritually I have gained SOOOOO much!! The Lord taught me that I have areas of my life that I need to work on and He has slowly shown me how I can live a life that is more pleasing to Him.

Dear readers please keep the team here at Wolf Mountain in your prayers. We are preparing to send these precious children back to their homes and prep for another exciting week of camp, this time Teen Camp!!! Pray that the Lord will be preparing hearts and minds to receive the word and that it would be another FABULOUS week of camp!! For now I will Keep Calm and Write On...oh yeah...and Finish Med School! :)
