Blind Faith Meets Obedience
Today I woke up extremely thankful for my Heavenly Father. A Father who loves His children so much that He calls them to obey His every command. To obey even when we have no idea where we're going or what's in store for us! It is in those moments we have to draw on the same blind faith that brought us to Him. A blind faith that strengthens our relationship with Him & brings us to our next destiny. That's exactly what this summer has been for me: a testing of my faith. The Lord called me to Camp Glisson, in Dahlonega, Ga. Which is funny because it's like a Jesus nature camp. I just finished 10 weeks full of bugs, outdoors, mountains, humidity & oh, did I mention BUGS!? If you know me, you know that is NOT my thing at all. So going into this summer, all I could think was, "what did I get myself into?". But do you know what else I just finished 10 weeks full of? Fully trusting The Lord and His will for me and my life. Learning that there is nothing in this life that I have to do alone because He is always with me. Letting go of my pride and leaning on the people in my life for support, encouragement and spiritual uplifting. Witnessing over 50 of my peers glorify the Father in everything they do! Experiencing God through His creation. Showing campers the love of Christ and speaking His truth to them. Honestly, this summer was the best summer of my life. I don't think I've ever known so much truth, experienced so much growth or witnessed so much love and beauty. The Lord blew my mind this summer & exceeded all of my expectations! I want some mo [camp insider)! The Father has so much in store for us, but most of us will never see it because we aren't willing to obey. We're not willing to follow. You're the only one standing in between you and your next destiny. If me spending my summer totally out of my element, in nature & growing to love every minute of it isn't a testament of the Lord's goodness and faithfulness, I don't know what is! 'Will you come and follow me If I but call your name? Will you go where you don’t know And never be the same?'
