Well the first week is done and I loved it. I never knew that I could get so tired, but then I also can't believe how much God can work in kids who are so young. It is just reminding me that it is not them who are figuring out these things, but God showing to them. I know that it wasn't me that was teaching it to them.

One thing that all of the counselors have done during the week is give their testamony to the campers. A testamony is how someone was brought to God and how God has worked in their life. I was giving my testimony one evening talking about how God has pretty much pulled me into his family without letting me realize what was going on (it wasn't like I decided one day to go to church... it was a very gradual thing). So I was illustrating how God had called me, when I said my name. Now, our real names are supposed to stay secret until the end of the week so discovering a counselor's name is pretty exciting for these kids, but I was in the middle of my testimony and I was really getting into it. Well, almost all of the kids at once loudly let me know that I had blown the cover. Gotta love these kids.

On Friday night they all had the opportunity to give their testimonies and I can't belive how much these kids have had to go through, but then I see how God has brought good things out of every since bad thing that has happened in their lives. One person talked about how the death of an uncle brought a family to Christ. It really makes me realize how great God is.

Also, I have been teaching my kids the daily bible studies (the material is given to us, but we have the option of how to present it), and even though I have been the worst teacher ever, my campers have been learning these really deep things out of them. Some of the stuff that they are learning is stuff that I didn't even talk about! I just have to thank God that he is doing the teaching and not me.

Honestly, even though I am tired beyond all belief and I am not getting paid monetarily for any of this, this is one of the best things that I feel like I have ever done. The problem right now is what I want to do with my life because the thought of programming again doesn't necessarily appeal very much to me. Is college where I should be right now or is it somewhere else? I don't know, but so far God has lead me to where he wants me to be, so I guess I will wait until God takes me somewhere else before I make a change.

Now before I end this post, I want to pose a question to everyone who reads this. I don't want you to tell me the answer but just to think about it. If you were to die right now, would you go to heaven or hell and why?
