Do not be afraid to feel.

Koinonia retreat :)

Last weekend we had a group of 20 Christians from a college in KC come out to our place, we about five of them! I had a great time getting to know people though and hearing the group leaders speak. It was encouraging and refreshing. And after the group left the people that we already knew stayed for two days. They are amazing, and I'm so thankful for them and to them. We (Justin, Nathaniel, Preston, John, Shaina and I) were planning to go rock climbing but we couldn't find a spot so we went on a adventure! We climbed trees, watched the sunset, and then we walked up a hill and spun around as fast as we could :) it felt like flying, haha, if you've never done it you should. Justin just about tossed his cookies though!
 Then we stayed up really late watching some hilarious home videos. Hehehehe

 Today Nathaniel, Preston and Shaina and I went on another adventure and came across a pond so we jumped took our shoes off, jumped in and swan around. It was really cold though! Wow. Then we decided that we wanted a raft so we walked about a forth of a mile and came across some dry logs. We picked them up and carried them back (it was actually quite a workout!) and tried our best to make them float! Haha, we got all the way across the pond and then did it again. It was so much fun and so relaxing. And of course all of this was out in the middle of nowhere. I don't think we even saw any houses the whole time. And we certainly didn't see any other people.

God is good, all the time.

 Praying for my friend Hannah who has been diagnosed with Lupus, also praying for Erin, for grace to make it through these days, for a servants spirit, for guidance in my life. Mostly praying for God to fulfill the plans that He has for me in my life and for courage to go wherever He takes me.
