It has been a while since my last blog post – but I have good reason – I was at youth camp all last week.  So, you get a brain dump in this post – and the next post will be a compilation of some google feeds I found interesting.  These are in no particular order.

1.  Camp was great.

2.  Kids were saved – always a plus

3.  I like sleeping in my own bed without ants.

4.  Sometimes I wish I could shut my brain off.

5.  It is hard to be in worship (singing/listening to the Word preached) for 4 hours a day and no be able to be alone to digest it – 5 days total.  Overload.

6.  It is a good thing to be in worship that much. 

7.  Yes – I don’t know how I reconcile the two.

8.  My heart breaks for young girls who are struggling like I had to.

9.  Fiction is a good thing to read when I want to read – but don’t want to think.

10.  I struggle with idolatry.  I have 3 main ones – I realized one of those today.

11.  I love and hate to journal.

12.  I am working on my photog with shadows and light.  I don’t always win.

13.  I’m not cool.

14.  Having a good dance partner makes all the difference in the world.  I don’t have one.  But, line dancing is fun.

15.  I want to be cool in front of teenagers.

16.  When will that ever go away?

17.  I like being reminded of what/who I am waiting for.

18.  I miss Huber’s

19.  I miss some great friends in the Ville.

20.  I wouldn’t trade RDU for anything.

21.  I love to travel by myself.

22.  I love Caribou’s signature teas for the summer.

23.  Nick Roark can preach.

24.  Satan is real

25.  Lies damage

26.  Guys puzzle me.

27.  The heart is a mysterious thing.

28.  It is also desparately wicked – who can know it.

29.  I don’t know everything.

30.  I like (and don’t like) being reminded that it is not all about me.

31.  I love to sing with abandon.

32.  I like watching people who are skilled and joyful at what they do.

33.  I am glad I have 3 trips to the beach planned – I miss water. (Insert Brad Paisley song here).

34.  I ate too much junk food for meals at camp.

35.  Being sick wipes me out – I don’t like it.

36.  I think I might buy a fountain pen – should I get a bottle or cartridge?

37.  I like peace and quiet.

38.  I envy. 

39.  The cross covers that envy.

40.  I struggle between the balance of Romans 8.1 and Titus 2.10

41.  Life is much easier when I don’t have so much to think about.

42.  It is just easier or better?

43.  I love my job.

44.  I love my church.

45.  I love to celebrate people’s birthdays.

46.  How my life would be completely difference if a handful of things had gone differently earlier in life.

47.  God is sovereign and has a great plan.

48.  He will not withhold anything good from those who walk uprightly.

49.  I like to control things.

50.  I am not in control.

I think that’s a good one to end on.  Stay tuned tomorrow for a recipe and some good links.
