So, week one of camp has just ended. On Monday, the first full day of camp, our store system crashed. Being the store manager, this affected me greatly. We ended up having to write down every last thing that all 203 campers bought daily and after each shift, I had to manually enter their spending into a spreadsheet. This took about five hours per shift and resulted in me crying every time from the stress to get it done before the next shift. It also pushed me to my knees. It was a constant reminder that I cannot do this alone, I cannot make it through without the God of the universe.
Also, last week, I was (and still am) constantly reminding myself that I no longer live for myself. This is a decision I made a long time ago when I decided to dedicate all of who I am to God, but it is a struggle everyday. Everyday I think of what would bring me happiness, when I need to focus on what would bring God the most glory.
My prayer for this week is that I die to self, live for Him, and serve Him faithfully.

Praying for those “all things” that God is using to drive you to your knees! See you soon. Praying.
