SURPRISE!!

I went, I saw, I loved.

I got back from camp about six days ago so I figured its time for a post. Ahem. IT WAS FABULOUSAY!!!!!!

I'm in love with God, and Jesus, and anything to do with Him. The things I learned are incredible. It was a week of Purity and everything that that entitles.

I'm also in very much like with a Boy named James who makes me very happy and who I make very happy. We are embarking out together on a journey to see where God takes us, and if it is his will that we should be together for years to come.

James is... I don't know how to explain it. He's not like anyone I've ever met. I think it was about our 4th little chat when we sat down and read our favorite bible verses to each other, he's so on fire for God, and not in a way I've ever seen someone before. If I was to be completely honest he really challenged me to become a better christian, not just at camp, but at home too.
One of the first things we talked about when I got home on saturday was how we are going to keep God number one in our relationship, and how we want our relationship to glorify him. He is a spiritual leader, like I've never seen before in other boys.
So I'm really happy, and I've been talking to him every night since I've gotten home. And I got to see him yesterday!! He's coming down sometime next week for a couple days and camp in my back yard.

Mom agreed to that. I was shocked.

IN other news about camp, I made about four really close girl friends, who I love to death, and a lot of good girl friends as well. I learned so much about the bible, and about God this past week that I can't even begin to tell you everything. It was all on Purity, as that was the summer's theme, but it wasn't just on Sexual Purity, but on purity of everything.
There were, I must say, a couple very awkward moment. Especially in the Sunday Sermon which was pretty much on 'the beauty of sex in marriage'.

I'm not Joking.

Try listening to that in a room of 120 teenagers.

haha it was pretty awesome still.

It rained every single day while I was there. Sometimes it was miserable, and sometimes it was awesome! It definitely caused everyone in the camp to be closer because we spent so much time inside and huddled together. I had more hot chocolate in that week then I've had in my entire life! Although the rain was still fun I got a cold which I'm just about over. It was pretty nasty though and hit me really hard on monday when I was suffering most from Post camp depression. Anna and Sean know best since I basically bit their heads off if they looked at me.

Um yeah, so I might write more later but I don't know. I have no idea how long this blog is going to live as my life keeps getting busier and busier with school, boyfriend, friends, life etc etc. We should hope that I post in here at least once a month. Which is basically my goal.

Pretty sad huh?

Kiss the Rain - Billie Myers

Hello
Can you hear me?
Am I gettin' through to you?
Hello
Is it late there?
There's a laughter on the line
Are you sure you're there alone?
Cause I'm
Tryin' to explain
Somethin's wrong
Ya just don't sound the same
Why don't you
Why don't you
Go outside
Go outside

Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone, too long.
If your lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn.
Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you
If ya feel
You can't wait till morinin'
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain

Hello
Do you miss me?
I hear you say you do
But not the way I'm missin' you
What's new?
How's the weather?
Is it stormy where you are?
Cause you sound so close but it feels like you're so far
Oh would it mean anything
If you knew
What I'm left imagining
In my mind
In my mind
Would you go
Would you go

Kiss the rain
And you'd fall over me
Think of me
Think of me
Think of me
Only me

Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone too long
If your lips
Feel hungry and tempted
Kiss the rain
and wait for the dawn
Keep in mind
We're under the same skies
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you
If you feel
You can't wait till morning

Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Oooooohhhhh
Kiss the rain
Oooooohhhhh
Kiss the rain
