Camp life is beautiful. It is tough and tiring and perfectly beautiful. As I write this I am sitting on a cozy couch in a cozy cabin with our sliding deck door open to a symphony of blowing leaves. Storms that drive towards you in a wall across the lake, sunsets that put Monet and daVinci to shame, and an opportunity to live out my faith in a VERY tangible way...it's just beautiful!! I have 3 children, I help my husband lead a team of about 50 staff, half of them my Cedar-ladies, and every week a new batch of campers...I AM exhausted...and SO content. There is no way else for me to describe it but PURE JOY!! And every once in a while, my Lord sees fit to slow me down enough to remind me how truly joyful and beautiful this place is. Every towering tree, whisper of wind, washing of wave and soaking sunbeam...and the Gospel of Christ shared with young people!!! Awesome INDEED!! How blessed am I!!!
And there you shall eat before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your households, in all that you undertake, in which the LORD your God has blessed you.
- Deuteronomy 12:7
