Camp (again)

Back from camp. Taylor Christian Camp 2006. Good show.
Much of my time the first few days was taken up trying to convince a homesick camper not to go home. He was the only one from his home congregation. He was a homebody, and very much liked the company of his parents. Convincing him not to go was a time monopolizer. For a while there he was my shadow. And for him, his camp experience lasted until midday Wednesday. He made it farther than I expected.
This was the camp which I’ll remember as being in a different stage in my life. No longer was I the freshfaced post college grad looking for a week of vacation. This was work. This was responsiblity. I’m glad I did it. I think it is where God wants me to be.
