Before I get started talking about total nonsense, let me tell you about camp.  It was an awesome experience and something I really needed.  I really think God had sent those people that went to camp to help me with issues that I've had in the past.  If you can actually believe it, I used to be shy.  Really shy.  But at camp I actually wasn't shy like I have been in the past.  I remember when I was a scrawny five year old who was too shy to do anything.  Now I'm a stocky seventeen year old who looks like he's thirty-four to some people and not shy towards anything.  It's an awesome thing really.

One thing that happened during the week (Wednesday to be exact) was something called a Prayer Experience.  This was a serious act of worship that could not be put in words.  Since I'm a Baptist, I don't usually read prayers.  We don't have a prayer book, and sometimes I think that puts us at a loss.  We sometimes don't know how to put prayers in a certain format and that does not strengthen our beliefs like we are called to do in most times.

Oh yes, I don't want to forget the people I met at camp.  These are the gals that I think God actually sent to me to help me out with some of my trust issues.  You see, I've had some trust issues with girls and things like that.  However, these fifteen year olds showed me I can talk about anything and not worry about looking like a total moron in front of people.  These girls from North Carolina are awesome.  So here's my notes to you Stacy, Melissa, Ashley, Kellyn, Melinda, and anybody else that I accidently forgot.  I'll keep talking to you and make sure that I'll see you again.  And Stacy, we will see each other again just as we promised ;-).  That's just the way it goes.

When I got back from camp, I realized that I missed something.  That was the presence of God.  I probably also missed the phone calls until 12:30 or 1:00 like I've been doing the past couple of days.  But seriously, now I feel loved.  It's something everybody should feel.
