First Trials

So today was the first day that I have really been tried since being here, and I don't think that I passed.

The kids showed up today for our first camp of the summer. It just had to be one of the hottest days that we have had to date. So what did the kids and counselors jump at first? The water! By lunch it was gone. We had no drinking water left on the property and the next water run wasn't due for another hour.

I just had to get away from the stress. I grabbed my bible an ran to my quiet spot. Then I remembered the passage that we had been reading all semester at UAM, the woman at the well. I open my bible to John 4 and verse 13 popped out at me:

"Jesus answered, ' Everyone who drinks this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst"

This made me think of the well that is being dug on the property. A fresh water well would provide so much for this camp. When the water starts flowing from that spring there will be nothing but praising and dancing going on and all of it in the name of Jesus.

Spring up oh well!
