well i was on spring break this week and it was nice to have a little break from class...i got to go home and see my sweet family!!...they are soo amazing!!...i got home a few days after daddy's birthday and it was fun to celebrate with the plastic cowboys and indians like we use to every year...we went out to dinner one night and it was great to just have some sweet time with my daddy...he has always been there for me and has supported me soo much!!...we talked about this year and all that im learning and where i will be after this...im excited that ill be in branson a little bit longer!!...i was asked last week to be the assistant kitchen manager at K-2 this summer!!...i was shocked at first but then it was amazing how i realized this was exactly what God was preparing me for this summer!!...i knew that i didnt want to go back to K-Kountry and had complete peace about it all...i just didnt know what i was going to do instead...and God just continued to grow me and to continue to tell people that my decision was final to not go back to kamp...and all along He was saying you might be saying no to K-Kountry but your time at kamp isnt quite over yet!...it was really cool!!...He really does give us the desires of our hearts when we follow Him completely!!...i truly believe that the more in line we are with His will the more our desires really are His that He has given us!!...i love that!!...in HIS arms i am completely satisfied!!,,,He has given me this incredible opportunity to go back to my favorite kamp from when i was a kamper!!...i love it out there and to get to work along side some of my greatest role models...WOW!!...God is good!!...i cant wait to pour into the lives of all the college girls ill be living with this summer!!...it will be a great summer but ill also be happy when i can spend days with my sister in the city!!...we went and saw the Justin Bieber movie together!!...it was awesome because she had never seen a movie in 3D!!...hahaha!!...she was freaking out at first and "i was like amanda theres no way youve never seen a movie in 3D!!...didnt you see Jonas Brothers in 3D?!!"...the funny thing i was being serious!!...and we also got coffee at frothy monkey before Kairos on tuesday night!!...and then i got to spend a lot of time with some of my favorite kids!!...i have the sweet little "siblings" (not really) from other parents that ive gotten to watch grow up...i started babysitting them when they were little and now my boys have outgrown me!!...its soo fun to tell their friends were brother and sister when i eat lunch with them at school!!...it will be really great to get to be at kamp again with them this summer since they are old enough to be at the high school kamp!!...soo crazy!!...im truly learning what its like to disciple youth and the urgency to be faithful for years!!...i think the worst thing you can do is make a promise to disciple a kid and only be in their life for a summer or a bible study and then leave them...i realize that you cant always physically stay in a kids life but calling and do all you can to stay in their life as they mature is essential!!...and i love that i get to do that with these kids who are now teenagers!!...its fun to see what God is doing in their lives and how He is shaping and molding them into His disciples to carry His gospel to others!!...all Glory to God for He has done great things!!...
