wildwood debrief

ok, so i came home from wildwood like two days ago. okay it wasn't "like" two days ago. it was two days ago and i just wanted to write about my adventures with it. so when i was on my way up to the mountains i was kind of nervous because all of my memories of wildwood from the previous year was with people that weren't going to be there. but i went up there with the mindset that i was going to grow in my relationship with God and with friends. that's exactly what happened. on monday we had a persecution night where we had to go to an "underground" church and sneak there because if we go caught we would be "persecuted." i had gotten stopped once by the persecutors and they had asked some really tough questions. on the way back from the church we went to the night for worship i was talking to molly and we were saying how we couldn't really get into it and pretend it was real. but on the way back i was also going through what the guy had told me before he let me go. it made me really want to learn the bible and research it like we do on library day.  the next couple days in solo time i was working on that. not just reading the bible but understanding it and taking something out of everytime i read in it. then thursday came along and God just revealed himself to me in so many ways. first in solo time i was feeling really down and lost and i had prayed about it and then like seconds after i had said amen katie j started singing a song about if you feel lost just turn to God and he will find you. then at the ropes course that day, well during debried of the ropes course, mallory, our pawn, talked about how on the plank she would start off touching us and guiding us through it but as we got farther along and faster she would lift her hands from our backs but she was going there if we would slip even though we couldn't feel her. that was probably the best analogy i heard that week. then finally when we went to ponderosa, i loved talking to the girls and helping them out and thier look on their faces when we wanted to pray for them. i knew for a fact that God is with us and speaks through us. that was probably the best part of the week.

now this is where we talk about my friend relationships that i built. pretty much relationships are being built left and right. i really think i got closer to every one that went which was really fun. i don't really know how to say how amazing the relationships became. but all in all it was an incredible week and it was all because of GOD.
