the world is closing in.
it seems to have it's talons on me and yet...
so far away, but not.
on the last night of any camp week I always like to think about bringing the heart of camp into the world. the heart being Jesus and yet...
the world is where I am and live and yet...
I think back to "camp life", the life where NOTHING else seems to matter, but Jesus.
and then I am back in the world struggling to bring that love, that beauty of simplicity know as Camp Manatawny into my daily world and it never seems to work.
what is it about camp manatawny? what is it that makes it work?
isn't it God?
if we bring Him into the world
then the world is simply more beautiful
more loving
more giving
more understanding
more tolerable
i want to live forever, in a place such as this and therefor I will proclaim the name of Christ above all other names for without Him....I truly am the world. And with Him I am His.
and that makes it alright.
