[squeezing pillow] well i went to youth camp 2 weeks ago. it was the most amazing experience of my life. it was my 1st time going since i was 11. i met some really awesome people there. it's amazing how God put these people in my life and in just a week they became my best friends. during camp we formed this group. and it was always us hanging out. it was me, my cousin ashley some of you might remember as mini_chic, jared, heath, jessica, and britney. we were probably the tightest group there. it actually worked out kinda well. jessica and britney are sisters. they live like 30 minutes away from me. heath lives about 5 minutes from ashley and works with her boyfriend. but jared's the oddball. lol. he lives in sarasota. i still talk to him pretty much everyday though. i talk to heath almost everyday too. so anyway, amazing ppl. moving on, to be honest, i've always believed in God. but i can be stubborn at times. i would let go of some things and give them to Him but not everything. I wasn't completely surrendering myself. at camp i realized this and that i needed to change. i surrendered absolutely everything. gave everything to Him. and now God is my #1 priority. i'm working really hard to always put Him 1st and now i'm seeking Him with my whole heart. not just some here and there. and i've noticed the difference. i feel so much closer to God. i can see that he's closed doors and opened new ones. the person that really inspired me and helped me to want the change and to be a better Christian was heath. i've never met another guy like him. he's extremely dedicated. and he always refers back to the Bible whenever we're talking about something. he'll tell me what it says in the Bible first and where it says it and then he'll give me his advice. God has truly blessed him with wisdom far beyond his years. life has just been so amazing and wonderful since this change. i feel refreshed. and i highly recommend trinity youth camp in keystone heights, florida. seriously, it was the best experience ever.
