There is a song I have heard that goes like this:
I 'm excited I'm excited
I'm excited in the Lord
When You walk with the Lord,
You don't get bored
That has been so true for the last 30 some years. Ever since I got saved when I was 16 yrs old. Its has been a exciting walk. Right now,we are getting ready for camp meeting. The excitement of getting out the suitcases, choosing your clothes, trying to remember everything you need. Getting calls and texts from others that are going. You feel the excitement going ,with the questions that are asked. Do you think it will be hot or will it be cold this year? Wonder if my friends from last year will be there. Wondering who is preaching the first sermon. And will they have the aqua Launch, canoes, minuture golf?
One person we know will be there is, Jesus. He will be there to answer prayers, heal bodies, mend hearts.
Going with a excitement to know that Jesus can and will meet you there not just once but everytime you reach out to him.
Driving on to the grounds and seeing that friend you haven't seen for maybe a year. The joy of making new friends and reaching out to old friends. Does it get better than this?
Soon and very soon, our Lord will be returning. Are we excited? Are we making preparations? Have we forgot anything?
Like we, call our friends to share or excitement of camp and questions of what we need. We need to read God's word, search the scriptures. Communicate with Jesus on a daily basis, asking him to search you and show you.
IT WILL BE TIME WELL SPENT
