One of the freshman girls from my cabin wrote this poem to describe Winter Camp, and I felt like it summed it up very well. (and my brain is too much tired happy mush right now to write an actual post!) More pictures to come tomorrow, but, for now…
Are there words to describe
this unspeakable joy inside?
Gleefully soothing my broken heart
God's work has come and I can't wait to take part!
From confessing pain to seeing joy
Walls we built now we destroy
God is here and He is moving
With Him on our side, we can't be losing
We faced challenges and fears
Slaying demons with falling tears
These days are insane, but so beautifully complete
(What makes better best is the food that we eat!)
We've learned that the world ain't all that you see
And we all carry pain, no matter who we might be
We've also heard that when you're tardy
It's never too late to be welcomed to the party
Life is hard, God is good
Celebrate this? Yes, we should!
At His throne more souls have knelt
And icy hearts have begun to melt
Joy and pain
Love like rain
Shockingly sweet
Is this Wildhorse Retreat
WELCOME TO THE PARTY!
