It’s been a little under 2 weeks since sONE finished and it was awesome. I couldn’t be more proud of the service team and all the others that came and wanted to come closer to God.

It’s funny because in the homily, we were told to be prophets of the new age. To be prophets, we must be one with God.

Last weekend was Whitewater Rafting. It was a huge gong show, if anything needed to be said about it. I can keep complaining about lack of support but that’s growing pains for any young endeavor. This marks the first project that I put. The readings on the Thursday before the big day were:

“I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race. I have kept the faith”

(2 Tim)

“The Lord has set me free from all my fears” (Psalms)

I have read these before and it just reminded me of how God is ever reassuring and if we give ourselves to him then we are in good hands. It’s hard to give our lives when we are so in control that simply giving it up can’t happen. That’s what Whitewater rafting is. We give our hands to the guide who knows the river more and we are pushed so that we can enjoy the slides and the changing flow of the current. The river is our life and the guide is God in reality. Our lives change, we could sometimes float but there are rapids up ahead. If anything, I’d want to hit more rapids, even though I have to work hard for it. Life’s more interesting that way. Thanks to Jason for being a great guide. (Not you, Diala!)

I’ve also been receiving great visions for things to happen at the close of C4 for Calgary. I pray that God’s grace and Spirit be upon YFC Calgary for the awesome ride ahead. Hold on!
