Just came back from OCF camp two days, the Spirit of God is still strong within and around me. Please linger on like this forever...

Bask me in the love and grace and glory of you, Lord.

OCF camp was phenomenal! 4 days, 3 nights, 4 lost souls won, 1 strayed sister rededicated to God. Amazing results, Praise God!

During the camp, I publicly dedicated my 100% to God, and as I knelt at the front of the altar, I prayed for God to open my eyes and heart, and reveal his intended purpose for my life. Show me the way and I will follow. Give me your hand and I submit my all to you, Lord.

Not only was the Spirit of God so real during the camp, I discovered both through experience, prompting from the Holy Spirit, as well as peer feedback, what some of my spiritual gifts are.

And it is upon realization on my spiritual gifts that I start marveling at those of others, such as teaching, pastoral/shepherding which I lack the gifts for. And I am so appreciative of the wonderful gifts God has granted to each of us Christians. Instead of feeling proud, I am greatly humbled by my limitations, and I am reminded of the body of Church needing all the limbs to function as a whole.

As a baby evangelist, my heart lies in the mission fields, and without realizing it, God had planted a passion all consuming and strong within me. Now that I know that is actually my gift, it explains the strange greater than average passion I had for evangelism all along.

God has a purpose for me, and I believe God will use me to fulfill the Great Commission!

Amen!
