if i do not love, i am nothing.

1 corinthians 13
...read it...

last nite something really awesome happened...one of my girls was crying...so i took her out of worship...and she said "well im a little bit homesick but its something else too"...and she said that she didnt know what being a believer or being saved meant....and we talked about it, and we are gonna talk about it again tonite...she says she wants to be saved...so we are going to pray about it...and make sure thats what she is supposed to do...shes 10...i was crying so much last night, it was amazing to see God moving in someone so young....i get goosebumps just thinking about it...i talked to her last night about it, about what being a christian means, and what Jesus did for us...and how awesome being a Christian really is but that it isnt always easy...and its really not...so my good friend Allison, also the asst. camp director and I talked to her a bit more....it was just one of the most moving things i've ever experienced....

this morning....Allison comes into my room and says "Jami your sister is in Labor!" and i shot up out of my bunk and said "SHUT UP! SERIOUSLY?!?!" i took my girls to breakfast and hurried up to the birthing center...yes my sister being amazing and liberal like she is, had her baby completely natural..little Ronin Alexander was born @ 7:30 AM-ish this...7.5 pounds, 20 inches long...most beautiful baby boy/nephew, this aunt could ask for...YAY im an AUNT!!!...so anyhow im at her house now...my mom, aunt laura, and baby cousin madison just left....its been a great day...

ya know...i asked the Lord at the beginning of this week to provide me with patience and a blessing...and he's given me all of that and more....His love, and how He provides is like no other...amazing love
