Cave City

We got back yesterday from Cave City. It was so much fun. I loved it. We worked with Cave City Baptist Church.
On Tuesday we got there, got settled, and started working. We started cleaning out closets and doing computer work. We only worked about 2 hours. The next day we worked for 8 hours cleaning out closets and on computer stuff. We cleaned out and organized about 8 closets. Big closets with big messes!
Then on Thursday, Kaitlyn and I painted a Sunday School room all day long, and cleaned out another 2 closets. Others did computer work. After work we went exploring in Mammoth Cave National Park. It was really neat.
On Friday we finished cleaning and a few other things. Then we all got ready and went to Mamoth Cave. We went on a 2 hour Historical tour. It was really neat I loved it.
On Saturday we folded bulletins for church and headed back to Dyersburg.
This morning Ashley and I went to First Baptist Dyersburg for church. I love going there. Its the closest thing I can get to Hilldale :)
I miss my church family.
Everything is going well...I can't believe summer is almost over.
God has shown me so much and has done some amazing things. My relationship with Christ has grown so much and I am so in love with my Savior and Lord just for who He is.
That is what my quiet time was about this morning. It talked about how we as a church and as individuals should love God for who He is NOT what He can do for us. And it talked about full surrender. Often this is who we are and who I was and who I don't want to be anymore. "I come to acknowledge and understand that I have not really been concerned about realizing Jesus Christ HIimself, but only concerned with knowing what He has done for me." Now this is my goal and what I'm living for: "My goal is God HImself, not joy nor peace, Nor even blessing, but Himself, my God." All I want to do is continuously fall in love with my Savior and serve Him.
God has moved so much in me this summer.
This week we have VBS at Spinghill Baptist Church. I can't wait to see what God has planned. We also have a youth group from New Orleans staying at the B, so that will be fun.
I'm also a little sad this week because this is the first time in 6 years that I will not be at church camp...specifically Mission Fuge. I have went to Mission Fuge the past 4 years and God showed me so much. I love the camp atmosphere and everything. I wish I could have went again, but I knew God placed me in summer missions and in Dyersburg for such a time as this.
I will keep you updated. :)
Thank you for your prayers. They mean a lot.
