Even in the valley, God is good... [how true that is, and what a comfort it is to know that His grace is sufficient ] I don't have a computer at the moment, [I'm currently using Camp's] So that's why my posts are few & far between.
Today was one of the most uniquest days I've seen... not sure I've ever seen it snow & the sunshine come out so many times in one day. [it snowed probably 5 to 7 times today =] It certainly feels like winter has arrived!! It's just slightly COLD outside. [time to get out those snow boots =]
My life has been what feels like a flying freight train...[without brakes =] though this weekend most of the staff are gone so I'm looking forward to solo & quiet time with God & some much needed rest. Also looking forward to making more memories with the people that are here!
I think I'll close with this...
"So when you're down in the valley, and there's no way out,
surrounded by mountains, with no way around,
you're trapped in the struggle, your faith at it's end,
when hope comes up empty that's where His grace begins!"
May you experience Jesus as your Rock today, knowing that He walks with you each step of the way! til next time, God's Canada girl

The heavens declare the glory of God... Be still, and know that I am God,... Cast thy burden upon the Lord and He shall sustain thee: all these verses tie into the last couple of weeks of my journey & life here at Camp. It's hard to believe that Sept. has already come & gone... and fall is definitely here.
I think I'll let the pictures tell the story this time... =)
The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning.. Bless the LORD, oh my soul....
Yeah. no explanation. other than sometimes we do unique things like butcher a grouse inside.

Lego's are always so much fun. =)
How sweet to hold a new born baby...
Saturday Mornin' brunch...
I love when the lake & sky are so blue. Just so beautiful.
This was my view after waking up from sleeping out on the dock under the beautiful night sky.
Ah yes, the Northern Lights. =) God's light display.
Good way to start the day :)
Youth Retreat has come and gone. What a busy but good weekend it was.
Carmel came to help us out. So good to have her back!
Late nights = some rather fun & crazy moments in the kitchen.
Fresh tomatoes.. mmm.
Falling leaves = leaf piles & lots of fun times indeed.
There's a lot of change taking place these next couple of months.. and there's a lot of things that I don't know, but I know I can trust God's heart. Here's a poem that I wrote at the end of last year. Little did I know what God had in store, what all these last months would hold, and how He would lead me to the North. :)
But this I Know…
Don't know what trials I will face,
Or the valleys I will walk through,
One thing I do know,
My God is faithful and true.
I don't know what mountains I'll climb,
Or what wonders I will get to see,
But this I know in my heart,
That JESUS will be there with me.
Don't know the different roads I'll walk,
Or the the adventures that will unfold,
But this I know, God will lead me til,
I reach those beautiful streets of gold.
Don't know all the battles I'll fight,
Or the decisions I'll have to make.
But I know that it's worth dying,
For the Gospel and Jesus' sake.
I don't know if I'll see another day,
Or if I'll get to live another year,
But I know Jesus has redeemed me,
And that perfect love casts out fear.
I don't know the joys that may come,
Or the dreams that may come true.
But I do know, God's way is perfect,
And that He loves me and you.
There's a lot of things I don't know,
And things that I cannot see.
Yet this I know, I can trust God.
And that Jesus died to set us free.
May you continue to experience more of God in your heart as you walk the journey.
til next time :) God's Canadian girl
