But God is good. <BR/><BR/>I read some things in my devotions that really helped me and encouraged me. <BR/><BR/>Read Isaiah 55:10,11. God's word is never wasted. And, I was thinking about Philippians 1:6 and the promise that God will finish the work He has started in us... I had always applied that to myself, but hadn't thought about the implications for others. <BR/><BR/>Thinking about that verse and the promise it holds for the kids I've seen at camp really helped me to have faith that God will continue to touch their lives even after my influence on them is gone.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01440799300068192995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2955208849855322804.post-48542782251608627142008-07-06T07:30:00.000-07:002008-07-06T07:30:00.000-07:00Hey John!
