living evidence
so today i got to spend a couple hours with a camp counselor from three years back. It was neat to see how she has changed in three years and to hear her remarks about how I have changed. It is soooo fun seeing a camp counselor outside of camp because then they are actually real. It sounds weird, but when you are at camp, you are in a bubble that makes people seem too good to be true... Today i experienced that too good is true. Listening to her speak made it blatantly obvious that she is a servant for the Lord in every way. In tragedy she finds love and hope, in change she finds reason, and in this world she finds Truth, which is a lot more than i can say. She eloquently put many ambiguous things going through my mind into well put sentences. She brought level-headedness (if thats even a word) to many topics that my mind is anything but level. It is so interesting to me that i can just soak in the wisdom that people like Kim pour out, and it suddenly seems so real. I know that God puts people like Kim in my life for an obvious purpose. Role models such as Kim are few and far between, but in a world like this, i need them to keep me motivated. She is living evidence that I, too, can fight the temptations of this world and better the Kingdom.
