Quick Update

As of this moment and time I have been in the Forge program at Pine Cove Christian Camps four and half months. I have another 3 and a half left until graduation and then I will be working another summer term at the Bluffs family camp. 

Life has been a roller coaster the past two and a half years. I have gone through Anxiety and Depression to an extreme I never imagined, I have met people of all walks of life. Life would best be described for me in Psalms 13. 
"How long, O Lord? Will you forget me 
forever?
How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
and every day have sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over
me?
Look on me and answer, O Lord my God.
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in
death;
my enemy will say, "I have overcome
him," 
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
But I will trust in your unfailing Love; 
my heart rejoices in your salvation.
I will sing to the Lord, 
for he has been good to me."

The first part of this Psalm describes my emotions and thoughts for the past two years, and the ending part of the Psalm speaks of the truth of God, that he has unfailing love, and to rejoice in his salvation, sing to the Lord, for he has been good to me. This to me is the truth that should be lived by no matter my emotions. God has saved me and been good to me. This is the truth no matter how I feel at times.
