Seeing God

Camp is a really hard time for staff members to take time out everyday and pray. It seems crazy, working for a Catholic organization and still lacking time to pray. However, the hectic work hours and desire to be in community with each other consumes around 19 hours of each day. With minimal time to sleep and so much to do, it's easy to put our prayer life on hold until travel season is over.

Today I realized how often I had been doing that when I was even MC for program and had to say how I saw God today. That's not something I have done in over a week! How had I seen God? I saw God today in a camper. Her friend had such anxiety about her first work day at camp that she made herself sick to her stomach. This teen eagerly was looking for her friend, showing such genuine concern. It was beautiful to see her console and encourage her friend. God was working through her to support her anxious friend. Both teens went to their seperate worksites to serve today - doing great things to help even more people. 

For the rest of my tour I am blessed to be the evening MC. Because of this, I am blessed with the opportunity to prayerful reflect and look for God each day. I pray that the rest of my team, all the CHWC teams, and all of you lovely readers out there take a moment today to look for God. He is always there - waiting for you to find him.
