\"I worked the summer of Inside Out\"<\/h2>\n

I feel like everywhere I look, the Lord is reminding me of the things He taught me at Camp. Now, I know some of you may be thinking, \u201cCole, when you have spent almost 2\/3 of your life at T Bar M, I HOPE the Lord has used that in great ways!\u201d But whether you spent one half summer or multiple years of your life at Camp, I trust the Lord has used it to shape your walk with Him. Reading God\u2019s Word daily (Batter\u2019s Box and First Fruits) has really evolved into daily reading, weekly extended sabbath, quarterly seeking a day of silence and solitude, and annually getting away for an extended time with the Lord (wow, feels like I am signing up for some accountability from friends on this one! 😉). The way we learned to live in community (Covenant Groups) has really set the tone for how Jen and I engage with our church small group. And then, of course, investment in others (ummm, I think that is all of Camp) looks a lot like raising kids as well as loving on and investing in anyone the Lord allows me to connect with. But one of the hardest things I think for us to grab hold of at Camp is time. The days are long, but the weeks are short! It's hard to remember what year I was first a Coach \u2026 however; we can all likely recall in our own Campy way! How, you might ask? Just call it the Max Out<\/u><\/b> summer\u2026or the Rightbackatchanow<\/u><\/b> summer\u2026or maybe it was the Stamp\u2019d<\/u><\/b> summer. How many times do we hear, \u201cOh, I don\u2019t remember what year that was, but I know it was Bring It<\/u><\/b>!\u201d <\/p>\n

\n
Verse Isaiah 40:31 \u201cBut those who wait for the Lord\u2019s help find renewed strength; they\u00a0<\/i><\/b>RISE UP<\/i><\/strong>\u00a0<\/i><\/b>as if they had eagles\u2019 wings, they run without growing weary, they walk without getting tired.\u201d<\/i><\/b><\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Like the nation of Israel in Isaiah\u2019s day we are in desperate need of comfort and hope, but when we look inward instead of upward our anxiety only increases. The promise is for those who wait for the Lord\u2019s help. Amid hardship, when we grow tired and weary, when we stumble and fall; it is we who hope in the Lord who will\u00a0RISE UP<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

The world tells us that to get ahead in life we have to work harder, try harder, pull ourselves up by the bootstraps. God\u2019s economy is different. He tells us to come to Him all who are weary, and He will give us rest. We know that life is hard, but He tells us that His yoke is easy and His burden is light.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This summer as we are coming into the homestretch of summer camp, we invite you all to join us as we Rise UP by putting our faith in the only One who can handle it\u2026the One true, sovereign God!\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
