Somedays things seem fine because on the surface it is.
Other days you feel the battle raging deep inside the hearts of the youth.
Today was one of those days.
Things went pretty well in the behaviour sense.
People wise, the leaders are starting to see and be more aware of various issues.
All of which come from an incomplete/poor family life.
The balance during camp is very delicate one thing could tip it the wrong way....
I dunno why but sometimes I get scared of the youth. Its like I can feel this evil presence clinging on to them, blinding them, deceiving them.
One things for sure: There is a heck of a lot of invisible stuff going on behind this camp. Its been hard to teach anything from the bible.
Its also been refreshing to see God work. I always tired and worn out but as soon as camp starts I get the energy to love. Its like God zaps me with power for those 2 hours.
Gradually I've been building relationship, trust, respect from everyone youth, street leaders other interns. (its all God through me)
I've also been given more responsibilities. Being entrusted with more.
This Friday my supervisor is gone speaking on a youth retreat and both street leaders are gone. One is in the hospital and one doesn't work on Fridays. So its just me and a placement student named Grace running program. To make it more interesting 21 students from Tyndale University are coming to help. Its my job to feed them and plan a program which they can lead in which youth will enjoy and grow.
Pray for me.
