Shooting stars.

The other night i was blessed to be able to spend time with my favorite boys in the whole world at my friend Samuel's camp.  We laid on the porch of their cabin with pillows and blankets and watched the sky as shooting stars passed by.  There is nothing that can compare to a starry night at camp.  We laid and talked about Jesus and sang a couple of worship songs and i think there was a sing along to "here comes the sun" in there as well.  It was refreshing to just be, to just sit and be amazed at how awesome our God is.  He placed each star in it's place just like he has placed us in the places we are.  When i get to just enjoy Him, i feel so much closer.  Lately, i've been going, going, going, its hard to take a breath and breathe Him in.  Constantly breathing him in is something i've been working on, even when i'm busy.  Nothing is more important than how my heart is with God.    I'm constantly amazed by his grace and how he showers me with it.  I can only smile and try my best to make him happy.  I, myself am so weak and frail but he takes me and tells me i'm useful, and he can do great things with me if i remain in Him.  I'm blown away by that, i'm blown away that the creator of the whole universe would want to use me in his plans.  In my mind it doesnt make sense but i just nod and kneel at my fathers feet until he tells me to go, hopefully i obey, or at least stay out of his way so i dont mess it up (which i do more often than not.)

Our God is good, he is incredible, he is just, he is loving, and he is AWESOME.
I'm so stinking lucky to serve Him, i delight in his presence.
