BUSY SEASON

We forget to live in the present as we are looking forward to the future.

Author Robert Holden wrote, “The real gift of gratitude is that the more grateful you are, the more present you become.”

Gratitude often times doesn’t take the form of outward thanks. It is a warm feeling or emotion felt inside that we express with intention and presence. In the craziness of our lives, let’s take time to find things happening around us that we are truly grateful for.

When we take that intentional time to be grateful, we will also become more present in the love of God that surrounds us. When we become more present, it is easier to see and feel the life-changing power of God, through the Holy Spirit, all around us. We give thanks and are grateful this season for all who continue to help make camp one of those special places where anyone and everyone can be present in God’s abundant love.
