Good News
Every day we have needs that aren’t met, we have worries that plant themselves in the front of our minds, and we desire to just have peace. If this is something that plagues us, you can bet our campers also endure these things. They probably have more needs than we do! What a discouraging reality…. but there is always good news! Our God is our provider. God gives us exactly what we need, and his provisions are far better than what we can provide ourselves or even imagine. Paul shares an excellent reminder in Philippians 4, and I ask that you join me in praying this for our campers.
“Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again– rejoice! Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon. Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.“
Philippians 4: 4-7
