"You find that you have something to offer the world when you give up trying to prove your worth & step into love with your "5 loaves & 2 fishes". Even better that you have nothing, so that God may be everything."
The incredibly wise words of Pepp.
Things have been so good here. Forging new friendships that will hopefully last lifetimes. Making plans about the future (which are ultimately up to God). Moose hunting...sitting in the back of a truck puffing on cigars and laughing and confessionals and riding away, bodies halfway through the sunroof, whizzing down the backroads of Vermont in the night. The deer flies bite and the sun pours heat. The campers are new and eager each week, filled with childlike faith and wit that I never expected.
Understanding that my time here is precious, and soaking up every day as much as I'm able.
Back to work!
