BEDA- Day One

So, here we are, April 1, 2011.
At the moment, I'm at Camp Caraway in Sophia, NC. I'm here for the BCM Spring Conference that's going on this weekend, and I honestly can't think of a better way to start my BEDA experience. I always wonder what I'll blog about when I get around to blogging, and tonight, I'm just here to proclaim my Savior.

The past few weeks have been hard. I've gone through struggles with chains and bonds, and trying to break those addictions. It's a hard place, because every time I fall back, I feel farther away from God, and it's something I've been praying about for a few days almost constantly. But sometimes, it's hard to remember how much God loves us, and that His love never fails.

But tonight, I was reminded of the simple fact that God loves us. Did you hear that? He loves us. Sometimes we get so caught up in the "church doctrine" that we feel disconnected from God when we sin, or at least I do. But tonight, when we sang "Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)"  by Chris Tomlin, I was reminded that no matter what we do, or what happens, God's love never fails, nor does it leave us.

That's it for today, ya'll. Something short, but what I've learned for the day.
The verse I'll be leaving you with for the next couple of days is Philemon 1:6: "And I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective for the full knowledge of every good thing that is in us for the sake of Christ."

Yours,
Kayla
