Communtiy Service and Getting Ready

Today at School we had a community service day, we split up in groups and went and cleaned up around town. Worked in the press box at our football field. I painted ceilings, walls, steps. We had to unscrew and take off the stair railings and sand them, then we put primer on the rails and stairways. We also had to lay newspaper, and tape of area of the walls, and the no slip strips on the stairs so we wouldn't get paint on them. All in all it was hard but fun and very rewarding! If you get a chance to help in your community you should do it!

So school is out tomorrow and then I'm off to work at a church camp for the summer. I'll be core staff (staff that helps take care of the grounds and basically does anything that needs to be done.) I'll be the youngest core staff there by five years! Thankfully my "adopted grandparents" run the camp so I'll be with them. Its going to be a lot of hard work! I had some training last summer and I worked there over Christmas break so I at least have an idea of what I'm getting myself into. I hope that I can be used to impact the campers and parents for Christ. Even though its a Church camp I know God can still use me for his glory this summer. So everyone have a great summer, and I hope to be able to update about actual camp experiences within the next few weeks!!!

What Love Is...

Okay so....for every normal human...(i think idk Im not normal lol) Everyon wants love. But how exactly are we supposed to know what love is? I hear everyone talking about love at first sight or this amazing feeling, but I finally figured something out. Love isn't a feeling, Its a choice we make. Lust is a feeling. Think of that "love at first sight" What was is really? That they were so hot you decided you loved them, I think it was more like "Lust at First Sight" Don't get me wrong when you love someone there is deffinatly an attraction but its a choice you make. I mean when I see a guys with huge blue eyes, singing into a microphone on top of a building....anyway. Also "love" isn't for everyone....let me rephrase everyone is going to love and lust at some point in time in their life but maybe God's plan doesn't include you getting married. Me personally I want to get married and have kids. 
I thin the reason that the divorce rate in America is so high is that people went into marrige mistaking lust for love. Lust is wrong to begin with (when taken to the point of sex before marrige etc.) so why should it keep your realstionships together? It shouldn't and It won't. When people say they "Just Fell Out Of Love..." They didn't fall they chose to walk out. Now Im not saying if a realtionship in your life doesn't work that's you fault, cause its not...It takes two people to make a realstionship work. If only one person wants it to work, it won't takes two not one..two. Also People quit bringing God into their lives and realationships with them and that's why everything is falling apart. God can and will get you through.
Also so....what about "me?" Not me specifaclly but the everday highschool kids "In Love." Since love is a choie I believe that highschoolers can be in Love, but to many times we want love to fast and we turn our Lust for Love into something thats close but not real (the common crush) when I sit back and look at all this going on all around me I have to pause and Im like "What The Shnecke?" Ya know? So...just think about this..is Lust? Love? Or You Lust for Love? Just something to think about...
