Remembering my time wrangling and teaching in Pennsylvania at Camp Allegheny. 💜
After making the little girl, God said:
“You’ll need something to lean on. Something with substance that will teach you the value of hard work, perseverance, and to never give up. A thing that won’t cast judgment when you mess up in life. Because you will often, it’s just part of growing up and becoming a decent human."
"You’ll need something whose impressive physical presence must be respected at all times. A being who could break your bones in a whisper but will never break your heart. A creature who will be there for you when you cry for hours after someone you love lets you down. An unspeaking breathing being that will teach you to check all the noise in your head and completely listen to what he is saying."
“Sometimes in life you need to let go and just hang on. I call this trust. The terrifying ability to follow something blindly out of the conviction of only your heart. It will keep you centered and restore your faith when life happens. When you realize that you are forgettable to the world you won’t be to this creature."
"Something that will keep you truly humbled yet teach you how to fly!"
“You need to understand the painful reality of death. Sometimes it’s ok to let go. That kindness will always be rewarded before the use of force. And that courage means trusting him to get you safely to the other side."
“Something to get you out of bed in the trying times. When you feel like you have nothing he will remind you that you are still wanted. Something to give you perspective about what’s really important in life."
“You’ll need a best friend. Do not take this relationship lightly. It just might save your life someday when you see no out. Treasure it always I’m trusting it to you to take care of for a reason."
“A creature who will restore your faith about all of the goodness in the world even when you are so broken down that you cast Me aside."
“In turn with time and healing he will bring you back to Me. Know that your struggle won’t be made alone, and don’t forget to enjoy the ride."
"So I will make a horse.” - Anon
God Bless our fantastic kids and awesome leaders as they spend the weekend at Camp Allegheny. As they fellowship, have fun, and enrich their faith pray that the Holy Spirit comfort them and surround them and as that they all leave with a renewed energy to take the word of Christ and LIVE IT!
So I went to this camp in the mid sixties and had many wonderful memories. We drove around the camp recently and spoke with the camp director, Thank you. I would appreciate it if someone could share pictures of what the camp looked like in the mid Sixties. I remember small side by side wooden cabins with steps down the front. There was a craft hall. Please share if you can.
Thanks
