Trip to Hawaii

Today I am leaving at 4:45PM for the big island of Hawaii. I am going to be working at the Winds Christian Camp for six weeks starting Monday, June 11. The first two weeks are staff training and preparation in and around Hilo. The last four weeks will be spent at a little camp nestled between the volcanos working with teens and junior age kids from a wide variety of backgrounds.
I am going to try to post prayer updates as much as possible, but am not sure what access I will have to email or the internet. If I am unable to post myself, I am going to call my mom with updates and have her post my news for me.
Thanks for praying!

Let me explain...

I'm sure the first thing everyone is going to ask is "where did that title come from?" It is taken from Ezra 7:6-10 which says "...Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the LORD his God upon him... And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month,...according to the good hand of his God upon him. For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments. For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments."
My attention was drawn to this passage and specific phrase through a series of messages given by Dr. Matt Olsen--the president of Northland Baptist Bible College, my alma mater. If you would like to listen to them, they can be found on sermonaudio.com.
The purpose of this blog site is to share evidence of God's hand and work through the ministry opportunities He gives me this summer and in the future. My desire is to give all the praise and glory to Him for the work He accomplishes through me this summer!
