Happy Easter!

So today marks a very important day. It's Easter. For some it's a time to take pictures with a creepy bunny. For others it's a time to get all dressed up and take selfies. For others it's just another holiday. But for me it is so much more. Today marks the event that changed my life and the lives of many others forever. For those who do not know, today marks the time when Jesus rose from the grave. Wow. Even typing it seems so crazy and surreal all at the same time. It's such an incredible moment because it shows just how much God loved us.. He sent his son to die for us, be buried, and then when you think it can't get any better He rose from the grave. What an incredible way to show your love.

Which brings me to reason number 21 I am stoked for Look Up-God's love. Yes, I experience God's love everyday, but there is something unique about the camp life that sets up perfect opportunities to be loved on by God himself. On the rare occasion I was able to just sit back and watch campers screaming and chasing one another, life guards doing what they do best (guarding lives, duh), and the chaperones trying to keep up with all 27 excited middle school girls, I would think WOW. Yes, I was tired and a bit delusional but in the small moments of the chaotic day I was able to see God's love displayed so clearly through a happy camper or staffers riding the swing with their kids for the 20th time that summer. I am excited  to see all that happens this summer and look forward to seeing God's love on display.

Til tomorrow.
Which is technically now.
