I might just be insane.
As some of my readers may know, I was the middle school boys youth sponsor for Ignite Student Ministry last year. Working with theses boys was an awesome although sometimes very challenging experience. They are all great kids and I have really missed them since I made the choice to step down as their sponsor at the beginning of my school year. We attended the Believe conference at the Gwinnett Civic Center in 2007 and just had a great time and we all really bonded. Later that year the kids all attended Know Sweat, a middle school retreat that focuses on being a Godly servant to those in need. Due to work, I was not able to make this trip and I heard that I really missed out on a great time. Well, I am making up for it this year.
Tonight I committed to attending Know Sweat in Memphis TN with 18 middle schoolers. I may have lost my mind, but honestly I am really looking forward to a week with these kids. I can't wait to get to know the kids that are new since my departure and to get reacquainted with the ones I already know. But more so, I cannot wait to be a part of what God is going to do through this program. I can't wait to help teach these kids about being servants for God, but more so, I know that they have a few lessons to teach me.
