I've not dropped off the face of the earth, been attacked by wild hogs & hospitalized for the injuries, or had a heart attack & died ... I'm simply a youth pastor's wife in the summer. If you are one yourself, or are the family member of one, you know what I'm talking about:
- Church Camp
- Mission Trip
- Bible Boot Camp
- Leadership Conference(s)
- Youth Conference(s)
- Regular summer activities
When I think I can't get any busier, someone or something piles more on top of the stack. Do I love the busy-ness? No. Do I love being gone from home so much? No. Do I love being away from my family & church family? No. But, I love the benefits - growing closer to our students, growing in the Lord myself, learning more about students and student ministry, pouring myself into the lives of those who are willing to learn & grow, and serving God wherever He leads me. Yep; I'd say it's a win/win situation!
So, until the summer "rush" is over ... "THAT'S ALL FOLKS!"
