Today is Sunday, the day of rest. A day that the Lord has made. Rejoice and be glad.
Today is my first day of actually quietness. It's weird. The first day that we have a full staff and it is quiet. We began the morning with Peter and I having devotions down at the lake before any one got up. It was strange just being able to hear the water and birds and not have any responsibilies expect to talk with God. Then it was time for worship and in the afternoon we spent one hour of alone time with God again. RIght now I am on free time while everyone else meets with Peter. I can look at it as being lonely but I would rather think of it as time to rest.
I really do like being here but it's still so new, it's taking a lot longer than I thought. And tomorrow we move to Camp Newport...another unfamiliar place. At moments like these I am so thankful for a God who never abandons us, no matter what part of the country or world I may be in. I was thinking all day of my church back in Calgary and really missing everyone there. It's true how you really don't truly appreciate things until they are gone. I can't wait to go back to my South Meadows family. For now I will focus on being blessed by my Camp Rainbow family.
My blogs have been very random lately - that is just how I've been feeling. Hope you can follow along!! It's quite the adventure!!

- Life is worth dancing about. Stop and be thankful for the little things in life, smile and then do a little dance - you will surprise yourself! My name is Amanda Gail Robinson and this blog is full of random everyday things that I experiance. I got married on August 27, 2005 to my best friend Peter - now that was something to dance about!

Amanda,
New surroundings are always hard to cope with, sometimes it can be a little scary, but remember to look towards the blue sky on the horizon. The blue sky in the distance is a soft reminder that the storm/scariness will only last for a little while, it won't kill you but it will make you stronger, the best of things/times are still to come. Keep trusting in God and everything will be alright. I'm here for you always, you can call me collect on my cell phone if you need to talk.
love ya tons

We miss you too Amanda. Ruby was dedicated this morning, what a beautiful little girl. I'm sending lots of hugs and prayers. I'm off to camp on Wednesday! And then I will be off to a new city...somehow I think I'll be able to relate to you more come September!
