My youth group just got back on Sunday from a weekend of sking, snowboarding, swimming and ice skating. Sounds fun right?
It wasnt' all fun and games with some of the closest friends I have thought. We learned a very important lesson about hungering for God. One thing I'll never forget about Winter White Wash is that it was the first youth rally I ever went to. I had a weird reminder of the topic last year too though.
I have recently been trying to get more music on my iPad 2 (Mostly because I only had one album and was getting "reminded" of that fact a lot). I got this keyboard which I now use and a good sum of iTunes money when I got back from the trip. I bought two new apps and three albums. (Which by the way brings me up to four albums! Yes!!!)
Anyway one of the albums I got was Kari Jobe's "Where I Find You." Kari Jobe has always been one of my favorite worship artists but there was a song that struck a chord with me. There's a song called "We Are" and it talks about how we are the light of the world which is referenced from Jesus.
“You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its flavor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled on by people. You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill cannot be hidden. People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good deeds and give honor to your Father in heaven. (Matthew 5:13-16 NET)
Which is what we learned about last year at Winter White Wash! Like exactly. It's crazy how much this song reminds me of that trip last year. Its great to have the reminder! God is good!
