[__ Prayer __] Two prayer requests

[Claudya]

There are two things that I feel I should ask your prayers for.
The first thing is my vacation. I am participating in a huge christian camping event. We're expecting 2000 people this year that's a new record and that number is posing quite a challenge to the organisers. But participant numbers growing with each year is a sign of God blessing this camp, right?
The 2000ish people stay in tents or trailers for a week and enjoy worship, workshops, community and fun together. The camp consists of smaller communities who live together in "villages" of 50 - 150 people. I'm one of the volunteers that take care of one of the "villages". My village will be specifically for single people or people who couldn't take their spouse with them. A bunch of people are single parents with their kids, so we gonna have a bunch of children in this village, too. We're gonna be around 70 people. I did the very same volunteer job last year and it was awesome. I felt very blessed and the village community was lots of fun. Many people will be back this year, so it must have been good last year. So please pray for me that God will use me to create a good spiritual, social and fun atmosphere for this village. May He bless everyone that comes here. And I pray He will strengthwn me to do this work for Him. Keep in mind, I'm mentally ill and absolutely unsuited for this job. But somhow I still managed it last year. And last year the Bible story of Peter walking over the water came up during the camp several times, so I guess that's what God wanted me to experience. Pray that I will be doing fine again this year.

The camp is gonna start on friday. But many of the volunteers involved come here earlier to help with the preparations (building the big gathering tents, the work shop tents, and such). I came here today so I can have enough time for preparing the village before the real action starts. I'm lying in my tent typing on my cell phone right now. Friday will be a heavy day. My co-volunteer who will be supervising this village with me will only arrive on Friday because of his job. Until then I'm on my own, but that's okay. Three of the village inhabitants are here already, too, because they had some volunteer jobs as well. We had a great afternoon, long and awesome conversation, while drinking coffee.

May your camp truly bring glory to God, and I pray that you are in His perfect will as to your godly service in Jesus' name.

 

[Claudya]

I hate typing on my phone. But since I promised you two requests, here's the other one.
My boss at work and I are having a ... complicated ... yet positive relationship. I care a lot for him. He's an awesome and inspiring personality. He likes me, too, and considers me somewhat of a friend. Also, there's a great deal of sexual attraction going on between us.
So please pray that we get to some sort of friendship that'll work on the long run. I'm really confused about what I feel for him.
So please pray that God will make things right.

hey, claudya...I'll be praying for you!

 

[AirDancer]

How exciting, Claudya ! The camp sounds like a lot of fun and definitely a time of jubilation in our Lord!

Prayers for a positively successful time, with all hearts strengthened with love for our Lord. Also, prayers that our Lord will guide your relationship with your boss in accordance to His will for both of you.

 

[Angel]

Hey Claudya, I'll be keeping you in my prayers, for the camp and boss thing. Let us know all about it!

 

[GrannyJ]

Thank you God that Claudya is serving You in this way in spite of her illness. And may she keep her eyes on you all the time, so that she can keep walking on the water. May she be a blessing to all those people, and also may she have fun too. And please give her wisdom in her relationship with her boss.

Praying that everything goes well at camp Claudya.

 

[Claudya]

So far I have been challenged to handle anger... some people, especially men, are hard to deal with because they automatically think they know stuff better than me just because of that one chromosome... even if they have no clue what they are talking about. And then they expect me to be thankfull for their unasked for "help". I need for calm to handle that kind of stuff. I'll have to try talking to some real life person. Oh well. Plus, we're gonna get a storm very soon.

Sent another prayer for you. 2000 people for a week long camp is a lot of people. I have never heard of anything like this in the U.S.

 

[GrannyJ]

Praying it all works out.

 

[Angel]

Praying you are given respect.

Thanks for your prayers! Yes it'd quite a huge camp. It's a big adventure and a blessing every year!
Maybe you guys don't have summer camps like this one, bu in the USA there are churches with like 4000 people attending in regular services each sunday.

 

[Claudya]

Thanks, GrannyJ and Angel. I feel kind of silly for getting so angry earlier. I had lots of fun today and many good encounters with people.There's absolutely no reason to let one sngle person ruin it for me. :D Thanks for your prayers. Tomorrow will be the big day of everyone's arrival. Lots of work to do I'm half excited and happy, and half scared.

 

[Angel]

my prayers are behind you!
