First week of School of Worship!

hello Friend of Camila (FOC)! Hope this post finds you all well and happy.
Well, I can't believe it's only Friday of the first week. So much has happened in the way of spiritual growth and revelation and creativity in the past four days that it feels more like two or three weeks! I'm glad that my days are so full; it gives me very little time to be homesick or miss my family. I dearly love them, but most of the time I try to put them out of my mind, only because otherwise it hurts a lot.
On a happier note, School of Worship. God has more than proved and confirmed that I'm supposed to be here. The last week has been much more than incredible. I will try to sum it up somehow, but I probably won't do it justice.

Monday:
We had a worship night with the discipleship training school and God's presence was so thick. There are a lot of worshipers in that group.

Tuesday:
We had a jam session together, all 15 of us, so that the leaders could figure out what cell bands to put us into. That was awesome, and brought a lot of unity.
I started reading the book "God Songs" that we have a book report on, and got really excited about the potential for writing worship songs. What especially stuck out to me was "When you get an idea, WRITE IT DOWN". But I wasn't expecting to use that knowledge so soon...God woke me up at about 2 am and started flowing words, concepts, and ideas through my head. It was as if he was asking me, "Will you be faithful no matter what time it is?" And I'm glad I did wake up. I actually never went back to sleep, and finally came out to the lobby because I felt he had a lot more to talk to me about, so I just never went back to sleep that day. BUT--it was so worth it!

Wednesday:
One of the staff members came in and talked about the significance of the Shofar in the context of the Bible and Jewish history, and actually quoted one of the verses God had put on my heart the night before!!

Thursday:
We had a beautiful morning session and then a powerful afternoon one. And then a party at night! dancing :)

Friday: Well, that's today! Who knows what could happen?

Resting In Grace,
Camila
