laughing out loud

The last push to get everything ready for camp can be a bit stressful. I’m especially focused on all the tech stuff, thinking that it will have a huge impact on kids at camp. I’m so focused on my work that I forget about my main job, which is staying attached to the vine. After all, I am not the Gardner, I AM is.

So it’s ironic when I get up to camp and realize we have no electricity. A storm came through and took out the power, and who knows for sure when it will be restored. All my hard work and hand wringing for nothing; my slick power point stuff is useless without electricity.

“Apart from me you can do nothing”

I’m laughing out loud right now. God, you have such a great sense of humor. I love the way You get my attention.

I like that you were able to see the power going out as a reminder to focus on the Vine. Sweet man. A good reminder to all of us.
