Come Away


During camp this song spoke to many of us. It was during the song "Jesus Paid it All" that God told me to "go" and this was the song that Matt Papa played next.

This was the song that God used to answer my sweet seventh grader with a "yes" that she would be going to Honduras.

It was the song God used to call other friends overseas, one of them to the middle east.

The presence of God was so weighty at camp that you couldn't ignore Him even if you wanted to. :) This is what it means to be Devoted:
  • to set apart for a special purpose
  • to be dedicated to something completely
  • to give all of one's self
  • to abandon (to leave with no intention of returning) everything for the sake of something greater
And that's what the four of us (at least, I know there were more that I haven't heard about) resolved to do.

Genesis 12:1
Deuteronomy 6:5
Matthew 28:17-20
