The Fire

There's something special about campfires. There's something extra special about campfires at kaleo. This past campfire was no exception.

We made our way down to the beach late one night last week and started a fire. Well some of us did, others of us went and collected roasting sticks, and others just sat and enjoyed the stars camping in the night sky.

The night was simple, we roasted marsh mellows, Justin read us the story of Jonah, and then we sang some worship songs to our father.

It was simple, but it was so powerful. I remember the joy that came over me as we lifted up our voices to the Lord. One song would end and then soon after, but not too soon after someone would start singing something else and we would sing some more.

The night ended with us all being very thankful to God and voicing that in prayer. God has truly blessed us this year and the campfire reminded me just how much.
