RwR 26/6 to 2/7

A good week at camp and the end of Amino.

SoTW: Reborn – Two Steps From Hell / All To Jesus I Surrender – Winfield Weeden

Timecheck: 2:10am.

 

Pretty tired, but wanted to get this out tonight so here we go.

 

How I’ve been…

1. Physically:
   1. As evidenced by the timecheck, sleep cycles aren’t that easy to maintain.
   2. Not much sleep was had during the FOC camp (for which I haven’t yet wrote the reflection), but it was not for naught.
   3. Haven’t ran yet though x.x, other fitness is fine.
2. Mentally:
   1. Was kept active throughout the week…not so much for the weekend.
   2. Productivity was high during the camp spiritually…continued somewhat as the week drew to a close.
3. Emotionally:
   1. Ebbed and flowed throughout the camp, culminating in a difficult low on Saturday evening and blessed neutrality on Sunday morning.
4. Socially:
   1. Had the opportunity to meet a few new people during the camp, which wasn’t too bad.
   2. Also got to catch up with an old church friend on Sunday – unexpected but not unwelcome.
5. Spiritually:
   1. Really was challenged and grew significantly as a result during the camp.
   2. Amino-wise…had to make the difficult decision to leave there on grounds of prudent thought, but that also was a struggle which God eventually won out on.
   3. Good support systems helped immensely during and after the camp – the ‘spiritual high’ is not forgotten, but treasured.
6. Character improvements:
   1. A definite improvement in areas outside of nailbiting. Hopefully this continues.
7. Hobbies:
   1. A bit of Overwatch upon my return and some Insurgency, which isn’t too bad a game but gave some motion sickness. Got used to it over time though.
   2. Nothing on drums and guitar sadly, though I did get to play the guitar a bit when I brought it for the camp.
8. Random thoughts:
   1. “It’s really difficult to sing these lyrics when my heart’s anguished about the right thing to do…but…I can do it by God’s strength and faith anyway…”
   2. “It’s like throwing a drug addict into a mountain of cocaine…he’ll enjoy it definitely for the short term, but in the long term it will destroy him…”
   3. “Sometimes the most difficult thing to do is to say no to what you want most, when it’s right in front of you, because you know itsa trap.”
9. Week ahead:
   1. Some meetups for friends and work before packing for my ICT next week.
10. Prayer for upcoming week:
    1. Diligence, for what needs to be done.
    2. Empathy, for getting the direction when leading others.
    3. Wisdom, to know who to ask.
