BASICally

Tonight was the first time I had made it to BASIC in quite a while.  Thursday ends up being the day that group projects happen, or I get sick.  I was really excited to go this week!  As I walked in, I chatted with one of the girls from my Bible Study for a while and then met up with Jay.

I just love the worship time at BASIC!  Tonight had a lot of songs that are my favorite.  We sang In Christ Alone, which has been one of my favorites since my youth group days.  When we got to this part,

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Could ever pluck me from His hand

I thought of a camper from Junior 1.  She was having nightmares that Satan was laughing at her and trying to take her.  I had never heard stories like this before and it scared me.  Sometime during the week, this little girl accepted Christ.  She still had at least one of those nightmares at camp, but I assured her that she was safe.  Later, after Junior camp was over, I found a verse that was perfect for her situation.  Ironically, I can't remember and can't find it now.

Hosanna hit me in a good way tonight.  This week, I've noticed how I'd begun to take parts of my life back from God.  Before Hosanna, there was a song about surrender, but I can't remember that song either.  Sweet relief comes when surrendering my life to God.

I see his love and mercy 
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing

Couldn't have asked for a better night of worshiping my King!  :)
