My Complain-Fast

It’s time for me to go on a fast.

I’ve been grumbling and complaining about this upcoming dirt-camping trip.

Alot.

God’s Word convicted me today.

Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life—in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing. Philippians 2:14 NIV

For the rest of this week, I’m going to focus on the good things about being gone four days with an insane amount of pre-teens. As a matter of fact, I think I’ll take a few lessons from this adorable Ms. Happy-pants in the video below.

I bet she’s never camped in the dirt before.
