Messes and 'fesses

Dear Father,

Things are, as You know, kind of in a mess right now. Slow communiqués and exams and school and life in general have led to quite a confusing state of affairs. In spite of this Father, I believe that You are still in charge of the camp planning. Only You know where you want to bring our participants, and their journey during the four days may be planned by us, but its true outcome is plotted by You.

Father, I commit the planning again to You. May Your strength and glory be shown in our weakness, that in the midst of the messiness and all, that Your sovereignty be made known to all. I pray that You send encouragement to Your workers who are labouring for You. May You take away the bad pride that is within us, and show us Your grace in our humility. If we have taken the glory away from You, and have made You too small in our eyes, Lord, please forgive us, and show us the way we should behave.

You know the problems that we face - budget, manpower, and more - I pray that You show us how to deal with the problems, and provide solutions to the challenges that we face.

We're having a meeting on Saturday to discuss certain things. I pray that the meeting may be effective and useful, and that we may be reminded and rededicated to the work that we have agreed to do in Your name.

In Jesus' name,
amen.
