The Baby & The Baby Room



The baby room has been completed, and as you can see we've pretty much settled on the name as well. Cynthia and I felt it was important to pay close attention to the meaning of the name we picked out. Eva means "life". I have to admit that the fact that baby Camp (a.k.a. Eva) has managed to kick my wife's butt from the inside out was one of the reasons for choosing this name. She is a very lively and active girl. She also represents the lives that God has restored. Cynthia and I are so blessed to share our lives as one now. God has breathed LIFE in us again. Grace seems kind of obvious. I believe it is important to live a life of grace. Jesus showed us through His life what it means to live, talk, and breathe grace. It is our prayer for this new little life that she grows up to live that life of grace to others.

We eagerly anticipate the arrival of our new addition to the family; Eva Grace Camp.

Revitalize Your Quiet Times



From time to time we are all in need of some direction when it comes to the "How" for our quiet times. Our pastor suggested a Life Journal a few weeks back and I thought it sounded interesting. It's basically a way for an individual to write their own devotional while reading the bible through in a year. Each day you read the chapters for that day. Once you've read the assignment you then turn to the daily pages. The daily pages are used to record how God has spoke to you that day through His scripture. Write a title for what He said to you, record the date and page number at the top of the page. The Life Journal suggests using the S.O.A.P. strategy for writing. First, write the [S]cripture that spoke to you that day. Next, [O]bserve what the scripture is saying and how it applies to life. [A]pplication is writing about how the verse spoke to you in your current situation whether it be a challenge, conviction, a call to action, or promise for you. Finally, Write your [P]rayer to God. There's also prayer request pages to write and track prayer requests. It's an incredible tool for anyone needing some direction for their quite times. Cynthia and I have been using it and it's just been awesome. I can't wait to have written my first complete devotional and look back and see what God has done in our lives.
Here's the web address. Order your today!

"Zacchaeus was a wee little man..."

Scoot Your Booty Race

One of my friends from work bought the game "Chicken Limbo" and gave it to us.



We played limbo for awhile, but after getting bored with it we found a new game to play. Behold.......Booty Scoot Race!
