This past weekend was awesome....i got to see my friend/mentor/former teacher & coach Jana!!! she brings her youth group down to ocean city for the weekend and picks me up on her way through dover....and then we get to hang out for a weekend...it is always fun to see jana and to catch up....oh how i wish she lived closer...
jana and i go back to days at CHS...jana was a coach and my PE (for you jana) teacher...she was also the person who challenged to me grab onto what is means to truly love Jesus and love other people like he loved me....jana constantly challenged me and still challenges me to grow in my faith and i am forever grateful to God for placing Jana in my life...
i feel like there are a lot of people who have played pretty significant roles in my life who i have lost touch with or haven't seen in ages....people like sabrina, erin, beth, megs, ashley, and sarah to name a few...(if i forgot you i didn't mean to i was just giving for instances)...these people have all played a role in my life that has changed me and helped to mold me into who i am today...
this has made me think about my job with Young Life and how hopefully i will be a person in a kids like who made a difference and played a significant role in their life...i pray that God will use me in the lives of kids like he used people like Jana in my own life...
i encourage you to pray for God to place a person in your life who you will be able to mold and make a difference in...trust me it will be a blessing to both of you!!!

I'm so glad you had a great weekend with Jana. I'm sure you have already been a huge blessing many times over to many of your kids already. :)
