Doe eyes... lamest message of my life. I knew you were going to own LeFave, I DEMAND a re-entry!



Como estas, banditas!?

It is me... Kevin. The Cautious. I think I would like to change my name... if that is alright. I've officially realized that my true area of neglect is faithfulness. The reason I wanted to be cautious was because I didn't want to stray from God's will. I want to be PRO-active and on the offense, being cautious allows me to be passive.

Whoa. The things you don't realize that are waiting to come out until you hit a keyboard.

Well. My friend Laura and I have had a blast painting together for the last 7 weeks and made some good money... I backed into a parked car the second week after being home, so that may very well turn my "good" money into "ok" money... but hey. God is bigger than green paper. It's been good to spend so much time for her, being able to offer her solid words while the relationship between her parents as well as the faith of her mother continues to crumble. Pray that in her next year of school, God would build her back up in a way most pleasing to him.

I'm feeling okay about this sermon, which I'm giving JUNE 29 if anyone wants to come. (Anyone know how to convert a tape recording into a digital recording?) I feel really good about the material I've got together so far, but I'd love prayer if God would continue to refine it and put all of its components into a sequence of the greatest mastery. muah haha! I thought that I had FINALLY come to an end after Kaleo of exploring my past and figuring out why the Hell (quite seriously) I went down the road I did. But this 7-8 week sermon writing process has led me to read some incredible material which... I'm gash darn thankful for. Understanding that in my case same-sex attraction was a symptom of a much greater void in my heart has been... a sign of the furtherance of the Kingdom of Jesus (I am such a Bible school). He continues today to reveal the 'heart' of matters.

I'm also officially a Resource Counselor at my camp (a mix of head counselor, staff concierge, mediator between leadership and staff, and odd-job handler... when you aren't a mega-camp like Qwanoes, one position isn't always a single position). I cannot believe that everything I said would happen is actually happening.

And I'm going to Briercrest! And Justin Lenny (the reason I began considering Bridal quest in the first place) is my freaking RA. AND Rob is my roomy #1 and Jon and Jordan are right beside us! I don't always feel so hot on life, but when I look at a blog like this... It's not hard to know Joy.

I do not know my 'official' RC e-mail at camp, but you can probably still use my g-mail. I'll be at camp Squeah on Saturday, so if you would like to try phoning you can call 1-800-380-CAMP... but it may be better if we schedule calls. My address is
#4 - 27915 Trans Canada Hwy
Hope, B.C.
V0X, 1L0

Life is HAPPENING. I love you all. I love Kaleo.


PS if someone has any info as to who used a freaking airsoft gun in 209, I would love to know because being charged for damage that I wasn't even aware existed is an awfully unpleasant affair. May the Spirit convict you!

Hey Kevin! That's MY name, remember? Faithful Jim. That's okay, I can share my name with you, and my desire to remain faithful. I'm still investigating the airsoft thing, so don't get your shorts tied in knots. But if anyone does know anything about it...

And Jahnaya!!! What are you saying??!!?? Oh, you're such a mischief...
