Rock-n-water

Tomorrow I embark on my trip with the First Presbyterians high school youth group.
We're going to Rock-N-Water. A camp up near the American River. We're going white water rafting. =)
The last time I went, I was actually in the youth group. That was about 5 years ago.
Wow Im old..
To be honest It caught me off-guard.
Something that would fall under the "Random" Category in my book.
Only because it's random and foreign to my thoughts. All of my thoughts have been consumed by this next coming month. Going on tour, planning parts of it still, getting ready in general. The "Work" list never ceases to end. But thats life right?
Im always surprised as to how God displays His perfect timing, in the middle of my worst. Right when I thought the spring on the scale was going to explode under so much weight, Im sitting in Day 1 (First Pres.'s High School Sunday morning service) and The Rock-N-Water ad comes up. The revelation hit me that I was going to that. Immediately, like a pack of wolves, my thoughts of tour, lists, and business, jumped the thought of me escaping for while. You don't have time for that!!, When will you get the things you need to get done if you go to that?, It's a waste of time-You don't have any!, What will happen if you don't get the things done?
My whole life I've been afraid of failure, and this is a time where being afraid of failure, almost made me fail.
I asked for help. and I heard Hear it is René. An Escape. A chance to focus only on me. To recharge. But..
there is one condition, You have to trust me and give this huge weight to me.
I've been so exhausted that Im gladly doing just that. Trying at least...
With that, I'm eagerly looking forward to this week. A week in another world, so distant from my cell phone, computer, contacts, etc.. It's exactly what I need.
Jesus, You've been right this whole time...Thank you.
