My summer

Hello!!!  Well, i know that i haven't talked to or seen many of you for a very very very long time!!  I just got home from Ireland, and boy it was it ever a great time!  Started off in a small rural village called Sneem and then on to Dublin, and finally to Galway.  It was beautiful, it was fun, and I would go back in a heartbeat!  Had an interesting trip back, with a 4 hour delay, a missed connecting flight to cleveland, and ending with a flight from philadelphia to pittsburg and a bus ride from pittsburg to cleveland airport.  Thank you very much US Airways!  Oh yeah, and somehow my luggage got lost between Philadelphia and Pittsburg!! AHHH!  Yes, very crazy i know!!

    Well, on to my summer now.  I am still dating Aubyn, and things are going oh so well.  She is the one that the Lord put here for me I believe, so how could that go wrong!?!  :)  Well, anyways, she had left for Camp Echoing Hills, a camp for people of all ages with disabilities, before I could get back, so i decided to drive down there and surprise her....it's in Warsaw.  Well, i went, i suprised, and then God did his work.  I sat in on a meeting they had with the founder, his name is Cordell Brown, and he has CP.  Somehow while he was talking God tugged on me and told me i should help out, so i decided to talk to the leader there and tell her that I would be willing to voluteer some hours during the summer to help if she needed it.  Well, God had bigger plans and I am now going to be a full time counselor at the camp.  I am nervous becasue I haven't worked with people with disabilities, but God wouldn't put me into something I couldn't handle, so i'm goin in with an open heart and a smile!  I'm moving in Tuesday, so it looks like I won't be seeing most of you for a while longer!!  Please sent me an email at nmiller6@kent.edu or send me a text or call me and let me know what you're doing!  I would love to hear from you all, i hate losing touch!! I will have Friday night through saturday night off every week, so maybe coffee is in the picture!  God Bless you all!!  Don't think i don't care just cause i'm not around!  :)  For all of you about to start college, the best of luck to you all!!

I know some of you out there are big prayer warriors, and I could use some of that!! Please pray that God would use my hands and my feet to serve him and that i would put all my trust into him!

Well people, it's been a while!  Hopefully you all are doing well!  I haven't had a chance to talk to hardly anyone lately!  I write this entry completely broke and completely broken.  I am going to go in and turn in my final $1000 for Ireland today, which leaves me with about $90 for the rest of the year!  HAHA, just money, no biggie.  God provides........Well, that's the broke part! 

I also write this completely broken.  I started attending 707, great Sunday night praise and worship service, and I have been changed.  I have found a great girl who is helping me as I'm helping her.  I feeeeel the presence of God now, it's like all of the sudden I realized that I had to open up my eyes to see!  HELLO! :)  I'm done playing the game of church, goin and seeing who i can fool.  I am broken and just beginning to be built back up with a foundation of Jesus Christ and pillars of the Holy Spirit.  So everyone out there who cares even a little bit about me, please hold me in your prayers.  I am changing I know, but I am so far away from where I want to be, and it is a daily struggle.

And also, if you could please pray that I would have patience.  Me and Aubyn (the aforementioned girl) have decided to fulfill her committment to not date until July 23rd.  I truly feel that this woman was placed in my life for a reason and not always showing how i feel will be hard, but by not dating each other we feel we can get the things sorted out that we need to with God.  Leaning wholly on him instead of each other for a little while.  So yes, if you know me at all you know this is gonna be difficult, but sooooo worth it and sooooo rewarding! 

Ok, this is real long, and if you read it all i am very impressed!  Don't be afraid to call if you need anything!  Let God love you all! I leave you with this from Philippians 4:6-7:

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything , by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
