Getting Ready for Caleb

For those of you who don't know, I am very seriously considering (and am 99% that I am going to) apply for the Caleb Project this summer at Hume Lake. It is a four week discipleship program at the same location as their wildwood camp (that I went to last year). They have two sessions, each one with six guys and six girls. I think that it would be really good for me spiritually right now. My one week at Hume last year built me up so much, but I have been constantly torn down since then. It's the time alone, away from these distractions, away from the computer, the pointless games that I engross myself in, away from spider solitair, away from CSI, and Cold Case. Away from people that I know (unless Kelsey goes to, which would be totally awesome) away from my family, away from normality. I want to go into Caleb ready to grow, and I don't know if I am right now, but God will provide whatever needs to be for his plan to be worked out.

So, I have been trying my hardest to get my application completed (which is due the first of march) I have one reference form of four that has been given back to me (Yay for Becky, you rock!) and have written five pages worth of essays, with only seven more questions to go. Even if I don't get into the Caleb Project, the getting ready part had challenged me to grow. The next challenge is finishing the essays (which I saved the ones I don't want to do for last, of course) and getting the money... it's really expensive, but I'll be able to pay for it if I have to pay for it all myself.
