God's timing

Last week we had an awesome camp. On Wednesday night 30 something kids excepted Christ. That was about 9:00 at night. At 2:30 the next morning I was awakened by my friend Marge. She told me that she had just received the phone call from Holly that our friend Pete had passed on. I got up, grabbed my phone and headed to the leader cabin to let Chad and Matt know. On the way I called the male counselors who were with us at camp. When I got back to my cabin I let Melissa and Patti know as well. So there we were me, Marge, Melissa, Patti, Brian, and Nester, at 3:00 in the morning, exhausted from camp with tear filled eyes over the loss of our friend. We all came together remembering good stories, and comforting each other. We held hands and prayed together, laughing and crying at the things we thought Pete would be saying at that moment. As we rejoiced over the 32 salvations Pete rejoiced with the angels. At no other time would the 6 of us had been together at 3:00 in the morning when we needed each other the most. God's timing was perfect.
