Miami Baptist Church Youth Group
Thank you everyone.
This experience has been great, Not only did I meet new people, But ive also gotten closer to god.
Doing all of your activities made me think... Like quiet time, At first I didnt realy like it just to be honest. But than.. I started getting into it, I even try and do it every day now. Ive gotten alot closer to god than I think I ever had.
I was so nervous when I saw you guys. I stood in the back the only one not wearing a yellow shirt. I wore a white one and than made Bob get me a yellow one becasue I felt uncomfortable. The first person I talked to was Thomas. Woooo boy!
What can I say about Thomas. I was mad at him at first because he snapped me with his bandana, me a totaly inoccent person that doesnt even know him! So I pretended to be upset about it and he kept appologizing over and over again. I finally forgave him. Saddly right after playing that Can Can game, Thomas, Sam and someone else, ( Im thinking its either SeaBass or George ( Not vanilla George)) And of course im the only girl left. Im trying to hold on the rope slipping out of my hands. My feet were literally off the ground and when they were on the ground, I was scuffling. All of the sudden Thomas gave me this HUGE tug and I went flying across the room. Thats when I got mad once again. But in the end I did forgive him and know we're the best of friends.
Than I started talking to numerous people Janette and George ( Vanila) Being my favorite two. They Always were there by my side no matter what, and I know im gonna miss them. Janette would talk to me all the time and sometimes I even got worried, because she was sick and would constantly throw up. Durring church I think the first time that we were all together in the church and listened to someone preach, I was scared. I sat next to her and lee and had to get up a few minutes into it. I was freaking out.. becasue I was getting into having another Panic Attack.
Thats my worst fear.. Panic Attacks Ive only had one before though, and it wasnt fun.
The first one out of few ive had was caused by what was supposed to be the greatest trip in my life.
I had never been to Universal, and thats where we went. Well Im having fun with my friends and it was great until the very end. The people had planned it poorly to where we had a little over twenty schools in one area to meet up with each other for departure. And my school was one of them. So at first I was ok. I started sweating and looked around to see my people in a huge area full of people. Than I couldnt breath. I started crying and was scared for my life. So one of my friends, Cory Cunnihgham was telling me to go to a secluded space and I had people clear room for me whereas I started hypervenillating. So I sat there trying to breath and than I had a park expert take me to a huge gated area and sat me in the middle with noone else around me. I started breathing better, She made me drink water and attemp to breath steadily. I was shaking half to death.
Than came the worst part, I had to get to my bus with at least ten schools left that surrounded me, I started breathing faster and faster my legs and fingers went numb, and I had my two friends beside me. Cory, And Rachel. They were talking to me trying to keep me awake I couldnt walk anymore though, so they got me into a wheelchair. All of the sudden theyre telling my friends to leave so I started freaking out and looked around And they were leaving to the bus and I thought I was alone. But I wasnt. God helped me through it. I finally had the strengh to talk and my exact words were: " Stop please tell them to come back... I cant do it without them." They wouldnt allow it though. So Im wheeling in my wheelchair about three hours from my home and my friends are gone. It took half an hour to find my bus and my teachers asked me if I was ok to board it. I said it was fine, and that I was ok. So I fell asleep and woke up my pocket vibratting. My hands were still shaky, but I was able to pick up the phone steadily. It was a text message from Alli.
It read: Omg! Judie are you ok?!?!?! It looked like you were going to die!!!!!!!!"
I started crying again. I realized I could have died, But God didnt want that.
And you guys helped me overcome my fear of panic attacks. I will know now to overcome them and everything else in my way to the obsticle course to God.
Once again I say thank you, For giving me this unforgettable experience.
