February 20, 2011- Corbin Aiken

Corbs, my only fellow Choctaw amongst a slew of Iroquois and Seminoles at ever camp get-together that goes down, I do appreciate you holding true to the red and gray with me! I always think it is funny when God decided to place people on your heart and when you get close with people. Corbin and I have been in the same place for 2 summers now and I feel as though I have gotten to know her better post camp this year then I ever did when we were a few feet away from each other. I'm certainly not complaining though because I couldn't be more thankful that I have gotten to know her heart and her relationship with the Lord a little better.


Corbin is unbelievable. I am not kidding at all when I say that she is one of the coolest people I have ever had the joy of getting to know. She speaks such wisdom and inspires such incredible conversation wherever she is, whomever she is with. Her heart is dedicated and beating strong for the one who loves her most and it is a beautiful relationship to get to see. She is such a beautiful light for Christ and truly lets Him shine through her every minute of every day. The thing I have taken away most from the little time I have been close to her is to always be honest with yourself. It is so easy to put on a front for everyone around so we don't have to deal with the bigger issues that we internally struggle with, but it only causes more pain. Corbs, thank so much for your constant encouragement and challenging me to deal with the hard things so that I can grow to be closer with Christ. I love you forever.


1 Peter 4:12-13
"Dear friends, don’t be surprised at the fiery trials you are going through, as if something strange were happening to you. Instead, be very glad—for these trials make you partners with Christ in his suffering, so that you will have the wonderful joy of seeing his glory when it is revealed to all the world."
