Well there is nothing like one of the people in your camp group catching on fire to remind you of just how fragile this human body we have is. Yes, you read correctly. A large group of us headed up to the
Sequoia National Forest last weekend and had a total blast..............well except the part that one of us caught on fire. I will spare you all the details, but suffice it to say it involved the desire to burn ants, the desire to catch it on film, and a
Styrofoam cup of white fuel. Yup, that is a recipe for disaster if I ever read one.
We all did learn that our God truly is good in the midst of trails. The person who got hot burning fuel dumped on him was wearing a fire retardant shirt. If the cup of fire was thrown in the other direction it would have caught 6 women on fire instead of one person. The burns ended up being 2
nd degree and isolated to small area on the chest and stomach. The recovery, though painful, will only be very uncomfortable for a few days. It also encouraged all of us to heed that little voice in our head that says......"what your about to do is completely stupid so you shouldn't do it". And I am pointing the finger at myself also, I haven't set someone on fire yet, but done my fair share of stupid stupid things.
