Once a Girl Scout always a Girl Scout

I joined the Brownies when I was very little and went on to be a Girl Scout.  Some of my best memories are from trips we took and the things I learned.  I made it all the way to Cadette before I quit right before high school.  Now that I look back on that time in my life I see the true purpose and maybe one day I can lead a young group of women to discover those same lessons.

The Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

 
I will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,
and to
respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout

See the light ahead of me

I stand in the darkness of this path I have been following.
Now I see the light skimming the surface and this is the way I want to go.
I know this is the way God wants me to turn.  Hopefully I won't disappoint Him.
Now that I see this light can I stick to it or will I fail again?
If I fail another time I know that God will guide me out of this fog.
He is always waiting and I will don't want to stay stuck here any longer.
I know I'm gonna fall down, but He won't let me drown.

If all I worry about is failing I cannot see that light ahead because I'm not focusing on what the real path is.
Now I need to turn to Him and follow Him. No worries. Just faith.
