a heart for the youth
here i am... sitting in my new office... with everyone... missing.
well, apparently, everyone is at a conference, n thus... free time to blog. AT LONG LAST.
recently, there has been an upsurge of sentiments for the youths n inwardly, i'm jumping for joy. for all along, my heart is for the youth(i'm one too myself!! :p), n i'm just so glad tat God heard my prayers to move pastor in that direction.
i have been to fcbc n chc youth services b4, n one word - POWER. they get their youths involved, n thou it may seem for 'other' reasons, but the introduction of such activities make the youths bond together n have a chance to know God better.
pls understand me, i'm not saying that our youth services is bad. it's not. the word preached is AWESOME. come n u'll know. e thing tat is different is tat our youth service lack tat... 'oomph'. it feels so adult. it feels so... mature. good in a sense whereby the youths get great examples n role models to follow... but is that YOUTH?!?! imo, youth should be a place where one can express themselves, where they can dare to be different from the norm, where they can explore n yet be within safe boundaries under the supervision of the safe eyes of the leaders. why is our youth services missing that?? but praise God tat's all going to change. or more fair to say, changing. :)
wendy just spook on tues that pastor wanted to meet with the leaders n she felt that it was regarding the youths. oh praise God, amen!!! so glad that God is hearing my prayers. muahaha.
i can't wait till the day, when my dream is fulfilled... when youths around the world will unite under one banner, the banner carrying the name of my Saviour's Name - Jesus, praising n jumping n shouting. yeah, this is the generation where all these will happen!! amen!!
at this moment, my heart is bursting wif emotions... i seriously dun know wat to say or type... just tat wat wendy said realli sparked it off all over again... yes, i'm passionate abt helping the youths, i'm passionate abt singing, n above all else, i'm passionate about loving Him. n Him loving me. oh gosh... the glory tat has shone... in my life, for His glory for wat He has done so far in my life, how wat has been taken away, He has given much more... like a job, my life even.
many times i've failed
still Your mercies remain
and should i stumble again
i'm caught in Your grace
neverending
your light will shine when all else fails
everlasting
your glory goes beyond all fame
yeah... Lord, let every youth out there, young or old, thin or fat, tall or short, square or round or oval or rectangle, let Your love fill them. fill them so much tat they know tat they have a dream giver in You. tat they hav a dream fulfiller in You. tat every dream, no matter how big, how small, is but a promise from You to them. n all promises in You, are yes n amen.
i know this post seems realli disorganised n has no real point... but realli, i'm just so full i dun know where to start or end. haha.
shalom
