This is my first post and my first quiet time since returning from our annual M-Fuge youth camp. I watched in awe and excitement as the Holy Spirit convicted souls of our youth this week. Jesus became real to several of our kids this week. They are now new creations in Christ, covered by the blood of Jesus, forgiven of their sins and heaven bound!!
Many things stood out as we worshipped and listed to the camp pastor last week.
2 Corinthians 5:21 hit me for the very first time. I have quoted it everyday since hearing it.
“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” NIV
This sacrifice by our Savior, Jesus, gives us the freedom to go out and be intentional. We are able to share the burden-lifting, peace-giving love of Christ by our daily actions.
Our smiles, our encouragement, our hugs and our desire to help people.
When was the last time you told someone (brother, sister, children, grandchildren, parents, pastor, etc) that you were “proud of them?”
Try to encourage someone today and watch their “eyes light up!”
I heard a new last week that keeps ringing in my head…it’s titled “We Must Go.”
Pay special attention to the plea, “keep us from just singing.”
Have a great day and be intentional. Make a difference for someone today!!!!!!
