Today I rode in a van full of youth and 2 other adults as we headed to a youth rally. We metat the church at 5:30 a.m. if they didn't want to be there, they wouldn't have been up and ready to go by then. But, they were-and without much complaint about the early hour.
We spent the day worshipping, learning, and sharing with each other. The focus was on being a light for God. We heard from several people who are shining their lights. One girl who is only 14 shared her story and her talents with us. She has a passion for helping others and at the age of 10 realized she could use the gift of her voice to raise money for missions.
For awhile now, I have been struggling with finding the right music for the youth to sing during the 30 hour famine and Methodist swag week. Last year, they found so much from the 2 songs we sang. When I heard this young girl sing her 1st 2 songs, I knew they were perfect!
So, where was God today? There were so many ways He was working in the lives of my youth and all of the people atbthe rally. And He blessed me with the answer to my music hopes.
Blessings,
Jennifer
