This year i dont feel as close with my leaders,
i feel as though we lack fellowship and are not bound together by his word
but ripped apart by insecurities of new grounds
people never know when someone is going to show up
and when there's an oppourtunity presented to leaders to rise up and speak truth into these kids lives, they are speechless and not feeling "lead by God"
It all comes down to time management
i am sick and tired of people only being leaders 3 hours a week.
I can only talk as much as i want, but it does nothing if you dont listen
When i signed up to be a leader, i expected it to be more than 3 hours a week.
i knew it was, and was prepared to do just that.
hang out with my girls, talk with my girls other than one night a week, go to their sports games, whatever it may be, i would and continue to try and be there as much as i can be.
I know that most people are in school or work full time or something, but would it Really kill you to take an hour or two out of your busy scheduel?
5 minutes, may make the difference in someones week, whether they be in the middle of school, family issues, exciting news or they just need to talk. Them knowing that you're there will make their life SO much easier.
Also; just because you go to bible college doesn't mean you are any better/smarter than any other of the leaders or more godly.
Further-more, If we are called to be a body, we need to function like one.
be there for one another,
let each other know if you arnt going to be there
see how each other are doing
ask if they need prayer
grow in god, so you will be equipped in his word and can influence others.
I can be the first to speak up, and voice my opinion, but i cant be the only one.
you can't always walk a straight line
the world doesn't work that way, the earth is curved
as are our lives,
sometimes you've got to bend when circumstances come along, go out of your way to make things right again.
roll with the punches
To have extraordinairy experiences with your kids, you've got to be an extraordinairy leader.
you can't expect to have a huge impact in these girls lives if you dont show an interest outside of youth. you could, but its very unlikely
For kids to be reached, we need to reach out.
