And it shouldn t be that way. Education and openness is a key way to prevent a lot of the problems that come with dating and intimacy out side of marriage. Having someone who you trust and telling them your problems as not to hold you accountable like God will, but to be a support !! There is noting more helpful when going through a trial or a temptation than to have a friend who truly cares about you standing with you and supporting you. Tell friend what you struggle with. Another mind blowing thing that happened was that well over 6,000 people gave their hearts to the Lord on that weekend. They made a public profession of faith and trust in our Lord Jesus Christ before 75,000 people and accepted Christ into their hearts. The expressions on the face of the young AND old as they walked to the prayer room was inexpressible. It was because they will no longer live in the bondage of sin and addiction but have given the reigns of their life to Jesus Christ the creator of our very beings !! Words cannot express the experience in the Lord that I had on that weekend. But Jesus Christ walked with me enabled me to encourage hurting people and help those in need. There were times when we all laughed until our sides hurt. And then their were times when we cried because of our realization of God s love for us and our love for each other !! We cried because of the testimonies we heard and the worship music that sounded as it if came right from the angels in Heaven. That experience is something that I will never forget, BUT, it is all nothing and worthless if I do not share what I have been blessed with that day. What I mean is outside my church, at my workplace or on the job. Why are we ashamed of Jesus Christ oCHNKWKS @јџџџџTEXTTEXTŽ*FDPPFDPP.FDPCFDPC0STSHSTSH2hSTSHSTSHh3ЂSYIDSYID 6SGP SGP 6INK INK "6BTEPPLC &6BTECPLC >6FONTFONTV6pSTRSPLC Ц6:PRNTWNPR7ЌFRAMFRAMЌ>ˆTITLTITL4?DOP DOP F?Creation 2003 I want to share my experience and some thoughts on a recent trip I was on. The term experience would much better describe it than just saying trip. I attended Creation Festival 2003 and I experienced the presence of God like never before !! The atmosphere, the people around me, I felt like I was at home. And as much as I felt at home with a bunch of strangers here on this earth, I cannot wait until the day when I  am at home with my Heavenly Father. God is so amazing and is moving in greater ways than ever before. For example, I met a youth leader from Indiana who, at one time, did not know the Lord, but through the persistence of his  kids , he came to know the Lord and was baptized into the holy family of God !! There is such a big movement in the kids of our generation and they are leading there parents and elders to Christ. Young kids today need to be given a chance, God is working in their lives like never before and they support each other. Some of the kids that attended came from broken homes, no father or no mother in the home. But they find comfort in Jesus Christ and being with Christian friends who support them. One moment that made time stand still is when 75,000 people sang  He thought of me, Above All in one big choir! I thought to myself that Jesus was probably looking down on them and weeping because it sounded so beautiful. People just let go of every care and every burden, lifter their hands to the sky and became one body of Christ. The speakers that spoke to crowds were awesome communicators to young people. They spoke openly about dating, premarital sex, and abortion. Which are topics that in a lot churches are swept under the rug. But just because we are Christians does not mean that we immune to it. Christians stack the sn the Job. We pray for him to give us His  Divine protective shield but then hope he remembers instead of constantly talking with him all day. God is no respecter of times, persons or places, BUT the bible says that if we deny Christ then He will deny us to the Heavenly Father. And every time we sin we deny Christ. Think about that, we don t only deny Christ when we say  I do not know the man three times as Peter did. But every time we sin or even do not share the Gospel message of salvation with someone when we should, that is like saying,  I do not know him !! God depends on us to spread His word and not just pastors and ministers to do that job. Because what if a person never steps foot in a church they will not be saved ?? That is why WE are called to be  fishers of men and spread the Gospel message. The movement among the youth of our country is truly amazing. Because just like you are always accepted by Jesus Christ, you are always excepted by Christians, , , or are you? We as Christians have to be ready to accept anyone one anytime, no matter what is in their past, because that is exactly what it is& . A past !!! If we do not take the impact that God has made on us and share it with our friends and our co-workers, , what good is it ? We need to share this awesome discovery that we have made. And just like we heard the other night,  Are we dating the church or married to the church ? Dating isn t cool with God ! He doesn t want you just once in awhile. He wants you every day and wants you to be committed to only Him. He is jealous if you spread yourself around in the dating scene. If you love God be married to the church, not dating it. God is love and nothing will change that. And for that reason we are called to trust God for what we need and everything else that we encounter. Thanks for hearing my thoughts !! worthless if I do not share what I have been blessed with that day. What I mean is outside my church, at my workplace or on the job.
