Tonights Church

Hey everyone!

Tonight I went to my youth group at church and it was so great. We had a speaker from England.
His name is Matt and he works with an organization that gets Bibles out to people that really need them.
He and his wife are just so amazing and really seem to be on fire for Christ. He spoke about how important it is to NOT care what people think about you, to JUST worry about what your heart looks like to God...which I think is EXTREMELY timely for what I wrote about in my last blog.
- But tonight he was talking about how people in other countries DIE for only sharing the gospel with someone...and yet we are afraid of what we look like standing in line with our younger sibling!
THIS IS NOT THE LIFE THAT GOD HAS CHOSEN FOR US!
" For this is the will of God, your sanctification..." ( 1 Thessalonians 4:3 )
God above all things calls us to be sanctified through Him...I have to think about that before anything else. There are people in other countries who are giving their lives for the will of God, to share their faith with others. What is our purpose as teen girls? Is it to ALWAYS worry about what we look like?
No...it is to DO the will of God and to be sanctified!
