Young Adult Message: NEVER GIVE UP

2010-06-04T23:26:00.000-07:00

Don't give up.....

One day I decided to quit.
I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality. .. I wanted to quit my
life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.

"God", I asked, "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"
His answer surprised me...
"Look around", He said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?"
"Yes", I replied.
"When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of
them.
I gave them light.
I gave them water.
The fern quickly grew from the earth.
Its brilliant green covered the floor.
Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.
And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the
bamboo. He said.
"In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.
But I would not quit.
In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would
not quit." He said.
"Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared
to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant. ..But just 6
months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and
gave it what it needed to survive.
I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."
He asked me. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been
struggling, you have actually been growing roots".
"I would not quit on the bamboo.
I will never quit on you."
"Don't compare yourself to others."
He said.
"The bamboo had a different Purpose than the fern.
Yet they both make the forest beautiful."
"Your time will come", God said to me.
"You will rise high"
"How high should I rise?"
I asked.
"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return.
"As high as it can?" I questioned.
"Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."

I left the forest and brought back this story.
I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.

Never, Never, Never Give up.

HEALING RAIN IS FALLING DOWN

2010-05-07T04:53:00.000-07:00

HEALING RAIN IS FALLING DOWN by Michael W. Smith

Healing rain is falling down
I am not afraid, I am not afraid

Healing rain is falling down
I am not afraid, I am not afraid

I AM NOT AFRAID ... how many of us fear healing? and why?

Is it because we are exposing wounds that have been covered for years, and that will reveal parts of us that we are afraid to address, confront, and even more so, let go of. Allow the healing rain of God to saturate your wounds, so that you may not only be healed, but be made whole ...

LORD RESTORE OUR LIVES THAT YOUR HEALING WILL COME ...

BE HAPPY

2007-02-26T23:57:00.000-08:00

Author: Karen Lynch

Happiness does not come from outside of ourselves. Happiness is an inside job. Just as Abe Lincoln said back those many years ago, most people really are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. But there are some tools that we can use to increase our happiness and help us to find it inside of ourselves where it has been all along.

The first tool is the emotion of Gratitude. Begin to realize and reflect upon the things that you have in your life to be grateful for.

Journey to the Cross

2006-12-01T01:55:00.000-08:00

By Faith Bosland

Meditating on the events of Jesus' final days and his resurrection can be profound. The challenge for most of us is shutting out the noise and distractions of everyday life long enough to quiet our souls and listen to the Spirit of God.

Here's how you can set up an inspiring means to interactively meditate on Jesus' Journey to the Cross: create stations for contemplation around your facility. It's perfect if you have side rooms, stairs, pews, choir loft, and a balcony, but you can be creative and adapt to any situation.

You can offer Journey to the Cross any time of the year. Holy Week can be especially effective. Use it during camp, a lock-in, or a midweek gathering. This design has 13 stations, most of which can accommodate approximately three people at a time. Since everyone begins at the first station, you need a plan for staggering the start. Try one of these ideas:

Gather the group for worship. Participants can leave one or two at a time to begin the Journey and return as they finish. (At some point, everyone may be participating in the Journey.) This option works well if you have a group of 30 or fewer.
Have the Journey available between certain hours, say 6 to 10 p.m., on a particular day. People may arrive whenever they prefer.
Have the stations set up every evening for a week. People may arrive whenever they prefer. This is a good option if you have a very large group.

Expect people to spend an hour to an hour and a half walking through the entire Journey to the Cross.
