Being a youth leader is fun at times, but lately, it’s been very trying.  We have some things going on at the moment and it’s really trying to my spirit.  Of course, as you all know, I’m not going to reveal anything of what’s going on.  That’s part of the “Being in Leadership” role.  I have to keep secrets.  Just pray for the whole youth group.  I feel like we are going through a fire at the moment.

I can tell you what we are trying to do with the youth.  We are trying to teach them how important memorization and meditation of scripture is to being a Christian.  This last month we’ve been working on memorizing Psalm 1 and what it means.  This next Wednesday, we’ll be asking questions pertaining to that piece of scripture and they have to answer word for word.  This next week, we’ll be picking another chapter to do.  Once the kids have gotten used to this, we want to challenge another church.  We have four kids who are very eager to do this and that is encouraging, but what is going on under the surface has really been tiring me out.
