I just wanted to testify about the awesome things that God has been doing in Youth Group!!!
We started our saturday night services last month on the 4th, and so far have had 5 meetings and it has been such a rollercoaster for me!
God has definitly been working on many of my own insecurities and issues, but at the same time, i really see the hand of God moving in this group!
First of all... i want to state, all this is possible because of God. I am not talented enough nor gifted nor anything that would allow me to do this in my own strength. God has used a weak vessel like me, to have influence on a community. God has honoured our prayers!
In the last two weeks, God has done a miricle! HE has doubled the youth group, TWICE in just two weeks!!!!!
This definitly is not because of me, because if you ask my friend who helps me, i was sooo discouraged before group tonight, everything seemed to be 'falling' apart. Yet God is growing me and teaching me to trust in Him by displaying his awesome grace to me!
Only 2 weeks ago we had 6 youth, then last week we had 12... now this week we had a huge
24!!!!!!!!!! PPPPPRRAAIIISEEEE THE LORD!!!!!
It was so awesome and so scary... when i picked up '15' kids in a bus not suited for that many (i had kids sitting in the boot -_- )
i saw Damien (guy helping me) and i had a look on my face of 'ahhh help!!!
Neither of us have ever led a group that size, but God was sooo faithful, graceful and loving, and we ended up having an absolutely fantastic time!
I am so overwhelmed by God's faithfulness. I believe God is going to do bigger and better things with this group! Now i just need to pray more!!!!!! Please if your reading this, pray for us. We need all the prayers we can Get!
'With man, this is impossible, BUT with GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!!!!'
amen
