It's labor day today and that means that tomorrow school in Minnesota will once again be in session. Before you begin to moan and groan at the though of homework, tests, and quizzes take a moment to think about what we have learned at Youth Group this summer...
We learned about Jesus and how He lived. We learned that he cared for people and met their needs. We learned that he stood up for what was right even when it wasn't popular. We learned that Jesus ultimately conquered sin, death, and the grave for us so that we could have a second chance to live for Him.
Knowing these things and knowing that we who claim to be in Him need to walk like Jesus, I challenge you this fall to make an impact for Christ in your school. You have a tremendous opportunity before you to reach your friends for Christ and to share his love and kindness with them. Don't be afraid to stand up for your faith and to do what is right! Live like Jesus: care for people, reach out to those in need. Jesus has conquered sin and death and has given us the strength and ability through the Holy Spirit to live for Him and represent Him to our teachers, bus drivers, friends, coaches and others. This fall instead of just taking tests and doing homework...let's make an impact for the Gospel of Jesus Christ! What is it that you can do this fall to show Jesus to others?
