Over the last several weeks we have seen significant growth in our North Heights Youth Group. NHYG has been serious about inviting our friends to join us for Bible classes, worship, devotionals and other activities we enjoy. It has been amazing to watch our teens talk to their friends and invite them to participate in all the things the NHYG does. Keep it up.
But get ready not only are we seeing numerical growth we are witnesses to spiritual growth. I have noticed kids talking and reaching out to their fellow group members. I have seen kids think and reason through the scriptures. Additionally, I have seen our group worship with their open hearts towards God like never before. What an amazing sight!
What about the rest of us. Do we watch other people growth and wish it was us? Do we envy their spiritual development? I hope not. However, I do hope that the growth I can testify about within the NHYG spreads and motivates you to grow too.
GROW
Give glory to God the Father.
Renew your life to Jesus.
Obey the Holy Spirit inspired Scriptures.
Work hard in the Kingdom.
It’s true. Growth can happen in your life too. Follow the formula and watch it happen.
2 Peter 3:17-18 – You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of unprincipled men and fall from your own steadfastness, but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
For the Lord,
Alex
