Being a Leader
So just recently i became a leader in my church's youth group. Its very different. I grew up most of my life in that church and now i graduated and became a Jr. High leader. At first i didn't think it was going to be much different but it is. I can tell that the services are targeted towards the young age group that is present. I soon realized that i no longer fitted into the student category and now had to step out of my box of good friends and meet new, younger kids. It was scary at first. I love my friends and i like spending time with them but it was time for change. It was interesting seeing how different the Jr. High students and Sr. High student acted. Its kind of hard adjusting myself to handle the younger kids. To tell you the truth......I didn't want to be a leader for the Jr. High because i was scared of them. I thought they would tear me apart, but after being a leader at MYC, God showed me that this is a passion of mine and i shouldn't be scared of anything. With God in my life anything is possible. So now I'm an official leader. There are a few things i have to give up for the time being but this is what i want and what God wants. I'm excited for this very adventurous next year!
