Arg Notes #11: What to thank God for.

Junior Youth Fellowship

 My heart melts every time I see the faces of these young people. As a young leader striving to serve the kingdom of his beloved master, hardships and trials is inevitable - and yet God has been so faithful to bless me strength and divine encouragements.

I am the youth leader of these kids and young teens and to be honest - it's an honor to serve my Master with this ministry.

In the absence of partnerships and needed encouragements, I am still standing and surviving in order to lead this heavenly troops.

If you're a youth worker, a bible study group leader, or in any kind of ministry inside the church - and you feel like giving up,  think why the devil is giving that much effort to pressure and discourage you. You have the heart of a leader. God has chosen you and the growth of His kingdom depends on your ability to entrust your life on his faithfulness and grace.
