Come Together... Right Now... Because of Him!

So I was at youth tonight, which btw, was awesome and I thought Casey handled the "controversy"(not really controversy but like walking on eggshells) of 1 Timothy 2:8-15 very well. And afterwards I went over to the gym and David M. needed someone to ride with him to Rockwood Village so he could drop off the kids, I usually go with him anyway so I went again. (Nancy, I am responsible for the running and again, I apologize) And on the way there they started singing a song that I'd never heard before, it went "God is good, God is good, God is good... (i kinda forgot the rest but it went over what Jesus did for us)" and that amazed me that these young kids wanted to sing these songs! Usually they want to talk about the wrestling match or what new toys they got etc... but they wanted to sing songs about God! Jesus is moving in the young ones of the church.

So I got back and it was like 20 minutes till gym was over, I didn't do alot but then a youth said he was going to walk home when it was time. I told him I'd give him a ride but he said no, its not far he'd just walk, Casey and I both said that it was too cold to walk and he agreed to the ride. Well we got in my truck and I told him I had to put on my music before I left.... Little side note about my music if you haven't read my previous blog, I deleted ALL the non-Christian songs off of there and I went from over 1000 songs, to about 145.... I had it playing some TFK (a Christian Rock Band) and he turned to me and said, "Dude, you like rock?!?!" and I replied with the most honest answer I have ever given, "No doubt!". So we started talking about music and he had never heard of Decyfer Down or Skillet or Superchic[k] so I played some of each and he really liked them. We got to talking about lots of other stuff and I encouraged him to get into his Bible and pray every day, I told him that it would be hard but if I can, he can. So I would ask that you all lift him up to Jesus, he is saved but is still a "new Christian" and has already been "lost" like I had been after Romania once and I don't want that to happen to him. I told him about D-Now and I'm pretty sure he's going, I hope he's in my group (maybe Casey will make an exception). well... its Alone Time with God so I'll post later

This is awesome Travis. Like Landon said, in our lives there are three types of people: the Paul (those who we look up to), the Barnabas (those we walk along side), and the Timothy (those who look up to us). I think this young youth you took home could be your Timothy. That is so aweosome, and I will be praying for you!
