MYF Youth Group--Learning to be Disciples of Jesus
"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." ~Hebrews 12:2

Main Point from this week's lesson:
God's PLAN is PERFECT.
Any followup thoughts on our discussion?

Since the moment we were created God has had a special plan for us. He knows how much we can handle and helps us in our time of need. He backs us up but still lets us have free will which is pretty awesome. When we just want to through in the white flag he still tries and protects us to make sure that we do what he wants us to do in life.
God's plan is perfect, I get that. But we have a role to play in all of this too...that role is obedience to that plan...and that is all about love. Jesus said, "Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me." So as we grow in our love for Jesus, we show it through obedience to God's plan, which is perfect. And it is this cool circle thing, because we are able to love because God first loved us (1 John 4:19). It all starts and ends with God.

I know. Satan was the one that messed everything up! It makes me sad that Satan messed everything up!
