"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

193 -- How can we take a stand for what is right?

First things First....remember that it always starts with Jesus. We need to have a relationship with Him and then everything else starts to make more sense and starts to become important to us.

So remember all the parts of putting together the simple circuit...

1. God EMPOWERS us through His Holy Spirit (the battery)

2. God GUIDES us through prayer (the wires)

3. God SPEAKS through His Word (the instruction page)

4. God DESIRES that we hang out with Christian friends (the electrical tape)

5. LIMIT our intake of secular entertainment (if I had given you useless random items)

God doesn't ask us to take up His life and then leave us in the lurch....He empowers us, guides us, and speaks to us. Pretty amazing stuff.

Here is the "That's My King" video:

MYF on 9.19.10

This was voted the worst flavor of jelly bean....



Main Points from the lesson:

1. It ALL starts with having a relationship with God through Jesus!!

2. Jesus said that He came to give us life, and life to the fullest. He also said that we are to seek God's Kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to us.

3. So making right / Godly decisions is part of that life. Right decisions build our character (remember the story of Joseph); right decisions protect us (remember the story of the empty swimming pool); right decisions provide for us (remember the higher perspective in a corn maze); right decisions help you set an example to your peers (remember that people are watching you....be a leader).



Finally, here is one of the songs we sang during high school time:
