Turning Back the Clock…

I understand it’s a little like living in Alaska.  I wake up…and there’s no light.  I close the door to the office for the day…and there’s no light!  Where did the sun go?  This next generation is a lot like the void of the sun…constantly in the dark…or perhaps a feeling that they are void of the light.  The scriptures teach us that we are the light of the world and a city on the hill can not be hidden, nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”  The teens with whom we work have difficulty seeing the light or finding the light normally by choice.  They have lived most of their life in the dark and thus continue to choose to do so becuase they know of no other.  Please join us in giving them the truth and an option far greater than the one Satan bottle feeds them and support our cause with a financial contribution.

Thankful for what???

Yup…it’s November! Where did October go? We’ll wake up tomorrow and it will be Christmas. I have asked a few kids about thanksgiving and for what reason they had to be thankful and their reply was not what I expected. One teenager…let’s call him…oh, I don’t know, Johnny…told me online that his mother didn’t really care about him or life anymore, he doesn’t see his dad a whole lot, and is currently flunking school. Another teen told me that his friend wants him to help him sell some crack on the side, he has been kicked out of school and is on the verge of being expelled at the alternative school, but really has no hope for the future…and still another tells me that his mother is constantly yelling at him for nearly everything from the point he gets up and leaves for school until the point he closes the door and hides under the covers to escape…and they all asked me for what reason they should be thankful. This is a seemingly difficult question to answer to kids who reside in a depressed and angry living environment where God is unfortunately not welcome as a savior, but rather another being on whom their parents or they themselves place the blame for their current demise.
I am in prayer for them often as God constantly brings their faces and stories to my mind and I ask you to join me in prayer for these kids and many more like them whom I counsel online as they are seeking the truth and have the option to allow God to turn their story into a powerful testimony which can indeed change the lives of many.
