This has been such an exciting summer grow in my walk with God. I find it amazing how God places people in our path when you really need them. The hardest part sometimes is opening our hearts to them. Harvest Cry was a tool that the Lord used to touch so many. Being a part of this event helped me to be able and willing to lead youth to Reach Workcamp in Niagara Falls, NY.
I know that I am called to be a leader, but sometimes I just want to second guess myself and say who me?? Sometimes I think that everything has to be to perfection, but that is not what God is looking for in us. God wants each of us to be a willing vessel and work together as one body. In 1 Corinthians 12:12-26, Paul writes about the body being made up of many parts. I saw this scripture put into action as two teams of young people united together to take of four layers of roof, replace it, and crap and paint the entire outside of a home in 4.5 days. each of these young people was gifted in a different area and worked together for a common cause. isn't that what God is calling us to?
My challenge to all that read this is to search their hearts and see what God is calling you to do. We all have a place in the body, we just need to be a willing vessel for God to use.
