recently

Lots has happened recently.

We are loving be the youth pastors at our church here in KC. We have some incredible students. I however need to let everyone in on a little secret. Being a youth pastor is not all fun.

No one ever tells you about the hard parts. Like, crying yourself to sleep because you feel like some of your students might not make it to heaven, and it could be your fault, not being able to sleep because of you found out one of your students has been talking about killing them self, or about just feeling like a failure because no matter what you do, you feel like no ones relationship with God has grown since you have been the pastor.

If anyone ever asks me about being a youth pastor, I plan to tell them to bad and the good.

Not all has been bad, over all this chapter in our life has been amazing. We have had an atheist pray and ask Jesus as their Lord and Savior, and now they are bringing their friends to church. We have seen students prayers answered, and have seen broken families begin to be bandaged back together.

So not all is bad... :)

I just happen to be in a debby downer mood. Just feeling a little defeated tonight. Not sure if its because it 12:20 am and I am not thinking straight or if its the froyo I ate before bed.

Either way,

I reminded myself to night that we have Pastors that stand beside us and support us, and a God that goes before us. It took me talking to and crying with an old friend to realize that.

Overall, God is a good God and He is always there!

Night everyone, ttysoon
