Today is not a goodbye or celebration to the end of a great year. But a Hello to the beginning of an even greater future. The past 3 years have been an adventure filled with ups and downs both of which has helped me learn and grow in every aspect of life. Will I miss them? No. Will I treasure them? Always.
Every year KNA changes with new people coming in and older people moving on. This year I was a little unsure of what was going to happen. I remember praying for God to work in KNA to raise a generation of youth passionate about Him and willing to do His work….. and God blessed us. It is awesome to see how much each of you has matured in your relationship with God. I’m excited for this coming year.I’m excited because I know God is going to use KNA to do amazing things.
I can see a generation of youth passionately on fire for God
Shaking the foundations of their school.
Youth that get together before school everyday to pray for their peers
that meets regularly to share, build up and support one another
that are BOLD and not afraid to stand for what is right in a world that has no
moral foundation
Youth that LOVE so much they don’t care about the latest trends or how their peers perceive them
that see past the masks people put on and are able to treat them as a child of God no matter who they are.
Youth who make demons shake in fear when they are around
Who’s light shines so brightly people are drawn in from the darkness
Youth that change the world around them.
That generation is KNA right here right now.
God has been shaping KNA like clay to preparing you guys for this moment. Each year it has been getting more in tune with God. Look around at how perfectly God has placed everyone to be in this fellowship. Its perfect
So many people from one church at each school. Use it to reach out to people who need to know. Put God first in your life and school second and He will definitely bless you.
God has given each of you unique gifts a special part to play in this fellowship.
Some already know what it is. Some are still figuring it out, its ok its going to happen. Don’t be scared “Trust In the Lord with all Your heart and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your path straight. Don’t worry about anything be willing and faithful in doing what God has called you to do and leave the rest to Him. He’s gonna take care of it.
I challenge each one of you to invest your time in one person to pour the love of God into and to show them what it means to be a follower or Christ. The missionfield God has given to you guys is huge but do not be afraid or dismayed because God is with us take it one step at a time. The way Jesus did it. He discipled 12 and those 12 went on to disciple more and on and on and on. The field is ripe for harvest but the workers are few. Pray about it ask God to reveal the person that he wants you to show his love too. He’s chosen you no matter how unqualified you think you are your perfect for who he sends you too because he is God. It might not be a person you want but it’s the person God wants.
It’s going to get hard, a lot of AWESOME things are going to happen this year crazier than ever before. God is going to blow you away, but when we actually start to make a difference and have something good going. Satan is always right there ready to make it all fall apart but stand strong and pray for each other look out for each other’s backs that’s the point of KNA. We are all the body of Christ if one part suffers we all suffer. So be careful stay connected to God so that you won’t be divided by.... Arguments, drama yeah sounds dumb but I can guarantee you that its going to happen. Remember to forgive and to love.
Keep experiencing and learning about God in different ways.
With that said. I’ll definitely be praying for you guys and when I come back for a visit I expect to hear some great stories of God’s work in KNA and I also want to see a lot of new faces.
The question now is: Are you willing to be used? Not ready because we never are but willing to care for the peers at the school God has placed you in.
