What an awesome night! It made me proud to be a part of Uth Force. Not only did the room look awesome, the students did an amazing job with their redneck ghetto decorations. There was a lot of energy and excitement in the air. I believe that we will truly see the impact of tonight in the coming weeks, months, and years. There was a strong challenge laid down and the students were not afraid to pick it up. At the end of the night, everyone had the sense that something special is about to happen.Here are some things we talked about:
We looked at the interaction between Mary and the angel as the call was given for Mary to bring the Son of God to a lost and dying world. Mary was between the ages of 14-16 and her life was pretty much planned out for her. When God stepped on the scene, her life went unscripted.
Here are some things about the unscripted life.
The call was unexpected - not only was her life planned out for her, who would expect such big things out of a teenager. God would! It is time to live our lives above expectation.
The mission was undeniable - how could she say no to the call that was before her? Yet we say no every day of our lives by the way we live and the choices we make.
Her relationships became unstable - the most important decision you will make is who you allow to influence your life.
Her worship was unquenchable - Mary's love for God overrode everything.
