These past couple of weeks has just been an amazing joy that I feel like I have to express. I coach a volleyball team of young teenagers for our Church outreach and just this past Friday I found myself pleading with the Lord in my mind that God would touch the hearts of every single one.
After losing a tough match, my team looked super discouraged. As a coach I felt that I had to help them look at the brighter side, but I believe that the Holy Spirit moved within me to poor out my heart. And frankly I don't quite remember what I said. All I remember is, as the tears were coming down my face, and looking at each person saying, "It's all about Jesus! There is nothing better!" I am a pretty emotional and (what I believe to be a passionate person) was sharing a part of my testimony and recalling my Savior, Lord, King, and Friend revealing Himself to me to this ungrateful sinner and couldn't help but to plea with them to turn to Jesus Christ, and that He is everything and more that they would need.
My heart and prayers go to them. I know that I can't change anyone's heart, but I pray to the one who I know can. Let's not forget the people we love and remember to pray for their souls and as you pray ask God for the courage to speak in truth and grace.
Mark 10:27 "With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God."
