verse worth raving about...

Philippians 2:14-16 NIV

¹⁴ Do everything without grumbling or arguing, ¹⁵ so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky ¹⁶ as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.

Empowering Teen Girls to live a life worth RAVING about!

Dee Mays--We have a group of 12 girls. We call ourselves the G.I.F.T.S(Girls in Fellowship to Serve). We watched "The Line" last night with the girls. It was a very thought provoking message. The worksheets that I printed online to go with the video were great. The girls can't wait till we meet in two weeks to continue with ily bff. Hope you keep up the great material. It has been a wonderful study for out group. I really like the way you use scriptial application. Thanks so much for the wonderful work your organization does!

Laura says...You kinda ROCK...keep blessing all those around you!

• Two roads-where to go?
  

  We are all faced with multiple choices in our day to day lives. We have decisions in our lives that we feel as though there is a right and a wrong but we can't see what the clear way is or what God is calling us to do. Sometimes, there is not always a right or a wrong decision. There are some opportunities in our lives that can be right either way you go.

  "Show me the path where I should walk O Lord; point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by Your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you!" Psalms 25:4-5

During times like these it is so hard to see the ways God is working in our lives, but that is when I remember God's words of comfort to us.

  • to have a craving, appetite, or great desire for something
  • an intense desire for some particular thing
  • to have a since of urgency

  What is it that we truly CRAVE in life? What are the things that we need and cannot live without? Some would say their cell phone, ipod or boyfriends, but God calls us to crave HIM.

  One of my favorite versus is Psalm 63:1-3:

• Don't wanna Grow up?!
  

  Matthew 5:48

  "In a word, what I'm saying is, Grow up. You're kingdom subjects. Now live like it! Live out your God-created identity. Live generously and graciously toward others, the way God lives toward you."

  Isn't being a little kid the greatest? Having no homework, no girl drama, and no boy problems! Childhood is such a fun time in life! It's funny that God calls us to be like the little children and come to Jesus' feet and then calls us to grow up...How do we balence that?!

  The reality is that we are supposed to be
