The scripture for this week is taken from:

Galatians 5:22-24 (NIV).
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passion and desire.

Psalm 139:23-24 (NKJ)
Search me, O God and know my heart; Try me and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked (sinful) way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.

I hope this weeks lesson is an encouragement to you. Come back next week. We still have one more lesson from Minister Mario Jenkins regarding the heart of man and the love of God. In the upcoming weeks look for Minister Tracy Burkins and Minister Jewel D. Williams.

Let us heart from you about this lesson. Let's talk....

Truth for Youth

This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. - Romans 3:22-24

This has been a hectic week, but I made a commitment to present a word each week to encourage each of you on your walk. I found this short clip but thought it had much to say. The speakers name is Pastor Shawn McBride. While he does not mention a particular scripture in this piece, I thought of the scripture above as I listened to his clip.

The truth is no matter how much we try to do things on our own, we are going to get it wrong. We fall short often in our lives and are unable to get it right. You do your best in school, try to make friends, do well in classes and sometimes even with all your efforts, it just does not go right.

But there is a way for something to go right in your life, and that is your walk with God. If you will put your trust in Jesus, you can (and he will help you do it) live for him sucessfully. You don't have to be a knockoff or a generic, but you can be a unique brand, who he made you to be.

I pray that this week each of you grasp this truth, God made you to be a unique addition to this world. God placed in you something he did not place in anyone else. Use those gifts, talents and abilities to give him honor.

If you have a prayer request please leave it in the comment section and we will pray for your needs. We also ask that you would begin to share this weekly blogs with your roommates and friends. Are there some topics or scripture you would like explained, then please let us know. This is for you and about you and your needs. God bless you and next week we will again be presenting another message of encouragement from one of the many ministers that committed to helping you in your walk.

C.O.M.E...let us reason together.
