"Churchy People"

As most of know I go to church every Sunday. I love my Church and I would never think of changing to a different one. But, I recently went to a different church with a friend on Tuesday night for youth group. It was an okay survice but I just have one problem with it. The Youth..... It's sad to say that when I got there I was kind of shocked to see who went there. It was all Teens that I thought never went to church. It was the Teens that when you go somewhere and see them you just CANNOT tell that they have God in their life. They were the "Bad" kids.

Now I'm not saying that it isn't a good thing for them to be in church... Because it is great! What I'm Saying is that they need to live for God everyday not just on days they go to Church. God calls us to live for him everyday of our lives and to make him number 1 of our lives. Not to go to Church and act all good at church but as soon as you leave you go back to your old ways. If that happens then I think that person needs to take a look at their walk with God.

I don't know how many people know this about me but I have been called to be a Youth Pastor for about 4 years now. I am called to see that the youth of this time does not end up in the Pits of Hell. So when I see Teens like this it truely worries me. It makes me want to do something but I don't know what.

Jam 1:22 NLT

"22 But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwisee, you are only fooling yourselves. 23 For if youlisten to the word and don't obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. 24 You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. 25 But if you look carefully into the perfect law that set your free, and if you do what it says and don't forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it."

That verse really sticks out to me when I see the youth go to church and say all the right things but when they get home they forget all about church and go about their ways not knowing that they are missing out on so much in life. Because Life is so much more than what so many people are letting it be. People wonder why things just are not going so good but, they don't realize that it just might be because of their walk with God.

My Final Thoughts:

If that is you just think about what you are doing. Do you go to church then as soon as you get home you forget what was taught? Or do you remember what was taught but don't put what was taught into your heart? Just think about that until next time.
