First accepted Jesus at a young age after reading 'Keys for Kids' one evening. Infront of the fridge, waiting for the bathroom I asked Jesus into my heart.
Youth retreat a few years back: Topic was 'surrender'. Started giving everything to God. Been working on that ever since and am not yet fully surrendered.
Youth retreat this year: When we drove out there I had a feeling this wasn't for me but I wanted one last glimps. Got so little sleep the first night, I prayed that God would use that weekend to help me even if it wasn't His will that I was there. I learnt what it meant to 'Pray without ceasing' and it felt good to be in constant contact with God. I realized that I had to let fo of that Church as I had let go of our old house. I was in the same rut. I have a hard time surrendering things to God. But seeing this I could give it to God. I also found an answer I had been searching for for a long time. I want to go to the mission feild. I was not sure and still am not fully sure that it isn't just my restless spirit but the more I give to God the more I want to do this. Next year I plan to take something at Canadian Mennonite University called 'School of Discipleship'. This includes four months of mission in Guatemala or South Africa as well as helping at camps in Manitoba, Bible classes and much more. I feel this way I can learn and also see if this is Gods leading for my life.
