Youth Ministry - Tough Calling?

This is wonderful, a Youth Israel Trip:

I wish our youths will experience this one day. I am torn in my grief for them.

I hope this grief is worth every bit of it.

And I recognise the call, the challenge. God at work. That gives me hope.

I immerse myself in Thomas Fischer's articles. Something that teaches me, once again, how to behave, how to see things God's way.

He writes, "The two-fold calling of God--being called to something greater than ourselves and having the promise of God's powerful, awesome presence in fulfilling His calling--gives us courage. It's the only courage available which ultimately will be able to pay the price to grant peace in our ministries."

I'm thinking, if it is what will bring peace to youths, then I shall do it. I shall be daring.
