Day 3ish

Day 3 Lesson:

What to gain from today? Time is invaluable! I was in a big rush today as my youth group and I set out for Colorado. I know I’m writing this a day late, but I promise that I read my daily readings. So, in spite of the things that come up, we MUST make take for what’s important to us. God is number one for me! So I’m doing my very best to maintain this daily discipline, despite what the clock tells me!

Day 3 Spiritual Development: Scriptures read: John 1 29-34, 1 John 4:7-16

I want to quote one of the daily readings. “Christianity began as a way of life rather than as a system of beliefs, the way taught and modeled by Jesus Christ” (Schnase, 14). I don’t have time today, as I said, so I’ll leave it at this… Get out there and be Christ! Don’t focus solely on the religion and rules. Christ certainly knew them and modeled his life around the truths of God as he is the Truth! The thing is that knowledge doesn’t change the world. Knowledge doesn’t make you healthy either. Knowing what not to eat doesn’t mean that you won’t eat that twinkie, but you’ll know why you’re physically unhealthy. So take whatever vast or minimal amount you know and apply yourself!

Day 3 Physical Development: Let’s just say that some days, you are doing all you can to physically get through the day! Some of you know what that feels like! Today was one of those. I need sleep. Sleep is crucial to repairing and rebuilding your body. So, I’m going to try to sleep now.

Alongside you and 200 youth on a ski trip pursuing the Lord,
