A few problems....

Postby bakura_fan » Mon Sep 06, 2004 11:13 am

Ok....I found out a few weeks ago that our Youth pastor is retiring. Last week was his last session with us. Now most of our youth group doesn't want to go back because they feel it won't be as fun. Also....we don't have a replacement for him. Two of my best friends are saying that they will most likly not come back. One is changing churches and the other is not even going to look. I guess I'm just feeling kind of down because just when I thought things were finally looking up for me....this happens. :sniffle: This would be my last year at the youth group...so hopefully they will find someone. Another thing that's bothering me is the concern as to whether or not the youth activities will take place. If they decide not to have Winter Camp or the Car Ralley during this time...I won't have much of a chance to do so in the future...do to my being too old. I probably sound like I'm just whining about nothing....but Nate *youth pastor* was actually my first friend before the other kids accepted me when we moved up here. So...now that he's gone...I don't know what's going to happen. My parents suggest that we change churches now that he's gone....but I'm scared. It took me 2 years before the kids at youth group fully accepted me. I'm afraid that might happen again....And I would be a senior this year if I wasn't in running start.

Another request...I havn't been getting enough sleep lately. Roughly 5-6 hours each night. x_X And because of this lack of sleep....I've been getting sick. And now that we're getting a puppy...I have to take care of it when it whines at night and such. And also...I'm going back to school the 16...I believe...Anyway part of my schedule goes like this. Monday I have classes from 5-9 pm. *roughly 45 minute trip home afterward* Then Tuesday I have a class that starts at 9 AM!!! :shake: This is going to be a loooooooooooong semester.

I'm really sorry for such a long post... I really am. I've just been going on and on about probably meaningless things :red: :sniffle: ....I shouldn't have made it so long....Please forgive me... :( :sniffle: :waah!:

They're not meaningless things -- it can be very hard to integrate back into a new group, especially when you're already feeling worked up from having to leave the old one. I'll keep you in prayer too.

There is nothing to forgive. Thank you for sharing with us like that so that we can pray about your requests. I will be praying for them. God bless you.

"The advice I like to give young artists, or really anybody who’ll listen to me, is not to wait around for inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you’re sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and something else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that’s almost never the case." - Chuck Close[/color]

I know how you feel bakura_fan. We had this AWESOME youth partor at our church. Everyone could hardly wait to get to youth group. I'd been waiting all my life to be old enough for his wife to be my mentor. She and I were very close. She was there when I was born and we've done a lot of dramas for church together. So I'd been looking forward to this all my life...and they move away, just before my class moves into youth group. I was so upset. I know GOD was calling them to a new mission, but I was crushed. I cried so much. I'm getting to know the new youth pastor, but I'm still not over them leaving. I will definately be praying for you!!!

Well, here's the other situation. They want to find both a male and female leader. I have a feeeling that until they can find both, that not much is going to be going on.....I hate change, but I hate it even more when they're not prepared for it....Thanks for the prayers....I and the rest of the youth will definitly need it.
