27 hours of teen spirit leads to one awesome weekend!!!!

Acquire the Fire.  Tulsa Oklahoma.  27 hours of loud music. 27 hours of bible teachin', truth preachin', song singin' and no sleepin'. 

I went into this past weekend expecting God to move in the lives of the teenagers in Tulsa.  I had no idea that He would move so greatly in mine.  When I finally opened my heart to what God was doing in my life I was overwhelmed.  It all started before we ever left the parking lot of the church.  We only took a handful of kids, but God used those few to do mighty things in my life this weekend.  They showed me what Gods love looks like, sounds like and feels like.  I came away from this weekend with a new outlook on my calling and on my life in general.  I thought this weekend was for the teenagers.  But then on Saturday night I was down stairs by my self praying for the group.  Then a young boy sat down beside me and wanted to talk.  We went back and forth for awhile and talked about everything you can imagine.  Then when he was getting ready to leave I asked the question... 
Where will you go if you die today. He said "what do you mean"?  I said if you died today would you go to  heaven or hell?  He said "I guess I would go to hell"   So I said would you like to know how to know Jesus?  We spent the next few minutes discussing and praying for Jesus to come into his life.  Know he is my little brother in Christ.  That was just the first thing God let me see.

Then the story gets interesting.  See I was sitting down and praying and a older gentlemen walked up and said a few words that would change my life...

To Be Continued...
