Youth News: Nov. 29, 2018

Thursday November 29th, 2018
29 Nov 2018

Hi Youth Family,

Hi Youth, 
Can you believe that it is almost Christmas day?! Christmas will be in 4 weeks, which gives us 26 days left! Furthermore that would be in 624 hrs! The point is, Christmas day is almost here!! But, before we get careless and excited for the holiday, let us take time to understand the importance of The Day of the Lord. 
In today’s reading in 2 Peter 3:8-9, we are reminded of this day… Peter has this to say,

8 Dear friends, here is one thing you must not forget. With the Lord a day is like a thousand years. And a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow to keep his promise. He is not slow in the way some people understand it. Instead, he is patient with you. He doesn’t want anyone to be destroyed. Instead, he wants all people to turn away from their sins.” (NIRV) 

Peter, a disciple of Jesus Christ, wrote this letter as an encouragement to help stimulate Christian growth. He reminds us to be followers who combat false teachings and to encourage watchfulness for the Lord’s certain return. As you go through a period of waiting for winter break, let us take time to remember the importance of waiting on the Lord. Because where the Lord is, there is freedom.

Blessings,
Sam
