Shine On

Dear Church Family and especially the Awesome Mt. Juliet Youth Group:

Last week I tried to thank you all for all your love, support, encouragement, generosity, time, and affection.
This week I would like to leave you with a challenge.
Or some challenges. I hope you challenge yourself this school year to grow closer to God and closer to His church than ever before!

1. Love God with All your being. "...Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with
all your soul, and with all your mind." Matthew 22:37

2. Love others.
"...Love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 22:39

3. Diligently Seek God.
"But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek
Him." Hebrews 11:6

4. Seek First the kingdom of God
"...Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Matthew 6:33

5. Study God's word Diligently!
"Study to show yourselves approved unto God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2 Timothy 2:15

6. Pray Often. Pray Hard.
"Pray without ceasing." 1 Thessalonians 5:17

7. Be an example of Jesus Christ
"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12

8. Shine Hard for Your Lord every day!
"Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16

Much Love Always,
Phil Waggoner

P.S. Only the Strong Survive! Pure Life!
