Stepping up to the microphone

R-age has been in my mind lately. A dear sister was sharing that she had left your ministry and she is having a wilderness experience as she wanders to find a church that could feed her spiritual needs. She is not irreplaceable in the ministry and there are always another one that God has prepared to takeover the vacant role. There is never a lack of passionate people in R-age, but if that passion for God does not translate to a passion for His Word and His people love. Passion is synonymous to love. One cannot have a passion for something you do not love for without love, they ain't nothin'.

I remember the younger ones in my days. How we spot the young and potential ones and train them up to be leaders and how heartbreaking to see these very leaders not live up to their potential as they grow older and as the world's influence on them becomes stronger than the church's. I sometimes do not fault the young, they are still young! Some of them were never ready to shoulder the responsibility of that kind of leadership. Overtime, they prefer a different kind of life and chose to walk away. I will never say it is the fault of the leaders. The kids spend more time at school or at play more than in church, cell or prayer. Therefore, it is never a surprise. The youth leaders can only do so much to influence them. At the end of the day, it is only a tough way of God finally setting apart the ones that mattered. It was painful to see it happen in my days. I am sure the present leaders feel the same way when they lose one of their own too.

Praying for u guys!! Stay on course!
