The TN trip has led to some exciting changes in our lives. For one, Antonis has more of an understanding of what it means to serve others. In the week since we've been back God has provided a couple of opportunities for him to be of help to other adults in our lives. I have a new perspective too- older kids need to stay connected with the family as they get older. I know they grow and mature and become independent but God has an important role for them as they grow up. For example when I go to a friend's house for a playdate with the younger kids; he needs to come with! The younger kids love him and the other grownups can minister to him. He can be a blessing to the other family too.
The Lord also confirmed to me that he wants me over with the youth group on Wednesday nights at our church. I know that God used the TN trip to soften my heart towards the youth. He showed me that the youth are hungry for God and need to be discipled. They need Godly influence in their lives. God wants to use me to reach them for Christ...to share my relationship with Jesus.
