We live in a world that is afraid of change.  Things stay the same because people have become content with the way things are.  Are we okay with hunger and violence in this world?  Because I am NOT.  Are we okay with the state of the church?  I'm not. 

My plea is for those who desire change in this world and in the church.  This world will try to make you feel small and turn their ear, but don't let that stop you from being bold and being the light of the world as we are called to be.  Don't let being young stop you either, you have a right to stand up and speak out. 

For change in the church, you will have older generations who won't budge.  Sometimes you can't get past them, so you move onto the next group.  If there is a Godly fire in your heart to be the one who brings change He will open the doors for you to walk through.  Sometimes there will be barriers, during these times there must be prayer for you to sense if it's worth pushing through or if it's a barrier to say "stop, don't go down this path".

For change in the world you will have people who will be people.  The ways you bring change to the world parallel the ways you bring change in the church only you have a broader sense of people from all backgrounds. 

No matter the age and stage you may be, God will find a way to use you should you accept the challenge. 

Grace and peace be with you all.
