What are you doing to prepare your heart for the the 2010 Sr?
Where is your heart? Are you preparing your thoughts, and heart to focus on the messages that Sean will be teaching on? Don't wait till its the night before Sr to try to prepare your heart for great but convicting messages. What I'm doing to prepare my heart for SR is listen to last years messages, also the message J.Sarr has been doing on Wednesday nights at one28. Also I finished reading, The love of God by John MacArthur Jr. Also I'm not listen to secular music, and only Christian, and reading books that will bring him glory. I just started a purpose driven life. So far its been very convicting, We need to focus on what God desires for our life and not what we desire alone. We should desire the same thing as God. I now have a less then a year in half of high school left and I'm starting to pray what God desires for my life as well as talking with my parents.
Don't come into Snow retreat with the only focus of snow and hanging with friends. Yes that's part of it, but if that your only focus you'll miss so much of what Snow retreat is. Time to see where your heart is with God. Its also time for those who haven't accepted Christ as their savior, to repent and accept the gift of salvation.
Last year my focus wasn't entirely focused on God and it was a lot harder to focus on what God was trying to teach me.
As snow retreat draws closer pray for an open heart to what Sean's teaching, and pray that those who don't know Christ will accept him as their savior. Small group leaders that they will be able to see where the teens in their cabin are? They care so much about your soul, and it breaks their hearts when they see you in sin. They may seem mean, they want you to see your sin. Think of how much Gods heart is breaking when he See's you his child in sin. Last keep Sean in your prayers as he prepares the messages that God has laid on his heart to teach us.
