In one minute everything can change. A nervous kiss changes a relationship, a second glance can save a life, and a text message can break a heart. Never in my life have I been from one extreme emotion to another so quickly.
Tonight I got some great news, one of my high school girls decided to go to camp with us this summer. After getting home and celebrating...I received a text from yet another one of my girls. Though the same idea...a text from one of my high school girls about camp this summer, they were very different. The latter is backing out.
Our friends have no idea how much we love them.
Our high school kids have no idea the space they hold in our hearts.
But I guess if they had any idea how much we loved them, then there really wouldn't be a point in our ministry. Honestly, if high school students didn't break our heart, if they didn't misunderstand our love for them and the news about Jesus that we have for them then we wouldn't do what we do.
If they understood it, they wouldn't need us.
I am heart broken for my high school girls who won't tell me anything real about their life.
But I think that maybe that's the point.
