When I was driving to the San Diego Airport, my expectations
for this trip were very low. I thought the trip would be like any other trip
with no meaning - just something to do to.
I thought it was just this one word, “Serve.” This one word just had one meaning to me which
was working for nothing. During the week I was trying to figure out what was
the purpose of the trip. When we were on the top of Inspiration Point I was
talking to James and one of the youth works leaders, Austin, about faith and
when were you really truly saved. Not
when you get baptized, not when you get confirmed, but when you truly know you
are saved. The cool part about this is that everyone has their own story of
when they were saved. Another time I was talking to another youth works leader,
Sydney, and we were talking about the same topic and I figured out all about
what special meaning this trip had for me and it was building on God’s purpose
for me. You really find your purpose
when you can be comfortable doing that through Christ, and with serving that’s
a building block to build your purpose up.
That one word, serve, is what can help you get past that mountain; that
can build you for a better future to show you how much you are blessed. But the
only way to realize the meaning of that word is to use your God given purpose
to find it.
