Youth convention rocks!!! It was in GreenBay this year. It was so fun! There was a band from Fort Myer's Master's Commision in Florida, called Interface. The speaker was Ron Rhoads.

One of the things we did during our free time was bowling. I was a lil skeptical at first, but it ended up being a ton of fun. We even got bumpers! I can't bowl without them. :) It was amzingly fun, and I even won a game!

One of my friends and I went and bought some Monster energy drinks, and drank them right before service. We were so hyper! She even started twitching, she was so hyper. :) Everyone who went got along and had a ton of fun together.

During the worship services I went to the front, and I was right up against the stage! It was sweet. I was worshiping God while rocking out. How fun is that! As I mentioned in a previous post singing worship song is one of the easiest ways that I connect with God. So that helped me grow spiritually.

Ron Rhoads was a great speaker. One night he talked about when Jesus fed the 5,000 men. He talked about how the boy, who's sack lunch was multiplied, and how he had to give up all he had. Not just some of it, ALL of it. Then during his alter call he had people give God their "sack lunch." It made me realize that living for Christ isn't a half hearted ambition. You have to give your all. Give up all your ambitions and dreams, and give him everything!
