I just read a post from a former youth ministry student of mine and had to write about her. Her name is Shannon and unlike the Rich Young Ruler, she has not let her “one thing” stand in her way of her relationship with Jesus. God has transformed this girl who had every opportunity to grow up bitter and making excuses for her life and instead chose to sell out to Jesus. And God has blessed her. And God will do incredible things in her life. You can read about her journey to eventually live and minister in Africa here. She’s an inspiration.
