h2o live -Wed night recap

It was a good night at h2o and lots of fun.  Our worship band did a great job of leading us to focus on Jesus.  I appreciate them and their dedication and passion to led others to worship Christ.  I preached on Thanksgiving.  I talked about being thankful for what God has blessed you with and being thankful for what Jesus has done for us.  I had students write down five things they were thankful for in their lives, then I had random students share one of the things they wrote down.  It was neat to hear the different things students shared.  Then I challenged them to thank God more often for the blessings of life.  I concluded my message with being thankful for what Jesus has done for us...He Redeemed us.  We had a neat prayer time at then end where students spent time Thanking God for what he has blessed them with in their lives and for Him redeeming them.

After h2o and we were closing down for the night I was talking with two students.  As I was talking with one about following through in baptism the other students said she wanted to be baptized to, I asked her to tell me about when she accepted Christ and she had no answer.  I sat down with the two of them and walked her through what it meant to accept Christ.  She said, "I want to accept Christ tonight," so she prayed to receive Christ right there.  I love leading people to a personal relationship with Christ!

The most important thing we can do as believers is tell other people about Jesus.  It's exciting that God blesses us with the opportunity to see student accept Christ very frequently here.  May we never grow tired of telling people about Jesus!
