Young people are in such need of God! I pray the church stops playing games soon. It's time that christians stop looking out for their own interests and serve God by serving others instead of themselves. This young generation is in so much need of God!
My daughter lost a friend from High school Monday. She was depressed and hung herself from the tree in her backyard after overdosing on anti-depressants. She left a good-bye message on her Myspace.
Please pray for this family.

Hannah and I went to Amanda's funeral tonight. There were about 200 people in attendance, mostly teenagers. The message was very good. The pastor said basically that it is important that you have a relationship with God and if you died today what would your life say about you? He ended it by inviting anyone who was interested in having a relationship with God to come to him after the service or they could call him at the church. They played "I Can Only Imagine" at the end of the service at the request of her mother.

Hi Rebecca,
I will pray for your daughter. Praise God that these young people were challenged to consider the shortness of this life. With all the H1N1 concerns and so many other things, we're reminded that this life is brief and eternity lies before us.
In Jesus, John
