West Texas Girls Conference.

I had the opportunity this last weekend to speak at ACU to over 300 high school-aged women from Texas. It was so much fun. I really enjoy challenging people that age to embrace their uniqueness and not conform to what the world is telling them to value. It was so encouraging for me to talk with them after the session and have the chance to hear them share about their dreams and passions. To see tears in their eyes as they were asking how they can join the fight against injustice and stand in the gap for children less fortunate than them. I have such hope in this next generation that they will rise up and want to change the world to make it a better place.

We have been blessed with so much here in America. Do we truly comprehend that to much who is given, much is required? Every day we have the chance to give of our gifts and talents and serve those in need. Be a servant to someone hurting today. Love your neighbor.
