Last night was the first time Light Force met, officially, since mid-December. It’s was weird to have that much of a lay-off. In all honesty I felt a little out of practice "doing what I do." All of my parts of the night felt weird. Not bad, just… somehow foreign.
Fortunately for me, since I’ve done this for most of my adult like it didn’t take long to fall into those roles. At the end of the night, when the room was dark and the front table was covered in candles, (each symbolizing a friend that a student is willing to invest/invite to Light Force) it was just Jason and I and we said, "Felt weird, but it’s good to be back."
I love working with adolescents. I love what I do. I love being around my adult team and feeling their passion for kids pouring out each Wednesday night. I am thankful that God made me in a way that runs towards adolescents instead of running away from them.
