The senior high ROCK (Relient On Christ the King) had their every-other-weekly meeting on March 9th! For this get-together, the coordinators planned a "Destination: Unknown" event. So after some chit chat in the youth room, we all piled into cars and soon found ourselves in the Covington parking lot.
Everyone lined up on the track pretending to stage a marathon and in fact, we did end up racing. The winners had an illegal handicap. Those of us that did wait for "go" and not "ready, set" soon joined the others though, and we all participated in a discussion that compared and contrasted racing to our life with Christ.
You see, in a race, some people are faster and some are slower, but in the end everyone crosses the finish line. Alternatively, God doesn't care who finishes first, or who strays off occasionally, as long as they get to heaven. Luke 15:7 "In the same way, there is more joy in heaven over one lost sinner who repents and returns to God than over ninety-nine others who are righteous and haven’t strayed away!"
God seemed to think that we weren't in the best place for a discussion like this, though, and sent us off to Culver's to continue with the rain in our wake. Also, thanks to Nader for the ice cream! See y'all!
