What this world needs

There is a time in life where everyone asks themselves "whats my purpose? What am I worth? And am I even worth anything?" I cant tell you how many times I've looked in the mirror and asked myself these very same questions. The world tends to make us feel useless, worthless, unwanted, and ugly. It tells us that we aren't worth anything and will never be. Well, i disagree. We are all here for a purpose, for God's purpose. We just have to find it. The world gives us so many options, so many things to do instead. And then it tries to bring us down. Either way, it has to have its way. It fills our minds with so many lies. It tells us that we aren't pretty enough or aren't thin enough and then gives us the idea to either become someone we're not or starve ourselves  to try to get the perfect body. It tries to consume us, to become our every move, our every thought. And then when we decide to go with the worlds ideas and plans it had for us instead of what God wants, we crash. We loose control and become consumed in the darkness that has taken a hold of us. And we lose sight of the light that was once in our life. Christ. That's the problems with most teens. They've lost sight of Christ, our light. The world has become so darkened and full of sin, that the light of Christ that once use to consume our world has now been replaced by sin. And the sad thing about is, we as a people don't care. We would rather live in our way of sin and death, than life in Christ. And whats worse is that the upcoming generation isn't going to know who Christ is or what He did, or even the way of life over death. We need to talk about Christ more! We don't have to preach or get in peoples faces. Just get Christ's name out there! Just saying his name or talking about him a couple of times in a conversation can and will make a difference! People are so desperate for a change and for something more, so lets give it to them! Lets give them something that will cause the biggest change in their life they have ever had! All people want is someone to love them, someone to love, and to feel loved. Lets give them Jesus!
