God bless you, YF Team!

Your efforts are truly a blessing to even us parents. I wanted to take time to commend you on your dedication of sharing your experiences and those of other believers, the testimonies and trials on the YF website.

We have two teenagers, one in HS and the other in JHS. The influence in the home is not enough when compared with the elements outside and especially the schools. I thought taking them to church, reading and praying with them and even having the tapes play all day in the house was OK. But what I found out is that they need an experience themselves. They need to be filled with the Holy Ghost and the Power of God working in their (youths) lives also.

As a parent, I'd like to say to other parents (as I am learning) that if the children of this day have it ten times harder than we did, then we, as parents, have to be praying at least ten times more, earnestly living a life at least ten times closer to God so our lives could express a Living God, influencing their lives in a positive way at least ten times more.

Learning to handle the challenges is a challenge by itself. But to fight the enemy is not an option. God sent the Perfect weapon, the Message of the Hour. We have to become It, live It and speak It.

The work you are doing there is such a blessing to me, especially now. It helps me understand by the testimonies what some of these young people go through, how their lives have been impacted and most of all, how God came on the scene and showed Himself to be Lord and Master of all circumstances. By this I am learning to be a better parent to my children.

Thank you and may God richly bless and reward you all.

Your Brother in Christ.
