Youth
I've been spreading this game to youth for years and it works. Kids don't really care what they're playing as long as someone is playing it with them and spending time with them. They have a good time, they learn to respect others and learn how to win and lose.
As for the people who can change the kids? I say that only God can change anyone. I can't change someone and neither can you. You might think you're changing them but deep down they're still the same person and eventually will go back to their old ways. Parents can't change their kids. They can raise them but as time goes on the kid makes his own choices and decisions.
Take time out of your busy lives and look at this (because I did and it rocked my world). Think about how much time you spend on work, hobbies, consuming things you don't even need. Now think about how much time you spend sitting in a quiet area with no noise. How about how much time you spend with your kids and family? Which areas are winning the time battle? How about how much time you spend with God?
Just like any game there are two opponents. Each opponent is battling for your time. One opponent wants you so busy that you don't have time for the other one. If you don't have time for the other one you'll never find peace, hope, love and eventually everything that you love will be gone. The other opponent just wants you to be close to Him. He wants your time because He has a plan for your life. He created you in the image of Him. The busier you are the less time you have for Him.
Now look at America. Credit card debt, multiple jobs to pay bills, time being consumed by things that don't really matter, time away from your kids, your family and the ones you love. Why? Because we don't even realize it that's why. We're being tricked and we don't even know it. Little by little our world is crashing down. So let me ask you something....................... Which opponent are you routing for? Does everyone around you know that you rout for God as much as you rout for your favorite team?
Only God can save these kids guys. He will use you for His will in doing that but only He can do it.
Ephesians 5:15-20
