Praise be to JESUS
I would like to Share a Scripture which I found very Inspiring
Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! Many
are they that rise up against me. Many there be which
say of my soul. There is no help for him in God.
But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and
the lifter up of mine head.
I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me
out of his holy hill.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord
sustained me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of
people, that have set themselves against me round
about.
Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God; for thou hast
smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone; thou hast
broken the teeth of the ungodly. Salvation belongeth
unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people.

> But maybe I am wrong. The 'youth' mentioned in Jesus Youth is actually the

> Had they listened, they would have come forward. Are they too shy to talk
