YML

Friday has quickly become one of my favorite days of the week.  Not because it is the start of the weekend, but due to the time I get to spend with the young men over at Roosevelt High School.  These cats crack me up, inspire me, and motivate me to continue to be more, so that I can in turn encourage them to be more in the midst of their daily challenges and struggles.

we've been working through different chapters in the 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader by John Maxwell.  we've covered a few qualities and each week as I prepare...i'm challenged myself.  reading through John's quick short chapters and reflecting on different things we can do with the young men or the things ways we can relate it to them and their situation...i find myself stopping and thinking.  wow, i could really use some of this advice.  i ask myself how can i apply it; to my parenting, my husbanding, my leading, my dreaming, pastoring and creating.  i love that when i spend time there, its never as an expert, but as one who is on the same journey.  i've just been on it a little longer.

love the Young Men Leaders at RHS.
