Feeling accusation that you're too young to make a difference in the Kingdom of God? Feeling like you were born into the wrong generation? I remember being in my early and mid 20s feeling like I couldn't do anything of meaning until I reached 30. Where that lie came from, I can't tell you! But, let me tell you, girl, you are not too young.

In this episode, I share from 1 Timothy 4 and 2 Chronicles 34 about how God can use us in our youth, in our teen years, and in our 20s. There is no such thing as "too young" in the Kingdom of God. It is the blood of Jesus that qualifies us and cleanses us to be a pure home for the Holy Spirit to dwell on the inside. You're not disqualified from hearing God's voice in daily prayer, and you are equipped to do something of meaning in this world.

If you've got dreams on your heart, and you want to be the hands and feet of Jesus, ministering to the lost and broken, then this episode is for you. Please share it with a friend who needs to be encouraged. And, let's get practical!
