When Clayton and Lily "made Jesus the Boss of their life" it was important to me to help them understand that their lives should be different. They are changed. And made a New Creature in Christ.
I remind them often that the Holy Spirit lives in them, and they are never alone.
God waits to hear from them all the day long. . .
I also have them read Ephesians 6:10-18 (Armour of God)
It teaches them to "Be Strong" &
Pray for one another
Its packed with goodness. . .and I think gives boys "A Healthy Dose of Godly Confidence". . .the right kind.
I want them to know that the ole' Devil will try to trip them up. . .
Someone will make fun of them.
They will be tempted to lie or cheat.
They will laugh at a joke that is unclean.
Etc.
BUT God is more powerful. . . and he lives in him. . . Therefore, he goes before them. . . and paves the way.
"If God is for you, who can be against you?"
