Every Tuesday Night in San Marcos de Colon, Honduras, our group holds a devotional with about three hundred young people. We have seen such a change between our services last year and this year. Last year, we saw many young people receive Christ and their savior but this year the amount of professions of faith have been less.
Unfortunately, technology has reached this small town. Their are now Internet Cafes where kids can spend many hours each day on the internet for a very low cost. Reality has changed in the minds of the young people in Honduras. We hear more talk about chat rooms and widgets and instant messages instead of milking the cows, cutting fire wood and picking coffee. For the first time, these kids have an opportunity to look into a computer to see what other kids are doing around the world.
The internet can become like watching an action movie. No matter how many cars blow up or how many bullets are fired, the hero never gets killed. They also have a chance to read about other religions and sects which is brain washing the minds on these once open minded young people.
Here is what I know. The Holy Spirit is stronger than any force in this world and it may be harder today to win people to the Lord but we must do our duty and follow our calling by preaching the Gospel of Christ. Results are wonderful but are job is not to save, it is to preach the Gospel.
Please keep our ministry in your prayers so we can keep preaching about the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
