A Story of 'Stepping Out'

Share My Story
After lots of fun and games at an EPIC Youth LIVE night, we started worship. I was standing next to one of the younger boys and part way through worship I had a real sense that there was something God wanted me to share with him. I started to pray and the Holy Spirit started to say a few things. I went and spoke to a leader and let her know what I was feeling and to check if it was ok to share it with him. We decided I would go and grab his life group leader and we would have a chat with the boy together.
We sat down and I began to explain that sometimes God will tell people things, called a 'word', to pass on to another person. I told him I felt God was telling me that he has blessed this boy with immense courage and strength. He would have the courage to talk to other people and encourage them, and be courageous in his own decisions and situations. In addition, there would be a softness about him that other people will see and feel. His leader added that sometimes he might be put in tough situations where God would use him to bless other people and he himself would grow from that.
The look on his face was amazing, he looked like he felt so encouraged and special to know that God has planned these things for him. He seemed so happy and his whole demeanor changed for the rest of the night
