A Sheep in a Pack of Wolves

Ok, so this morning in youth we had a lesson on staying pure until marraige.  We had all heard this speech before and we all have it memorized.  I guess none of us ever realized the importance of this.  We heard about the consequences but never considered that could be on of us if we were stupid.   Then our youth leader (Brian) told us that he has a sixteen year old daughter.  I think we all were like speechless. We had heard this talk from lots of people, but all of them had been Christians since they were young. No one had ever spoke about this form experience.  Brian said he was a junior in high school when he found out his gilfriend was pregnant.  His teenage daughter now wants nothing to do with him and even refuses to speak to him.  I'm hoping everyone in that room (including me) will think before we give in to peer pressure.  

God, thank you for Brian.  Help us all to remember that we are the sheep in this world and it seems  the majority of the world are wolves.  Please, guide us as our shepherd.  Keep us clear of temptation and danger.  I love you. 

Amen.
