In Their Own Words

I know that many of you who read these blogs have been faithfully praying for my sophomores and for God to fulfill His promise for them to meet Tebow. It has been a tremendous blessing and encouragement to me each time one of you has let me know that you have been praying for us...thank you so very much. It occurred to me today, though, that I am not alone in this journey of deepening my faith and realizing the power of prayer...I have seven sophomores who have joined me daily in this journey and I thought that in this blog, you'd like to hear what God has been teaching them about commitment and prayer over the past few months. I hope they are just as much of an encouragement and joy to you as they have been to me...so here are some of them.

     Hi, my name is Isabel and I am in Miss McGuire's homeroom class. I have decided to join in the Unintimidated prayer. Miss McGuire told us to pray about it first before we decided to do it. I prayed about it for a couple of days as Miss McGuire gave us devotions on what we are committing to if we decide to do it. I felt God wanted me to challenge myself on being a prayer warrior. I was scared at first because I haven't been doing my devotions and I haven't been keeping up on my prayer life, but I decided to join the Unintimidated prayer! Ever since I started being a prayer warrior, I have been doing my devotions and praying almost everyday! The Bible says it is better to not make a vow than to make a vow and not do it. This really helped me to keep on praying for Tim Tebow and it helped me do my devotions! When Miss McGuire told us that we ARE going to meet Tim Tebow, our class was ecstatic! This made the prayer even more real! Everyday before lunch, our class comes together and prays for Tim Tebow together. This has definitely brought our class closer. I feel our class has grown a lot spiritually over the past months because of this prayer. My relationship with God is growing more and more each and everyday! In the beginning of the year, I started praying to God that our class would grow spiritually, and he has definitely answered it! God answers prayers!

Aloha, my name is Natalie Allen . I am in Miss McGuire's homeroom class,and it has been a joy. When Miss McGuire first told us about praying for Tebow and becoming prayer warriors I knew I wanted to do it. She said by going into this, it would definitely help us grow closer to God. That's what I wanted, that's what I needed. Throughout this prayer, it definitely has drawn me closer to the Lord. I have learned how to make my prayers really mean something and put my whole heart into them . Also, it brought our whole class allot closer and showed us God's power. One of the things that keeps me believing we truly our going to meet Tim Tebow is Miss McGuire's faith. Without her this whole prayer never would have started and the fact that she hasn't given up and knows we're going to meet him just makes me want to pray more. I'm so thankful for the people who read these blogs and pray with us . It's encouraging to know were not alone in this. I'm excited to meet Tim Tebow ! (:

Hi, my name is Jefferson Henry and I am also in Miss McGuire's homeroom class. A year ago at a Christian teen camp, I decided that I was going to be a prayer warrior. To be honest with you, I had been doing a horrible job at that. When Miss McGuire presented us with the idea of praying for Tim Tebow, I was a big Tebow fan. Not only that, but I thought this would be a great opportunity to start being a prayer warrior again. Since we started, our class has come closer together spiritually, and in our daily lives as friends. It's amazing how much easier it is to serve God when you have friends and a teacher that will keep you accountable. Miss McGuire has helped to encourage us when prayer gets hard, and you begin to get discouraged. I believe that Tim Tebow is really being influenced by our prayers and that we will someday get to meet him. This Unntimidated has taught me that God doesn't always give you what you want when you want it. Sometimes it requires patience, and sometimes He just wants to test our faith in Him. Through this prayer my life has changed spiritually. I have increased in faith, and surprisingly my patience. Meeting Tim Tebow is just going to be the icing on the cake:)

           Hey!!!!!!!My name is Jamie and I am in the Unitmdated! God has shown a lot and has given me more faith since I have started. God has shown me verses in the Bible that have helped me increase my trust in him and assure me that He will answer our prayers about Tim Tebow coming to see us. Sometimes I will just open my Bible and will find verses about prayer and how God will answer in His good timing.Unintimidated has also given me a role model. Tim Tebow is someone I can look to as an open Christian in the world around him. When God answers our prayers and we get to meet him it will be so amazing to see God answer our prayers. Then after it is answered I will thank God for working in my life through this. I thank God that this opportunity has come into my life.      (I underlined,bolded ,and italicized this because I can!!!!!!!!!) 


For those of you who pray for these kids and this request, I hope this has been a blessing and encouragement to you, God is indeed working in their lives through this prayer.

*yes, as you may have noticed, they are a special lot, but I love them dearly and am so excited to see how God is going to use this prayer to build them into warriors for Him.
