You may never know how much your presence matters to a kid.

Jason probably doesn’t remember the basketball games.

Fred probably wondered if that awkward dinner and movie night made any difference.

Aaron probably wasn’t thinking about how one invitation could shape the trajectory of my life.
But I remember.

Looking back, I can see what I couldn’t see then: God was using ordinary men who were simply willing to show up.

That’s the encouragement for every youth leader, mentor, coach, parent, and volunteer: Stop carrying the pressure to produce the fruit.

Your job is to be faithful.
Be with Jesus. Show up. Do what He asks. Be like Jesus.

Plant the seed. Water it. Love the kid in front of you.
God is the one who makes it grow. You may think it’s just another day.

It might be the day a kid remembers for the rest of their life.

🗣️ Call out the GOLD! Focus on the good when the world focuses on the bad. Someone in your life needs it more than you know.

“Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?” — Romans 2:4

What does “success” look like in mentoring relationships?

For some, it’s a mentee who checks every box, says the right things, and follows the right steps.

But that’s not the Kingdom measure. The Kingdom measure is faithfulness.

“Well done, good and faithful servant.” (Matthew 25:23)

Don’t chase behavior - chase faithfulness. Show up when no one’s watching. That’s what God rewards!

There’s a famous quote by John Donne: “No man is an island.”

We were never made to carry our stories alone, and every scar, every gift, every hard-won lesson we’ve survived was never meant to stay hidden. God places people in our path so we can walk each other home.

FAITHFULNESS > FRUITFULNESS. Focus on showing up. God will take care of the growth.

Kids often are destroying themselves to prove they matter. But your presence can prove it instead.
