God Never Fails
So, beginning last May, I began my transition from being a FUEL student to a FUEL leader. I have to say, words cannot explain how excited and honored I feel to be able to remain a part of FUEL even after graduating high school. For me, FUEL has truly been an answer to prayer. I moved to Georgia almost 4 years ago and my prayer when I got here was to find a group of friends, or even just a single friend, that 1. I could completely be myself around, 2. Would make me a better person, and 3. Loves Jesus and has the guts to show it. This was a prayer that I honestly hadn’t prayed before, but I began to pray and pray to find such friends..and let’s just say, God didn’t let me down! He surprised and amazed me with the way he answered my prayer. The very group of friends I had been praying for, I found at FUEL. FUEL is such a diverse group of kids that, in all honesty, in the past I wouldn’t have imagined myself being friends with. But there was a point where I knew that God wanted me in FUEL, and with His constant nudging and persistence, I found myself among a group of people who were accepting and loving of others, learning and living to love Christ, and who were just absolutely fun to be around. I have grown in my faith and as a person in my past few years in Georgia, and FUEL is much to thank for this. I can’t wait to continue to learn and grow with my fellow FUEL leaders and students, and I truly hope that FUEL is an unexpected answer to prayer to many others as it was to me.
keep prayin’ my daughter.

Great article Brooklyn. I am so proud of you. It is so great to see young people have such a passion for Christ.
Brooklyn,
We often hear from the “older” adults how great fuel and other groups are, but it’s refreshing to hear it from a student’s perspective. My son, VJ, started fuel this year and, already, I see a more confident, and independent person emerging in him. He’s really excited about it. We moved here around the same time you guys did, and my prayer for my kids (and even myself) is that “1. They would find friends they could completely be themselves around, 2. Friends that would make them better people/Christians, and 3. Friends who love Jesus and have the guts to show it.”
God DOES answer prayer doesn’t he? And you are a shining testament!
You’re going to make for an excellent Leader! Best wishes to you at Kennesaw State!
Brooklyn = Brooklynn, sorry!
