Sermons for Youth: Reflections

A son and his father were walking in the crisp clean air of the Swiss Alps.

In rugged terrain, the son slips and falls – letting out a shout of pain:
"AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

To his surprise, he hears a voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain.
"AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Curious, he yells: "Who are you?"
He receives the answer: "Who are you?"

Angered at the apparently mocking response, he screams: "Coward!"
He hears the reply: "Coward!"

In confusion, he looks to his father who says: "My son, pay attention."

He screams to the mountain: "I admire you!"
The voice answers: "I admire you!"

"You are a champion!"
The voice comes back: "You are a champion!"

The boy is surprised, but still so does not understand. The father continues:

"People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE.
It gives you back everything you say or do.
Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.

If you want more love in the world, find more love in your heart.
If you want to challenge others to new heights, climb the mountains God sends your way!

“Life will give you back everything you have given to it."

Your life is not a coincidence. It is a reflection of you!

“The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.
- Matthew 12:35”
