An incredible story of mine.

If you're reading this and you never heard of Dare2Share, I hiiiiighly recommend that you should check it out. Seriously.
I've been to a Dare2Share conference 2 times.
Basically, Dare2Share is a gathering where thousands and thousands (about 7,000) teenagers & their youth leaders challenge each other to share the Gospel to people who may or might not believe in Christ. The first day you stay in the Pershing Auditorium for 5 hours, and the next day you stay their all day with breaks to go out to eat somewhere. Their is a Christian band that tags along with the Dare2Share ministries. Greg Stier and Zane Black are mostly the guys who host the gathering.
Each year, I cry. Dare2Share emotionally hits you hard. It's not a bad thing, but it makes me realize soo much each year. Every time I go I feel like a better person at each conference. This year's main topic was about sinning, and one of the sins that I have done has good/bad memories that I don't like to remember to this day. This beginning of the year I have been stressed out all the time, and the stress usually focuses on one main topic, and it sucks. I'm like, "Hey. When is this going to enddddddd?" I mean, I'm doing the right thing here. I'm watching out for my friends, I don't want them to get hurt like the way I have.
So the Dare2Share people gave us this tiiiiny piece of paper. It said, "What is one of the sins that you are most shameful of?" I knew exactly which one. Some of you guys who read my blog may know what sin I am talking about. Ever since I committed that sin everything started to tumble down, and God has been giving me signs that this is what happens when I do something I shouldn't have done. We put it the piece of paper in our pocket for a couple of hours when we did an activity outside of the conference to pick up trash at a school in Lincoln. We came back, Greg told us to take it out. Mentally I had what my shameful sin was on that paper. He told us to rip up that piece of paper into pieces, hold those pieces tightly and pray along with him. I don't remember exactly what he said during that prayer, because everything he said made me cry. But I knew what I was thinking, I was really sorry for what I have done and it has weighed me down ever since I committed that sin. After we prayed, I was still crying. Our youth leader picked up the pieces from my hands and whispered to me that I was forgiven, and I imagined God really telling me that. I have been ashamed for sooo long.
But I realized that it was finally time to let go and move on that day.
And now, I am completely free. It feels so great.
Dare2Share is awesome. It rocks.

I think that there should be more Dare2Share conferences. Many teens would love it.
It's an amazing experience.
