Organized by the youth ministry, they managed to get the word out to students from 21 high schools and close to 50 Universities. The hall, the entrance and the parking lot were filled with youths! It was nothing short of a great night as the youths enjoyed loads of food, special performances, music, dance, and exciting videos by the creative media of CHCKL.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13257\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13257\" style=\"width: 565px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13257 wp-caption aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/christianitymalaysia.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Caption-One-of-the-many-food-stands-located-outside-during-EUPHORIA-1024x710.jpg\" alt=\"One of the many food stands located outside during EUPHORIA\" width=\"565\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/christianitymalaysia.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Caption-One-of-the-many-food-stands-located-outside-during-EUPHORIA.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/christianitymalaysia.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Caption-One-of-the-many-food-stands-located-outside-during-EUPHORIA-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 565px) 100vw, 565px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13257\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the many food stands located outside during EUPHORIA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">The rally captured the hearts and minds of many youths, many were very responsive.

He talked to them about decisions in life and said \u201cChoose life! Every one of us has got the capacity to choose. You choose how you want to live your life.\u201d If you\u2019re in school and you want to get an \u201cA\u201d then you need to choose to pick up a book, as easy as that. The Holy Spirit helps those who help themselves. We know that books are important because, \u201cGod sent His son but left His book! Books will not go any faster than your ability to read them\u201d shared Pat.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">You choose your life, however there are of course some things you did not choose about yourself. With that Pat then started talking about how he wasn\u2019t able to choose his height. However, there are things you can choose, like to live a pure life and even how you react in situations. \u201cIf someone spits on you, they didn\u2019t make you mad, they just made you wet.

Make sure you make the best out of your life on earth. \u201cIf you want to be prosperous, go where prosperous people go, read what prosperous people read, listen to what they listen to.

Additionally, if you refuse to be poor, then you need to take steps to educate yourself. The point is things just don\u2019t happen with the snap of a finger.

If you esteem your mom and dad, you will be obedient to them, even when they\u2019re wrong\u201d he said. Weighing the importance of things is crucial.
