Above Average

So what exactly is an Above Average teen? Well, it's someone who goes against the 'status quo'. I am also part of the Rebelution, which is a combined word of rebellion and revolution. It is a group of teenegers who are rebelling against low expectations. That was the birthing of my blog.
An above average teen is a teen who doesn't really care what the world says about them. All that they are really focused on is what God thinks of them and how they are helping to impact the world for Him. Their is a scripture verse that says we are part of this world but not of it. That means that although we may live in a world that is technically living for satan, we are not IT. We do a lot of the things that the world does, we shop, we go to school, we eat (obviously!), we get a job, raise a family etc. But we are not of it. We are of a different race, a whole different people. The human being was chosen by God, made in His image! We are a prime specimen created for power and love. Not to be molded into the world's image. Unfortunately that's exactly what is happening today. Take Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Katie Perry, and Jessica Simpson, to name a few. They all started out as good Christian artists. But what happened? The world came in. It took their pure and virgin hearts and turned them black. What do their songs say about them?
Those are the offspring of the world. But 'average' person. But we, God's chosen people, are ABOVE average! Let's take a look at what above means.
Above-higher in rank, authority, or power.
According to Dictionary.com Abve means to be higher in rank, authority, or power. We have the power to be more than the average person! We have the authority over all other people! We are ABOVE AVERAGE!!!!!!
Just let that sink in for a minute, above average, above average......say it out loud. I am ABOVE average. You are not normal. You are God's chosen vessel to shower this dark and desolate world with His glory and majesty!
