Christians can be frustrating

I am upset. No, I am more than upset. I am ticked. Really, really ticked.
My church is having a solemn assembly on Sunday. A solemn assembly is a time when the Israelites would gather and humbly repent before God for their own sins and the sins of their nation. It was a time when they recognized the holiness of God and their utter failings.
Here are some Biblical examples of solemn assembly.  
1 Samuel 7:5-6
2 Samuel 6:14
1 Chronicles 13-18
2 Chronicles 15:9-15
2 Chronicles 20:3-13
2 Chronicles 29:5
2 Chronicles 34:31-33
Ezra 6:16-22
Ezra 8:21-23
Ezra 9:5-15
Nehemiah 8:1
Joel 1:13
Joel 2:12-17
As you can see, it happened numerous times.  I have prayed over this coming Sunday since I have heard about. I am doing everything I can to prepare for it. Our church offered a devotional and I have done it every day. I have kept up my own devotionals and I am fasting from certain things. I will NOT let this Sunday go to waste in my own life. I feel so strongly about it. And here comes my rant. (I thought I should warn you)
I went to the prayer meeting tonight at my church.  We met to pray over Sunday.  I had to be the youngest person there by 20 years. Of the 60 or so people that showed up, less than 10 were under the age of 60.  Really? Did the people my age not know or not care enough? I'd like to believe that they didn't know, but I know better. As much as I love the older generation, they are not the future of our world or nation. They will not be the ones to carry Jesus' name to the nations. They will not be in the workplace standing up for what is right. They will not be teaching future generations. They will not be CEOs or government officials. Who will that be? My generation. We are the future and right now I feel like we are wasting away. "But Katie, it's only one prayer meeting." 
Is it really? 
No, it is not. 
Did you know that the largest Buddhist temple is in Boulder, CO?
 Guess where the largest Islamic training center is. Brooklyn, NY. 
Now guess where the largest church is. South Korea. 
The book Unchristian shows statistic after statistic of my generation pushing church farther and farther away. We are "spiritual" or "religious" but we don't pick one belief or want to offend someone. I don't care if I offend someone because I believe in Christ (I'm not going to throw Jesus in peoples' faces or anything like that, but I will not be ashamed). And you can bet my life, I'm picking one belief, Jesus. Jesus. Jesus.
The saddest part of tonight was that my church knew young people weren't going to show. Not because we weren't invited. Not because they didn't want us there. Because that's how the world sees us and we proved them right tonight. All we sang were old old hymns. Nothing wrong with hymns, but no one in my generation sings them. 
How come something like Passion comes along and we go nuts? Passion City Church? Some cool, trendy, hip conference, concert, whatever and we jump on it. We sit in those conferences and they tell us to be radical. To go out and change the world. And the opportunity comes to humbly, as a church, come before God and ask for forgiveness and prayer for our very VERY lost nation. AND NO ONE UNDER THE AGE OF 30 SHOWS UP!!!!!! WHAT ARE WE DOING?!?!
I have sat in the college environment long enough to hear time and time again "I want to be radical in my faith." "I want to live for Jesus." "I want to do this." "I want to do that." 
I am tired of sitting on the couch and saying "I want to (fill in the blank)." I want to be doing it.  
Like it or not, our world is going to hell in a hand basket and we are practically sending muffins with them! Seriously, we are unworthy to carry HIS name. I am unworthy. I am failing, constantly. And I am tired of it. I want more of Jesus and less of me. I want everything to be counted a loss in comparison to the Cross. I want life, not death. We have the opportunity to pray for our nation this Sunday. The older generation needs to pass the torch and WE need to be ready. 
I am not at all trying to be self-righteous and if that's what you get out of this then you have misunderstood my heart in this. I am angry at myself as much as anyone else. Maybe even more. I am broken. I am worthless. I am nothing.
Here's my challenge anyone who goes to JFBC, take every chance you can to prepare for Sunday. Revival could be around the corner. We are the future. We need to go full on praying and preparing. This world is going to get uglier and uglier. It is going to become more and more lost. However, we need to go down fighting it. I do not want to do this alone. It scares me. You do not want to do this alone. Let's be the body of Christ and band together. Let's prepare to meet God on Sunday. I would love to see more college aged/young adults at Saturday night's praying. It's at 5 in the chapel.
Ok, my head has stopped steaming. This sounds radical. It sounds scary, to me at least. It seems too big to do. But if I can it one day at time. One step at a time, depending on my Savior, I can live His plan for my life. And that's all that this solemn assembly is about. Being in step, focused on the King of Glory. And all I want is the King of Glory. I just want Jesus.
