3:39 pm	accountability ya i know i havent updated in quite some time. but it's that time again. time to get ready for school. i just wanted to say a few things that might help you stay strong in school, especially highschool. i would really encourage you to find someone you can talk to about anything and that will help you in your walk with Christ. the past two years have been really tough for me in school, but this year ive got two really good friends that im going to stay close with and keep up with. i think its going to help me a lot, mainly because i dont have many Christian friends at my school. good luck in your next year of school!

4:38 pm	I'm not really sure what God wants me to say, but I hope He speaks through me. I've learned over the past two years that high school is hard not only with grades and popularity, but also just falling away from God. I'm not in what would be considered the "cool group", but I still have some awesome friends! My main problem was and still is that I don't like people not liking me, so I sometimes get defensive when I'm around those people. The reason I'm telling you this is because this really takes me away from God when I start trying to be who those people want me to be. I haven't gotten involved in the drinking or smoking stuff, but I have experimented some with the cursing stuff. Trust on this one, none of it's worth it. I did it just to be "cool", but really I was just growing further apart from God, which is definitely not cool. Finally, when I realized what I was doing, I prayed very hard, because I felt so bad and I thought my relationship with God would be the same. I was half way right, because it wasn't the same, it actually got a lot better. But, the time I spent away from God is now wasted time, and for what? To be "cool"?! It definitely wasn't worth it in the end. I hope God speaks to you through this. Current Mood: content (3 Comments |Comment on this)
