To live as a christian in this type of world can be quite difficult. Going through the critism of the world and trying not to let it affect your faith. Even in the safest place, we all go through it. I've been hurt, wounded, and thrown down. God puts obstacles in our lives because he loves us and it utterly makes us stronger. I know I'm a lot stronger as a christian than I was before becuase of Him. I was always told to rejoice in times of trials and tribulations becuase in that time, He's not only testing you, but may be calling on you to do something. Faith is to respect, faith is to trust, and faith is to love. My faith in Him may be shaken from time to time, but it only gets stronger with His glory.
I think it's nice to have a child-like faith. Just to love Him with no pressure and to excite with it. I think that's what we need to return to. No pressure, no critism, just to love and rejoice just because you want to. =]
FAVORITE VERSE
John 15:18
"If the world hates you, know that it hated me first"
1 Timothy 4:12
“Don't let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you teach, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity”
ABOUT ME
I'm just your average type of girl. I love to hang out and to just be a kid. I love to teach because connecting with the kids is so easy. haha maybe it'd because i'm just a big kid myself. I've grown and matured physically, mentally and spiritually.. well.. at least I hope i have.. haha. Music's my life. I love to sing, perform and just to listen to all types of music. I've been told that i act more like a guy than a girl.. haha i guess that's my tomboyish features kickin in. But that's not bad. That just means i'm not afraid to play with the guys. I'm sporty and i'm glad im not a total girly girl.. haha. I love my family.. each and every one of them.. from the babies to the elderly, theyre all special to me even if i don't show it. I'm very family bound, but i guess that's how i grew up. I definitely miss my family from all over especially out west and down south. i still may be that shy girl sometimes, but i'm a totally different person when you get to know me.. haha.. so don't be afraid to say hii =]
FYI, I would still like for you to change from a Friday to another day, (Not Sunday) but it doesn't have to be so quick, b/c next week is a Young Adults' Friday anyway! But try to switch...
