Relationships...yep I got something to say about them...maybe a little bit of rambling too...don't blame me, I haven't blogged in a while. Okay so I am going to have to post my posts in the title box because Blogspot doesn't like me. So here it goes:Alright, first off, I must say that I like relationships (romantic relationships to be more specific). So I am not going to ward them off. Lemme just say a few things about this: Befriend a person before the dating begins. I seem to think it helps, but I haven't had much experience....But it seems that relationships last longer and are more comfortable if you know the person well before you start dating. And the other thing. Have you ever heard someone say, " I want a girl/guy who makes me go through God to get to them"? Or something like that? Well it IS true. But it is hard to understand until you find someone like that. God is their first priority. I frequently struggle with that and I'm sure many others do too. I found it once. It was truly amazing to see what he could do. I mean, no matter what happened, no matter what difficulties he went through, he still could look to God for all the answers. I'm still not sure how he is able to achieve this, but it is truly amazing. It helped me too. Seeing him able to do all of this inspires me to try harder with my struggling faith. That is the kind of person you want to find. And obviously, not everyone is like that. But hey, if you find one, keep them. Or strive to have lots of faith. Bless y'all! Being a teen can be weeeeeeeeeeeird sometimes. :)

What makes you happy? I have a hard time with that question too! Well currently I am reading Fahrenheit 451 and let me tell you, it is baffling! For those who haven't read this classic, this book takes place in the future. Basically, it's a world full of superficiality. Short school days, all everyone does is play, or watch a televisor. Now that may sound fun sometimes, but people are just hollow shells, no potential for  anything. And the worst part is, all books in the world are burned! There are firemen who burn them. Supposedly books are bad, but really they are burned to keep people from free thinking. Well Guy Montag (a fireman) has had enough. He starts to wonder what the big deal is about books.  Maybe he will find the answer to life. Maybe he will find happiness. All he wants is to be happy and find some kind of fulfillment in life. But he is unable to find it in Christ because this superficial world Guy lives in has changed the image of Christ to be no more than a silly cartoon advertiser! Oh what Guy must be thinking. I must read on!

Sometimes...

Sometimes sin is like food. Sometimes church is like exercise. After going to church you feel so ravenous and hungry for Christ. You just can't get enough. But as soon as you indulge in sin, you're full. There's no more room for God! But reading the Bible fills you up with 'fruit' knowledge. So try to indulge yourself in the Bible and becoming full with the word of Christ. And if you have a hard time doing that, just know that you ARE NOT alone. I, for one thing have a very hard time reading my Bible. I need to strive to read in WAY more than I do! So you're not alone! Plus, reading the Bible may solve all your problems! Today in youth group we read Collosians 3. It talks about how God's chosen people (all true believers) should be like: compassionate, kind, humble, gentle, patience, forgiving and loving!

Adding on to the last post..

...

Wives and Husbands

3:1 Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives, when they see your respectful and pure conduct. Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are her children, if you do good and do not fear anything that is frightening.
Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you [1] of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.

Whenever you become attracted to someone, always ALWAYS be aware of your morals. And honestly, everyone (and I do mean EVERYONE) needs to know that it's ok not to follow what society says. It's OKAY to be abstinent before marriage. In fact, I strongly believe in it. You are the one who decides how far to go. Don't go further than you want. You WILL regret it. huh....I just wish people nowadays would wake up and realize that you can't just throw yourself around and do EVERYTHING with EVERY person.

I would like to recant my statement about makeup. Yes, sometimes I don't feel that pretty. So I uise makeup and straighten my hair. What I meant to say is that maekup and hair straighteners and etc should not be a major priority. You shouldn't focus on how ugly you feel! Everyone is beautiful in their own way!

This morning when you woke up, how long did it take you to put on your makeup? Why do you even put on makeup? Some people think that looking good is all the y need to be accepted. That is not true. I do not wear makeup everyday. I don't constantly straighten my hair. I try to feel confident about myself no matter what anyone says! It doesn't matter what others think! Do YOU fell pretty? Do YOU feel confident? I hate that nowadays people hate themselves just for their looks! That's not how it should be!

Interests

This is exactly what I would do. Books can do anything. They can help you let go of your problems or even help your problems. Just leave the world for a while and read a book!

Do you have a special "God moment" that you've had? Something that makes you feel like God is there?

Well I won't go into great detail. But sometimes when I'm in the park or somewhere and I feel down, I see a butterfly. But it's a particular kind of butterfly. And every time I see it, I know God is there.

Stay strong

Everything happens for a reason. God has a plan for you. I of all people would know that even if something doesn’t seem good at the time, it will turn our for the better. And now that I think about, it may not be for the better of you, but for the better of others! You just gotta believe that God will do what’s best!
