hard.. need prayers

((<--my car))

So, I would just like to ask for some prayers. I had a wreck on Monday;; almost a week ago. Well the highway patrol man filed an accident report on it, so my parents are expecting that to reach the insurance company. AND... my insurance to double, and because I am a teenage I am already considered an "un-safe" driver and now if the report reaches them then I would be considered a "high risk un-safe" driver. Also, my dad is expecting me to be able to hand him the money to fix my car as soon as he get the parts for it... And on top of it all, my church is building a new church and I committed to putting so much money towards it. I have been unable to pay any yet. But, when I get the money I plan on catching that up first because I made a promise to God. And, if it ends up I cant pay my insurance and to fix my car then I will end up not driving until I get the money and can. Who knows maybe that is something I am suppose to give up in order to put more towards my church. But, I would just really appreciate some prayers to help me get my mind sorted out and to get on the correct track that God wants for me right now. Thank you everyone. Also, I am thinking about trying to find a new job that would pay more or something;; that is something I do not know about at this moment. Thanks again.

new study

I just started a new study. I hope to have some of my notes up shortly. Maybe some of ya'll will follow along with me. && a little about my day. They are starting to get a little crazy. Thanks.

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to say that I am still getting on here and that I have been busy but, I plan to put up another blog soon. I work at Ingle's in Canton. They have had me up there almost every day recently. So, that makes it a little bit harder to get on here and keep this up.

My brother has been at Snowbird. Where he got an infection in his leg under the skin. He has been at the doctor every day for almost the past week. Him, my mom, and my dad are there right now talking with the doctor about possibly putting him in the hospital!! I hope he doesnt have to go but, it needs to hurry up and heal up.

Well thats all for now! Ill be back with another post to let you know whats going to happen with him! Please keep him in your prayers! Thanks!

justin WINNER! *7 in a min*

Style Tip

Okay now. So, this weekend I went to the Revolve conference in Atlanta for Christians teen girls. Also, basically it was AWESOME! YEAH! Well I must say my favorite quote from this conference was said during the question and answer portion of it.

The question was about style tips and the response was "Modest is hottest!" The dictionary definition of modest is having or showing a moderate or humble estimate of one's merits, importance, etc.; free from vanity, egotism, boastfulness, or great pretensions.

Well I would just like to say in your dressing styles you are not there to please some boy or to please some girl but your should be dressing to please God. Not to show off your body like the culture we live in today wants us to do. And in order for us to look like the culture wants us to look like means skinny and "sexy". But, did you know the average teenage girl in America weighs 144 pounds and is a size 12. Our culture does not want us to know that. But, I encourage you to dress the way that you would please God and not go crazy over a weight factor. Because there is a fine like of obsession and health. A lot of girls cross that fine line and end up with a problem. Please do not let that happen to you or someone you know.

[Jeremiah 4:30] What are you doing, O devastated one? Why dress yourself in scarlet and put on jewels of gold? Why shade your eyes with paint? You adorn yourself in vain. Your lovers despise you; they seek your life.

God's helping hand

well well well.

Lets see.

Today I put up with my little sister who was in the worst mood E*V*E*R! And when I say ever I mean ever. [♥[haha]♥] Then I went and taped up trash bags to the windows so we can do this thing for youth sunday (which is tomorrow -- prayers please) and then praticed singing and the drama thing we are doing! So, that was a long day at church (2pm-8pm) And now I am at my friend -michelle- house so we can work on the extra part that we added on to the drama thing for her to do. Oh, and also work on our sunday school lesson which, get this, was locked in our Pastor Alan's office tonight, so we are having to get there at like 7 in the morning to work on our lesson before sunday school. -Talk about putting it off to the last minute.- What a day, huh? Haha another funny thing is I am sick on top of everything else that went on today! [lol.] Now you cant tell me that that isn't just the icing on the cake! But all in all I must say today was a FANTASTIC day, (and I mean that in the good way not the scarcastic one) because I was doing work for God!! Today has been a day that has proved to me that even in the worst places and the worst things that could be going on with God's help you can get through it (no matter what)! [[hey I think I might end up using that in our sunday school lesson for tomorrow!]] Nothing can be bad when you are doing that! And that is another reason I cannot wait for tomorrow to come. It is going to be PACKED with work for God, and honestly I do not believe that I could get it done successfully without God's helping hand!

But, lets kinda change the subject forget me and my day leave some comments on what God has done for you today or recently, and if you cant think of something you haven't thought hard enough because there is not one day that that God does not do something for you!!

A few questions

Take some time and think back through your life and leave some comments answering these questions.....

MIRACLES

Miracles all the time. Think about the miracles that have happened to you in your life. Miracles can be BIG or small. Leave some comments on some miracles you have gone through. Or just some things that you notice or think are special, I believe those are miracles too. For example, to be able to sit at a table with your family and eat supper or the gorgeous leaves that change from green to some beautiful colors in fall.

3 Questions

If you could ask God, or whoever you think to be an all-knowing entity, any three questions and recieve the answers to them, what would your questions be? Why would you ask these questions, what would you hope the answers to these questions would be, and how would knowing the answers change your life or the things that you have done?

Childhood

What is a very vivid childhood event that has become very important to you?

Achieving a Goal

What is a time that you have achieved a personal goal? Why was this goal so important to you?

Light-bulb Moment

Have you ever had a time in your life when all of a sudden something clicked? What happened to help you finally get it?
