Make a difference, Don't fall in with the crowd.
I know how you feel.
In the midst of all your friends, family members, neighbors, and other people their influences get to you. Sometimes it is really hard trying to stay firm and act like a Godly teenager would. But it seems like that bad influence or that one person that you think has a life goal to drive you nuts makes you go crazy without your wanting to. There is only one solution to this particular problem. Step 1: Pray. It is important to have the Lord's guidance in every decision you make. Step 2: Read the Bible. The Bible is the most precious book you can ever posess. Read it. Learn from it. Love it. Step 3: Apply what you learned. Sometimes when we re-read the Bible we find things in it that we did not see the last time. Take those things that you learned and try your best to apply it to your everyday life. Step 4: DON'T BE AFRAID TO STAND OUT FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN. The reason why a lot of teens and tweens don't dare say a word to anyone about what they believe in is because of peer pressure or constantly bombarding yourself with the thoughts "If I say something what will they think of me?" "What if they think I'm silly or a weirdo for believing those things" Let ME tell you something, don't let someone else decide what you can or can't be! THIS generation has the BEST source for evangelism in the world, we have the internet and tons of social networks. Instead of listening to, and posting things online that will hurt others, LET'S MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!! If one person does something and inspires another which inspires another in a short time a lot of lives will be changed. And now to end with a verse to keep you thinking, "...they shall return unto thee, but thou shalt not return unto them." Jeremiah 15:19
-Sarah
