Ok, so hey I’m back…again…haha.

I seem to have a really big problem with keeping up with this site, there’s a lot else going on. But, anyways school started Monday; the first school day of 2008! …Terrific

I spent the whole of my Christmas break dreading it, that my dear friends is how much I just looove my high school. And speaking of high school, if yours is anything like mine, talking about God is really tough to do! I guess this town is real church oriented if you want to look at it like that. But a lot of the “Christians” here aren’t. They tend to get all squirmy if the words Jesus, Salvation, or Prayer come up in a conversation. And it not only makes them uncomfortable but whenever I talk to people like that it makes me extremely uncomfortable because you’re not exactly sure what to say to them.

The biggest part is that you can not ( make them believe). There’s a guy I know that I talk to every once in a while and he told me that he doesn’t really believe in God anymore. So, I spent the next half hour of my time trying to convince him that he was wrong, that the big bang is a bunch of kaplooey, obviously it didn’t work. Having a personal relationship with Jesus is something that someone has to decide to do on their own; on their own terms and in their own time.

I know this from personal experience and if you ask around I’m sure that someone will tell they’ve had the door slammed in their face once or twice. It’s very discouraging, but don’t give up. Keep trying to get through to them, but don’t try to shove your belief’s down their throat. That, is the quickest way to push someone away. Just be a friend to them, invite them to bible study, pray for them, be there for them when he/she needs you. And when they start to ask their own questions about God, that’s even better.

So, until next time…
