The long and twisted journeys of life, are journeys we did not plan.. but journeys we must travel down to get to our final destination. Lets make the best of it, eh?

God; he isn't my religion, he's my life.
Some people us the term- Jesus Freak. I smile politely, and nod, because they are pretty much right. I am a freak for Jesus, and I'm proud to be. God is the only one that understands every little aspect of my life. He is the one i go to at anytime of the day to pray to. We aren't allowed to really talk about religion in school, because of the atheist is guess- but i do anyway. I can't imagine my life without God, or the Bible. If i can be chose to be remembered by one thing; it would be for the girl who valued her religion. I was baptized on January 16, 2011. I know most of the people i know were baptized as a child, but i am a Nazarene. We believe that the child is dedicated to the church and when the child grows into a teenager, they get to make their own choice to be baptized. I would have it no other way. I am so happy that i made the choice to be baptized, my parents would have never baptized me, they didn't ever take me to church- let alone pray with me. My biggest fear for my religion in the future, is that people are going to get so involved with the things Satan tempts them with- drugs, alcohol, adultery, bad influences and things along those lines, that the people of America, will come to forget religion, God and everything that has to do with faith. I can see it in the hallways- people making bad choices, guys getting high in the morning and hoping no-one notices, people with the smell of alcohol on their breaths thinking no one would care, seeing girls walk around our school revealing everything that they do, thinking it's all fun. But they will soon learn it's only fun and games until you end up pregnant. My sisters all had children at a very young age. I still can't believe that after watching two sisters ahead of her, my second youngest sister; Sabrina had a kid at 16. I strongly believe in sexual purity and everyone i know, knows that. After watching Erika; my oldest sister, struggle to keep my nieces and nephews on tight leash allowing them to get piercings, skipping school and making themselves look like they are a young streetwalker at the age of 13, i know in my heart that true love does wait. I am a product of non- sexual purity. It sucks knowing that my parents didn't hold the morals i choose to hold. God with-holds in me, someone who will fight for what i believe in, someone who will try and help everyone i can. I am praying for a future that includes that religion is not hidden. That students, principles, teachers and coworkers can speak of their religion freely. My personal prayer every night is very personal- but i want to allow my spiritual life to be opened to anyone who knows me; Hey God; today was awesome! Thank you for allowing me to realize i had the courage to talk to that one person, that i opened up with my head held high and allowed my past happenings to come out it a sane way allowing her to know why i scared and hurt. Thank you for allowing me to have the wisdom when it came to English today, when Chrissy and i spoke up about Genesis. Please be with my grandma tonight as the pain she feels fades away so she can have a night filled with rest. Be with my God daughter; Rylee who is probably giving her mother a hard time about going to sleep and will get up in the morning terrorizing her brother! Be with the Robinson's as they prepare to move into their new home. Be with my friends, allow them to know you. Be with me, Mr. Kevin as well as Miss Mazurkawicz and everyone who will be at static tomorrow. Allow them to speak freely, and to know if they have any problems at all, they can come to us. Be with the students who are creating the new prayer group. Let them know that what they are doing is wonderful and i will surely be attending. Lord just be with everyone who needs you. You were there for me today when the tears were pressing against my eyes and you pushed them away. Let me be at peace with myself for the things i have said to my mom. Forgive me, for the harsh words i said to her at one of the previous court cases that made her upset. Forgive me for not always having the best words to say. Please help fulfill me in anything that i am lacking in my faith. Thanks God! Amen
