A funny thing will often happen when you stand up for these things you believe- your peers will respect you. Sure, it may be funny/cute or whatever to people that you're the kid who doesn't drink, do drugs, or "always does the right thing," but if you're steadfast in your walk, you may see those same people that laughed at you come to you when they realize they need to be saved! "Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ" Galatians 1:10 Good stuff, Chris!

It sounds wierd, but people are really just curious and dont look to laugh at you but me being the insecure person i am, see it as just a thing people laugh about. But yeah but by lookin at what Jesus did and knowing it was all for us, it makes me know that i can do this for him. Yeah so thanks chris i need to do remember that a lot more while im talking to my friends in school and outside of school. yeah thats true because i (and im sure many other people to) have big trouble with opening up to people and telling them why i have committed my life to God.

I loved seeing many of you being able to relax at different points in the weekend, you all live such very busy and stressful lives.

I do feel more open now to share my faith. I also forgave someone very important to me this weekend, that didnt know Christ, but now its amazing after that I can see God working inside of this person and its so heart warming and amazing!
