Hey!
I haven't posted in a bit...
I haven't been doing much recently... besides the usual dance, school, YG, etc.
Well, last night I was at Lifeteen, Christ the King's youth group. Usually when I'm at those, I'll hang out with God for a bit, but mostly hang out with friends. Yesterday, I hung out with friends for the designated 'hang out' time, then hung out with God for most of the rest of the time.
It was so awesome.
I have a spot where I go when I just want some alone time with God. I just stand there, or pace back and forth down this aisle and pray, sing, or just listen. It's pretty cool.
Highly recommended: Find a 'God spot' and hang out there a lot. Not saying God is more there than anywhere else, but your body will associate that spot with God. Just how the brain works.
Anyways... Also, pray by yourself before praying for others. Or, better yet, have someone pray for you before you pray for someone else. This can really help with strength during prayer. I found this out the hard way... blah... But yeah, polish up your armour before you help someone else. Verse... verse... verse...
Matthew 7:3 - Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
Sorry if this is out of context or something, but I think it fits pretty well here.
(My hand just twitched... what in the world... anyways....)
So yeah... don't try to help others if you're not ready to get hit. 'Cause we'll get hit. I don't know when, I don't know how, but I know we will. Hey, the devil doesn't like it when we hang out with God. He'll try to push us away. He'll try to attack us in every way he can. Stay strong. Keep the faith, brothers [and sisters]. ~ Paul... the super awesome Epistle guy, for lack of a better name.
Uhm....... yeah! That's it.
Oh yeah, one of my best friends is getting wisdom teeth out tomorrow. Yuck... so please pray for him. Thanks. :)
Peace and love,

P.S. Peace is something God has really been pushing at me. One of my bigger faults is freaking out over the littlest things. I'm getting better, though! So, peace is cool. Peace as in not worrying, not freaking out, not stressing... yeah... I may post more in depth about this later... if I ever get around to it.
P.P.S. This got a lot deeper than I thought it would.... God inspires at odd times, doesn't He?
