Delirious

I find it so annoying when I think of loads of stuff to write but when I got to it I can't remember!
On Thursday I had such a cool day, firstly I had the day off school because of the snow, but it was mainly ice. Then in the evening I went to a Delirious concert. They are so cool, if no one knows who they are, they are a Christian rock band. It was really good, everyone was praising God and jumping up and down and Martin Smith (the lead singer) stood on top of the crowd. I really felt God the night, I also thought it was amazing when they played the song that I've been constantly listening to last week. I felt God was telling me how glorious and wonderful He is and how I can make a difference and how everything is possible with him! Praise the Lord!

Love

Does Jesus love you? Why?
I know He loves me :)

Snow!

Snow, snow, snow!
How amazing, it's snowing at last, I love snow I'm like a little child when it comes to snow.
Yesterday I wasn't very well, so I stayed home I watched this film called castle in the Sky' it is a great film. You have to see it! At the end of the film the girl and boy have to say a spell of destruction for laputa(the castle in the sky) to save the rest of the world, by saying this they thought they would also die, but they didn't. But the thought of them taking the risk to die to save the world reminded me of how Jesus died for us, to save the world!

Life

Hmm...I was trying to guess what the (4 day test/life) situation was going to be like before I did them, and when I actually got to them it was nothing like I expected, but I'm not going into details!
I really need a buzz in my life at the moment, I need someone I can talk to about God and feel like they are listening to me and taking in what I say, but who? I've been thinking about my life and my future and wondering what I'm going to be like when I'm older. What job I will get, if I get married or not (I hope I do). Is there anyone who felt like this when they were a teenager and now they have a job etc. Is like what you expected or did God tell you what you would be doing?

4 tests in 4 days!

When I say that I mean tests/steps whatever you want to call it in 4 days. I feel God has told me this and so far it has happened. I'm on my 2nd test and really I don't know what it is or what they are but I feel like whatever I do it will have an affect on the rest of my life, spooky! Oh, I've got a headache now, it's weird I never get headaches, ever!
Even though I'm on the 2nd day of my 4 day walk I've only realised that it would be clever to go through this with the armour of God on:

Eph 6:10-18 (NIV) ...Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armour of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled round your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints

...Now I'm ready!

Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet: that's our next coursework topic in English. I was so happy when I found out that we were doing this because already knew the story and I enjoyed it. So watch out!
I feel like my life is arranging itself now, I've made sure that I have a diary with me, so I know what I'm doing etc. And the weekend that I had seems to feel more...secure?!
I learnt today that adults still have arguments and discussions like kids but I could see how mature they were about it. I wasn't expecting to hear some of the things I did because it was really mature and I realised that even though I think I can be quite mature, I'm not as half as mature as some of my older friends. And that makes me think about the immature life I could be living, but I don't know if I should totally listen to my parents or if I should experience life (as long as it stays within the laws of the Bible.) I suppose that's why they call it life?!

I shouldn't really be writing on here at the moment because i'm meant to be doing some work. But I've the most interesting weekend. When I say interesting I don't mean the best I mean an experience well learnt. At least I can say by the end of it God listens and I can trust in God always and forever he will never let me down ever and I prasie him for it.

Alrite, I'll try and tell you what God has been saying to me but it may not be interessting. Well I think he has been telling me that to be able to help youth when I'm older I need to get experience now. Everyweek on a friday i run a Christian union at a lunchtime. We've been doing this for about a year and it has only really started to pick up. At the beginning we had loads of big plans and wanted to get around the world and stuff like that, but we hadn't yet started properly and got use to it. I think we wanted to run before we could walk. Anyway, Christian union wasnt going very well so I brought a youthbook to help me run the meetings. I was flicking through the book and at the back of it, it was advertising jobs for youthworkers and pastors etc. So i read the youthworker part just to see what it would say and at the bottom it was saying that you need experience and qualifications. So it made me think! And I feel God was telling me to start planning for my future and ge to know what it will be like. I don't know if that made any sense but it does to me hehe!

Wow, I really want to thanks everyone for giving me their opinions, it was really great. I didn't realise that people read my site! I'm really happy at the moment because I made my computer PINK!
Well back at school this week, sorry I haven't been writing it was because I had a load of coursework to do and trying to sort out my first week back. This week has seemed to take forever:
On moday I had my braces taken out/ went to choir/ homework
On Tuesday I had my retainers in/ went to my singing lesson/ did coursework/ watched a film
On Wednesday I did lots of coursework
On Thursday more coursework and organising Christian union (which went really well today I'm really happy)
And today I've been to the dentist/ piano lesson/.....and not writing on here.......and life plods on!

I spent last night thinking about what to write on here today and now I've come to it I can't think of anything to write. So (I'm not ripping you off Greg by saying this) but if anyone has any ideas about what to write I would appreciate it, obviously I'm not going to say things that are really private.

In todays society teenagers are known to be useless troubles makers and people who need a lot of guidance in life. Yeh, I'm a teenager and I am also someone who needs help in life. There are about a 10 teenagers at my church who are all unique but we all need help. But the teenagers at my church don't have a youth group which really upsets all of us because
1. It means we don't have a youth leader to help us
2. It annoys the adults when we stay in the meeting because we get bored
3. We can't invite our friends to church because it will be boring for them
4. We will eventually get bored and float away from God
5. We are the next generation of the church and we need to know now what is right and wrong

.....I don't see what's so hard about starting up a group, we already have someone who is more than willing!What do you think (please leave a message below)

Wow a new year. At church in the past few weeks our pastor has been talking about starting a fresh for the new year because its a gift we only get once a year. And through the meetings he was talking about how to act and what to think about and how to trust God to help. I read the following verse in the newsletter, it must of had a big impact on me at the time because I circled it many times
"Yes, when Christ died, he died to defeat the power of sin just once-enough for all time. He now has a new life, and his new life is with God. In the same way, you should see yourselves as being dead to the power of sin and alive with God through Jesus." - Romans 6:10-11 NCV
Actually I've just read that verse in my youth Bible and it makes it so clear and I understand why I circled it.

Normally I never have new year resolutions and if I do they only last for about a week. But this year I said all the things that I want to stick at and do well in. For example getting good grades and passing exams and doing more exercise. I really want this year to be different and I'm going to make the most out of it. Happy new year and God Bless!
