Challenge week 2

Hi, everyone.
I am back again, I stopped the challenge on Thursday. The clothes and music challenge that is. But not the bible challenge. I have learned a lot this week.
1. That looks don't matter, it's the inside that counts.
2. That the bible is totally relative to my life.

I was reading Genesis 26-50 this week, and i realized that these people faced some of the same challenges we did like death, lying, jealously, etc. It tears people apart. However, If we are facing something tough we keep it to ourselves or go tell our friends. If they were facing something tough they would go to God and their family. I think we always need to go to God 1st. Our friends can't change anything, They are GREAT, they have a shoulder we can cry on. And they can comfort us with words and give us hugs and make us laugh but that feeling is only temporary. But God can help us for good. He will help you move on.
I think the most touching story for me this week was Joesph's. He faced the concequences of his brother's jealousy. But they turned out to be good in the end. If you haven't read that story yet I think you should read it right away. It was very eye-opening to see that people way back when faced some of the same problems we face today. So those of you who are doing the clothing challenge, Music challenge, tv challenge, Bible challenge, one or all (if any) Keep going you can do it and it is very rewarding.

Lies young women believe

Hey girls,
Last night at my youth group girls only meeting we discussed some pretty heavy topics.
We are studying the book 'Lies young women believe' by Dannah Gresh and Nancy Leigh Demoss. Awesome book from what i heard last night i had a really great time while learning some painful stories and some beautiful. I got to hang out with friends and i realized that i wasn't the only feeling like I was the only one not dating or the only girl who hasn't had her 1st kiss. Also I Learnedthat this world is making all girls "Boy-Crazy" Because of Music, Movies, Tv etc.Its Almost impossible not to be Boy-Crazy unless you really try that means hang out with friends that aren't boy crazy and watch movies that aren't all about love (I got these ideas from church) Another thing i learned is that modesty is very important. Everytime you wear a low cut shirt you imply that you are 'Easy' Guys pay attention to your chest when they can see it instead of you. Its really easy to get caught up in life and this sinful world but you have to try your hardest along with me. I mean how hard do you think it is for your dad or Grandpa to keep pure thoughts when all they can see is your chest? Check out my posts on this. Yes there will be more:-)
