Yourself

Throughout our lives, teenagers and adults, we will be pressured by our peers to conform to their lifestyles. There is especially a lot of pressure on teenagers. We go to school and want to fit in and get along with others, and to obtain that we change ourselves. We do what others tell us and do not act as ourselves. We wear what others wear and do as others do. But, God wants us to be ourselves and wants us to be what he created. Be yourself, do not be afraid, it matters not what others think of you, because we are already accepted in Gods eyes. He loves us unconditionally.

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good.
His love endures forever.

Psalm 136:1

We are made in God's image. God is the potter and we are clay. We are all equal in his eyes. It doesn't matter what you look like or how you act. No matter what, God will always love us. We need not worry what others think of us, because in Gods eyes we are all equal and wonderful.

Yet, O LORD, you are our Father.
We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of your hand.

Isaiah 64:8

Do not be afraid to be yourself and to praise God. The world may not understand why you choose to be yourself and why you praise God, but God understands, and that is all that matters.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

Psalm 139:14

Alive

Today is the Easter! Jesus Christ is alive and great. He has died for our sins and given us his amazing grace.

"Don't be alarmed," he said. "You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.

Mark 16:6

Let us praise his name and spread the good news today.

He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.

Mark 16:5

To help understand the sacrifice that God made for us, please watch this video. I hope it helps you as much as it helped me.

Good Friday

Today is Good Friday, the day of which Jesus Christ was crucified and died for our sins. Only 5 days ago, on Palm Sunday, was he praised and worshiped. How quickly the people turned against him. This can relate to our own lives, when we are quick to blame God and quick to turn against him. Throughout our lives, we have many difficulties and desires, so we pray to God to help us and give us things, but when he does not answer, we are quick to anger and begin to lose faith. But just because God does not answer every prayer, does not mean that he doesn't love you. God knows whats best for you and has a plan for you. He has something better in store.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jeremiah 29:11

Have faith and do not turn against God when your prayers are not answers. God knows best and has plans to give you something even better. God knows what you want and need and he will provide. He has already provided the greatest gift of all, we are already blessed by his amazing grace.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God

Ephesians 2:8
