Sometimes I pretend like I'm someone from a movie, like one of those super heroes that save everything. I've always liked Rogue, because my last name is Logue. She saves people, she can shape shift, and she can probably do a cartwheel... Sometimes I'm a little jealous of Rogue, because she seems so perfect to me. She is probably doing what God wants her to do and has a fantastic relationship with him. I have been struggling with what God actually wants me to do in my life, but it has come evident to me lately that right now, all he wants me to do is focus on him. Which is hard! But I believe that God will help me with it no matter what. So, I started to pray every night before i went to bed, which is a little abnormal for me, but I have realized it works! Not only does it make me happier, but it makes me sleep better! And I feel like I have rediscovered God.
Recently I have been asking God to help me be more like him and not only that, but for a friend of mine to heal from some serious emotional pain she has been trying to overcome. She has been coming to youth group with me lately and seemed to really enjoy it. She has been one of my closer friends and I knew she needed God in her life. This Wednesday she came to youth group and approached me saying, " So I think I might want to try out this christian thing." Out of joy I grabbed one of my youth leaders and my Mom and on that beautiful night my friend became a follower of Christ. I am over joyed to know that one of my closest friends can now join me on the journey to Heaven.
We had dinner on Friday and she asked me about what God thinks about sin. I believe that God has sacrificial and unconditional love for us and will always forgive us of our sins no matter what she does, he'll love her, because Jesus died on the cross for her.
Please pray that she will have growth, an everlasting, and unconditional love in her new relationship with God. Pray that she will realize that the grace of God covers every insecurity she might have and that there will always be a God and other people that love her.
His grace saved me and her, which is amazing!
thank you!
