So my boyfriend got this for me because he saw a status of mine on Facebook saying I wanted it. He’s amazing. Nbd.
He is with us.
I went to a football the other day. I get really into my sports, and my boyfriend was playing, so that made me freakout even more. The refs were calling the dumbest things on my team. For example: the players on the sideline were too close to the field resulting in a 15 yard penalty. They called that TWICE. I’ve never even heard of that! We won, regardless of the refs efforts to be butt heads. It made me think, in life, it feels like everyones against us sometimes. It might be a teacher, a group of people, or even your family. We always have God though. Be strong and courageous. “Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6 NIV)
I just wanted that to be a post of encouragement (: may God bless your day!
High School
I’m in high school. I hate it a lot. Its a small school so things get around in a matter of seconds, and everyones a suburb millionare. I’ve gone to my school since I was in pre-k, so have most of my classmates. We have a major “click” issue. Most girls have so much money they buy a new outfit every other day to wear to school. I’m not being bitter or involving in petty jealousy, but they act like if you don’t do that, then you’re some sort of pity case or a hobo. I’m one of five kids and my dad works at my school as a maintenance director (or janitor boss), and my mom works at my church part time, so it’s not like I’m rolling in the dough. A lot of people there too are sticks, so when they see someone (like me) that isn’t built like that, they immediately think you’re a slob and say your fat. Yeah, it’s really awesome.
My school is a Christian school so it upsets me that nobody cares about living like Christ, even at a school. It’s awful thinking that a non-believer might come see the school one day and think that all Christians are as self absorbed and bratty as the ones that go to my school. I know a lot of people think Christians are a bunch of nuts that think we are better than everyone else. No ones perfect, and I’m not saying that I am. We all fall sort of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). I just want to please God and advance is kingdom so desperately that I see these people at my school as a set back. I often want to go public school so I can be a light in the darkness, but I want to stay at my school so I can have a firm foundation in my faith.
School, to me, is a place where I should be refreshed and reassured of my faith, but instead, I’m put down and all anyone talks about is drama! Gosh, sometimes I just wanna stand on a lunch table at school and just tell everyone to shut up! It’s frustrating that everyone’s always looking for the negative in a person, or a bad situation so that they can talk about it with their friends. Like seriously? Is your life so boring that all you have to talk about is people and their problems? That’s pathetic.
I hope no one takes any offense by this blog, I just wanted to put my frustrations out there.
