Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hey, I've been really stressed recently and I'm trying do good in school, strengthen my walk with the Lord, choose the right friends as well as be an individual and not become an 'all work and no play' kind of person but everything seems to be falling apart. Also, I really want to take Japanese but my school dosn't offer it though two other schools in my district do so I'm contemplating switching schools even though I would leave all of my friends behind.

I ask that you would pray for guidance for me, that the Lord would tell me where he wants me to go and what he wants me to do.

Also, I have one friend that claims to be Christian but shows no sign of it. I really don't want to worry about her and know that she is going to heaven. Please pray for her that God would lay it on her heart to persue a more Godly life.

Thanks!

P.S. We watched a film called Invisible Children the past two days in History class and it is a great film about kids in Africa who are being abducted and turned into soldiers. Check out their website www.InvisibleChildren.com for ways to help and for a way to buy the DVD. I reccommend the DVD, it is a great documentary (Done by three cocky college kids [they light a snake on fire while in Africa {if you wanted a refrence to their strangeness} ] It's not a boring documentary at all, I was so captivated by it) and the movie is really just fabulous. Check it out!

I pray that the Lord leads you to where He needs you, you never know, maybe by leaving your school you might help save non-Christians in a new school while learning Japansese! =) I know he will help you out, and I know he will continue to keep your friend close in mind, giving her reminders that He is always there and reaching for her hand, all she has to do is reach out and grab it.
