Being a Christian

Jesus is a big piece of my life, even though I sometimes do not act like it. I pray before I go to sleep every night. When you are constantly surrounded by people who act as if they don’t have a religion it is very hard to act like you have a religion. For example Sally a 13 year old girl has friends who do not speak of God but she is a strong Christian. She feels uncomfortable discussing anything with her friends because she knows that they won’t listen. Being a Christian is more than just going to church every Sunday and bible study every single Wednesday. It is about how you apply God to your everyday life. It is hard when you’re young because you love to listen to music and there are many more distractions. Jesus helps us when times are tough. It may not feel like it but it takes time. God gave us free will to do what we want. And how we use it is up to us.
If I could change anything I wouldn’t have mistakes that I made in the past. Psalm 91 tells us that for he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways. So that right there shows me how Jesus loves us. Faith is the key to having a religion. And I say this because in order to practice the things according to your religion you have to strongly believe in it. I strongly believe in God because of the things that he has done for me. When I pray most of things I ask for they happen because I believe that God is always there for us and I out all my trust in him. In the middle of confustion or in the middle of trouble it’s always best to trust God.
I have learned that if you’re not following Jesus then you’re not going the right way at all.
