So I don't really know what I want to write here.
School is starting for me on Wednesday and I want to really spend this year being a real witness to my faith. In my school we openly get taught from the Bible and even have a Christian head-master and yet all of this is taken for granted. It's easy to just blend in with the norm and not take a stand but this year I want to be different.
I also need to get my quiet times in check. I just can't seem to get into a routine in the morning before school in which I open my bible and pray. My later attempts have all failed miserably after about 3 days. So I would really appreciate it if people told me what they did and what was their routine, as a means of hopefully helping me get into one.
A friend of mine has also recently just fallen away over the summer and I really need to be there for her and show her how not all Christians are hypocrites and that some actually do care. She has started to drink and has said she is just 'sick of Christianity'. If you can, please pray for her.
My own friends issue has not yet been resolved, but I'm leaving it in God's hands. Since my last post I have been left out of things at least 3 times, I don't know if they do this purposefully but it still hurts. But I also am really grateful for the friends who have listened to me when i was sad [William], encouraged me when I needed it and were just there for me [Kerri]. Love yous guys.
The picture is of me and my older sister Hannah. We are complete losers. I love it.
Hopefully a more suitable and worthwhile blog will follow this, and not just a lot of ramblings.
OK.
Over and Out.
Jewels.

It looks like you two are close though! Thats so cute! I start school today.... :-/
As for quiet times...sometimes during the school year I have them before I go to bed just because mornings are so hectic.
Sigh....I think of summer and I think of summer spent in Kilkeel and I really really really really wish that I was there...
We're close and we're alike but we don't share faith, so that's kinda upsetting.
Yeah i've tried to allow myself time in the morning, but i always seem to fail. At the moment I am doing it at night.
This summer has been on of the best by far, it's not every summer that you get to spend a few weeks with some amazing Christian people from across the world who are just so full of the love of the Lord that it really rubs off on you. I really really wish you were here aswell.
You and your sis are darl'n! I'll be praying for you as your "work out your faith" this year. hugs!
Thank you Amanda! love you and will be praying for you too! :)
