KNOW IT!
God doesn't want you burdened with worry. He wants you to love life and experience the joy he offers. Do you realize that every time you worry about something, you're robbing yourself of God's joy?
Worry is different than concern. It's okay to be concerned- even burdened- about your non-Christian friends, your grandmother who's in the hospital, of the fact your dad was recently laid off from his job. But to worry obsessively about things you have no control over goes against God's best for you. Worry keeps you from experiencing God's joy.

READ IT!
Proverbs 3:6
Matthew 6:25-34 *
Matthew 10:19-20
Philippians 4:6-7

PRAY IT!
Thank God that he's concerned about everything that concerns you, and ask his forgiveness for forgetting that and worrying. Trust him so you can experience his joy and peace.

Welcome back!

Hey everybody, I know it has been quite awhile since I have posted anything on my blog, and for that I am sorry! As you may have noticed, I've updated my blog by making it a lot prettier! Summer has flown by sooo fast and only one month before school starts back up again! I've been keeping really busy this summer with vacations, summer camp, weddings, church, and of course friends!
Summer camp this year was a blast!!!! If anybody was looking for a great camp, (Word of Life Island in Schroon Lake, NY) is a fantastic christian camp with so many activities for boys and girls ages 12-18! This summer's theme was "The Last Stronghold" -a military-based theme with lots of competitive fun and games! Anybody ever play slip 'n' slide kickball?? <-- Probably one of the most fun games I have ever played with a large (super large!) amount of people... Aside from all the great fun you have, WOL has awesome counselors and cabins, and most importantly a great center -which would be of course God.. :)
Hope everyone is having a great summer!!!
