Read Matthew 6:25-34
What things are you worried about? What causes you to worry about them? Sometimes that worry causes us to fear things and sometimes even prevents us from doing what God would want us to.
What things have you felt God asking you to do that you were just too afraid or worried to do? Maybe it was because you thought your friends might think you were weird. Maybe you were too scared to standout in front of other people. Maybe you were worried about what it meant that you'd have to give up or stop doing.
As we grow closer in our relationship with Christ we must strive to become more like Jesus. He showed us a true example of what to do. Jesus was I'm sure scared about what faced him when it came to him being sacrificed on the cross, however, He wanted to do His Father's will.
We are to do the same. To determine what that is we must make it a priority to seek FIRST His kingdom. We must seek after His will. God will reveal to us His will for our day to day living, each situation we face, even in the toughest of times, if we are seeking Him.
Take some time to speak to God about what His will is for you this week . . . for the situation your facing. . . for this summer. What is He saying to you? What is it that He's asking you to do or not do? Share that with us.

I worry about many things such as what i will eat and where i will go and sometimes very weird things which i cannot think of right now.
Sometimes i feel the spirit of God telling me to stand up for somebody or to tell somebody to be quiet because they are not speaking very wholesomely. Sometimes I do that and it makes me feel good and more stronger because i stood up for what i believed in. Other times i don't stand up for that person and i feel down and sad that i could of saved that person from maybe a bad day. I don't like it when i see somebody get picked on because the person behind the insult had intended it to be mean i can stand sarcasm but that kind is too much and sometimes sarcasm can be too much and sometimes i get caught up in sarcasm too.
I think God is trying to tell me to stand up for the weak. I need to show them that i am better than that. That i'm not somebody that tolerates when people hurt other people psychiologically and physicially. I think i need to stand up for them whatever the cost may be. But i need to remember who i am and keep cool and not get angry.
God has also placed on my heart that i need to be kinder to others all the time. I can be really sarcastic to other people at times and that can be just as bad as bullying and can be a form of bullying. It is something i have been working on and need to still work on to draw closer to God.
P.S. I was going to post something yesterday but i got on a couple of times and there was nothing so I didn't leave anything.
god is telling me to try harder dont be a regular person dont take the easy way out try to exceed at what you are doing
