sigh. huff. I can't wait to get to college. I hate high school popularity contests. it's retarded. and the way people have to make you feel bad about yourself so they can feel better is something I don't understand. if anyone has answers to this question please leave me a comment telling me!!
Hey. . .I'm sorry that people treated you badly. I think you are a very cool girl. I also want you to know something, that the sooner you put it into practice, you will be truly free indeed, and your relationship with God will grow exponentially. Without this you cannot succesfully live the Christian life. This is it. . .
What people think doesn't matter. I spent my first seventeen years worrying about what everybody thought of me and always giving in to people's wants, not being sold out for Jesus. It was not until I was miserable from my popularity andmy lack of integrity that I realized that it didn't really matter. So the next year, my eighteenth year, I decided to not care what anybody thought of me because people were fickle and their opinioins change with the wind. I obeyed God and did what he said, even if others didn't like it. I definitely was far from always obeying God, but compared to before it was a 5,000% improvement in my obedience and love for Him. Since then I have had more joy, more real friends, and have helped others know Jesus better. When you live to please Jesus and not to please others, it is like you step out of the popularity game and begin to do the will of God. Others see that and are inspired to do the same, or they dislike you for not paying them social homage. Either way though it is a good thing.
So Kelcey, be who you are in Christ! Don't let ANYONES opinion keep you from that, because Jesus wants you, your whole heart, not just part of it.
You are a woman of God! Continue becoming who you are!
All for Him,
Peter
