I often believe that I have been such a dapnspoiitment. But, know that when God sees me he sees Jesus. But, here is what I often think about. If God sees Jesus who died for all of our sins, what does Jesus see when he looks down on earth. I try so very hard to be a good person and when I try really hard, I fail. But, when I run to Jesus to say I am sorry, he holds out his arms takes me into a tight hug and tells me it is okay. Go try again but, let me help you. Each day is better than the day before.
Social Networking satisfies tegraeens need of imaginary audience where they think the world must know what is happening to them. There are tegraeens who constantly log onto facebook to update everything they are doing such as I am in class or I am hungry. They believe that people will read their status and maybe other people will respond or comment on their post. Social networking also provides a channel for sympathy because when you put up a pessimistic status message, many people will either click like on the post or comment on it, which generate more negative energy and the person might feel more need to update the sad stories about their lives. One thing parents and teachers should do is to acknowledge what these tegraeens are going through. We should provide comfort and positive sympathy toward these kids. They need to know that you care about them and God cares about them too. No matter who what where and what, God is always watching and ready to comfort us. I find that kids who have a strong relationship with parents and God are less likely to log on to these social networking websites because the people around them satisfy their need of attention.
Jerry and Melanie,Eric and I want to wish you well as you continue with the path that God has for you. Please keep us upadted with all of your adventures.Love ya,Eric and Tracie HunsbergerThe Warehouse ChurchMishawaka, Indiana
I think its beautiful. Someone left a cmnoemt saying not to take the money and to count on God to provide. But who has the mind of God to know that He didn’t do this. I know the pastor personally and he is a great guy and I couldnt be happier for him. And I trustthat God will guide them in exactly how to use the money
