This world is full of distractions. Teachers, school, friends, family, YouTube, Instagram, grades, tests, and so much more that filled our everyday agenda. Lately I my seclude has been tight. Wake up at 6:00 go to school at 6:40. Finish school at 2:30 and walk to the drivers ed class. Come home at 5:30, get dinner, and study or do homework. Finally go to sleep. Yeah, pretty hectic. So, though all of this it can be hard hear God's voice. He is constantly speaking but we are so focused on our own lives and what is going on around us that we do not hear. Don't be upset, it just means that we need to put some time for God to speak. To listen to what He has to say. What I have been trying to do lately is when I wake up, walk to my mirror and say "Let this day be for you. Speak Lord I am listening". Amazingly, this helps me and helps focus my day on my Heavenly Father.
"Speak, for Your servant is listening." 1 Samuel 3:10

Have you ever looked in a mirror and you don’t look like everyone else in your class. It feels like everyone around you is the same. They all play the same sport, they all have their hair style, or even they all know the same jokes except you. This is hard for all kids. We want to be like everyone else. So people will push it until they are like everyone, but the style changes or the funny joke is not funny anymore. You worked so hard to be like everyone else you forgot that you are amazing and beautiful. The things that make you different is what makes you unique. Embrace your flaws. Your flaws make you perfectly imperfect just the way God made you. Don’t try to be like everyone else. It is a lot of hard work that makes you feel horrible. Be who you are, and soon everyone else will want what you have. So be yourself perfectly imperfect.
I have always wanted to go on a mission trip. Being able to be a light for my heavenly father. It would be amazing, but sadly not everyone can go to India, Canada, or Heidi. Well, did you know that you are in a mission field. Being a Christian in a world full of sin is not easy. It never has and I do not think it is going to get any easier. I do know that you and I can be a light for God. I am in public high school, an environment where being salt and light can be a struggle, but I am starting to realize that this is my mission field. A place where people do not accept or do not know Jesus. We can be a light by just talking about it once and a while, or listening to christian music and rock out on the bus. I know its not easy and being a light will make you a target. Say strong, put on your armor of the spirit, and step out onto the mission field. It is right outside your door.
