(O BTW i used 2 go 2 him 2 make me feel better.. like 1 of those kinds of frends u can complain at and they'll cheer u up w/ their peppyness! lol) soo about 3 months after we became frends i find out that he's a witch. like he gave blood, did all these spells and curses and all these tests 2 become 1. so i started 2 pray 4 him and i got reli reli weak 4 about 5-7 days and my mom asked me if i was ok... so i tld her about my frend nick and she sed "no wonder ure so sick like this! ure not strong enough 2 pray 4 this kid by ureself." soo me and my mom prayed 4 him. then my mom told my cell leader and he yelled at me and told me that i cant tlk 2 him. soo i got reli upset and he made sure that i got the message into my head that im not aloud 2 tlk 2 him. sooo i didnt.. when he wud tlk 2 me i wud say hi and make up an excuse 2 have 2 ignore him or leave sumwhere... he used 2 also like 2 tese me about my cross and he wud draw upside down crosses on the board or the wicca sign or sumthin like give me a note sayin i hate jesus or sumthin like that.. u get my point... soo skool ended and i had cried bout him sumtimes wantin 2 pray 4 him by my self but i didnt. and i wud complain at my cell leader and say "wat am i supposed 2 do?! watch him burn in hell?!" he told me "NOO! i never told u that.. just trust in God that God's got him.) soo after that i was good. i thought about him a lot over the summer feelin upset but then i just reminden myself, "God's got him, God's got him" i went bak 2 skool 2 days ago and i saw nick sittin aat my lunch table and he says hi!!! so i say hi!! gettin excited, but soon remeberin i cant tlk 2 him. so i took a few mins. and just looked him, i noticed there was sumthin dioff. bout him. i looked at him and noticed that he wasnt dressed all in black. then i just figured its the 1st day, gotta look nice.. then i looked at him agen and i saw this HUGE bling cross around his neck!!! i cudnt believe it! i asked him "nick...wat r u wearin.. y r u wearin that.. r u...r u still a.." he says "o yeah! im christian now! im not a witch or a wiccan or anything!" wow! wow! wow! i almost started 2 cry! (i did l8er) and now plz pray 4 him.... he chose the right decision and i want him 2 stay strong. theres still ALOT he has 2 give up. he's still livin in sin but he's gettin there!!! WOWOWOWOWOW!!!

soo yeah......2day was soooo amazing! church was awesome! WOW! but this morning i went 2 the american church b/c my dad wasn't gonna let me go 2 New Canaan..... i was grounded..... soo i reli didn't wanna go cause i thought it wud hurt my chances of going 2 New Cannan... i even stayed up late last night and didnt sleep soo great either soo i cud tire myself out so i wudn't have 2 go.... well, it didnt werk... hmmm... so i complained that my ear was bothering me, which it was , thats y i have been havin trouble slepin l8ly, but.... nuthin... didnt werk either. soooo i just said "ok im gonna trust in God that He's gonna get me 2 elizabeth either way, and hey! if God wants me 2 hear the message their preachin 2day then ok, i'm gonna go!" soo i went and i was prayin and prayin 4 my ear and i even went up 2 the altar 4 the 1st time in that church and i wanted 2 get prayed over.... but no 1 reli saw me cause i was like the last 1 and there was a LOT of ppl getting prayed 4 and they were all in little groups and they were prayin 2gether... i wasnt frends w/ any of them who was up there sooo i was 2 shy 2 ask them if i cud come in their group... but o well! i prayed 4 myself by myself up there andi was wondering "y! Y isn't God healing me yet? wats goin on?" soo i thought "i'll just get sum1 2 pray 4 me l8er and i'll b ok! then when they pray 4 me i'm gonna b healed!" well i went bak 2 my seat and listened 2 the message, and the pastor was preaching about healing! and he was praeching about how jesus had 2 spit in this blind man's eyes and pray 4 him 2 times! not just 1ce! 2 times! soooo ok he said that sumtimes we want things 2 happen rite away! and God doesnt alwayz werk that way, u can not give up rite away. i alredi knew about this but now that God was telling me this, i reli learned it. soo i asked the youth pastor 2 pray 4 me and after that i started feeling better! and then i cud hear agen! woohoo! but i wud still stop and wait and shake my ear 2 hear agen, soo i kept on prayin. ok soo i actually got 2 go 2 church 2night! woohoo! God is faithful 2 my prayers! and it was sooo tremendouse! soo amazing! such a blessing! after the service was over, i asked my pastor 2 pray 4 my ear. he did, but when he put his hands on my ears, he put sooo much FORCE and it killed! i just grabed his hands, u kno cause its like just w/o thinkin, but after he began 2 pray, the pain went down. o i let go of my grip not 2 be as tight but still a little tight. but now i feel like God is slowly healing my ear...(o! BTW! i have swimmers ear! 4got 2 tell u wat was wrong w/ my ear! hehe! well swimmers ear is wen u get a lot of water in ure ears and it killls and ..yeah) but i hope i can sleep 2night... i'll keep praying about it, and PLZ! u pray 4 me 2!

hey y'all! i thought i should make another blog even though i just updated... i wanted 2 express how much God is blessing me! ok..its like this... my old youth pastor in MWC preached on a passage in the bible....( Acts 3) that was the 1st time that i atually wrote in my bible....lol! and then i heared that passage 4 about a week from other preachers. i told sarah and she told me ...hey mabey Gods trying to speak 2 u....sooooo i thought about it. after a while i stopped thinkin about it but it came bak into myh head a couple of times. Andre preahed on Acts 4 and that reminded me of Acts 3. then last week in cell sarah was preaching Acts 3! what do u know! and she mentioned..why would God repeat Himself?? 2 make a point right? so i figuered ...ok this isnt just a coincidence ...God reli is trying 2 tell me sumthin. soo sarah was preaching on the power of the name of Jesus...so i was having a lot of low selfesteme l8ly and i was thinking how can God use me? im not "special" enough for God 2 use me greatly.....so if u have faith in the name of Jesus u can do anything.... at 1st i didn't think that if i said it anything would happen but then i remembered that w/ faith God could use u for anything. so i tried it w/ faith this time and ever since almost all of my prayers have been answered and i know the rest of them will be answered 2 within time! my faith has been growing and i finally feel like its not that hard anymore!!! sooo happy! b4 when i prayed it was more like i was begging God than praying w/ faith. but now! man o man! i luv it! its soo great tlkin 2 God and ive never been happyier!!!! MY PROPHESY IS COMING CLOSER AND CLOSER TO HAPPENING EVERY DAY!!! JESUS I LUV U!
