The right thing

Sometimes doing the right thing hurts...a lot. Putting a lid on the way you feel about things is really hard. The way you feel doesn't go away...but it's learning to control your feelings and your decisions..it's about letting God have His way. Things have to be tested, and sometimes you need to put some things aside so that you can grow in God and get to where you need to be. It's hard to let God have His way because you don't know what will happen. You might not get your way, and we as humans don't like that. But you have to learn to trust His heart. God loves us SO much and if we let Him, He'll do what's best for us. Remember that all things work together for the good if you love God and live for Him and do what's right even when things aren't easy. Things might seem dark but light will come. You just have to prove to God that you're going to live for Him even if you have to give some things up. You have to show Him that you're going to do what He wants even if it hurts. But God WILL bring you through it all. He will bless you and give you the desires of your heart if you really live for Him and do what's right for the right reasons. Stay close to God in prayer and read His word. That's what's going to bring you through. It's the dark and trying times where we grow in Him. God help us to do what's right so that we come out of these dark times being what He wants us to be.

Stay close to God and listen to your elders, they're looking out for you and they pray for you.

You're right. But it's worth it. And by the way, how do you get those little music notes by your name? That's cool!
