about

The name is Emily and I am 15 years young.I am a green eyed brown haired outgoing freak, hah. I love music, it is my life =]. Bands to be specific, any and all, can't wait for Warped Tour this summer. I play sports volleyball, tennis, and I row. I love shopping. I don't follow trends just because they are trends, I wear what I like. I am obsessed with Urban Outfitters, American Apparel, and Hot Topic. I love shoes, they are pretty famazing. School isn't really to much of a drag I enjoy the challenge, all honors classes anyone? I love to give advice, helping others is a great feeling. I am 15, I make mistakes and don't know everything, but I am learning. I am mature and a great listener. I think advice should be listened to and reflected upon until you add your own input on what the person told you and not just followed blindly. So ask away!

advice

This question is for Christians, please.

I consider myself a Christian. I pray and whenever I do, I feel a sense of joy and I feel like I'm talking to the best person ever. But I always sin and I hate myself for it. Everyday, I judge people and I am vein and I get angry.

Whenever I do my hair or put on makeup, I feel like I'm being vein and I feel ugly in God's eyes. I also judge EVERYONE. Like, if I pass by an overweight person, I instantly think "That person is fat". This also makes me feel ugly to Him. I also gossip, lie..I do basically every sin except kill, steal, commit adultery, and worship idols. I repent though.

All of this sin that I do makes me feel like God won't accept me into Heaven when I die. I know that Jesus forgives us when we repent, but I sin so much that it seems like he would never let someone so sinful into his kingdom. When I ask to be forgiven, I always think "You've asked God to forgive you for doing that sin a million times. He won't give you another chance"

What do you suggest I do?

I am a Roman Catholic and i believe that God loves everyone, Christians, Jews, and Athiasts. He loves everyone, and i agree it is really hard not to do the things like gossip and lie and small sins like that. I have to say that you do good by praying and having strong faith, if you repent and feel sorry for your sins and your truly sorry God always forgives you, you just have to try not to do those things. I think you shouldn't worry about getting into heaven, you are young and you have a lifetime to change your ways, however you do good by repenting i say don't worry because God will forgive you if your sorry. Also he loves everyone even murderers, he doesn't think your ugly if you wear makeup or make a mistake, he gave his only son so you could go to heaven, he loves you. Also if you feel really bad go to confession.
