I'm Sara, I'm 14 and a freshman. I live, eat, and sleep cheerleading, I'm on the varsity football and basketball squad at my school. I also am in FFA and Student Council, and just about everything I can sign up for. I love my best friend Carrie to pieces, she's awesome. I am good at answering questions about guys, God, and girlfights...and anything else you can throw my way, I'll try my best!

hey...well within the last year i have become christian. but lately i have been having my doubts. i have depression, and have had it for about 2 years now. i pray so much but i dont seem to be making any progress to becoming happier. i dont understand why my prayers arent getting answered. (link)
Hi!! Maybe your prayers are getting answered, just not the way you want them too...I know that sounds weird, but God knows what he's doing (that has been SO hard for me to learn, I'm still working on it...). Let me share some lyrics with you (believe it or not, they're from a country song...Unanswered Prayers by Garth Brooks)

"Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers"

Keep praying, don't give up...things will get better...Your faith is getting tested, stay strong!!

hope I helped yah!



Ok...I have had this feeling that I am missing something. And I know what it is. God. I want him in my life. I Just dont know how to do it. I have to admit that the thought of someone loving you unconditionally is a little scary. I know that this is what I want and need in my life, but I'm so scared to ask to be saved. Can anyone help me?

Hey! You're right...getting saved is pretty scary, but it's good that you've figured out what you're missing and am wanting to have God in your life...And like they said, pray that prayer ((and mean it!)), and you'll be saved...pretty easy, huh? Try to find yourself a good youth group to get involved with, ask around your school to see where your friends go...

Welcome to the family! ( :-) )
