God has blessed our days!
I have been in a class full of hypocrites (God forgive me). For five years I have had to study in the same classroom as these people. They made my life miserable each time I walked into the classroom. It was a torment everyday. I cried. The evil was just unbelievable. The hatred they had in their hearts was an abomination! What did I ever do to them to deserve this kind of treatment? Can't just one person be themselves? I felt so hostile against my own classmates, all of them. This was back in 7th and 8th grade. I was so sick of it I was going insane! I would tell my mother, "I don't care if it's a girl anymore, I'm sick of this constant abuse and the next time it happens I don't care if I punch one of those girls", yes, it was THAT bad. The class to me was like a clown circus. Truly SICK. I seeked God when I was half way in eight grade. One of my worst Jr. High years. I started to notice the wonderful things God gave me. I was very very focused to God. God answered my prayers and luckily little by little my classmates were being kicked out of the class. They either moved to US, moved to another group, failed, moved to another school etc. TO THIS DAY, only 3 of them remain. They all have had respect for me since we started 10th grade, thank God. I still didn't want to be a part of them in any way. They are people who talk behind your back, (which I honestly don't care and it's better for me because I don't have to hear them talk talk talk), they would do what it takes to get on top. They are corrupted and unloyal overall untrustworthy. Well, about last week I forgave all of them for everything they've done. It's the way to go. Today God has done a miracle! I saw the most beautiful thing today. Our whole group including those who practically tortured me, all came together and settled our differences. A few of my friends (females) cried so much because they all realized how disperse our relationship as a group has developed. They all came to their senses. We are all bonding. This is a miracle. Everybody shared what they had to say an no fights occurred. Almost ending, I took my turn to speak and they were all happy to hear from me. I told them God has blessed us. I have never seen a group come close like this. This is something beautiful and this is what God likes to see. Brotherly love. I got to my point and forgave all of them, specially the three classmates that knew what they put me through. They all fell to their feet. They cried. They felt guilty. They were sorry. I forgave them. I forgave them a long time ago. In God's eyes I have forgiven them since we started 11th. Well, it's a miracle. I've honestly persevered since 7th grade being tormented by them until 9th hit. I didn't speak to any of them. I just had my own friends in other groups. I've endured, cried, kicked and screamed in anger. I did not fight. I did not engage. It did not happen. Thank God! Now God has rewarded me personally! I saw them crying and it put a smile on my face because I knew they felt guilty and I forgave them. God has put love in us all and I pray this continues. Thank you God! |

God bless you! Continue to pray for them. Satan detests seeing things like this, and he will try to creep in and destroy it. Encourage them with scripture, constantly remind them of God's love, and proclaim like John the Baptist, "Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world!" That is a way to sort of stir them up in a similar fashion to the way Paul reminded Timothy of the great things God has done. Reminding them of God's love will help them to persevere through temptation the same way you did. Read Acts chapter 2 and see what I mean.
You might want to get some study going with these folks as well. Of course you'll have to devote time to studying yourself, too. |

Yeah!
Thanks for all the tips! Unfortunately the day after they had a disagreement and tore up again no!! I'm neutral. I'm not affected. I still speak to 3 people in my class about God. Specially a girl named Zoe. Something tells me she can be better for God and herself. It's just her surroundings that tempt her to do wrong. It's kind of sad though. There is a guy named Esequiel in our class and he's a christian. I don't mean to criticize, but Esequiel isn't doing very well in terms of at least trying to be holy or pure. He laughs at people that look weird to him. That's no good. There is a guy that believes in sorcery. Witch crafts and things alike. There is a guy who thinks there is no God. He believes God is like Santa Clause (God forgive him). And you only believe in Him when you are small, but when you grow up he's not there. It's a fictional character. WRONG! There are allot of classmates to seem to not be at all focused of God. Of course this is through my human eye, God only knows how focused they actually are. Most like to talk trash. Some don't have respect for teachers.... It just goes on and on... Well guys, like I've told God; I will have God's faith in my heart no matter what the situation. With His love I will persevere! |

^^ thats so awesome!! Truly, how wonderful God is!!
true your friends may all be so messed up, but you being there is a blessing in itself. you could have been placed there to influence THEM!! God may have placed you there so you can be a blessing to them. show them what being a true friend is really about. Give to them the love, grace, compassion, forgiveness, humulity and gentleness that God has placed inside of you. things that they probably dont even believe exist..... all the best |

Guys, if I took the time to write down everything God has done for me and the miracles I have seen in my life, I don't know how much words I could cover!!!
Praise the Lord! |
