I just wanted to give a little encouragement to anyone looking here who feels a little down. In the summer, I went to the sea with my junior high youth group from church, learning a lot about God and having a great time. On the last night we were there, we had communion outside by the beach, and it was breathtakingly awesome to see the stars in their full glory. I just sat there in the sand, looking up and trying to comprehend that God existed throughout every inch of the sky, through all the universe. Then I realized how insignificant I was compared to His glory. Without Him I couldn't even exist! I felt the sand in my hands. Without Him I would not be able to feel it at all! I was such a sinner! I started crying when I realized just how great His mercy was, and how He loved me so much to send His son down to earth to be killed on a cross, despite how sinful I was! And God loves everyone that way! Whoever you are who is reading this, know that there is an eternity in Heaven in delight that you can enjoy if you just accept His love and follow His commandments! I pray that anybody who is not a Christian who reads this will give their heart to Jesus. God bless you!

I can't wait to do it again. This sort of thing brings you closer to God.

Yeah, that's amazing. I find it hard to communicate verbally a lot of the time, but I know in my heart God knows exactly what my thoughts are  |
