    Default Hey yall!! (:

    Hey yall! My name is Jules, some of yall may remember me from a few years ago on Are They Ready For This. Anyways, I'm thirteen, and very interested in prophecy. As everyone else, I'm struggling. It's hard going from the girl who doesn't give a crap, to the girl who is letting Jesus live through her.

    My testimony aint anything special. I grew up in church, got baptised at age seven. Went through the motions, acted like I understood exactly what I was doing. I never counted the costs. My family said we were Christians, we went to church. We put money in the offering. We thought we had it figured out. Until my mom got pregnant. Then she fell, and was out on bedrest for six months! Since my stepdad worked out of town, I had to grow up quickly. My sweet little brother was born healthy, but my mom's injury didn't go away for years. She almost had her tail bone removed. It was a big wake up call. When I was eleven, I really meant it. I was saved by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, and baptised in the church. But still, I wanted that popularity. I wanted the friends. And if being the bad girl, having the Dont Care This Is My Life attitude would get me that, that is what I would do. My youth leader at church has opened my eyes this past year. I'm done with that. I'm going to let Jesus be in control!! I'm so blessed, and I don't want to be angry anymore. I believe we are in the end times, and I do not want anyone I come in contact with to be left behind!

    Thanks for reading a bit about how I came to know Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Looking forward to discussing prophecy, and learning about yalls testimony too!

    Welcome Jules! So glad to read your testimony. Many of us have had similar circumstances where we learned about and accepted Christ and then let the cares of this world take us away from growing in maturity in Christ. Thank the Lord that He is patient and understanding and most of all forgiving. God bless and again welcome!
    Eternal life is not a reward for effort. It is a gift to those who trust Jesus.

    Hi Jules, it's nice to have you here! You sound like such a mature young lady, and you are in the toughest times of your life right now with peer pressure at school; I'm happy to hear you have a great youth leader. Stay strong, and know Jesus is always walking with you!

    I'm forever grateful for how loving and forgiving God is. He knows I've never been perfect. And I have messed up so many things, and done so many horrible things whenever I strayed away here lately. But everyone is a sinner. And I know that. Jesus paid it all, and I'll never stop praising him for that!!

    And I actually hear that a lot.. Haha my momma says its like talking to an adult. Someone should tell my friends that, they think I'm crazy! Hahaha

    Thanks for the welcome you guys!! I'm so excited to be a part of this forum full of Christians all discussing the end times together!

    Hi Jules

    Your Mom and I have been friends on RR for many years and now we are friends on FB. You are truly Blessed to have Christian parents who love you so very much. And you can be such a good example for your little brother by teaching him about Jesus and you know how much he looks up to you.

    I know how interested in Prophecy you are but don't forget at your age when you have peer pressure you have so many loving and caring sisters and brothers here on RR who would be honored to help you as you walk with Jesus in this life. I know your Mom is always there for you but don't forget the wealth of experience so many of us on RR have had in our walk with Jesus.

    Welcome to RR

    Love ya little sister.

    Ann
    2Ti 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

    Too Blessed to be depressed!!!!

    Glad to know I'm not the only one! Haha!

    And thank you! School is very difficult, no one wants to act like a Christian. I will definitely be hitting up the forums for advice on peer pressure. Soon!(:

    Hey Jules... Welcome!

    I have to say, I really like being a Southern boy. I lived in Yankee country for a while. That was alright, but I was glad to get back home to NC. I say ya'll and ain't entirely on purpose, even tho it comes natural.

    I think it's most Christian teenagers biggest problem. I just keep reminding myself: Jesus suffered horribly for you. You can lose a couple friends, handle a couple rumors for Him. Never makes it go away, but it makes it easier for me to handle.

    And haha I bet! I always feel a little out of place up north. I'm the only one with an accent!!

    "Ain't" isn't a word...Y'all is proper grammer. Jules, you make me so happy, so proud to be your momma.

    Momma, Aint is to a word. I checked the dictionary! Hahaha My english teacher would scream if she knew I typed those words. We aren't allowed to say either in her classroom, so I assumed they were incorrect grammar. And Love you!!
