Lord, I lift Christina up to you right now. You never promised things would be easy, and it can be so hard when they're not - when everything isn't going well and it's hard for us to see how you're in control of everything and with the busyness it becomes hard to draw ourselves close to you - to allow you to draw us close to you. I pray that you would give her strength, first and foremost. She needs it in so many areas right now - physical strength as she is struggling with illness and pain, emotional strength as she feels she is drifting from the closeness she held so dear with her friends, mental strength as the load of schoolwork increases, and, most of all, spritual strength as she longs so much to be close to you. Help her find the time to meet with you, it is the most important thing we can do and ironically we end up neglecting it without wanting to so many times because so many day-to-day things really weigh us down, I know it happens to me so often. Just give her a window of time when her mind is a ease and she can speak

hey Christina...to be honest, i feel the same way...only because of different reasons...i guess lil things tend to make us feel overwhelmed, but look at the bright side: evrything u r doing now is good for ur future. being sick is just a little obstacle that God will help u get rid of. evrything else (as stressful as it may be) has a purpose. evrything u r doing, in other words, is for ur own good, andi'm proud of u ;) i'll keep u in my prayers. luv ya, and i hope u feel better soon <3

Christina,
That's really cool that you have a crush ...how cute. You're a beautiful person inside and out and I hope everything goes well for you.
Christina ...your post about being sick and sad and feeling away from God and being busy and all, it helped me. I have felt so discouraged today and have felt like I am pouring myself out and everything I do is for the youth because I love you all and I'm just really feeling low and i'm trying so hard to keep up with God but it's hard. It's so comforting to see you feeling low and yet you still turn to God. It gives me hope to see that in you. When I read the lyrics to Jesus Draw Me Close ...I just started crying because I feel so empty right now ...but God will take care of me and I want to thank you because you allowed Him to use you to minister to me in a time where I am really struggling and feeling discouraged. Reading your posts encouraged me a bit. Thanks, friend. I love you in the Lord.
