Getting started and staying strong....together

Welcome to the WYID blog spot! This is the place for girls in Huntington to stay connected after WYID. You can share your questions and your prayer requests here. You may need to start a blog in order to respond to the posts. It's really easy. Let me know if you need instructions.

After a weekend like we had, it's easy to find it difficult to go back to reality. I know you are back in school now and probably tempted to go back to the same old way of life but you are not the same.

Be strong.
Here is the first promise from God's word that I have to share with you today. We will start with something short and simple.

"I will be a Father to you and you will be my daughers," says the Lord Almighty. 2 Corinthians 6:18

The only step you have to take today is to believe this. YOU are God's daughter.
Stop
Pause
Think about that
Thank Him for what He has done for you.
He loves you!
If you got your very first Bible on Saturday, you may be having a hard time finding the scripture. Go to the Table of Contents at the front of the Bible and find 2 Corinthians. It's in the New Testament part of the book.

Remember how we spent some time in quiet at WYID so that you could pray to Him? Well, try that again by yourself! Do it every day before school if you can and ask Him to help you, to give you courage, and to feel His love.

I'm praying for you!
