"Its not about rules, it's about living like Jesus"

It's not about not wanting to follow a list of rules, it's more so the fact that very many of us make excuses to why we can't live like Jesus.. Don't drink, don't go to clubs, don't watch this or don't listen to that are not to stop us from having fun or to ruin our lives, but to help us remember that we should be striving DAILY to live a life pleasing to God, that glorifies God not our FLESH. Romans 12:1-2   I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Is what you're doing the will of God? Is it good in His eyes? Is it acceptable and perfect in His eyes? WHAT WOULD JESUS DO? How can you minister to an alcoholic when you are drinking with them

For all the "Good girls"

I'm a good girl, BUT I'm not perfect. However growing up this is the what I've been called, and I've learned to accept that I am different from a lot of other girls well young women now. Not to sound like I'm better than anyone but I was definitely raised differently than most, and from a young girl I was taught to carry myself a certain way, act, think, and walk a certain way. My parents invested a lot of time in teaching me the ways in which I should go, the things I should and should't do, the friends I shouldn't or should have. They helped mold me into the woman I am today.  I don't have a long list of things I've done that will have people look at me like I'm crazy, but I do have A list just like everyone else!! Often times I feel like I'm not "out there" enough to have a testimony for encourage people, help them, but whoever said your testimony had to be this big dramatic tell it all, crazy filled story anyways? I believe
