Questions for Jeannie

Questions for Jeannie:
1. Do I have to fold my hands every time I talk to God?
2. Because I used the Ouija board, was interested in witchcraft, etc. before will it effect God’s decision for me? Would I be left behind? Even though God is the most important thing to me?
3. Should I fast?
4. I keep praying and I don’t get better. Does God want me better? If so, why?
5. Why fear God?

I’ve asked God, but I don’t think I’ve gotten an answer yet. Maybe I’ve got to figure this one out on my own. But even that would be with God, so never mind. Hey, I’m new at this.

The thing is that while I am moving forward in my relationship with God to where obsessed is an understatement my family and (most of) my friends are pushing away. The only ones who seem interested or at least not bothered by my Jesus talk are Michael, Nick and Gramma. Now it is God, through Jeannie, who turned my life around. Mom used to see Jeannie, how come she wasn’t turned around, too? She never talks about Jesus or God, she doesn’t pray or read the Bible or go to church. She won’t even take me to church. I also get the feeling that she doesn’t like going to the Family Christian store, which I love. Ginny is no better.

Jessie doesn’t pray, read the Bible or go to church, yet she says that she is a Christian. Her parents do too, and they are the same. [Note: This is a false statement. Tim and Laura have never professed to be Christians.] I asked her if she wanted to come to church with me and Gramma this Sunday and she said yes. I told her we were going at 8:00 AM. She still said yes. If I know Jessie, she won’t make it, but I’ll ask God to give me faith in her. She said she wanted to start going to First Plymouth because it was pretty. I’m sorry Lord, but I wanted to shake her. A pretty church is nice, Jessie, but don’t you hunger for unity of people and knowledge and worship of the Lord?! I’ll have to pray for tolerance of her as well.

I am getting better and better everyday at being a Christian and I thank God for it.
