Also your blog helped me understand some things, so thanks! <br /><br />But your right, everything does happen for a reason. God knows how you would react to certain circumstances, so he gives you them in accordance to his plan, and your decisions lead you to where God always wanted you to be! :) [and from there of course he'll pursue your love, because he loves you dearly]Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05626308004824554092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294281072339288332.post-11418630355680048552008-11-30T21:40:00.000-05:002008-11-30T21:40:00.000-05:00Hi, my name is also Lauren, and I am 13 years old....Hi, my name is also Lauren, and I am 13 years old. I go to a public school. I use that to be a light in dark places. I have made friends, that would never do those kinds of thing, but I am sure that there are some people who would. Nice blog!

He doesn't do it so much anymore, fortunately. Now, the worst that I'll get from any of my friends at school is a punch in the shoulder. It's sort of the friendship signal at my school - you punch friends in the shoulder, and other people anywhere else (if you are actually mad at them. Punching friends is done with a light attitude). <BR/><BR/>We have that same God/man story hanging in our house, only a different version. I like it. <BR/><BR/>:)Ian(:Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14289566223624035599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294281072339288332.post-83692793023785632992008-03-06T15:56:00.000-05:002008-03-06T15:56:00.000-05:00Wow, Lauren!

I LOVE that line!<BR/><BR/>TO be honest, I was TOTALLY SHOCKED to hear what some people actually DO in public school!!! I mean, what you said totally astounded me! I can't believe people treat other people that way!<BR/>I have been home-schooled since 2nd grade so I never really got to know what some public schools are like, but I have heard some things from my public-school friend in texas. Some public high-schools are just awful! <BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing your story. I'm so glad for you that you were able to transfer, and are doing better now. Don't EVER EVER EVER doubt God's love for you! Romans 5:8 says that even while we were sinners and didn't know He existed, didn't care, or maybe outright opposed Him, He loved us, so much that Jesus came to die a horrible death for us. God loves us, and we are SO unworthy!<BR/>It is incredible!<BR/><BR/>God Bless!<BR/>~KailiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
