Friends? Church? Both....?

Teens these days are like the story of the fisherman who walked on water. Once he lost sight of Jesus, he sank. After Peter walked on water and saw strong winds he was afraid, looked away, and started to sink. Jesus said, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?” If you trust him with all you have, yes even you can walk on water. I see most teens in my school that claim to be Christians but have almost to no characteristics of how we are supposed to act. “Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.”  Philippians 2: 4-5 they sink. Even I have moments when Jesus slips from my mind. Satan tempts us in many ways like wanting to hang out with our friends instead of go to church. I believe you should bring them with you, if they don’t come then you know that their heart isn’t truly with God. Don’t stop trying though, but don’t push them to where they don’t want to be your friend. You will find a happy medium soon enough. Ask for Gods help and he will surely give you the answers.
