Hi,,

[Jeordin]

Soooo, as you may know I'm Jeordin, of course. Alot of people don't know how to pronounce it. It's Jordyn. Well, that's how I like it spelled. My principal always says Jeerdin on the intercom and it drives me nuts.

I don't exactly think I'm a Messianic Jew elohel. I mean I don't really like putting myself under any denomination because my beliefs are diverse. I agrre with john in the fact that I'd rather talk about my beliefs online because, hey, you don't like 'em, I don't care. You don't go to school with me, I don't have to see you everyday after telling you my secrets.

Right now I've been a bit slack in the faithful department. I understand that's not really good. I've shaped up though since I went to church Wednesday. My main goal as a follower is to meditate and not stray while praying. I always do if it's more than a minute. I didn't this morning though while I was at the bus stop because I was by myself. I actually almost missed the bus elohel.


I'm not sure about anything and even if I don't reply to most post or threads it's because I'm reading and learning things I never learned as a child in church. Please be patient with me and don't be afraid to act like I'm slow. Please DO provide thorough explanations of everything if I ask a question elohel.

I can tell that you are studying a lot Jeordin. It's great that you are searching for truth and questioning everything. Few people ever bother to do that. Most seem to pretty much go through life having inherited most of their beliefs and opinions without ever really investigating them.

I understand that there are a lot of pressures and temptations and school. They are there throughout life in different ways. We have an opportunity though to be lights and not get drug down by the deceptions that have control over most of the world. You may feel like it's a struggle to keep your head above the water, but there are others that need you to stay strong for them.

Even if they don't say anything, people are looking for stability and for strength in others. Though they may never say it, many are looking for someone that has some answers and peace while chaos and dog eat dog seem to be the order of the day.

You and John are exceptional people. I know it isn't always easy, but stay the course. Not only for your own benefit and to avoid much pain and heartache, but like I said before, there are other people out there who really need help. You may be the only one that can help them, but you can't be of much help if you are compromised too.

Pick yourself up and stay focused. The more that you stay in prayer and in the Word the more equiped that you will be. You are making great progress and I am very proud of both You and John.

thank you, itiswritten

[Jeordin]

Awww, thank you. I'll try to take that humbly lol. But really thank you, once you listen to the words that come out of peoples mouth you sort of figure out "somethings not right here." I do the best I can and trust it's way better than it was when I wrote that. I have a way bigger desire to learn due to you and everyone here basically, people of G-d. Ha I had to add that it felt as if I was embracing the creations rather than the creator.

VERY VERY well said.

If I might add
I served as a truck stop chaplain for a few years in Denver, and I dealt not just with drivers, but also with the homeless and "less desireable" of society.

Hurting and lost people are seeking - they don't want religion, they want something that works and is REAL and AUTHENTIC.

They will lash out and attack as a means to "test" to see if one is TRULY concerned and compassionate.
They know how to spot a phony concern out of duty who looks down at them.

So John and Jeordin, you have an opportunity to make such a positive ETERNAL impact on a group of people that don't have any exposure to uncorrupted TRUTH.

And here's a clue I've learned:
It's not always about you.
i.e. When you are in a bad spot, someone may be observing to see what you have in that situation.
You may be going through something as a way to let someone else see HOW Messiah can be at work in someones life.

I know this can seem a big load for teens, whom themselves are seeking - but The POWER of The Set-Apart Spirit is ABLE - and the reward will match the challenge.

I wish I had someone in mylife when I was a teen who was walking in TRUTH rather than religion - the regretful things I wouldn't have done and gone through.

It should also be our place (adults here) to come along side you 2 in encouragement and prayer.
You ARE going to mess up, and we need to ensure tat the enemy doesn't use those times to take you down.

When you let the TRUE light of Messiah shine through you, people WILL be attacked.

Seek the seekers - love the rejectors and ridiculers.

Good times we are having Keith, don't we? lol. It looks as though we are pastoring Jeordin and some novices in faith - well, if the Lord wants - let it be. It'll be better if the younger generation listen and learn to preserve Word of God in their lives. More and more advices, more wisdom and more Word of God in matter 'Thus says the Lord in His Word' - let it be joined!
Shalom
