A Typical Teen Christian

A Typical Teen Christian 6

I got ready for school, and came a little early. I wanted to see if Mathew was there in detention. I didn’t know what to say or really do. He distracted me so much just by his looks, that I was for once caught of guard. I should ask him about himself, get to know him.

I came next to the door window, where I could see if there was anyone in detention before I go inside. No one was in there but one student. It was a student who looked like a normal average student. A student who was just there with their head tucked in their arms. Then I heard God speak to me, he wanted me to talk to the student and help them.

I walked inside the room and sat next to the student. The student was a girl, had a very nice since in style. She seemed as if she didn’t want to be bothered. But I had to talk to her.

“ Hi, my name is Jesselin!” I said.

The girl turned and looked at me. Her eyes were red like she was crying. She looked stressed and confused. Again she seemed as if she didn’t want me to mess with her.

“I’m Bri,” Bri said dull.

“ Are, you ok? You know I just met you and everything but you seem upset,” I told Bri.

“No, I’m not. All my friend have boyfriend and I don’t. I’m a stupid ugly, girl who got detention all because she wanted attention,” Bri said in a annoyed tone.

“Bri first of let me say you’re a very beautiful girl!? Everyone is unique, and beautiful in there own ways. God created you the way he planed. You should be thankful for your looks. Get rid of the insecurities, and go out there. Looks aren't everything, even though it seems like it, it's not. I prefer inner beauty rather than outer. You can be short, skinny, chunky, tall, etc. But you are never ugly. Don't ask or whine for good looks because God already gave them to you, you just have to accept your own body to where you feel good about yourself,” I continued.

“Thanks, I guess…,” Bri said kind of lost.

“No problem. And as far as you not having a boyfriend; Let me just say; always love God first. God is always more important. You are beautiful in your own ways so never regret not having a boyfriend yet. Having a boyfriend isn't everything, it basically changes you and distracts you from your surroundings. God has different plans in everyone’s life. I am proud to not have to worry about having a boyfriend like everyone else right now. It shows I can standout and make my own decisions and not follow what everyone else is doing. I know it's hard to watch everyone do there own things but with Christ you can to anything. God's love takes care of me and you. If he wanted me to have a boyfriend in my life he would simply place it. God is my best friend and that's simply all I need. But for now I thank Jesus that I don't have a boyfriend,” I told Bri.

“Thanks again but I never come to God or know much about him, but you helped me understand some things, ” Bri stated.

“Well Im glad, if you ever need me to tell you more about God hit me up!” I smiled.

Bri smiled and told me she would have a long conversation with God tonight, and left. I don’t think Bri should have left but maybe she had work detail. Mathew walked in, shocked. He must have not expected me to be there.

“Hey Jesselin, what are you doing here? You know you can get in trouble for being in here,” Mathew signed.

“Ha for what sneaking into detention? I don’t think so. I came to hang out with you!” I laughed.

“Wow, my sister must be wrong then when she said you would never hang with me,” Mathew smiled.

When I seen that smile I felt some type of special bond. Seeing that smile showed me an overwhelming happiness. That I should really get to know this attractive, silly, atheist. There we go, back on track. My main focus was to help convert the atheist to a relationship with God.
