    I go to a public school and all my "friends" say they are Christian but they all worldly. I try to be that example for them to see Christ through me but it's hard when I can't talk to someone at school that truly has the same Faith as me.

      Alexandra Graham I was in the exact same place as you. I will be praying that God puts a great Christian friend in your life and that you will bring the worldly people at your school to God.

      I remember back in High school and middle school I had friends Who said they were Christian, but acted wrong .It was discouraging. Just be vigilant cuze even in a church there are also wordly "friends" I only have 1 friend whom we share the same faith ,but it's not the same as having a best friend. I then realized there's no such thing as "bestfriends" ,but only 'family' i pray to God that he gifts me a beautiful friendship where me and her could be as sisters not besties and share the same faith and give our all to God. Not just a "Christian" friend ,but a Sister for life ! Pray for that hun . A sister in Christ forever 💖 . It'll be one of the most beautiful things on earth .imagine having her when u graduate ,and her at ur side when you and your husband get married and her Being the aunty to your kids and vice versa ! Pray for a forever Sister in God ,God bless

      What are you talking about? Church is big big big BIGGGGGGGGGG that you can ever imagine. Stretch your arm, it is sooooooooooooooo BIG. You are the church. There is no ch ch without u. You want a boyfriend. Jesus is your boyfriend and the best boyfriend you can ever get. He is a teacher, He is a counsellor, He is your guide, He is everything you need.

    I'm so glad my sister and I are best friends (We're twins) but our two bestfriends friends (we're all a group) have everything a best friend should have except being a Christian😭 My sister and I talk about God's word but and been praying for them to be saved. Can you guys be able to pray for their salvation? That would just be wonderful to know there are others sisters in Christ that are praying for them.

    Hi, wow thank you! I'm 16 and have been through horrible "friendships" where I have been lied to and brought down by them. All I want is a nice Christian best friend. I've been praying about it but God knows when the right time will be to bring them into my life. Your friendship seems so nice and I have only recently found your channel but I'm so glad I did because you are a great person for me and other girls to look up to. I loved the prayer journal idea and praying for your future husband and your money saving video. Thank you for making this channel. I'll be looking forward to seeing more video.
    God bless.

    Thank you for making this video! I’ve been praying for a Christian friend to have in my school because right now a I don’t have any best best friend because there isn’t someone Christian in my school... I started becoming best friends with someone this year but I soon noticed that that person was leading me into the wrong path cause she wasn’t a Christian and I think that a best friend has such a big influence in a person’s life. I love your videos! They’re so helpful! 💜

    @angelicabulos 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is so true. It's important that your bestfriend is also of the same faith. When you get into something, a friend with not of the same faith can just give you a worldly advice. I also love that you mentioned that it is important that your bff should be a role model that has a good christian character. ❤

  • @janessabrokaw3902

I wish I could meet someone who could share my beliefs but where I'm from there aren't many teenagers who believe and worship the bible! I pray for it tho and I hope God will answer my prayers one day:)

    So, I'm starting this TH-cam channel where I want to talk about the bible and sort o teach what I'm learning to those who are willing to watch. It's also kind of a way that I can rant when all my other non-homeschool friends are busy or unavailable or just wanna talk and not listen. But some of the things that I'm having problems are the equipment, mainly, and what to talk about! I've wanted to talk about what I've learned but when that gets boring I want to do something new! How do I stay motivated?

    'You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.' James 4:4. How then can you say it's okay to be friends with people of different faiths?

    • @sexymonster7667
      @sexymonster7667 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Daniel Moss I guess you CAN be friends with people of different faith, but you guys won’t be able to share a really deep friendship, so I think it is better to find BEST friends from the same faith.

    • @AlyssaShalom
      @AlyssaShalom 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We aren't suppose to have them as our best friends. But in order to make an impact and move people closer to God..we do have to associate with non-believers. Be friendly towards them..love them. Because usually when people are comfortable with a person, it's easier for them to open up and actually listen to what the other person is saying. Versus a stranger coming up and trying to move them closer to God. It can cause and impact, but it could be one that is only temporary. Versus the impact that can happen when it's a friend reaching out. It has happened many times with people I can now call friends. My lifestyle choices and talk of how God has blessed me caused an impact in their life that wouldn't have been possible without us knowing each other and being comfortable enough to be transparent with each other.

    • @danielmoss7133
      @danielmoss7133 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Syd Black You make a fair point - however, If they make it clear that they want to carry on doing worldly things and find you talking about God 'annoying', then they should be left alone. Some people's hearts have hardened and are set in their beliefs

    • @AlyssaShalom
      @AlyssaShalom 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Daniel Moss I've never come across someone who has told me it's annoying. Because I don't push it or consistently talk about it. Because before I reclaimed God into my life..I disliked when people would constantly talk to me about God. So I have an understanding of that.
      I have this one friend who had 0 relationship with God. And I rarely talked with her about God. We probably had only 2 conversations. The 2nd conversation that we had recently. I told her that I know she's going through a lot and it seems as though everyday is the same with zero progress. But I pray for her every morning and night. And being that I'm looking from the outside in..I see a change slowly occuring.( I wasn't talking about a change as in having a belief in God). And she told me how she didn't believe anybody prayed for her outside of her family. So that coming from me, her friend, made her tear up and realize my love for her. Few weeks later, she called me and told me how she started to consistently pray to God for a week and all of these positive things started happening in her life. And that alone made my love for God grow. Because he's been manifesting my prayers in the people I associate with in them. No, they may not automatically accept Christ and they may never will..but they begin to look at things a different way. Because like I said usually , I don't even have to talk about God to them. I don't have to be verbal, they just see what I'm doing/how I'm living out my life and they get curious and begin asking questions.
      So my point is, there is a way you go about being friends with non believers in a way that you can influence them without them influencing you. And giving them a different outlook on life. Because how else are we suppose to move people towards God? We have to be an example. And people usually pay attention to the examples of people that they interact with. It doesn't have to be everyday. The girl I talked about we talk about once a month. But it's about being an influencer regardless of how much you are involved with someone. Leaving an impression of Christ without coming off annoying.
