1 Timothy 4:12--Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

Worldly Attachment
What is your most favorite thing in the world? Is it your i-pod or your cell phone? We have so many things in America that other countries don't have. Many people from other countries think of us as spoiled people who would rather by steaks instead of donating food to the closest food drive. I would'nt blame them! I am not saying that everyone in Amercia is a spoiled brat, but there are some people out there that sure do act like one. If we could just forget about that new shirt or those super hot pants and think... "Do I really need these things or do I just want them to impress someone?" I mean there are children out there who only have one cloth around their waist, and they call that clothes. God did say that it is easier for a poor man to go to heaven that a rich man. Why? Because a poor man is thankful for every little thing he gets and some rich people complain because the steak is to tough! So do yourself a favor don't be like those snooty rich people everyone dislikes, be the person that has everyone as friends and is close to God.

Your right, Jackie, we should really evaluate our priorities and be thankful and be more generous. You girls are really putting things into perspective and I'm proud of you.
