I was wondering if you would be able to share about the place school should have in the life of a set apart girl. Since I have been seeking to know God better, I have been struggling more with my schoolwork – it seems to have little value and purpose, and it sometimes feels like a waste of time. What should I do?
Q&A: Boredom
I’ve been struggling with boredom recently and I don’t quite know how to handle it. I want to be content, enjoy every day and accept it as a blessing. How am I supposed to handle boredom?
Q&A: Disappointed Dreams
I’ve seemed to continually face setbacks as I’ve pursued my dream career and just recently had to let go of my dreams entirely. Why would God allow this to happen?
Q&A: Changing Friendships
My best friends have started to make choices that I am not comfortable with. How do I go about loving them and standing up for what I believe in without coming off as judging them or thinking I am “better” than them?
Q&A: Shyness
I am a shy person, which is something I am trying to overcome. This shyness sometimes makes it hard for me to be friendly and to properly love people. Can you give me some practical, day-to-day tips on how to overcome this?
Q&A: Worship
My pastor told us that we need to worship God with our lives all the time, instead of just living from one experience where we feel very close to God to the next … my question to you is how. How do I live in complete worship to God every day? How do I worship Him in everything I do?
Q&A: Prayer
My walk with God is faltering right now, especially in the prayer department. I need something to help get my prayer life going again, so I thought about trying to keep a prayer journal. I just have no clue how. How do you do that?
Q&A: Waiting on God’s Timing
There is a godly young man who appears to be pursuing me. He has not yet said anything outright about a relationship, but I would be naive to not think that he is likely interested in more than friendship. It seems like my job right now is to wait on God and allow him to take the next step. How can I make Jesus the center of this situation and not end up spending a lot of energy that I could put toward Jesus and other things?
Q&A: Insecure About My Appearance
I’ve been struggling with feeling ugly physically. Because of it, I’ve made makeup an idol in my life and am so self-conscious about the way I look. I have been called ugly by guys and even some family members. When I look in the mirror, I don’t see someone who is beautiful or feminine. This struggle is affecting my relationship with the Lord, and I don’t know how to stop being so obsessed and insecure about the way I look.
