Freedom & Decisions: A Bible Devotional, And A FREE GIVEAWAY!!

Freedom. What's the Definition of Freedom? What are a couple words that pop in your mind when you hear the word freedom. When I think of freedom, I think of choices or decisions. Freedom leads to choices. Also, freedom can lead to actions. And choices, and actions have one thing in common, they can result in consepuences, or rewards.

Now, turn to Matthew 26:1-35 and read it. It's about the passover, and Jesus says, "Once the rooster crows, you would have denied me 3 times." What Peter did was a very bad choice. Now, close your eyes. Imagine you're Peter. Jesus just told you, you would deny him. And you deny saying you'd never do that. What thoughts go through your mind when you think about that moment? Here's what I'm thinking.
  • Peter just denied him then, although that doesn't count for those three times, it's still denying the Lord.
  • Why didn't Peter just believe Jesus? Because, he's the Lord!
  • Did Peter even care what Jesus said to him, because he knew it wasn't true.
  • Did Peter remember, Jesus knows everything!
Those questions, can all be answered easily, but, it'd take time.

Real Life Matthew 26:1-35-

Bethany, your sister, just got home, and calls her friend. You just keep doing your homework. Then tommorow, she comes home, with a big, fat 0 on her homework pages. Your parents ask, "What happened Bethany? Last night at dinner, you said you finished your homework! But you obviously didn't!" then, Bethany replies "The Dumb Teacher mistook my homework for a stupid boy in my class named Dylan." Then your parents point to the delicately written name on the page. Bethany Victoria #17.

Give Bethany some advice, in your notebook!

Beautiful: A Devotional

I see girls wear a bunch of make-up Now, I know God wants us to stay our natural selves. He purposely made us this way! He purposely made me with golden hair, glasses, and always-chapped lips! Even if you don't like what you look like and try to change it, that's your loss! Because, the way we look is part of God's plan for us! Now, if we try to get blemish off our skin by using natural products to treat it, it's different!

Try to Find It! 


The next morning, take a shower, brush your hair, and teeth, and all that stuff! Just DO NOT apply make-up, or curl, or straighten your hair! Instead, put on,

  • chapstick instead of lipstick or lipgloss
  • add water to the tip of your eyelashes instead of mascara
  • put coconut cream or coconut oil on your face
  • put on a light-scented lotion, instead of putting on perfume

Now take a picture of what you look like with all natural stuff on.  Now, the day after that, put on your make-up. Now look in the mirror. Also, take the picture, you took the other day. Now ask the yourself the following questions.

Do I look better natural, or product coated?

Does God like me better natural, or product coated? Product Coated

What's better natural than product coated?

What should I look like when I go to church?

Most of the answers should've been natural, especially number 2. But, let's read on.

Nature's Best

We need our skin especially clean all the time. Because, our skin shows what we're like on the inside! If you wear a bunch of make-up it shows you don't appreciate what God gave you! If all you wear is natural stuff, that doesn't do any harm to your natural beauty, it shows you love what God gave you to show off to the world! Now, I'm not saying go brag to your friends, "Look! I have golden hair because God loved me more than, you, so he made me more beautiful!" Because, God made each of us equal, so don't think you're better than someone because you have the perfect skin tone. Now, take this small little quiz, and add up you're score in you're journal, then, write down your result number, and what it means.

Quiz-                                                                   Totally!    Maybe        No!

Do you love what God made you like?                  1                2                3

Do you wear make-up to look pretty?                   3                2                 1

Do people tell you, you look ugly, then
you ignore them, and stay your natural self?        1               2                  3


3-5 points- you are incredibly natural! You're pure! Congratulations! You passed this quiz! You got an A-B great job! Now, please go to 1 Timothy 4:1-5

6-7 points- you are kinda in the middle. You don't always wear make-up, and you're not always natural. But, you are in satisfactory mode. Which is great right now. Try to get a little higher though. But, at least you go a B- to a C- and not a D or an F!

8-9 points- you think the only way to be beautiful is to where tons, and tons, of make-up! But, let me tell ya something sister! You'll be beautiful no matter what! Oh! And you're grade, a D or an F! Sorry, would you like to retake the test later?

Now here are some bible verses/ passages I'd like you to look at, at least twice a week for two months.

Psalm 104:15
Matthew 26:6-13
Exodus 11-15
Mark 7:3-4
Exodus 34:29-30
Matthew 17:2
Isaiah 60:1

Now, in order to be as beautiful as can be, remember these!

  • Shower daily
  • Wash your face twice a day
  • Put on chapstick

Alright, that's the end of this post! If you liked it, please share this on facebook, or tweet it on twitter! Also, please follow or suscribe to this blog to here more! Thanks!
