Cause of Bullying?

When we think about bullying, whether we think about when we were bullied ourselves, someone we know being bullied or even just what the whole concept is, we often try to dissect "why". Why me? Or why him? Why her? Yet no matter how many times we ask, there's never a clear answer why a person is targeted or bullied. During this Christmas season I'd like to present a new idea for everyone to think about. Jesus is the center of Christmas and I won't apologize for blatantly saying so. Through my study of the bible and especially thinking and learning during the Christmas season, I have run across a fact I find very interesting... Throughout the bible It is made very clear that Jesus was harshly treated, out-casted, and ridiculed. In more modern terms, he was bullied. As we study these accounts we may wonder why, he never sinned or did anything of wrong or unlawful nature, so why was he targeted? There was no reason and that's exactly the point. Those who strive to do good, those who strive to be lawful and morally correct are often the ones targeted. This isn't a new trend, it started thousands of years ago with the only man to never commit a single sin... If you encounter bullying as I hope and pray you never do, or someone you know encounters it, remember you are not alone. Jesus knows everything you feel, even down to being bullied, and take comfort in the fact you either do or can serve a God who is always on your side no matter what your going through, who has been where you are and knows what it's like, and who was born in poverty only to rise up and become a leader, an example, and father to all. This Christmas season, know your not alone and also know that if you have been bullied there is nothing wrong with you! Your perfect just the way you are!

Life Boat

  There have been several topics on my mind and heart the last week. So I pray right now that God present them here the way he wants them written and understood. One topic I'm sure I've touched on before is uncertainty, however I feel it is more relevant now than possibly ever. In this world the only certainty we havw perhaps is uncertainty, key words here; this world. As I've mulled this topic over in my mind a couple things have become clear: -uncertainty forces growth of faith. -community and relationships are of utmost importance.  -In an uncertain world and constantly uncertain times, we as humans need Jesus, our rock and savior more then ever before.  -Lastly (for now) we need to be building our boats to withstand rough waters every day even as the water is still so that when the inevitable tsunami hits, the storm of life won't wash us away. This analogy sums up most of the main points, together with those whom we are building relationships, we should be building...

Today I really want to bring the focus back to what I truly believe is worth fighting against. Bullying is becoming more prominent all across our state and country. All we hear about however is the same speech of how bullying is bad and hardly any solutions to stop it. Today I'd like to take a different approach.. Do you have a success story of bullying? Have you been bullied? Or do you know someone who's been bullied and wants to share the story of how they rose above and overcame it? The biggest satisfaction is given to a bully when they see that they have inflicted pain or hardship.. lets work together and show bullies, show the world that we have come out strong. Lets take away the satisfaction given to bullies.    If you or someone you know has a story that you would like featured on this blog as well as "My Journey to Miss Teen International" blog, simply email me @kaylagirl0501@gmail.com All stories will be posted anonymously for the sake of privacy.

Be-You-Tiful

Hey Ladies<3 This post is specifically for all my ladies out there, we often hear the word "beautiful" in many ways. Its often used when we see someone we find prettier than ourselves in our eyes. We feel like we don't measure up because we aren't the "perfect or ideal" weight, or maybe we aren't using the super expensive makeup that someone else is. People in general are self conscious but we as woman get the brunt of it. We constantly try to be the "ideal" for someone else, its like a constant battle to be someones idea of beautiful. So much so that we forget to focus on our own idea of beautiful. We wear uncomfortable cloths, go on massive diets, and try to learn the impossible eye liner tutorials so that we feel like we measure up. We get so caught up in the worlds idea of beauty that we loose track of what we think is beautiful and what is spiritually beautiful. Some think that beauty comes from how much you spend on your appearance ,b...
