Hey Teen Team!'m a 15 year old Jesus freak and I'm here to host Teen Thursday.
I'm back again with a brand new " Hot Topic", questions, funny video clip and a poll.
I know we will have a good time.
Let's get to know Jesus better. You and me.

Verse of the Week: Jeremiah 29:13 "If you look for Me in earnest, you will find Me when you seek Me.
THIS WEEKS "HOT TOPIC"
Jason just started his senior year of high school. Since he was eight, he was sure he wanted to study biology - until he actually took biology, that is, and found he had to do dissections with one hand on the knife and the other holding his nose.
Besides that discouraging experience, Jason keeps hearing about the poor job outlook for biologists and the high educational requirements to succeed in the field. When his older sister lands a high-paying computer job straight out of technical school, Jason thinks about bypassing college all together. And on top of every thing else, Jason wonders what God thinks of any of his plans for his life.
Jason faces some of the same choices you might face soon. And he is asking the biggest question about his future:
Where does God want me to head in life?
"How can I know God's will?" is a question Christian leaders often hear from students. Some talk about it. Others worry about it. Some even lose sleep over it. These students burst with sincere, serious questions about God's will.
Why is God's will such a big deal for people your age? Because you face the three most important decisions of your life:
#1 You're deciding who will guide your life - your Master. If you've trusted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and intend to live your life according to His word, you're heading in the right direction.
#2 You're deciding if you will marry and whom you will marry - your mate. A marriage decision is doubly difficult because it takes two to tie the knot. You both have to see God's will the same way.
#3 You're deciding what you will do with your life - your mission - and what preparation you need to accomplish your goals.
God loves you and has a great plan for your life. Jeremiah 29:11 declares, "'for I know the plans I have for you, ' says the Lord. 'They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.'"
God also promises, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you" (Psalm 32:8, NIV).
Even if you aren't yet wallowing in confusion about God's will, you can plan on facing some questions about how to spend your life. You can also plan that God will be with you to figure out the answers.

SO LET'S CHAT!
What kind of plans does God have for your life?
Have you ever told God you want to do His will before you even know what it is?
Now would be a great time to do that!

Verse of the Week: Genesis 1:26 "Then God said, 'Let us make people in Our image, to be like Ourselves.'"
THIS WEEK'S "HOT TOPIC":
Image is supposedly everything. So what's self-image? Your self- image is the mental picture you have of yourself. It started being formed the moment you were born, and by the time you were 5 or 6 the person you think you are was so locked into your brain that you madly resist efforts to change it. That doesn't mean you CAN'T change it. Lots of people have moved from a negative to a positive self-image - or from a positive to a negative self-image. The point is this: Once you get a fix on who you think you are, you don't change easily. And since your self-image impacts every responsibility and relationship you have, it's crucial to acquire a health self-image NOW.
If you have a negative self-image, you don't think highly of yourself. Your often pessimistic, lacking in confidence, extremely sensitive to the opinions of others, self-conscious about how you look or perform, constantly wondering what people think of you, clingy in relationships, unsure of how to receive another's love, looking for possessions to make you happy, and speaking negatively about yourself or others. That is not a happy way to be.
A healthy self-image is seeing yourself as God sees you- no more, no less. If you have a healthy self-image, you DO think of yourself - but that's because God thinks highly of you. You accept the reality that God created you in His own image as someone with infinite value and worth.

When you see who you are in Jesus Christ, nothing can every change that. You gain a positive and a healthy view of your self. And you can get ready for God to do things through you. Why? Research shows that people act in ways that fit the mental picture they have of themselves. If you see yourself as a failure, you will act like a failure. You'll also find it hard to believe God wants the best for you.
A healthy self-image bulks you up with the strength to meet not only your own needs but also other's needs. It empowers you to be the kind of friend and Christian God calls you to be.
