Well when I was younger I guess I was gullible about little pranks (like spelling "icup") and naive also. Even though I didn't know God when I was younger and no one in my family are Christians, I believed that God still groomed me and everyone else in my family, they just haven't realized it. And I was really really shy when I was younger, I was the absolute opposite of my brother who was loud and talks to everyone. But God helped me through trails like going to new schools and stuff (I went to a different elementary school before Rosa Parks). And I think he also helped me realize that school is important because I did do a lot better as I progressed through elementary, and middle because I really understood why teachers give homework, and test, quizzes.
I think he helped me break out of my shell of shyness by taking me to Cameron House and becoming a Youth Leader. I really thought I wasn't going to get in because I turned it in on the day that it was due, I had cello lessons too and that was my first time missing one >< ,and the person who coordinates it was in a meeting too ><. Yeah I had to interrupt the meeting and I was so scared that I was pacing outside in their "social hall", you can ask Anna about that story she was with me. LOL. Yeah, I was just soo nervous, because I knew all those people were going to look at me. But yeah my shell slowly and gradually broke as the summer went on and I really had fun, I didn't want it to end, and most of the youth that I worked with were crying. Even though it was one summer of being the leader, I think that was the best experience for me to be a leader, and fun. I loved being the first 8th grade Solid Ground leader! woot! haha.

Thank you for sharing your story. It seems to definitely be a God thing, and exactly the kind of thing God does. I pray as you continue to walk with God you will include God in everything in your life. You will be amazed what God can do!
