UPDATE: TEEN FOR THE LORD
Hello,
This is Emily's mom. I just want you all to know that Emily is fine. She has taken a very long break from writing. She's no longer a teen but a very busy college student. So, if you've been worried about her, no need. Thank you for reading Teen for the Lord. If she decides to pick up blogging again, we will post the new information on this blog, too.
God bless you all!

Pretty Thrifty: Missing Out
Hello Ladies,
Have you ever missed going someplace or doing something that you didn't want to miss? Do you remember how that felt? What did you do about it? Did you learn anything from it?
A few years ago I had to miss going to summer camp. I was really, really disappointed. I felt like I needed to go, that I needed to be rejuvenated. So I was pretty upset.
Well, God's got a good sense of humor, and He loves us far above what we can imagine ourselves. That week was the best week I had that summer. I was stirred up spiritually, calmed mentally, and joyful physically.
Sometimes God knows that we need to miss out on things in life because He has a far better plan for us. It can be simple things or it can be big things, but no matter the size it all comes down to this.
God loves each and every one of us so much that He wants to be involved in our everyday lives, guiding us step-by-step through every single moment of our day. So the next time you think you are missing out on something, look for what God might be doing for you or trying to teach you.
You are God's beloved child, and He wants what is best for you even if you don't particularly like how it's served up.
Keep your eyes on Him and nothing will be impossible to you.
Truly,
Teen for the Lord

Hello Ladies!
My name is Emily. I have been writing a blog called Teen for the Lord for about six years. I write faith based posts as well as Pretty Thrifty, my own little fashion show. Now, I am a cheapskate. The point of my Pretty Thrifty posts is to encourage you all and to show young women that you can be cute while being modest and cheap.
So I want to give you a little trivia about myself.
1. I am a avid musical fan!
2. My favorite musical is Calamity Jane.
3. I love to sing, dance, and act.
4. I am a freshman in college pursuing a Business Administration Associates Degree.
5. I love working with little kids and teens.
6. I have a cat named Tiger.
7. I am deathly afraid of sharks.
8. I used to be deathly afraid of moths.
9. I play guitar, piano, and box drum.
10. I love chocolate and peanut butter!
Jean Jacket: Gift

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everyone!
This year I want to start twelve new good habits and stop twelve bad habits.
What bad habit will I break first? Not blogging consistently.
First good habit to start? Charging my phone.
Emily
