Harry Potter was a blast! (to read book review, click the link to my Xanga below)
I am feeling really crappy. I was so psyched about the Student Life
camp... and I came back with an awesome attitude, and I got a book from
my teacher on 1Peter. But now, I am... well... the "spark" is
flickering greatly. I need moral support... I need to go back to the
fourth day of camp and keep on crying. I couldn't stop then, because
God is so awesome... but now it seems as if I'm reverting back to my
old ways... I'm becoming depressed because I can't be happy, and
because I'm again sticking God on the back-burner. Why can't I keep
that feeling of pure joy any longer than two-four days? I am crying on
the inside now... I can't cry on the outside anymore... I've done it so
much it's becoming meaningless. I want to know how God can love me
soooooooooo much, but I can't seem to accept myself? I am so depressed
about that right now. I need to be held...

read the book "be happy, dammit". it made me smile.
Any hype for anything ends or fades away eventually. You may not be all psyched about God but you can still keep your whole "God is soooo awesome" thing going. Just don't forget all the stuff you learned or the way you felt, keep going to church&doing whatever you do to keep you connected. I don't know any teenager that accepts themself whether if they are completely religious or not religious at all. I think self acceptance comes slowly, but I think it comes easier if you believe that other people accept you. I know a lot of people accept you and you know God accepts you, so eventually you'll accept yourself.
