My Friend (*Jess*>name changed for privacy), age 15, in 10th grade, and, a good friend and christian! but, what people don't know is that she's got drianking issues! when she's out with friends she can't say no because, of having guilty feelings about saying no! I gave the idea to read romans 8:5-9 (? i think ? ), and she did! but she doesn't think God could for give her! i prayed with her and told her that in Jesus all things are possible and that if she asks it will be gladly given and if she knocks the door will be happly opend,and that God sent Jesus to forgive us and that because of this we are forgiven and God won't tell anyone what is happening in her life so she could talk to him! she just looked at me and said, "it's easyier said then done!"! maybee it is I don't know but could you guys pray with our Youth Group in hopes that God will give her the courage to just say "NO" !!!!

In Jesus name,

Liz!

Liz, at age 15 especially for girls being popular and liked by everyone is a very BIG issue. unfortunatly for your friend she is mocking God, the Bible clearly states that strong drink is a mockery. That being said I really don't think quoting scripture is going to get you to far. Try some common sense reasoning like, Date Rape, Drugs getting into her drinks without her knowing about it, not to mention her reputation. Guys like to party with girls that drink but they usually do not date them because they know how drinking girls are. I will pray for her to grasp what you are telling her, but I honestly think that straight talk with her would be better than any thing else.

hey liz

you should let the lord take care of her and if she really belives that
the lord loves her she wont have to worry after her time is up. and if she stays away from people that drink she wont have a problem like that.
