Seth

Okay so theres this boy named Seth. I have had a burden for him since the moment I layed my eyes on him. I have prayed for this boy more times than I can count. Most of my troubles started in the summer.

Seth and I had started to become really good friends. We were hanging out all the time and getting to know each other really well. Well one day he calls me up and asks if I want to go shopping, and seriously, what was I gonna say? No?? I think not. So we go to Fayetteville and we are having a pretty good time until we get to about the 3rd store. It was Hot Topic. Which, if you know me, is not a store that I regularly go into. Well we were in there for about 30 mins when I started to get REALLY bored. And we were looking at the same stuff over and over again so I was like seriously lets go.

So we come to the next store which is Pac Sun. Same story. Well finally we come to Spencers. Once again, not a store I frequently enter. Well we were seriously in there for like 45 mins before I was like.."okay Seth, seriously, can we leave this store? We've been in here forever!" and he got really upset with me and started yelling saying that I didn't care about him blah blah blah. I was like okay whatever just hurry up. Well by this point I was really starting to get annoyed. Thats when I started to notice workers were following us around and I really started to freak out. I was like "Seth, they are starting to follow us around." This really bothered him, he was all like "Don't you ** trust me, blah blah" cursing at me. I was just like "whatever, if you want me I will be sitting outside." Well I waited and he never showed, so I went back in and they had him in the back for shopplifting. I was livid!! I was like you have GOT to be kidding me!! After I have befriended him, he goes and does this to me?! Seriously.

Then he has the nerve to try and commit suicide that night. Of all the selfish things. To take your own life. That is the most selfish act someone can make. NOTHING in your life is ever bad enough for you to take your life. I'm sorry but its true. Even in my darkest of days, I would never have done it. I would cut myself, but I would never ever try to kill myself.

But anyway long story short. He hasn't improved. He is sitting in jail right now. I am just so angry with him!! He has the nicest parents that you could have. He just screws them over again and again.

My prayer for him is that the Lord takes a hold of him and shakes him so badly that he will only know that it was the Lord who did it. Just for the Lord to lead him in the right direction. To appreciate his parents and what they do for him. And most of all that if he isnt saved, that the Lord would open his heart. Make him know that he isnt saved and make him repent of his sins.
Through God and God only can a person truely make a life change. This is what I pray for Seth.
