Checklist For Life

So when i was in 8th grade my friend kelly gave me this book for my birthday!

Its a checklist for life [Clearly you can read the cover]

But i LOVED this book & every now and then when im having a rough time ill read something from it.

The first chapter in the book is.. "Mirror, Mirror"

In 8th grade [and alot of times now] i had such a horrible time with mean girls saying stuff.

THis chapter made me help accept myself a little more.

At the end of the chapter it has a "Things To Remember" page.. with lots of bible verses having to do with self acceptance.

My favorite of this page was..

"The lord said to samuel, do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because i have refused him. For the lord does not see as mans sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the lord looks at the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7)

I just love how it really makes you feel better when you read this!
