1. Jesus is always there for you.
2. Follow Jesus!
3. Jesus knows even when you do not understand!
4. Don't rush into anything. Get all of the facts you'll be thankful for it later.
5. Listen to your older sister. Chances are she's been there before.

16. Oh be careful little ________ what you see, hear, go, think, trust, and sometimes even... smell.
17. Do not live for yourself! ...ever...got it...I really mean it!
