If i could i would actually say no, but this is a no negotiating thing. My cousin because i am in town, she wants to take me to the bar. I have just turned 18 and the lowest age that you can legally drink is 18...So because i am in town she wants to take me to the bar. I am worried about this. I don't know what i should do or what to do when i get there. I am so worried about everything. There are so many different emotions flooding my mind that i can't even begin to list my emotions. If somebody can help me PLEASE!!!

Stay firm Jennie, trust the Lord completely, and He will provide a way out. Pour your heart out before HIM. I praise the Lord that this is something you are not interested in doing. My daugher is 20 and came to know the Lord at a very young age. Here in the U.S. the legal age for drinking is 21. When my daughter turns 21, she's planning on going out with her "Christian" youth director to a martini bar. I can't tell you how much it breaks my nad my husband's heart.
1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
Psalms 71:1-4 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion. Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me. Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress. Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
I am praying for you Jennie,
Love, Servant's Heart

Hi Jenn
Just had a look at your picture, you look good on the horse. A pleasant pastoral setting too.......
Glad to hear you have accepted Jesus as your Saviour. That thrills me, even though we have never met. That was an important decision you made, and a decision that will mould your life and lead you into paths of pleasantness and peace. I do believe this as a servant of Jesus.
Those that want to have a drink, generally are folks who think the bottle has something to offer.
As a Christian you are drinking from the fountain head, not a bottle. Amen?

Greetings sister,
You are your own and a daughter of GOD. Will you listen to an imperfect sinner (your cousin) or obey a righteous GOD? Will you remember the pain that Christ went through on Calvary or disregard and go to the bar, possibly get drunk and any "mishaps" from drunkedness.
You have every freedom to say no. Its your freedom, your choice.
If your cousin does not like that, have nothing to do with her.
Romans 12:16
Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
Ephesians 5:6-8
6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Therefore do not be partakers with them.
Walk in Light
8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light

wow! thanks so much guys. your prayers and your answers are so blessed and i can feel the light and the Holy Spirit in each of the responses. I did go out but i did not get totally wasted and when i told my cousin that i wanted to stop, she was a little more willing to let me stop than i thought. I mean, at first she insisted that i keep drinking but i didn't. I had this one and it was really gross so i stopped. She asked me if i wanted something else and i said NO. she looked at me as if i was joking but i wasn't. Before i left too i said a prayer too for help and guidance. Thank you once again for all your prayers.
God Bless
