MY ANSWER/ BILLY GRAHAM

DEAR REV. GRAHAM: I feel so isolated. I'm the only one in my family who's a Christian, and every weekend they all go out drinking while I stay at home watching television by myself. They just laugh at me when I try to talk to them about Jesus. I can't wait to move out, but I'm still in school so I don't have much choice right now. How should I deal with this? --B.T.

DEAR B.T.: The first thing I urge you to do is to begin each day with God's Word, and with prayer (read 2 Corinthians 9:8).

What should you pray for? First, make thanksgiving a regular part of your prayers. Thank God for Jesus Christ, and thank Him for saving you. Thank Him also that you aren't just part of an earthly family -- you are now part of the family of God, and you are His child forever.
