Concept of the Sense of Self
They are asking: What are my personal values and beliefs? What are my goals? What are my ideas? Can I share them?
Ask: What they think about a current event? A big topic?
Build trust by listening, with no judgement, freedom to disagree, gentle guidance/boundaries
Dealing with comparison
Say: You are beautiful. But also You are strong. You are smart. You messed up. You are forgiven. You can figure this out. I’m happy to help. Tell me what you need.
Altogether Beautiful Friendship
Teach social skills: learning to listen, valuing conversation, asking questions, what demands a text, what is a snap chat, social media post, etc. what is public and private, humor v making fun,
Teach friendship skills: showing up when someone needs them, friendship is different than teamwork, friendship is different than similar interests, trust and confidentiality, listening to know, inviting and accepting invitation, encouragement

What do you think a good friend looks like?
What part does forgiveness play in friendship?
What part does accountability and boundaries play in friendship?
Where is Jesus the perfect friend when others fail us?
Altogether Beautiful Faith
Jesus in everything

Psalm 46:10-11
Let’s take a poll –
How many of you want to live your best life?
How many of you want to live a junky life, or even a so-so life?
What do people need for their best life? (Consider as a group or on your own.)
Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs
https://www.simplypsychology.org/maslow.html
We look at this list and can see some of our problems in the spaces on the pyramid
- Where are my friends? Do I have them?
- Worried about money for college or even food and our homes
- We might struggle with some sadness or depression
- What the heck am I here for? What should I do with my life?
- In down moments, we wonder if we’re really worthwhile, if we’re loved.
We start to feel anxious, certainly don’t feel like we’re living that best life.
Our #1 Need is...knowing God.
Knowing we have a real present God.
Our pyramid forgot its foundation.
Let’s find the foundation in Psalm 46:10-11:
“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
- 11 - The Lordof hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Here’s the thought I want you to remember today:
God has no needs. He just wants to know you.
And God is really our only need.
To get to the Stillness - less anxiety, feeling better, less overload and stress, and frustration, we need to Know God, walk this life with Jesus.
