Salvation and my story

A friend told me today that she doesn't feel like she is saved. That hit the big one. I was so hurt. I wasn't mad, but I hurt for her. She's one of those people that you would never think isn't saved. Then I thought about it, its very easy to be saved but feel like your not. I know I did for awhile. I'm so glad that I know what I know now so I can help her. Everyone tells me that my story is proof of salvation, I tend to disagree but I am willing to do anything for this girl because I love her so incredibly much.
Here's my story:
I was born into a torn home. My parents divorced before I was 2 and my dad remarried shortly after my 3rd. My "real"mother rarely calls, and I feel like mostly she doesn't care about me. She told me when I was little that my daddy, my knight and shinning armour, didn't love me. It broke my heart and I, being only 3, believed her. For many, many years I believed her. My childhood is something I try to block out, for many reasons, but mainly because it wasn't the best one. I moved my 6th grade year to Magnolia and attended BBJH. All of my friends were druggies and goths and freaks(my fav ppl!!). I came to RCS my 7th grade year...that was a very rebellious year for me. Everyone tells me now that I was... umm... independant and I was and still am. 8th grade was the year of stupid mistakes and LOTS of heartache. This followed me into highschool. 9th grade was literally hell on earth! Now tenth grade. yeah won't go there. wow...so much has happened to me and I've been through so much. But you know what? Shanna made a really good point last night. Satan cannot tempt any of us without God's ok. Did you know that? God has to give His approval for Satan to even touch our lives. God allows Satan to give us trials so that he can sift out the bad in our life. That means God and ALL of Heaven is behind us when we go through a trial. That is the story of my life - Trials. God started his work out on me from the very beginning of my life; before I waseven born.
Anyway I love you, gurl! Talk to me, call me, whatever...I'll be there!!!
