God’s Prepartion

One of the thing that I think God is prapring for is working hard in whatever I do because my parents are very hard working in whatever they do. My dad started his company with his brother. They started out in a little shed with a college student. They would work 12 hours (or if not more) 6 days a week. Him and his brother would get mad at the end of the day because people ripped them off but they still did it anyway. After couple of years other business that needed work for concrete they realized that they are did good work and doing it pretty fast and workimg hard. And now they have 40 employes and they are one of the best cocrerte places in this area. I learn from those stories he has told me. He would say even if you don’t what you are doing anyway with hard work. So I beieve I can honor God with hard work. One of the gifts and ablites is sports. If I work hard in sports and do well I can honor God through that. So thats what I think God is praping me for. And its not just my Dad,Mom and my uncle that just works hard. My whole Gebben family works really hard and that teaches me to work hard at what I do. In the Bible it says honor his body which is mine and do everthing 110%.

The prymaid tower

So what well is that we work together and didn’t argue. Also some of the tower stayed up. This is what didn’t went well is that we broke spagatti stcks and tape which we hit the buget. My favorite part was making the tower with my group and we didn’t blame anybody. My least favorite was when the egg fall when he shook it. Screen Shot 2016-02-22 at 11.36.38 AM

Math project

Reflecction:

In our project we made a probelm that says Bob is a catcher and he wanted to work on his skills. Bob, Billy, and Frank went to the baseball field. To work on his skills. Before they wanted to know the distance to throw to from home plate to second base so they can make the perfect throw. They used the Pythagorean theorem to figure it out. The distance of B to home plate to 3rd plate is 10 and the distance of A to  3rd plate to 2nd plate is 10 also. What would be the distance of C to throw to home plate to 2nd base?

The awser is for this c= 14.14. I like this project because It help me to work together and to understand this lesson how to do it. And to write a question on my own. Also to sovle it and make it on a project. To other suggtions and opions. This project was fun because we where able to draw and other cool things also.

I learned in De la salle that you need good leadership. Also Football you need your” brother” back..

De la salle the coach created a family with the team mates. They won 151 games in a row which is a record in any sports. But the head coach’s goal was not winning games. But it was a little part of his goal. When they lost in 1991 in the state championship game and they lost. A group of friends/teammates/brothers said we need to start working harder and passing on the leadership so the younger guys.

I learned in this scene you can talk to others. So a high school football player for there team got murdered and he was picking up his cousin. The guy best friend lost his mom, dad, and know his friend. He was asking his coach for some advice. His coach said family isn’t just blood related, you got 60 teammates. The coach spoke at his funeral he got 4 standing ovations.   

I’ve learned in this scene to not take stuff for granted. The coach for De La salle had a heart attack. He said it was one of the best thing that ever happened to him. He said it made him think about life and live life like it’s your last day. When he got the test if he could coach next season or not. And they said it was like miracle he could coach next season. Yes he did smoke.

This next scene I learned to beat the odds. De La salle was playing Poly. Poly had 18 D1 college commits on there team. There offense/defense line weight average was 285 vs de la salle 250. It was 90 degrees there. 105 on the turf. Everybody thought Poly would win. At the half was 17-14 poly. There is A.C. in the home locker rooms not the visitors. And somehow De La salle won.

I really liked that book I would recommend to anybody.

In this book there’s a lot of life lessons.

Cycle

The rocks cantian phosuphures and goes inro the groound when it wethers. feces cantian phosphures. Plant tussis cantain phuphures also. The phusuphures in the soil help bulid rock sediments. And plants to help grow them. Soil get lost when it rains.

Descriptitve writing

Blake Gebben september 10

The globe reminds me of when I went to chicago. When we first arrived in chicago we couldn’t find our hotel the struggle was real. We went to two cubs vs tigers game at wrigley field. The tigers were up 5-1 after the 2nd inning. Then the rain came. We left because we thought the game was going to be canceled but it didn’t. Then we went to dinner. I got a burger with a fried egg, barbucci, and instead of a bun it was a donut it was amazing.

 

I did america because of 4th of July. So I went to my cousin Ethan’s house. We golfed and it came down to the last hole. We both had good 1st shot. He made his putt and I needed to make my putt I left it short. Then we went to his house and a chocolate chip cookie it was amazing. Then we watched the fireworks.

 

I did the anchor because I went on my boat. So we got a boat finally because I’ve been asking for one. So we went wakesurfing and I got up I tried with no rope I couldn’t. After like the millionth time I finally got. We went tubing on lake michigan it was very bumpy. There was like this 100 foot wave came. I almost died. But I didn’t.

theme writing

Matthew 7: 24-25

24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.

 

Our theme this year, “Built on the Rock”, means a lot to me as both an 8th grader at ZCS and as a Christian in the world.  At 7th grade camp we pick out the theme. The reason we pick this because of our new addition.

I think it means our school needs to be built on the rock. God’s foundation is built on the rock so need to pass on the leadership to the younger kids. We also need to be examples to the younger kids because if we act good they will if won’t they won’t. We need to honor God in whatever we do. Even if it’s sports or school homework and we need good attitude. We need have a attitude like Jesus.

 

About what it means to you as a Christian (in the WORLD). We need to be disciples of God and tell people about God. We need to 100% on everything because that’s what God wants and that’s a why to honor him.  We can have our actions speak louder than our words. If somebody is sitting in there chair and has smile that’s a great example. If somebody is sitting in there chair that looks grumpy that’s a bad example. We need to count our blessing because we have it so good other people don’t don’t.

If we act like a good example and be a disciple of God this world will be a be better place.

africa

he changed that I usally think that are draked skinned but there not. there different cultres. Some of the best golfers are from south africa. That gave me a way different prospective on africa. I’m glad we did it.

Amazonies

I think the  Amazons. The reason I like this is because they help the community. For example, They try to keep the forest as clean as possible and thats a big deal. Which me on the other hand I don’t keep things clean so does other people (: They hunt and fish to provided food.

The negative about the others is the loggers. They cut down trees that the forest needs. And 25% of the air in the world is taken away because of the air.  They are using the forest to cut down the forest and which isn’t good. And if we weren’t here the loggers would cut down the whole forest and I hope they can argee to something. That will be a win,win sition for both of them.

Thats why I choose Amasonies.
