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 the rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had it’s foundation on the rock.

Last May our 8th grade went to Camp Rodger and picked out our  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

As a 8th grader in ZCS, this verse means that i need to show the school that God is in control. It also means that we need to show the younger kids that God loves them and he will always protect them. The verse also means that as long as I show people that I love God and put his words into practice others will know that God has control of my life and they will want to give God control of their life also.

As a christian, this verse means that my life is built on God’s foundation. It also means that God has control of my life. God made me who I am and I need to trust in him in order to not screw up my life. It also means that I can trust in God and he will keep me on the strait and narrow.

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 This verse is pretty much saying that I need to trust in God and know that he will love me and protect me. I think that I need to show people that God is in control of my life.
