In the past few weeks our grade has been working on raising awareness of persecution in other countries. Some countries don’t have the same freedoms we have here in the U.S. I worked on the country of Indonesia with a few other girls and above is one of the posters we created.
We have been learning about the stoning of Stephen. Stephen was a man that taught God’s word to others. Stephen was seized and false witnesses said that he was a blasphemer. He was stoned to death. Before he died he gave up his spirit to the Lord and forgave those who were stoning him.
This last week in Bible we have talked about the last words and phrases that Jesus said before he died. The one that I am going to focus on is forgiveness. In the Bible Jesus says, “forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.” We interpreted this to mean that we need to forgive others even when they are not kind or loving towards you. We still need to love and care about them and forgive them. Whenever somebody does something against you forgive them right away because if you wait a long time you might hold a grudge against that person for a long time. We need to forgive and forget and lve a life filled with love and forgiveness.
