I don’t really know how God is preparing me to do work for him, but I think one way is because I REALLY want my family to adopt but it is not on my mom’s heart to do so, but I believe that by making it so I want to adopt that someday, when I am older and probably married, I might end up adopting or at least fostering a child. God has also given me a bunch of abilities, that I believe I can use for his glory. Like my drawing, I don’t draw inappropriate things, or curse God in them. Softball, I can be Jesus in my teams, Little League is probably where I need the most to be like Jesus to my team, for they need help, and getting angry with them because they dropped the ball, I can encourage them that they will get it next time and cheer them on instead of groaning. Another way I think God is preparing me to do work for him is that I REALLY want to travel around the world, go to Britain, Rome, Greece, Australia and the Philippians are just a few places I want to go, and I believe God is building that want up as I grow, so when I am old enough to travel, I will be able to spread God’s word to the places that I go and be Jesus in some people’s lives. Other than what I have put down, I really do not know what God is using to prepare me to do his good deeds, I wish I knew fully and didn’t just take guesses, because to me, taking guesses is almost like guessing God’s work, and I don’t like doing that, but I also believe that God is building me with kindness towards others, like one of my friends is having struggles with her family, and I believe that God is pushing me to be kinder to her than I naturally would, but also still treat her like normal, for no one likes being sympathized for, at least I don’t.

I believe that it is important to study Christian Persecution for we need to know that some people are willing to give up their lives for Christ. We NEED to know what is going on out there! Christians are dying for what they love! I think we should know this stuff! If we don’t, then why are you a Christian if you don’t care enough to learn what others are doing for Christ! To me, it is important to study Christian Persecution because it inspires me that some people are willing to die for Christ, and I wish and hope that if I’m ever in a situation like that, that I won’t just run away and claim I don’t know Jesus so I won’t die. I want to be able to stand my ground and not give up on my faith.

Just my opinion

In Bible we talked about the differences of the early church and our ideal church. Ex, our ideal church would be comfy and safe, but the early church wasn’t comfy or safe.

I actually would rather have the early church now, rather than the ideal church. For ours is very self-centered and you don’t learn anything. I don’t like that.

That Jesus was just as much human as we are. He had the same feelings and thoughts, but he fought pain and hurt and sin better than we do. Even though he was God’s son he still felt like we do, he didn’t want to die, no one does, but Jesus did it so we could be forgiven. One question; Would you die for Jesus and others?

Over the weekend I saw God in the Lunar Elipse on Sunday. It was AMAZING, so big and me and my family watched the Earth’s shadow slowly cover the moon and turn it red. We didn’t stay up larte enough to watch the Lunar Eclipse end though, but even though we didn’t see that part of it, I must say, it was AWESOME.
