I am a Tree because…

I grow in my faith every day and I get to know God more in every day that I live. Trees also grow every day not in faith but in hight, width, and strength. And my faith is strong like a tree and it is hard to break or mess with. My knowledge in him is like a tree leaves, plentiful but could always need more. And I faec new challenges in my faith every day just as a tree has new weather and thing to deal with every day.

 

My roots grow deeper in everything just like a tree does. It grows in my faith and my knowledge of God. It also strengthens me physically by just going through day to day things, like a tree withstands wind and storms. They stablize me when times get hard  just like it keeps the tree from falling down. And they are very hard to get out just like its hard to rip up my faith.

 

I give out life and happiness just like a tree gives out oxygen from its leaves. And I also have good times in my life just as some trees grow flowers. I have times that are really hard and it’s hard for me to go through them just as trees drop leaves. But I also get through those problems that I am going through just as the leaves grow back every year.

 

Because I have a strong foundation and a strong base. Just like a tree’s trunk is strong and stable. I also have  a fun personality that people like and that a lot of people enjoy. Like tree’s have different shapes, sizes and colors. I also get cracks in my life that grow back and that other people help to repair. Just like a tree’s bark grows back if somebody takes it off.

Theme Verse

 

 

They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.

 

 

Last year we went to a leadership camp, and we learned how to be a leader and how to worship better. We also chose the theme for the year which is “Shout Silently – Actions that Speak”. I can use this theme as an 8th grader and in the world.

 

 

To me being a 8th grader means be a leader and be more mature, socialize with others especially younger kids. Pick up some trash that is out in the hall even though it is not yours, and do not just throw your trash on the floor. You could learn some names of kids so if you see them out in the hall you can talk to them not just walk past.

 

To me being a good christian leader means being a good listener and a good speaker, because you can’t be a good leader without listening to other people thoughts and to portray them to the actions that you do. Kind of like our theme “Actions that Speak”. And to me it means help others not just think about what you need.

 

I can use these things as an 8th grader and in the world. I think that we should use all of these things that I listed on a day to day bases. Because it helps you be a better christian and a better leader, and everybody appreciates it when your a good leader.
