And whatever you do, whether in word or deed do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Selfless
I had such a fun time at camp this week learning about God. I learned a lot about how to be a leader. We did some fun games, but also had some serious moments that were really good too. I like our theme because people think of themselves before others and we need to think of others first. I can apply this theme to my life as an 8th grader at Zeeland Christian and to my life in the community and in the world.
This year’s theme can apply to my life here at Zeeland Christian. When I was a seventh and sixth grader, I was scared of the eighth graders because they were so big and so much older. I want to change that for the sixth and seventh graders because that would be a good way of being selfless. I don’t just want to help the younger kids though. I want to be selfless to the teachers because they are being selfless because they help me learn. I can be selfless by helping a teacher with something after school if they need help. We don’t notice how much people like Mr. Meeuwsen do around the school. I could be selfless by picking up the commons after school. That would help him and also make our school look better. I can apply this theme to my life as an 8th grader at Zeeland Christian and to my life in the community and in the world.
This year’s theme also applies to my life outside of school. I need to not only help people inside, but outside of school as well. I could help someone carry their groceries out of the store. This would be selfless because then they would not have to do it by theirself and I would be helping them and I would be putting them before myself. I could also give a poorer person some food, because they don’t have the money to by it by theirself. I can apply this theme to my life as an 8th grader at Zeeland Christian and to my life in the community and in the world.
I can apply this theme to my life as an 8th grader at Zeeland Christian and to my life in the community and in the world. I could help people with something, give someone something, or clean up something that I didn’t do. This year, I hope that I can be more selfless.
