Hope

In the painting, I think the people going through the sea gives us the most hope. I think that because God did that so His people could get through but not the other people. In my opinion, it has the most hope compared to the others. It gave the people hope. It did not give the people chasing them hope, as they died. It can give anyone hope to know that God can do anything. Knowing that God can do anything can also give hope.

Friday blog post

  1. What did you learn or think about the most this week from our theme “The Psalms teach us to sing praise to God.” Was there a phrase from a Psalm that stood out? What praise do you sing to God right now?                                                     I thought it was cool. I liked the pictures in the book that had to do with this week. Psalm 8 was my favorite passage from this week. I can sing to him songs. I can also sing to him about how good he is.                                                                                     
  2. Tell a story about a time that was difficult this week. What happened? Were there things that comforted you at all?                                                                                           Math was hard yesterday. It took me a while and I was getting a little frustrated at it. Also, all of the homework can be difficult. So it makes the day less fun. Nothing really comforted me with it.                                                                                       
  3.       Tell a story about something this week that you were proud of. What happened? Who was a part of making it happen?                                                             I finished homework. It was hard and I am glad I finished it. I worked through it and got it done. My mom helped me a little bit with math. Some friends helped with the Spanish.

 

Blog post #4

  1. Read one of the Psalms that we looked at this week. Psalm 34, 46 or 61. Read the whole Psalm Reflect on that Psalm by using any of these questions or by sharing your own thoughts.                                                                                                        Psalm 34 stuck out to me because of how it describes God. I notice how God saves everyone no matter who it is. I see an image of God helping out a homeless person by someone giving the homeless person money. When it says I sought out to God and he answered can give people comfort because God has control over corona. The Brooklyn tabernacle choir made a song out of psalm 34.
