Footprints
One night I dreamed a dream.
I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord. When the last scene of my life shot before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand. There was only one set of footprints. I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life. This always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma."Lord, You told me when I decided to follow You, You would walk and talk with me all the way. But I'm aware that during the most troublesome times of my life there is only one set of footprints. I just don't understand why, when I need You most, You leave me."He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever, during your trials and testings. When you saw only one set of footprints, It was then that I carried you."

Average isn't good enough!!!!

It is so easy to just sit back and watch people turn away from God and actually say they hate him. This never happened at covenant Classical, but now that I'm in public school I can see how much our schools need revival. It's not just the kids in these schools. It's the fact that our culture has made it impossible for teachers to even talk about God in school. We are called to tell other kids in our school about what they're missing. It is sad to think that some of the kids in my school have never even heard of Jesus. Sure, it's their choice whether they accept Jesus or not, but kids aren't even told about him. It's not too late for them. Maybe God has placed us in their lives to bring them into his love. This is where we are called to go out of our comfort zone and preach the love of  God. We are all God's children. Isn't it about time they knew?
