Through my eyes...


Being Christian….
A new school year has brought many new challenges. 6th grade is a whole new ball game. Switching classes, 5 different teachers, new curriculum….its all different! But luckily, I have all the classes with my friends and that’s all I could ask for.
One obstacle I had to get past was that I had to make new friends. At school, I am a very open person. I try to be open about my religion also, talking about God in certain classes if I can. That lets people know that I am a Christian. I sometimes get made fun of for being so open about it. Those guys, yes, are my friends, but they just don’t get it. Many of you have seen on Facebook that my friend, Summer, is Greek. She is very, very proud of that. But, she doesn’t believe in God. She told me her mom was a Christian, but stopped believing when her mom got married to her dad, who is from the island of Crete in Greece. My goal this school year is to show her how much I care about her by showing her the love of Jesus. Starting with Facebook. I want her to choose to love God. And I am going to help, in any way I can.

Through my eyes……….People should love God no matter what country they are from!
