Valentine's Day, By Mikayla T.


Valentine's Day

By Mikayla T.

Most people celebrate Valentine's day, don't they? People such as us kids give out treats or Valentine's to our classrooms. Valentine's Day is a day when you show your love to one another.

In 1 Corinthians 13, God talks about love. Here are some verses from 1 Corinthians 13. Verse 4 says: "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud." Also, verse 8 says: "Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away."

Well, God is love; He shows His love to you everyday. So Valentine's Day is everyday for God. Don't just show love on Valentine's Day - show it everyday. It could be simple, like telling someone you love them, or that you appreciate them, or showing kindness, even loving your enemies. It`s hard to show your love to your enemies but....God always shows His love to you and He never gives up! I know it's hard to do all of this, but you can work on it bit by bit.

Being Left Out, By Mikayla T.


Being Left Out

By Mikayla T.

Being left out of the crowd isn't a BIG deal. I say that because what you want to have or do is not always good. These days, young girls and boys are dating each other, or doing bad things, but you feel left out! Having a boyfriend at such a young age is wrong, because you can get your heart broken so easily, and nobody wants that. Also, if your friends or people at school are doing things that they aren't supposed to do, and you follow, you're probably going to get into trouble! God wants you to always do the right thing, but you get tempted into doing the wrong thing. It's almost like referring to the narrow path and the wide path, because in Matthew 7:13-14 it says,

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."

So when it says "and only a few find the small gate," you want to be one of those people, don't you?

Life isn't always easy but if you stick to the right path God wants you take you'll find easier and easier each step you make! So don't feel left out of the crowd, because, as my mom says, "you're not missing anything."
