Category: Exciting News!

Wednesday night was Awards Night.  I got a ribbon.  I earned it by saying my verse every Wednesday night, doing quiet time, extra credit, bringing my Bible and my notebook and by being there!  Mark got a gold medal because he is older.

The last Wednesday night of the year (school quarter) is Awards Night.  I got first place for first grade and first place for first and second grade (for this semester).   Mark earned a reward to (for this semester).

My favorite verse for this year is John 3:16.  For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotton son that whoever believes in him will have eternal life.

Last Thursday, I asked Jesus into my heart!  That means I am a child of God.  I asked him to take my sins away and I want to be like Jesus!  He will help me to obey.

Mark was gone and it was hard.  When Mark is gone I disobey Momma a lot.  I felt sad before I asked Jesus into my heart, I got into trouble.   Mark helps me to obey Momma.  Momma said that Jesus could help me to obey.  That if I asked Jesus into my heart, I could obey Momma a lot easier.  And that he would make my heart as white as the snow.

I  know Jesus was born as a baby in a stable.  Jesus is God’s son.  I know Jesus walked on water.  I know Jesus never sinned.  I know that Jesus died on the cross for my disobeying my parents and to wash my sins away.  I know Jesus rose again and is living in heaven.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him will have eternal life (up in heaven!)  John 3:16

Here is a verse to help me obey.  The Lord is faithful, he will strengthen you.  He will guard you from the evil one.  2 Thessalonians 3:3.

These are verses that I learned.
