Xmas

Everyone always asks what I want for Christmas because every kid always wants a Christmas gift for christmas.and most people think Christmas is always about getting gifts. It is not what I think Christmas is about is it is about Jesus. Jesus is our savior and loves us and died for us .you know on you birthday when you get all the nice gifts you like it a lot. So what Christmas is we us people on Christmas celebrate Jesus’ birthday. Some people do not celebrate Jesus on Christmas because maybe they do not know Jesus or another reson.But to me Christmas is a great celebration of Jesus Christ my Savior.

character clue

endurance-giving up the inward strength to withstand stress and accomplish Gods best.- I think this character clue means that you should put life things aside and do what God would want you to do.also try to accomplish what God wants best for you.So if there is something that is going on in your life and God is saying that he wants you to put that aside and do what God would want you to do and he always has a plan for you.I think this is how endurance applies to my life- a way endurance is added to my life is I think every one needs to try to have endurance even I need to work on it.

Good things about our new President

Good things about our new President

Good things about Obama……. when I see Obama on .TV. I think he is a good public speaker and he seams to be vary confidant, and he has two cute little girls, he has been married to the same woman for many years which is good. I think the most important thing is that he is the first African American to be president and he will go down in history. Even though my parents did not vote for him the bible says that we need to respect our elders, and we should pray for our leaders. Most of all I am praying that he will invite Jesus in his heart, also I think you should still not disrespect Obama even if you did not vote for him.

Joyfulness-the spontaneous enthusiasm of my sprit when my soul is in fellowship with the lord

(opposite-self-pity)(bill gothard)

I am doing my character clue blog on joyfulness. I think that what this character clue means to me is you get joy from being in fellow ship with God. No matter what your going throw joy can always be in your heart if you know God. You don’t get joy from what clothes you have and what food you eat and toys you have. But you get it from your relationship with God. No matter where you live you still can have joy in the lord.

The economy

Governments around the world are trying to fix the economy. The U.S treasury department, the government’s money holder, is planning to give large and small banks $250 billon. President Bush is going to announce this Tuesday morning. World wide government leaders are in a desperate search for remedies to fix the economy. When our economy goes down almost all of the other countries go down.

Reversing its steep decline from the previous week, Wall Street rebounded like a bungee jumper Monday, soaring more than 11 percent as major governments moved to commit trillions of dollars into plans to stabilize the ailing global banking system and unlock credit markets.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose a record 936.42 points to 9,387.61, up 11.1 percent, and was outperformed by the 11.8 percent gain for the technology-heavy Nasdaq and the 11.6 percent rise for the broad Standard & Poor's 500. All of those gains were among the largest percentage jumps for the indexes in their history, and the biggest in more than 70 years for the Dow and the S&P (the Nasdaq, which did not exist until 1971, posted a bigger one-day gain in 2001).

Interview Blog

I learned many things about being a missionary from the people I interviewed. I think the most important thing that everyone said is that they did it because God called them to do it. I think that you know it's right for you to do it when you feel right about it in your heart. I learned that it doesn't take a lot of schooling but you have to be a good leader and know the bible. Lots of missionaries work together in teams and you have to get along with people. They said that the greatest reward is leading people to the Lord. You also travel a lot and help people lots of different ways. You give them shelter, food, clothes and learn to do things like they do. You teach them different ways to do things too. I think I would like to do it because I like to help people and more people need to know about God.

In less than 40 days our country will elect a new president. I was asking my dad who are we voting for and how do you know who is the right candidate to vote for .We use the bible as our yard stick to measure who to vote for .The candidate that has the most Godly characteristic wins. But in America other people use different yard sticks to make there decisions.
