God does great things


I have a dream that life will get better, and changes will occur. That peace will be given to all who seek it. I believe that life takes work, time, strength, and pressure. I have a dream that the world will be safer if we make it that way. I believe in second chances, and that what we desire has a chance to occur. God knows nobody’s perfect, and we all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, but God gives us true mercy, and second chances, and so do our teachers and admin. Life isn’t as simple as A, B, C, or, 1, 2, 3. It is much more than people see it. We all have to work together, and challenge ourselves to do the “impossible”, because with God and the kindness of each other, and the full commitment to do what is right is the start to defeat the “impossible”. There is a greater world, and a greater society that we could gain if everyone believed, and decided to do what is right. I mean honestly. You may drink or get high, on earth right now, and you have your temporary high, or you may steal because “you” may think that it will get you somewhere, and that it will make you feel good, but here is the thing. When you pass and you go down under, and then rise. You will not be able to take your possessions with you, and you will no longer have your temporary high. None of that will when you are gone. You won’t miss your past, but you will regret all of the mistakes that you have made, when you are gone. You’ll think, man. Why didn’t I change? My life wasn’t complete, and I didn’t fight my faults. I wasted my time, and didn’t make my desired change, and I let those who loved me, cared for me, and trusted me most “down”. I have a dream that the practice of change will result in change, and others will look at us as the generation who did, and not the generation who didn’t, and that the hopes of others will be remembered, because we decided to fight through all of that. I have a dream that the greatest prize in “life”, is when you change someone else, and make it better. Make it deeper. That you conquered your destiny, and made others new, by changing the perception of yourself, and attitude towards others, and yourself. Success is your fate. Strength can be your reality. I have a dream that my reality will change. People will look at us, and judge us saying, “Those kids are trouble makers”. “Those kids are just impossible, but I believe otherwise. The last time I checked, none of us are Jesus, and we all have our faults, and there is our opportunity to change their minds, and make them see that we are the “future”. The “new life”. The ones who will make a difference. We are all special, and we can all change. God gives us chance after chance, and all we do is we take the things that God gives us for granted, and that is not the way that life should be lived. We should give everything our “all”, and succeed in everything that comes our way, because everything in life is a challenge, and the honest answer to all of our problems is “defeat”, so when we take that word out of the situation, there will be
