Lately, I've been going to a bible study every Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday. The lessons that are being taught are really good, mostly like
honoring your parents, spending time with family, obeying, faith, and
kindness.
But, yesterday the entire middle school got called into a private little assembly/meeting thing because for the past two days people had been coming to our principal and saying stuff like, "He said this about this person" "She said this, this, this, and this about me", stuff like that. So our principal decided he didn't want to hear about "Middle School Drama", and the next time he heard about it, if you're the person who came and told him that, you would go to I.S.S (a.k.a In School Suspension).
The very next day, today, we had a bible study in which we talked about having a pure mouth. Ryan, our bible study leader, showed us the verses Proverbs 21:19, Philippians 4:8, 1 John 4:19, Colossians 3:9. After we talked about how to keep a pure mouth and how to be a leader to all the other kids in our school who haven't kept a pure mouth. After we were done talking we listened to the song "Courageous" by Casting Crowns. In the first verse it said " We were made to be courageous, We were made to lead the way, We could be the generation that could finally break the chains. We were made to be courageous! Lord make us courageous!" And for the whole year that I've listened to this song and sang the words while starring out a car window, I never once thought about how it could possibly apply to me. Until today, when I listened to it for the 4 millionth time and really truly paid attention to the words that i was singing under my breath in a crowded math room. Surrounded by 40 other people who don't even believe what I do. I finally looked passed the catchy lyrics and saw what it really meant. That my generation could finally be the generation that can lead people to the Lord and away for sins, addictions, and temptations.
THANK YOU CASTING CROWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Phillipians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever thing are true, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Proverbs 12:19
The lip of truth shall be established forever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
1 John 4:19
We love him, because he first loved us.
Colossians 3:9
Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds.
