Conversations

We are on a block schedule at VCS and on blue days (Monday-Wednesday-Every other Friday) I have a planning period during 4th block. This is also the same period all of the seniors have a study hall. At our school seniors don't have to be at school for 1st and 4th block study halls, so they can come late or leave school early. Although they take full advantage of coming late, they tend to like to hang out in my room instead of going home early. Although this doesn't allow me to get any work done, it provides for entertaining times, and amazing conversations.

Yesterday, one of the seniors came in and was asking me some really difficult questions. Questions the Bible doesn't answer in black in white. One question was if someone had never heard about God or Jesus, so they didn't know anything about them, and they died, would they go to heaven? Again, I found myself fumbling through the answers and praying God was making sense of my babbling in his heart.

It is truly amazing the opportunities God provides for us to share his truth and his Word. It made me think of the conversations we COULD have, if only we were willing to start them.

  1. Ok, this color scheme is good. The others were just a little so so, but I really like this one . . .of course if Matt objects to the pink you might have to find something a little more gender neutral, but hey pink IS the new black!:)
