God's Word by X.M. Elijah - Essay November 11, 2009


As a requirement, I let the children write an essay for one hour. It can be a topic of their choice. Elijah will sometimes ask me for a prompt.

Elijah is 12 years old. For his essay, he wrote the following:

God's Word

AMDG

God's word is the Bible. The Bible has made many miracles happen and God has talked to many people through the Bible. In the Bible, there is the entire history before and after Christ. The Bible could hold all of the answers to your problems. The Bible might say something that could relate to something you need to work on. The Bible might bring you to a closer relationship with God. The Bible could tell you what God is calling you to do.

When Jesus was born, the Bible became flesh. Jesus was really a walking, talking, breathing, living Bible. The Bible could answer a question about your faith. The Bible is like a history book but better. The Bible could solve a problem like bullying or a mean teacher or a bad friend by the story in the Bible that really happened. David and Goliath are good examples about dealing with bullying. The Bible is one of the very best resources to know about your faith. Why? Because it is the Word of God.
