What I am thankful for by KL

What am I thankful for? First, I am thankful for God. He is always there for me, if something upsetting is going on in my life, I know that he loves me. Even though I am just a kid, I realize that when Jesus died for our sins, he went through incredible pain and hardship, and we don't even deserve Him. God is the greatest blessing anyone could have. Another blessing I appreciate is my family. They have taught me everything I know, my parents especially have helped me on my journey through life. When I am sad, they comfort me. When I am angry, they calm me. My father has taught me that life is going to be hard, but sometimes you just have to tough it out. That was an amazing lesson that has helped me be a happier person. One lesson I learned from my mother is that you need to be an example for people, that sometimes a person has to step up and show everyone what a great person humans can be. Thank you God for forgiving my sins and listening to my prayers. Happy Thanksgiving.

I am thankful for many things that I have been blessed with such as music, education, being able to serve God without being imprisoned or looked down upon, food, a home, clothes, a bike, my grandparents living so close, but what I'm most thankful for is my as friends and family. They are always there for me, I can learn from their mistakes and they can learn from mine, what they have done for me and their fellowship in my life...

I am also extremely thankful that Jesus died on the cross for us because through him we can live in heaven, the most wonderful place in the universe.

What I am thankful for by JT

I am thankful for so many things that I don't think this paper is long enough to fit all the things I am thankful for. So I am not going into deep detail; I would probably bore whoever is reading this, but to start off what I am most thankful for is a grace-full God who sent his only son to die for my sins so that I may have eternal life with him. I am also overwhelmingly thankful for awesome parents. They are both always there for me. Whether they know how to deal with the situation or not, they always give me good advise and lead me in the right direction. My sister, well basically my best friend, I love her so much and am so amazingly thankful for her. My Grandparents I love them all so much and am so blessed to have all four of them still alive. But also I am indescribably thankful for meeting Linda and Jerry; they have been like a third set of grandparents to me. I am so grateful to have met them. Now when it comes to teachers there are the ones who just look at teaching as work, and they don't get along with the kids at all. But there are a few who really care about each and every student. I am just so pleased to have found Winterberry Christan Academy (WCA) and thankful for the teachers. Mr. Hill and Mr. Freeman really care, and I'm thankful to have them as teachers. And of coarse I am thankful for my friends. There is so many I'm not going to name all of them, but they have been there for me and helped me threw a lot. Last but not least, I am just thankful for a great life God has given me. I am so blessed in so many ways I don't think I count count all of them.

How can I be a blessing to others from JT

When I was asked the question, "How can I be a blessing to others?," my mind totally went blank. I did not understand what, "being a blessing," meant. So I talked to a few people, and I have come to realize to be a blessing can mean a few things; but really, if you narrow it down to be a blessing to others simply just means to smile at someone or hold the door for them. To be a blessing can mean something deeper, but simply it just means to make someone's day.

I said to be a blessing can mean something deeper; and by that I mean being a friend for someone. Not putting them down, but putting them up and pulling them along. To be a blessing on a deeper level is to care and listen to a friend's problems and try to help and if you can't help, pray for them. To simply care is being a blessing to others.

To answer the, "How can I be a blessing to others?," would have to be all of these. I can be a blessing by just putting on a smile everyday, even when I'm having a bad day. I can also be a blessing by being someone's friend and listening to what they have to say. I can also pray for them. To be a blessing is really pretty easy, it is definitely something I will strive to do.

How can I be a blessing to others from SN

Many people live their entire lives wrapped up in things that make them happy. Often they don't worry about those around them or even realize that they should.
To be a blessing you need to not to be self centered. You can help people when they need it. To be happy in life is a blessing from God. Happiness does not depend on being rich.


To be a blessing it means Ephesians 1:3

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings:"

I can be a blessing to others by helping people doing things for them.

How can I be a blessing to others from MP

Well... I can write prayers for people, and I can teach adults and kids about God if they don't Christ. I can help them and show them that Christ is a wonderful person to know. Also that he loves us. I love to write prayers to people and show then that God cares for them and that they shouldn't give up on Faith and Hope. Also that he could help them when they are struggling with life. Here is my prayer to everyone in the world and for the people who don't know Christ and how wonderful he is and that he really loves us in every way. So here is my prayer.
Dear, Jesus Christ out God our Savior, please take care of all the familys. Lord, I pray for the people who don't know you. Let them know how wonderful you really are and show them that you love them and also that you will protect them no matter what they have done. Lord, let them know that you really do care for them, and let them know that you will help them with all of the struggles that they are facing in life . Let them know that you will always be with them no matter what. Let them also know that you died for them and that you took their sins away also that there is an angel looking out for everyone.
In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Now these days at WCA have been a little hectic. Kids saying things to each other and gossip everywhere. Arguing here and there. Just picture it as if a beautiful day turned ugly. So what I am going to do is show you some different ways how to stop this MESS! Gossip,gossip,gossip,gossip. Gossip is EVERYWHERE! One way to stop it is as soon as you see it, stomp it. Which means when you see your friends gossiping you say, "Hey how would you feel if they start gossiping about you. So just stop it." If you do what is right and obey and be respectful, you will be trouble free!

How can I be a blessing to others from MS

I can be a blessing to others by helping them with there work, being a role model for others, and treating them the way I want to be treated.

When people ask me for help' I don't yell at them or tell them no. I stop what I am doing and go to the lesson they need help with. I can be a role model by listening to the teacher. I can also be a role model by telling others when they do something wrong so they don't do it again. When I see people bully someone, I just wish they would know how it feels when you get bullied. I don't care who bullies anyone, no matter what, I will always try to stick up for the person who is getting bullied. I treat others the way I want to be treated because I know how it feels when you get bullied and I know it doesn't feel good.

These are all ways I can be a blessing to others.

How can I be a blessing to others from JR

I can be a blessing to others just by doing a couple of things like holding doors, helping our parents or maybe helping some one with there homework.

One way I can be a blessing to others is by just helping people with cleaning there house. Because if you can help someone with cleaning there house,you would make the person very happy. Because they might not get that help from others, and they might some times need help with cleaning. And sometimes it pays to help others because you'll then start to like to help others to.

Another thing you can do to help be a blessing to others is maybe help them with there homework. Sometimes kids aren't good a something like math or reading. So you can help them understand how to do there work. And when you do that they might get a good grade on a test or a quiz they had. And then you know that your the one who helped them to get the good grade.

One last thing you can do to be a blessing to others is tell them about Jesus. Because if you tell someone about Jesus you are missionary because you are telling about God's mercy and grace. Also you know that some one else is now a child of God. And maybe they'll be saved and get baptized and be a child of god.

So those are some different things that you can do to be a blessing to others.

How can I be a blessing to others?

One way that I can be a blessing to others is to help my friends and class mates with school work. I can try to help them the best I can. I would probably go into my course work and see If I have done it yet and go over it with them. Another way I could be a blessing is to help my parents around the house like doing chores and doing whatever they need. Helping my parents make them happy.

I also can give great advice like ways to handle problems at home and school and with parents. I know how to make someone feel better. For example if someone was sad because of there parents getting divorced, I would be able to help them because I can relate to them. The reason people think I am a blessing is cause I know God. The reason I am so kind and know how to treat others and why I know what to say when someone needs help is cause God has put a lot of love in me. Without God I don't know what I would do. God is what puts life in people, and I know how to put that life and love in others. Also I know how to talk to others about God and everything he will do in our lives and the way he will protect us and love us.

In conclusion, the ways I can be a blessing to others is to help friends and classmates with school work, help my parents around the house, give advice to others to make them feel better and to talk to them about God and bring life and love into ther lives by showing God's greatness.

How can I be a blessing to others from JB

It means do nice things to and for other people even if you don't have to. It could be something as small as opening a door for a disabled person or buying a homeless guy a cup of hot coffee or it could be any number of things larger than that. If you were at a friend's house and their mom ask him to clean his room and do the dishes, you could help him do it. It pays to help others because you'll start to want to help others more.

Here is another thing you could do. You were at home watching tv and your mom was vacuuming the house and the dishes need to be done and the beds made, you could stop watching tv and step in and do the dishes and make the beds.


One other thing you can do to be a blessing is to tell others about God. If you tell someone about God, you are being a blessing to others, and you are being a missionary because you are telling others about God's love and mercy. Then they'll be baptized and be a child of God and go on to tell others about him.

How can I be a blessing to others

Ways that I and you can be a blessing to others.......

First I can help people with when they need help. And I could talk to them if they had a problem in school or at home.

Be kind to others. DO NOT make fun of others like call them names because what if you where that person. Do you like it when people make fun of you or call you names?

Also try to be a blessing to your parents around the house like do your chores without them telling you. Open the doors to the car or even into your house. Help your family out as best as you can.

You can introduce people to God if they don't know God because God will also help them with all of there problems.

Lastly, be a blessing to others then God will bless you in many ways.


Help others with their problems, and God will help you as well.

How can I be a blessing to others from LS

I could be a blessing to others by just seeing what should be done and simply doing it. If you see a piece of garbage on the ground pick it up! If a classmate or job mate is having a hard day, go ahead! encourage the guy! Its not hard or anything and its being a blessing to others.

You may say "Well, someone else will do it," or "That's corny to help grandma across a street." So be the person already there, and be the one that ignores what other people may think besides helping another can only be corny in your mind.

You see if you are truly being a blessing to others not only does the assisted or comforted friend feel better but you will feel an inside joy that objects on earth cannot bring, it is the joy of the Lord the joy that God promises to those who help there brother and love there neighbor. So I challenge you to truly be your brother's keeper and to be a blessing to others.
