so today was the last day of the semester. which meant it was the last day of land, culture, book :[ i looove how mr becksvoort ended the class. it really hit me how much i have learned this semester and how amazing God is. as we stood on the path, looking over the school, mr bex pointed out all of the places we have gone for a a lesson.
-the chaotic "river". the sin that we get stuck in and that only God and community can pull us out of.
-the eucalyptus tree and ice plant. we have to be broken to grow. we also have to be broken to reveal God.
-the track, our Christian lives. Its a run, like the olympics, but God is there to cheer us on.
-the worldly parking lot. having nice things is not bad, but underlying them is a culture that is fighting for our souls.
-the classroom. where i learned so much! i learned to dig into the Bible and the culture to find the real meaning of it.
this semester has been a good one. i learned so much!

i loved being in that class with you!
did you find the meaning of or'el? i cant find it anywhere!
well jessica found that Or means light and i found that el means God. so idk if its like God's light or something. i really wanna ask him tho!
so i emailed him bc i really wanted to know, and he said yes, and to "read Psalm 4 (especially v. 3-6, but the whole thing is great) and Matthew 5:14-16 (esp. v.16)"
so is that a yes, we are God's light??
yes
