Proverbs 11

     This week I chose Proverb 11: 13. It says, " A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy person keeps a secret." This means that a person who spreads rumors and gossip can not be trusted by another with their secrets. I agree with this because no one can have confidence in someone who spreads rumors around all the time. You don't want to tell them anything.
     One Action step i can take for this is to not be the person to spread rumors. When someone tells me something I will make sure to honor it and keep it between me and that person.
     Second action step would be to when I tell someone a secret I would make sure they would keep it a secret and if they did I would be very disappointed and make sure to not tell them something like that again.

Proverbs 10

This week I chose Proverbs 10: 14. It says: "The wise store up knowledge, but the mouth of a fool invites ruin." This means that smart people keep things to themselves and don't spread things around such as rumors. While fools talk about things and instigate problems with themselves and others. I liked this verse because I agree with what it says smart people keep things to themselves while foolish ones spread stuff around and only make other people mad. My first step to improve this is to be a smart person and not to spread rumors around. My second step is to try and stop all rumors that come to me and tell the person to stop spreading them too.

Proverbs 9

     This week I chose Proverbs 9: 12. It says: ^"If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer." This means the people who are smart will be rewarded by God in the long run, while people who mock or make fun of others will lose their friends and close ones. I thought this was good advice because those who are mean to others really do lose their friends. It is very important to be nice to everyone, you don't want to be considered a bad friend by anyone.
     My first action step will be to emphasize being nice to everyone and to not poke fun at anyone. My second step will be to give my friends reasons to be nice to me and think I am a good friend by helping them however and whenever i can.

This is a story of Joe Paterno's funeral plans. This is an interesting story because he was a legendary coached who has just passed away. He touched many many people and it is good to see how great of an influence he had on so many young people.

2) http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/46118929/ns/today-today_health/t/kids-seek-tans-use-less-sunscreen-they-age/
This story is about kids as they get older become more and more care free about their skin as they think it is important to look better. They are more concerned about their looks than their own health. I thought it was an interesting story at this time because in the winter more and more young people use tanning beds.

Proverbs 8

I chose Proverbs 8: 35. It says: "For those who find me find life and receive favor from the LORD." This means that those who keep Gods faith are better off and will be helped and guided by God. One action step I can take in my life to ensure of this is to keep going to mass every Sunday and listen to all the readings. Another step i can take is to help and make sure my family and friends stay close with God so we can all be in good health and guidance from the lord.

Feature Story Ideas

My first idea for a featured article is the Birdie Mobile. The birdie mobile is owned by the Neary family. It would be interesting to show everyone how much work it actually took to make such a sweet ride.

My second idea is the growing concern of lack of snow days. And the growing disappointment from the seniors.

http://www.cnn.com/2012/01/16/living/caregiver-stress-report/index.html?hpt=hp_c3

This articles were both very interesting but i will talk about the first link. It is a story about NFL quarterback Tim Tebow. Tebow is a well known Christian to everyone who follows the NFL. He has had many wild comebacks this year resulting to lots of attention towards his deep belief in God. So last Sunday when he passed for 316 yards there was much attention drawn towards the bible verse John 3:16. I thought this was a good feature story because it isn't a high news story but it is a very interesting read.

Proverbs 7

This week i chose Proverbs 7: 25. It says: "Do not let your heart turn to her ways or stray into her paths." I chose this one because a person needs to stay to their own way. Because to stray away and fall into other peoples ways can often lead to bad things. This week i'm going to try and pray to God to try and help me live my own life following my own path.

My interest..

My interests are
1) barbies
2) kittens
3)dance
4)horseback riding
5) Zach Wurth (he is my favorite!!) ;)

Proverbs 6

This weeks Bible Verse I chose Proverbs 6: 14-15. It says, "who plots evil with deceit in his heart— he always stirs up conflict. Therefore disaster will overtake him in an instant; he will suddenly be destroyed—without remedy."It is saying that those who are mean or evil are the ones who end up hurt and lost.  I like this one because it is very true. People who stir up drama and anger in others always end up hurt and unhappy becuase other people from outside the situation usually disagree with the mean person.  This week I am going to try and stay away from anything that could make others unhappy.

Proverbs 4

This week i chose Proverbs 4: 24 it says: Keep your mouth free of perversity; keep corrupt talk far from your lips. I think this is a very good verse because when people open their mouths and bad things come out it only leads to controversy and people being upset. This week I'm going to try and make sure to not say anything wrong about or to anyone. I think this will lead to more and more people trying to do this.

Proverbs 5

This week I chose Proverbs 5: 21. It says: "For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths." I chose this one because it is saying that everything you do, good or bad, God is always watching. This is just like we learn as little kids that God is always watching over us at all times. It comforts us to know that. This week I'm going to try and remember this more and try to make sure and only do nice things because I know God is always watching.

Proverbs 3

I chose Proverbs 3: 3-4, it reads "Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man." I like this verse because it shows the importance of love and God in our life. Without God we wouldn't have our lives and without love there wouldn't be a point to life. God put us here to be compatible with eachother and work together as one. The end of the verse tells us that by doing this we will become closer with God which is very true and is repeated throughout the bible. This week I want to try and be more loving to others as God wants us to.

My buds

I have a lot of buds at this school. I have many bff's (best friends forever). I'm probs the coolest out of my friends but its whatevs. I accept them anyways. They are my bruhs. We like to hang out on the weekends and shoot the loop. We're pretty much the bees knees and/ or the cats pajamas. That's about all i have to say about my buds for today

Proverbs 2

I chose Proverbs 2: 7-8. It says "He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,  for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones." I liked this verse because it talks about believing in God and it will lead you in the right direction. It is telling us that God has us all taken care of. I know some people have a hard time believing this but i truelly think following God's guideness is not only the best way to do anything but also the only way. We all can learn to depend on God more because he is always there to help us. If i learn to better understand this verse it will help me stay more stress free and relaxed knowing God is always there for me.

Proverbs 1

     I chose Proverbs 1 : 8 as the verse that caught my eye. It says : "Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching." This is telling us to obey and listen to our father and mother. This is trying to tell me to do a better job of doing this. It's very easy as a teenager to disagree and want to argue with your parents. I know I can have trouble with this sometimes and I can definitely do a better job of listening to them. For my Action Step I want to try and obey my parents more without a question or comment back to them.
