Secrets people with good deeds
Monday we watched a episode of Secret Millionaire, and this millionaire guy went to Skid Row to see what its like to be homeless and not have any real money. I noticed that i should be grateful for all the things i have and not take grant for the material things God gave me. It also opened my eyes to show how poor some of the people are in the United States and how much help there is around the world. I thought that Skid Row was also just a road with a lot of poor people, violence and drugs, but it showed me that there are people down there trying to help everyone change their lifes show God in their lives and give hope to all the poor people. There was that one guy that started that 3 on 3 basketball league, and i really liked how he choice a sport to bring people together and try to help everyone in Skid Row. So i think i need to start thanking God more for the things i have, and finding ways to help all the poor and needy people in the world.

Chapters 6 & 7
Well here are the things that i wrote down for the questions we got. well i spend my free time mainly just doing things for myself, and then every once in a while i will do stuff for God and others. and i give some of my money to church but i mean i dont give it all away, and then i am in Boy Scouts (now im a Eagle Scout, haha) and i play sports so i guess you could say i focus on myself most the time. Mark 10:21, Luke 6:20 and 24, and Luke 18:25 talk about giving away money to the poor and needy, and i just need to think that this money really isnt mine, and that God gave me this so i can use it wisely and there are other people in the world that need this more than i do. i also learned that you bette be ready to give up everything for God cause he could ask you to do that, and its hard for a rich man to get into heaven because he likes his money more than God. In matthew 6:33 is probably hardest for me, because i want to make myself comfortable an then seek God, which i shouldnt.
the worst thing about TV is probably the tv shows that show teens getting pregnant and then passing it off as if its no big deal. 3 ways that tv negatively is 1. probably showing worthless products that dont do anything for me an just give them more money, 2.it messes up my mind with all the random stuff that the half, 3. and it keeps my buys when i could be doing some productive other than just wasting time. and that i spend a lot more time watching tv than i do with God, which is sad
