rise up and stand up

Victory

God gave us victory over death when he gave us his son’s life to save us from our sins so that we would have eternal, everlasting life. Jesus suffered greatly when he gave up his life to save us from our sins. He loves you greatly when he gives up his life to save you. We should always think of the great sacrifice that God has given for us on earth so that we will live on after death in a spiritual form. A Father or Mother grieves deeply at the death of one of their children. We all want our family members to live on and have one of the many rooms in God’s house in heaven.

Victorious

To the victor goes the spoils. If you win a race in a race car, you get the prize money and a fantastic trophy to display. In all competitions, one outstanding athlete always stands out above the others. He may have made the most home runs in the history of baseball. The Wright brothers were the first to fly an airplane that made it any distance. All of us are victorious in something that will make a difference in the world for us having been here. We all have hidden talents that others may not know about until we are put to the test. Try to be victorious in what you donate to society for being here; maybe you were a good listener, comforted people when they needed you the most, discovered a cure for a horrible disease, and much more.

Rise From Defeat

If someone has belittled or put you down, rise up and prove them wrong. I had an adult who put me down when I was very young and I was not related to her. She was supposed to set an excellent example for me as she was my first teacher in school. She would laugh at me at my expense and have the other kids in my class join in. She would have me sit in the corner for no reason at all. She told me to stay after school and clean the clock. I told her I could not as I rode the school bus. Luckily, I told my cousin to talk to the bus driver, and she did. The bus driver came in for me, and she told my bus driver that I was so dumb I did not know that I rode the bus. I believed what she had said to me that year and kept my mouth shut, fearing that someone would laugh at what I said. I kept quiet way into adulthood. I almost died from a horrible illness twice in my life; after recovering from the last one, I got my voice back and could visit easily with anyone. Never let a bully put you down and control your life. I mainly would not talk to girls about my age as I did not trust them for years because of that grown-up bully teacher. I proved her wrong, and I can now visit and converse with anyone just as well as anyone could. To the victor goes the spoils. I was finally victorious.
