A Welcome Back by Mr. Winkelmann
A new school year is beginning and with it
A LOT
Of pressure
Of grades
Of extra-curriculars
Of sports
Of jobs
Of homework
But always remember
WE HAVE A GOD
A great God
A magnificent God
A marvelous God
A wonderful God
We have a God who cares
More about grace than grades
More about love than lit papers
More about mercy than Math equations
More about service than sports
More about prayer than pom-poms
More about hope than homework
From the kid who gets valedictorian, to the kid who gets straight D’s
From the kid who hits the winning shot at state, to the kid who gets cut from the freshmen team
From the lead in every musical, to the person who barely made chorus
GOD LOVES ALL THE SAME
WIth a crazy amount of love that will never ever ever never ever stop
With a love that
Makes Itself flesh
Walks on water
Crosses deserts
Raises the dead
Eats with sinners
Bleeds and dies on a cross
