He got 4 brands of soil. The first soil he got was to clumpy and the seeds could not grow. The second soil he got was filled with pebbles and there was no space for the seeds to grow. The third soil he got was poisoned with chemicals and instantly killed the seeds. Finally the fourth soil was perfect, the seeds fell perfectly inside and grew quickly. Soon they came out to be beautiful flowers. The clumpy soil represents people who know about the kingdom of God but don't understand it. The rocky soil represents people who hear about it and understand it but do not accept it. The poisoned soil represents people who hear about the kingdom of God but are filled with sin. The last soil represents people who accept, understand, and know the kingdom of God, they are willing to spread it to others. ]]> 2023-03-23 16:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/un992ywty3t24ivx/wish/2529175138 https://padlet.com/michellenowak3/un992ywty3t24ivx/wish/2529183479 There once was a man who had a spending habit and was in tremendous debt.

Then the principal came in and said to the aces, " You guys will get extra recess for the next week, for your good behavior, leadership while volunteering with the younger grades, and willingness to help others on our service field trip."

The boss paid them both until a few days later when the first worker won the lottery and quit his job right there on the spot. However, the second worker stayed at his job, even working overtime some days to keep his boss happy. Sometime later, the first worker came back into the shop and tells his boss that he lost all his money, that he is sorry for everything he has done, and he needs his job back. However, the boss feels excitement that he gets to see his long-lost employee and he graciously gives his job back and he even gives the man two paydays into one. Filled with jealousy, the worker who stayed with the boss complains that it’s not fair how he gets his job back and gets money right away.

Out of nowhere, a group of kids came by and proceeded to beat and rob him. He laid on the side of the street for a while, eventually he saw one of his teachers walk by. They made eye contact, but the teacher didn’t hesitate to cross the road. A few minutes went by before he saw a group of his classmates walk by who also didn’t help him and kept walking. Finally, a Lake Catholic Cougar came along in his car and stopped. He immediately ran out to help him. He picked him up and got him into his car. He drove the injured Lion to a nearby hospital and gave the secretary at the front desk all the money in his wallet. He then got out a check and gave it to the secretary blank, and told her that anything the NDCL student needed he’d pay for. Then the Cougar went to the store and picked up some snacks before returning to the hospital to be with his new friend.
