WE




Back in September the middle school group took an overnight trip to New Frontiers. We had a blast on their ropes course. However, we walked away with more than a day of fun but a better understanding of the pronoun we. The ropes course challenged us in a tangible manner to look to others for help, advice, and safety. While many of us were pushed beyond our fears one common denominator to get us through was the help of a friend. The pronoun I is not enough to get us through the circumstances of life. The beauty of we says, "two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their work. For if they fall, one will lift up his friend. But sad to him who is alone when he falls and has not a friend to lift him up. And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him." We screams out, "I got your back!!"
