Jazz and I have had a really fun time performing with our school choir. CLmyfaithmag.com
We love spending time with our friends practising and working at making
each and every song sound perfect.

Our choir teacher is very strict and she expects us to go home and
practise every day. It’s hard work learning all the lyrics but pays off when
we win the choir competitions or even just to see the proud look on our
choir teacher’s face. Not to mention the delicious ice cream she spoils us
with when we do well.

Mom and dad have always taught us that hard work pays off and that it
is a quality of a child of God. The Bible says in Colossians 3:23 that we
should do everything as if we were doing it for the Lord because He will
reward our good work even if people do not always appreciate it.
That means that when we do our school work or house chores or any
task that we take on, that we should do it to the best of our abilities. God
blesses us when we obey His word and follow His instructions and even
though hard work may be tough sometimes, it is always to our benefit.

Every day God blesses us with health, strength, wisdom and resources
to take on our daily tasks. It is our responsibility to be good stewards
and to be an example to those around us that God’s children work with
excellence.
