Say it isn't so...Chlo!!!

Chloe shocked us all today when she showed up for seminary with a sprained ankle- Especially when it was the day of CHS Waterpolo league Finals! We compared today's lesson from Acts 8:1-4 about how the Lord allows His people to be tried to accomplish His purposes, to Chloe's trial. We talked about the pros and cons of her trial and what she'd possibly learn. Some of the pros were that she'd learn compassion for others who were hurt, patience, sympathy, gain strength from being on crutches. In Acts 8:1-4, the early church converts experienced persecution and many were scattered abroad which allowed them to preach the gospel in the places they went..which resulted in a great blessing. We talked about how all of our trials can be blessings in our life as we keep relying on the Lord for guidance and help. We can always look for the good in our experiences. PS: The class was surprised to find out that Chloe wasn't really hurt...but was just part of our lesson-WHEW! (also-CHS Varsity Waterpolo WON!)
