By faith, Noah built a ship in the middle of dry land. He was warned about something he couldn’t see, and acted on what he was told.
Hebrews 11:7

I marvel at how deftly they juggle sports, academics, dance, and theatre, for instance. I have learnt how to accept failure as I see my students taking success and failure with equan...
