List of people who I left comments for:

1. Lauren Cooper: I do understand how hard thing can be some time, give it a little more effort and thing will get better. You can help people any where. Why mot red cross instead of a clinic. Your first goal is just an idea over time and as thing go you may need to change thing.
2. Danielle Edinburgh-Wilson: Nice project you seem to be very organized and have everything planed out and in order. I not to sure about thanksgiving that a little soon why not around Christmas that when people really need help. Try to work a little harder find time I sure you can do it.
3. Susan Isaacs: It always great to take time out and help our youth. It is not only beneficial to them but our society. Building a bond with a child is great thing the thing you teach them now they will take with them forever.
4. Taieka Jackson: It’s a good thing you want people to be involved in a religion but at the same time that a touchy subject and might be a little harder than what you think. what gives you the right to force you views on other
5. Karl Jenkins: I never really was too interested in global warming but your project seems quite interesting. brochure are a good idea but what is going to make people want to read them
6. Julian Jordan: It’s always a positive thing to get you whole family involved. At least you all agree that this is a real problem. No teachers do not get paid nearly enough for the work they do. But so don’t a lot of other hard working decent other jobs. In idea you project is good but do you really thing you can make a change.
7. Brittany Singleton: Sorry you did not achieve your goal. It a good thing to give blood. By just taking a few minutes out of you day you can save a life. the only thing I would say is next time try to get more people to go
8. Krista Richardson: It’s good you want to help end poverty. But in reality there will always be people with less there will never be a end to poverty. I mean you can do thing to try to make it better but there will always be poverty
9. Denisa Hancock: I think your project is going very good. Education is all ways the key to success and yet over look by so many of our youth and adults. By helping our youth you are giving them a chance at having a future. Do not for get who you are helping and the reason that made you want to get involved.

10. Eboni Kaglear:I’m glad you want to reach out and help people with the Medicaid. Helping people get the medicine and thing is very very important. Every body rich or poor should be able to go to the doctor and get the same type of quality service.

The story of Job in the bible can some what relate to New Orleans and its past events. The Book of Job is a popular book in the bible because it teaches you about how when thing in your life are not going right if you keep your faith in God he will make things even better than when you started. The main question that many people have after reading Job is, “why good things happen to bad people and why do bad thing happen to good people. This question I think was asked by many people after Hurricane Katrina and the tragedy that happen to New Orleans. Thousands of people lost not only their homes, but also other family members and all of their personal possessions. New Orleans like Job at first was a profitable city and was a top city among others. But also like Job New Orleans had to go though a time of test to see how strong it faith was, taking down all the thing that was secreted and so historic to it culture. Some people after being displace so long began to become frustrated and question what was going on. When Job does finally decide to question God, he responds questionably. He says “Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?” In other words, you cannot create something as wonderful as the earth, therefore who are you to question me? The answer is short and simple. But also like Job when the time came for everything to get better New Orleans came back bigger, better, safer, and cleaner than it had ever been. A saying that is often said in my church is, “In order to have a Testimony you must first go though the Test”. Saying that to say you first have to go through the hard time before you can really see how far god has brought you.

Psalm 22 is chapter in the bible that is often used when referring to the death of Jesus. Psalm 22 is about a person asking why God has forsaken them and is no longer being there. I think that at one time or another in some point in life everyone feels as if God is no longer in there and had left them alone to fight for them selves. Like no matter how much you call on God, he never seems to give you an answer. You would think that this person is mad at God and yet they say that God is holy, the person’s ancestors called on God and trusted that God would be there and God always came through for them. I believe that Psalm 22 is saying that when times get hard and feels as though God has left you, you must remember that God is always there and God will always help you no matter what.
