What God Made

by Jake Mena

God made the sun, that shines so bright,

He made the moon to reflect its light.

He made the trees and plants to grow,

All for us to witness and know.

He made the stars to twinkle at night,

So we could see by their dim light.

He made the animals big and small,

So many we can't count them all.

God made people from here and there and showed His precious love,

When He sent His only Son to make them His beloved.

The Gun

Saturday I was given an early birthday present; and I bet you can't guess what it was...

Yep...it was a .243 caliber hunting rifle.

I had been saving my money for a while, but didn't have enough yet. My parents and grandparents decided to pitch in so that I would have enough. Dad & mom decided to surprise me with it yesterday. Here is a little video of it:

And here I am shooting it:

And here are some pics

We'll be going hunting sometime this week. I'll let you know how it goes.
