Topic: Teacher (10/26/06)
"Good day my class," the teacher says as he walks in the door. Today we will split up into two groups, Group G and Group B. As of right now you do not know what group you are in or the meaning of the two. However, as I call your name please stand and go with the group that has been assigned to you, Group G is on the right and B is on the left. Amanda, Samantha, Carol, Carl, Kendrick, Michael, Hanna, Steven and Odessa please go to my right. Jeremiah, Oscar, Sharon, Charlotte, Percy, Marcia, Gladys and Tyler please go to my left.

Now as you can see there is a separation between the two groups, while one group is to the left and the other one to the right, there is a gap in the middle. Clearly, there is a difference between the two groups and the outcome that you will hear today will be life changing. See I have been paying close attention to every one of you. The homework and class assignments have been carefully graded. Your actions have been closely monitored. Some of you do not turn in homework; you sit here complacent with where you are. You have many resources in this classroom, peers, books, the internet and you also have me; I am the teacher and I know the way to go. I have been here the whole time and I am not sure why some of you do not acknowledge me.

The students that stand to the right of me, "Well done, you are faithful to this class, even though you have errors you keep striving to correct them." Keep up the good work, your faithfulness has granted you a reward which I will discuss with you soon.
Everyone to my left, yes you come to class but you are usually late. When you come you show no effort and your actions show that you do not want to be here. Why do you continuously disrupt my teaching and try to distract your peers? What are your desires in this class? Unfortunately your time has expired, you will no longer be allowed to enter in this class, it's like I never knew you. Please leave.

Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ our great teacher is by far the greatest teacher. His mind is greater than our mind. Often times we do not obey God and stand complacent; God taps us to move and he wants us to move when he says move. We sure want the blessings and want God to move fast for us but we don’t always move fast on his instructions. Let us pray together for an obedient and willing spirit to our teacher, for we do not know when it will be the last tim

Creative retelling of the "separation of the sheep and goats" parable from Matthew 25.

However, there were some punctuation errors that made for some awkward, run-on sentences in paragraphs two and three. Also, your use of quotation marks wasn't consistent.

Thank you for sharing an important message through your story. Keep writing!
