Christianity
I value that I can achieve all things through Christ and will be forgiven of my sins as long as I repent and continue to worship God. For 4th and 5th grade, my parents enrolled me in a private Christian school so I could be surrounded with more kids that have the same faith and morals as me. As a strong Christian, I have always tried to attend Church every Sunday or Wednesday. I pray everyday whether it is before my meals or at a random moment. I am currently reading the Bible in order to strengthen my relationship with the Lord and learn how to better my life. The song, "He Still Loves Me," from the movie, The Fighting Temptations, is a symbol of Christianity and an index of when I rededicated myself to the lord in church when I was a sophomore in high school. The song discusses the many hardships one has gone through and the sins committed, but in the end, God still loves him and turns the individual's life around. At that time in my life, my grandpa was diagnosed with cancer, my best friend attempted to commit suicide, and my dad was struggling with his business. I was a different person back then and was not as faithful to Lord as I should have been. The lyrics mention, "I'm not perfect yes I do wrong I'm tryin my best but it ain't good enough...cuz I ain't good enough but he still loves me." The piano in the beginning of the song serves as a melody of the struggles being encountered. The Choir in the background really echoes the key phrases in the lyrics. Beyoncé Knowle's voice depicts the pain felt through the rough journey.
