I hate school sometimes. And lately, it's been all the time. In history, we've been studying the Holocaust. And on our essay portion of the test, one of the essays was to explain and apply this quote to our lives: "The only thing it takes for an evil man to succeed is for a good man to do nothing." This quote hit me. I've never thought so hard on an essay question before. How true is that statement? Its true enough to let Hitler kill millions of innocent people! It's true enough to allow bullies in schools! We, as Christians, need to stand up for everyone in need. If we stand by and do nothing, Satan will just get stronger and stronger. We absolutely can't let that happen. We are the good people, and we cannot let Satan win.
(To explain the title, my English teacher says the funniest things sometimes. Everyone was complaining today about a question on the quiz and someone mentioned how they were stupid, and she replied with, "You aren't stupid, you're just wimpy." I love her.)
