There are only two religions in the world: works and grace. Works has many denominations and sects all with a desire to be like God but without the power to do so (“God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:4). Grace has only one denomination with many cults (reference previous sentence). Without grace I would be hopeless, grasping, scheming.

Mr. Francis,
I just wanted to thank you SO much for everything you’ve done for me this past semester. I know that I was this major brat who didn’t care about anything or put forth any effort. But Mr Francis – you showed me that i really CAN be good at something if I actually try. Now don’t get me wrong, you’re probably one of the hardest teachers i’ve ever had in my entire school career, yet i’m very thankful for that. I do believe God kept me in your classroom for many reasons, and i am SO thankful. You’ve taught me so much, not just about science, but about who i am as a person and how God can work in many wonderful ways. But I just wanted to say thank you. VERY MUCH.
Yours truely,
Kayla M. McNeely
