know that I am not alone, and with God, all things are possible! This week’s verse reminds us that we are not alone, and we have the power to overcome any obstacle through God’s love and strength within us. You may face tough exams, social pressures, self-doubt, pressure from

parents and family, but you are more than conquerors through Christ. Your worth and identity

are rooted in His love, not in your grades or achievements. Take a deep breath, trust in His

About the Contributor

De’Omrie McAfee

My name is De’Omrie Mcafee, I joined the journalism class to expand my horizons by talking more with people and learning about public interest. Some characteristics about me that I think people like are my sense of humor, my sense of fashion, and I’m pretty dang smart.Also, I like to spend time with my friends in our free time. We like to hang out at my house and play video games and listen to music. I often tend to watch football when I get bored. It helps me find something to look forward to when I get out of my chair. The quote that I try to live by is “This is just a small setback for a Big comeback.”
