Recently I saw a post on Facebook in which a dad has his son do his own pledge before he goes to school. I came up with my own version, I'm Calling it the Mark 12:30 Pledge. I take credit for this, but any person or institution can use this, change it, take it, etc.
I decided to share it thinking that it could have some use in a Christian school, in a family, or etc.
THE MARK 12:30 PLEDGE
TODAY IS going to be a GREAT DAY!
I thank God for giving me this day;
For the opportunity to learn, grow and
become the Christian leader he intends for me to be.
God gave me a good heart:
I pledge to use it to love Him as well as others to the best of my ability.
God gave me a resilient soul:
I pledge to use it to follow Him,
and to see each challenge as an opportunity instead of an obstacle.
God gave me a capable mind:
I pledge to use it to learn HIS ways and work hard as a student and as a leader.
God gave me strength:
I pledge to use my strength to lift up the fallen, and glorify God in all that I do.
With these tools; and with the help of God,
Nothing is impossible.
So I will walk in faith through the open doors, and
NOT be discouraged when some doors close.
Instead, I will push on. I will persevere.
I will stand with integrity on the promises of God.
This is my pledge.
