I'm doing 43 things
It just sort of came up. My friend is mad at God because of what has happened in his life. I told him that God still loved him and sent His Son Jesus because of that love.

How I did it
It made me

Our local paper sponsors a contest every Christmas season. You get a small amount of money (about $25) and publication if your piece qualifies. I’m writing an essay of less than 900 words and submitting it this year.
