I will be thankful for Christian Education. I will be thankful for the Scripture I was taught, espe- cially, Wherewithal shall a young man tpersonl cleanse his therl way. By taking heed thereto according to Thy Word ..,. With my whole heart have I sought Thee. O let me not wander from They commandments ..., Thy Word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against Thee. I will be thankful for the faithful men and women who taught me the precious truth of They Word - such as Therefore I esteem all Thy precepts concerning all things to be right: and I hate every false way. When l leave T.C.S. I will want to be a practicing Christian, and not in name only. I will remember, Order my steps in Thy Word and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. As I leave the familiar halls of T.C.S. I am thankful that at this age there has been already instilled in me life's most important values and objectives as expressed in this verse, Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. I know the path of life will lead through some dark and obscure places. I will be thankful for the presence of ONE, so closeand so real. I will be comforted by a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. I must go now and when the way becomes difficult and dim I will remember that Jesus said, I am the Light of the world. This will be a comfort to me and I.will say to Him, For Thou art my lamp, O Lord, and the Lord will lighten my darkness. ' I. an QQ QQ QD ,Q 03 no oo ooo

G I1 S if I The theme ofthe 1980-81 TEKOA is Thy Word. . . a lamp unto 9 Q -fi 70, , f 'I my feet . . . a light unto my path. B ff:f- lf ,- ..-Q The following comments portray some of the thoughts that if enter the mind of a graduate. U I Sometimes the path of life makes abrupt turns. Sometimes is cv-ff '-I these lead through dark and obscure places. It is then that there is ' 'jx . --I great comfort in the promise, 'Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet 3' .i,.---ati., -f I and a Light unto my path.' As I meditate upon the twists and turns is is ,R -f . . ' 'X - ofthe Path of life, I can only conclude that, 'the Lord directeth his h -h if fmyl Steps. - as - -L' When the way is dark and the path unclear I am also aware of a 9 Presence. l'm sure if I looked back I'd see two sets of footprints. I Qs ,D Z- .-4 am reminded of an anonymous poem which expresses this ' 0 S k .. jp-A thought. It is entitled, Dream . S 5-----, One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking 9 'ge I along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from i fs 9 , his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the ' 9 tb I sand, one belonged to him, the other to the Lord. I When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked 1 I back at the footprints in the sand. Then he noticed that many 65 ' times along the path of his life was only one set of footprints. He '3 'B 1 also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times Q5 of his life. - That really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. 9m 5 'Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with vi 9 ,fl me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most trouble- Q some times in my life there is only set of footprints. I don't under- stand why, in the times when I needed you the most, you would Q leave me'. Q The Lord replied, 'My precious, precious child, I love you and K , would never leave you. During the times of trials and sufferings, 2- ,I when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried Q' you.' When I am reminded that it is the Lord who directs my steps, I E begin to see life from God's point of view . It is at this time that if many things become clear. My time here at Timberlake Christian School has been by God's design. My stay here is because of Q: 7 God's direction. ' I wonder how my life appears from God's point of view '? I X wonder how Timberlake Christian School appears from God's , E point of view ? L i A. ii I

First, what is Christian education? It is the educat- ing of the whole man - physical, mental, and spiritual. As we discover and apply the inter-relationships be- tween these areas from a Biblical point of view, we have a Christian education. We feel that when we apply these Biblical Principles that are embodied in Christian education we are following God's direction for developing the total person. Second, at T.C.S., a Christian education is distinc- tive because, in addition to what we have just men- tioned above, we are learning the principles upon which a Christian nation and society functions. America is-different because of her heritage and foundation upon these principles. As we learn and apply them in our daily living, we begin to see the part that we are to play in God's plan for us as individual Christian Americans. - ORIENTED MINISTRY
