If the school story, what lessons can we learn from it?

A key lesson from the animal school story is acceptance. The animals are all forced to learn the same things, which causes problems for some of them. But if they were accepted for who they are and what they're good at, they would be much happier and more successful. For instance, the rabbit is fast at running but slow at swimming. Instead of making it struggle with swimming, it should be allowed to focus on its running ability. This acceptance of differences can lead to a more harmonious and productive environment for all.

We can learn about friendship. For example, how to be friendly to others.

Well, from the Jonah Sunday School story, we can learn that running away from our responsibilities is not the right thing to do. Jonah tried to avoid his mission, but it only led to more problems. Also, we can see that God is patient and forgiving. He didn't abandon Jonah even when he was disobedient. And we should also be open to second chances like Jonah was when he was given the opportunity to go to Nineveh after being in the fish. It shows that we can always turn back to the right path.

A major lesson is the value of a supportive environment. In a school where students feel safe to admit when they have an emergency bathroom situation, there will be fewer problems. Also, from the stories of students playing pranks related to this, we learn about respect for the school environment. Peeing in inappropriate places, even as a joke, is disrespectful and can create an unhygienic and unpleasant situation for everyone. So, respect for the school as a community space is an important lesson.

One main lesson is the importance of perseverance. Missionaries in these stories often face many difficulties but keep going. For example, when trying to convert a resistant community, they don't give up easily.

From this story, we learn not to be greedy like Jacob was for the birthright. We should be content with what we have. Also, the story emphasizes the power of forgiveness. Eventually, Jacob and Esau reconciled. This shows that we should forgive those who wrong us, just as Esau forgave Jacob. And finally, it shows the significance of God's guidance. Jacob's life was guided by God's hand despite his wrongdoings, which means we should also seek God's will in our lives.

One lesson is about God's presence. Just as He was present in the burning bush, He is always with us. Another is about answering God's call like Moses did, even if it seems difficult.

We can learn the value of community. In many back to school homily stories, there are examples of students coming together after a homily message about unity.

The story of Gilgamesh teaches us about the pursuit of immortality and the acceptance of mortality. It also shows the importance of friendship and the consequences of hubris.

One lesson could be the power of courage and faith. Esther showed great bravery in the face of adversity.
