Follow the 'Yellow Brick Road"

Sometimes life is hard, and we mess up but as Exodus 23:2 says, "Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give testimony in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by sliding with the crowd" What do you think this bible verse means? I think it means do not follow the group of people doing the wrong things, it say you should be choosing your own path instead of them choosing it for you.






In the bible Jesus tells the people of this farmer who one day goes out to sow his seeds. The farmer scattered his seeds along the path by accident and the birds came and ate the seeds. Some of the seeds got scattered in rocky places and others in areas with little soil. The ones with little soil sprouted to early and would shrivel and die because they had no roots. Some seeds grew among the thorns and when they grew were choked by them and died. But some seeds fell where the soil was good and thick. Those seeds grew to produce healthy crops that would multiply to make many more. Why do you think Jesus told the people of this parable? I think Jesus told them this because he wanted to tell them how easy it could be to fall off the path. Like the seeds that got carried away, or planted in an area where they could not survive.

Those seeds went the wrong way and look where they ended up, Dead! Yes all of us will eventually die, but some of those seeds, or people, may have died for stupid mistakes. Like taking illegal drugs. Taking drugs like Heroine or Meth is not good for you. If you know that, Why are you taking them? Another one is texting and driving. When you are driving please keep your eyes on the road when you take them off the road your not only endangering your life but the people in the care with you and the people in the cars next to you. You need to pull over if your going to text someone, do not endanger others. One more example would be drinking and driving. If you are to the age where you can drink be carful with how much you drink. Also when or if you and your friends go clubbing or go to a bar assign one person as your "designated driver" that person must not drink, that way when you can't they will drive you home so you won't crash. Those were all examples of "falling off the path". God has made a plan for all of us, so why would you go and do not so smart actions and end up dying. Even when "everyone" else is doing it does not make it smart. If your friends went and jumped off a cliff, would you jump too?


Even though we go away from God and go down our paths God is still there for us. Isaiah 53:6 says, "We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has on him the iniquity of us all." This verse means a lot because it shows that God is always watching out for us and that even when we leave him he is still there, watching over us and protecting us. God is always there for you even when/if you don't think he is there.


Now take this test so you know weather you are ready to follow your path.

Geno--"Bang Bang"

Hey this is Morgan, and I am usually not a huge rap fan but we have this Awesome teacher who assigned three others and I to make a rap on Genetics. So this song is to the tune of "Bang Bang" by Ariana Grande, Jesse Jay, and Nikki Minaj. Heres my Rough draft:

You got a body full a chromosomes

and without them you would die

you have a different genotype

if you didn't you would be alike oh

You've been learning that

Stop, hold up, learn your facts

See anybody could be bad to you,

You need a science to blow your mind, yea

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have it)

Genes genes they make up you (your parents had em)

wait a minute you have Brown hair (ah)

Thats because its dominate (ah)

Genes genes and chromosome (I know you have it)

Genes genes they make up you (your parents had em)

Dominant takes over (ah)

Over the recessive  (Punnent squares)

Punnent squares are when you

can figure out why you look this way

take your parents traits and

is will tell you about your DNA (Oh yeah)

You've got blue eyes

you've got brown eyes

See anybody could be tell you,

You need science to blow your mind

Genes genes and Chromosome (I know you have it)

Genes genes they make up you (you parents have em)

Wait a minute you have blonde hair (ah)

Thats because its recessive (ah)

Genes genes and Chromosomes (I know you have it)

Genes genes their inside of you (your parents had em)

Wait a minute you have dark eyes (ah)

its dominant (ah) (you know what girls? Let me show you how to do)

(Nayas Rap)

G to the E to the N to the O to the uh

T to the Y to the P to the E to the hey

See anybody could be bad to you,

You need science to blow your mind, your mind (okay)

Genes genes and chromosome (I know you have it)

Genes genes their inside you (your parents had em)

Wait a minute you have lights eyes (ah)

Thats because its recessive (ah)

Genes genes and chromosome (I know you have it)

Genes genes inside of you (your parents had em)

Wait a minute let me tell you (ah)

about Genes (ah)

Genes genes and chromosome (I know you have it)

Genes genes inside you (your parents had em)

Yo, I said

genes, genes

genes, genes, genes, genes

genes, genes, genes

genes, genes, genes, genes

Genes genes and chromosome (I know you have it)

Genes genes inside you (your parents had em)

Now you have now learned (ah)

LEARN YOUR FACTS (ah)

Hey Morgans back and after a lot of work, I mean A LOT! We (meaning my squad and I) figured out all of the lyrics and let me tell you, they are Awesome! Well here is the lyrics.

Mitosis occurs in body cell

which is uh, diploid cell

This undergoes cell division

forming two diploid cells (oh)

(You’ve been waiting for that…

Mitosis, process)

Mitosis divides parent cell

Into two identical daughter cells (oh)

(Chorus)

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

wait a minute you have Brown hair (ah)

Thats because its dominate (ah)

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

Dominant takes over (ah)

in Punnett squares

Punnett squares are when you

can figure out your DNA (oh)

take your parents genes and

it will tell you about your Traits (Oh yeah)

Not everybody looks the same because of your DNA

Genotype is inherited genes from your parents. (oh)

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

wait a minute you have Brown hair (ah) q

Thats because its dominate (ah)

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

Dominant takes over (ah)

in Punnett squares

It's guanine and cytosine

It's adenine and thymine

together and get your nucleobases

they work and make proteins

If you mess them up you get a mutation

it happens with an extra chromosome, somewhere in the body

cancer is common, issues within muscles, and genetic disorders happen

It's  me, Mo, Carm, and Lex

Chromosomes in a body

From a producing cell gamete

Gamete is a diploid

dividing to a haploid

4 haploid cells forming

half the number of chromosomes

In the process of meiosis

G-to the E- to the N- to the O

T- to the Y- to the P- to the E-

See anybody could teach you

You need science to blow your mind your mind

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

wait a minute you have Brown hair (ah) q

Thats because its dominate (ah)

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

Dominant takes over (ah)

in Punnett squares

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

Genes genes genes genes genes genes genes genes genes genes genes genes

Genes genes and chromosomes (I know you have em)

Genes genes and chromosomes  (Can’t live without em)

This is the song

About…genes
