hi everyone this is Michael's mom Donnie
I asked Micah could I tell a small
portion of his story well when Michael
first went to school he wasn't as
advanced as some of the other kids in
the class because some of them have been
to a head start in pre-k but I wasn't
able to do that for him so when he got
in kindergarten the kindergarten teacher
really treated him bad because he wasn't
as advanced student helper used to call
me home and tell me the things some of
the things that this teacher was doing
to him so finally the kindergarten
teacher suggested that I put him in
special classes so as he went through
school I felt like at the time I made
the right decision as he went through
school
but when he started getting in middle
school I started paying attention to her
more and so me and him sat down one day
and I was teaching him division well he
learned the division but when he went
back to school and the teacher saw how
he did it
um she got upset and even called a
family meeting on me because she said
that I wasn't supposed to teach him that
she set out the way that he was supposed
to learn it so I didn't agree with it
but looking back you know I wish I had
to looked at things different but as
Michael went on into High School
sometimes people would pick at him and
stuff because he was still in those
classes and then sometimes he would even
ask me can he stay home a day and so I
told him he could stay home as many days
but he couldn't go over the limit
and so that's what he did so I can only
imagine how hard that was for him in
school
because when you label it goes a long
way
and even people used to pick at him
about his voice because how deep it was
and you know just all kind of mean
things but
when I look now
at the young man that he is I am so
proud of him y'all he was in those
classes but when I listened to how he
teach and learn
the Bible it just blows my mind that
word he did yesterday you guys was
awesome and how he teach is how he's
been taught I have spent a lot of time
teaching
my kids the Bible
and one thing I told all of them is that
if they don't care about what no one
else think of them
then I want them to care about what the
heavenly father think of them
hey you guys I just want to thank y'all
for supporting him and the whole family
because y'all been awesome and like I
said this young man
thought that he would never do this
but look at God I give the father all
the glory because he's the one making
things happen you know what we went
through
it took us through all this so that we
could learn because when we didn't have
a home and all that stuff we was in a
position to listen better you know he
had our focus and so like I said
to every believer and anybody that look
at the videos and don't know the father
I strongly suggest get to know one wanna
one-on-one relationship with him
everybody that's teaching the word
is wonderful but when you start reading
and learning the word yourself
it's nothing like it and the first step
to having a relationship with the
fathers you gotta want him there you
gotta want him in your life
because when you get to that point it
makes all the difference in the world
and like I said
Michael went through school with all
those challenges
but
the father making it good for his good
and I just want to say thank y'all for
supporting him thank y'all for listening
to him because like I said it was a time
that I knew he didn't never believed in
a million years he could learn the Bible
like he do so don't never count your
children out never or family member
anybody don't count them out because
the father can change some things he
could do some things that
nobody else can and one last thing when
he graduated from school he was the last
person to graduate that night out of all
of Greenville North Carolina and the
surrounding schools his school was the
last one that graduated
and when he walked across that stage he
got a standing ovation
and it was amazing and one of his
friends even said to him they wasn't
doing that for you they were so forever
it don't matter it's the fact that he
got it I know the father gonna do that
when he make it to Heaven you know
because
he's changed him and he's still learning
he still want to share and I just asked
y'all will y'all please help us to
support him to keep doing this because
it's nothing like it in Jesus name I do
pray amen
