Last year I was put into a lower-level math class at school. The reason I was in this class had

  21   to do with my intelligence. I am blind. The school   22   that it would be better for me to learn at a lower level because it takes me a great deal longer to complete school tasks.

The only problem with being in this class was that I was   23   by "at-risk" students, who did not perform well in school and were   24   in trouble with the school and the law. On Monday mornings, the kids talked about what they had done during the past   25  . I tried not to listen, but it was almost   26   not to. I heard things in that classroom that shocked me.   27

I now see that praying is such a   37   act. When I pray for those around me, it also   38  

my life, and it changes my understanding of others. I realized God's blessings enabled me to see the world through   39   eyes. The prayers I said for others   40   to help me the most.
