Emphasis Preaching Journal

Kathy was a quiet girl who mostly stayed in the background of whatever was going on at the time. She wasn't unpopular, but her shyness tended to make people overlook her. In a crowd, she could be almost invisible. Kathy worked hard at school, taking on each subject, each assignment as a challenge that had to be conquered. She was a good student with marks in the A-/B+ range. She was assigned the clarinet in music class, and though this was her first exposure to music, she practiced diligently and became a solid member of the school band.
