God, You can free me forever from this destructive personality trait. Ben read his Bible in the bathroom, and prayed. Ben kept seeing the image of his friends‟ face. Ben locked himself in his bathroom, and prayed for God‟s forgiveness regarding his lack of reading the Bible, his anger, and his lack of working, and for worrying about what he would wear. If his friend hadn‟t worn a belt with a thick metal buckle, he could‟ve died. He was ashamed and couldn‟t bear to face anyone. Ben ran as fast as he could to his house. Finally, in an unlikely fit of rage, Ben tried to stab his friend with a knife. His friend kept turning the knob away from Ben‟s favorite station.

One day, in high school, Ben and a friend were listening to a radio. He tried to follow the crowd, and he spent so much time hanging out with friends late at night that he didn‟t care about school. His grades dropped, and he wasn‟t thinking about school as much. When Ben got to high school, he started worrying less and less about school, and more about what he wore, and who he hung out with. Ben‟s grades shot up, and now the same people who used to make fun of him were coming to him for help on homework. His grades started improving tremendously, and at school, people used to make fun of him for his poor grades. This system went incredibly well for Ben. Carson later made them memorize the times table.

Carson wanted her kids to improve their knowledge, instead of watching TV so much. She turned off the TV, and from then on, the Carson kids were only allowed to watch 3 shows a week, and at the end of every week, Curtis and Ben were to bring to their mom a written book report on 2 different books of their choice. In her head, she was scared scared that the kids might end up having only a 3rd grade education. Ben protested later to the principle, „It was almost an accident! I would never have hit him if I remembered the lock was in my hand!‟ Sonya Carson saw her two kids spending small time on homework, and so much time on the TV. One day, when a boy was taunting Ben for a wrong answer in English class, Ben suddenly smashed his lock from his locker into the boy‟s head. And to make things worse for Ben, people made fun of him for his grades. Finally back in Detroit, Ben‟s grades were bad in school. Even though it seemed impossible that a disobedient boy such as Ben Carson could become an exceedingly gifted Neurosurgeon who did what seemed impossible, after Ben offered his life up to God, he went on to accomplish amazing things. Ben Carson had no idea how much God had in store for him through his trials. Finally, the Carson‟s became so poor, they had to rent their tiny house in Detroit, and stay with some relatives in Boston. There were so many things Ben wanted very badly, such as toys and candy. To a young boy, this was almost too much. Ben heard the phrase, „We just don‟t have the money, Bennie‟ from his mother many times. Sonya Carson, Ben‟s mother, had only one job: cleaning people‟s houses. When Ben finally overcame his grief, he realized something after a long period of time. His mother told him his father was not going to be living with the Carson family anymore. He could not grasp what his mother Sonya Carson had just said.
