Don't Fear Man, Love God!

Poem:  


People are just people.
We get afraid of them,
what they'll think and
what they'll say.

Don't worry about it.
They'll accept you as you are...
or they won't.
It's their problem not yours.

It's not that you aren't acceptable,
it's that people aren't accepting.
It's not that you're that you're not lovable enough,
it's that people aren't loving enough.
Your value comes from God, not man.

You're wondering what they're thinking of you...
don't.
They're thinking about themselves,
or what they have to do,
or pizza or whatever.

Be cool
and they'll be cool...
for the most part.
And if they aren't,
pray they have a better day.

I hope the very best for you.  : )

Know that most people really do care
when they know the situation and see their heart.
They may not always show it,
but it is implanted in us by God--
to care for each other.
It is not of ourselves,
it is not evolution,
but it is God.

Praise God for He is the source of life!

Keep your eyes on Him
and all else will fade.
Keep your mind set on things above.
Know that He fights for you!

People are all people and they always will be.
We have so many differences,
but also so many similarities.

Dear God,
thank you for the special beauty
and love that you have put inside us.
Help us to to learn to open up and discover
those things and share them with others.

Thank you God
that you are our healer,
you know our hearts and accept us.

You are what we need.
You are what our soul longs for.
Thank you Lord that when we delight in you,
you give us the desires of our hearts.
I love and praise you Lord.  Amen.

 May God heal you and redeem you and free you.  Amen.

Becoming New...

Good evening y'all, It has been a long day, but it has gone by fast.  Sort of ironic.  I'm sitting at home trying to get some rest from this cold that's clinging to me like a crawfish...??  I know I've been at work too long when I start sounding out words in my head that I see--like the word, Th-i-n-k-ing.  Or I start saying the words that way to adults when they ask me a question. This 2016-17 school year I am a LITERACY TUTOR in AmeriCorps.  It sounds kind of fancy when you put it that way.  I spend my days working one-on-one with about 16 different students on various reading interventions.  We work on short reading passages or blending together small words.  This also includes a lot of paperwork, data entry, prep work, bribing and coaxing via small toys, candy, and cracker items.  It should involve a lot more praise than scolding, more high-fives than head-shaking, and you get the picture.  The work is often rewarding, but also ...

Hi everybody!

Hello everybody! I've never had a blog before.   I have Facebook though.  I don't really know what to do.  If other people can comment on here feel free to ask me about my life  : )   Oh, apparently you guys can comment so that's good.              So this is Jasmine Fairbanks and I am at the Teen Mania Ministry's Honor Academy in Garden Valley, Texas which a Christian leadership school/ministry internship, basically, yet it's a lot more.  It's sort of like being on a mission trip because we are working toward spreading the gospel, but we stay in one place and reach people through the phones, etc.  I call for the Minneapolis Acquire the Fire youth conference.  Our event is on Feb. 4th & 5th, which is in like 2 weeks!  I'm excited, I get to go and help!  We'll help set up the event and with registration, etc.  This weekend is also the Housto...

Today I played soccer!!!

So today was a really good day!  I went to church, played soccer, knit a little bit, read some of my Bible, worked on some stuff, etc.  Often I worry about what I have to do instead of actually taking time to enjoy life and other people, so it was really good to do that today. I need to learn to live where I'm at. I realized that w/ playing soccer and not worrying about anything for a while was the way things should be and it was really beautiful. I was kind of the goalie and I saw the others playing, carefree and running around under the big blue sky with the sun shining down on them in the warm weather. It was such evidence of a loving God.  The sunshine looked like the rays from a smiling father beaming down on his beloved children.   God is showing me that life is good, I am blessed, He is faithful, and I can trust Him.  It's always when I give me time away or follow God into doing something that I get back so much more, like the P...
