Guess what...?

God created the heavens and the earth!!! 
 In the beginning...He did it.
En el precipio, Dios creo el cielo y la tierra. Genesis 1:1  
He made me, He made you!  


Look around and you will see.  This world filled with beauty was created for good and not for harm.  It was a beautiful present to someone very loved...us!  So rejoice, again I say rejoice!  Although we have taken our present and given it quite a bit of damage, there is still good to be found, joy, and love to be had.  Although we have committed many wrongs, the Creator of all is waiting for us with open arms to forgive us and take us back to Himself.  He has made a way to pay for all of our mistakes by sending His own Son Jesus Christ who (being an exact representation of His Father) willingly died on the cross in our place.  


Remember that this Christmas season.  It's not about what we want, but about what we need!  We need a savior--look around you at the hurt that fills the world in so many places.  We need Jesus Christ!  Say a thank you to God this Christmas for all He has done.  He has what you need and He waits for you.  Seek Him!  : D      


Just felt like preaching the Gospel :)  
Have a blessed day!
You are loved!

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...
