Christians by Maya Angelou

This is probably one of the best poems I've ever read.




Christians - By Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I was just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Jonas Brothers - Dinosaurs - Album Countdown

Even if you don't like the Jonas Brothers (Or don't know who they are) you need to watch this video because it's absolutely hilarious!

"Girl I'm Gonna Miss You" by Milli Vanilli

Thank God It's Summer!!!!

Hi hello!!!

Long time since now blogging action! I'm going to fix that though.

I've been so busy lately! This last quarter of school I was trying to stay on top of my college classes (I passed my career development (lame class) and I got a 4.0 (YAY!) in my Intro to Lit class (Best class ever!!)) and some few high school classes (Which wasn't hard...They were just electives). And now this week we're finishing up Vacation Bible School at my church! I'm a group leader with 5-6 year olds. It's so much fun! I love it! The theme is a Western Town called Tumbleweed Gulch (Where God's Love Changes Everything) and they need water real bad...And Sheriff Andy and Deputy Bonnie are trying to remember that God will take care of them, but the mischievious Cactus Jack is trying to pursuade them into thinking rain will never come and that God isn't going to help them. =D Good times!!! Tomorrow is the last day, which is bittersweet. I'm glad because I'm tired....But I'm sad because I'm having so much fun! And soon after VBS ends tomorrow, my mom, aunt, cousin, and myself are packing up our car and heading over to my grandparents' house! Yay!!! I'm so excited!

Well, sorry this was so short, but I need to get going. Going to Walmart of last minute purchases and then I have to come home and pack...Man...Procrastination City!

Love ya,
Jennifer

"Hold On" by the Jonas Brothers

This is my new favorite song. It made me really happy when I was having a not so great night. (Sorry the quality isn't the greatest, but you get the jist.)

Long time no blog.

Heylo!

The above is Jason Dunn, the lead singer of the band Hawk Nelson....He fought his bike and the bike won.

How is everyone? I'm pretty alright! I've been kinda busy lately. Was dogsitting all this last week. Been busy with school (College is cool. You should try it sometime. =D ). Church stuff (another thing everyone should try.). Thinking alot. Walked Bloomsday. That was interesting. Over 40,000 people participated in Bloomsday and strangely enough, I was only stepped on once! Right on! =P

={D <<< Smiley with a mustache.

-D <<< Smiling cyclops.

The other day I was walking through the campus and I over heard this guy talking to his friends and the only line I caught was, "And my mom was just standing there with her mouth open saying, "You just head butted a goat....And won!"

Yesterday my English professor said (and don't ask me how we got to the topic of Shrek...I have no idea), "I don't like Shrek. I think Shrek brought AIDS to the Earth. Him and ET." ... Just picture an 88 year old professor saying that and you'd laugh too.

the.best.worship.band.ever

First of all, can you tell that I've discovered youtube and have fallen in love? lol.
Second of all, I absolutely adore this band. They played at Dare2Share (which I still have to tell you about. One word, AMAZING! Hopefully I can blog about it soon) and I fell in love in an instant! All of there songs are 100% about Jesus, they write all their own songs, they play their own songs, they all have a great message, great music....And not to mention awesome hair! (they're not bad to look at either!) So please take the time to watch this video, it will completely be worth it!

(You may have to turn your volume up...It has terrible sound and I had to turn my speakers up ALOT, but once you do it's perfect!)
