about

My name is Fawn and I have been married for 2 1/2 years. I am a Christian, and like to think that I am a good listener. I hope to go back to college this year and eventually earn a my masters degree in psychology. It has been a dream of mine for many years now to be in an occupation that I can help people and receive the peace that will come with knowing that I am doing something important with my life. My husband and I lived in Virginia for a year and a half and we are looking forward to getting back there after I finish my education. I love dogs, music, books, travel and photography. Most of my time is spent with my church family, my immediate family and my wonderful husband.



Be nice and I will be nice. Be rude and I will be rude. Ask my opinion and that is what you will get. I am open minded and honest and I give and expect respect.



I am check my inbox daily so send me a question and I promise (excluding personal illness or family emergency) that I will respond quickly. Take care and I hope to hear from you soon!


advice

i've been really doubting Jesus Christ these past few days. i believed in Jesus before and i trust that i'll believe in him once again, i just need some motivation and i need to be reminded again of his grace and glory. please help me turn my life back to God.

There are a few things that I remind myself of if/when I find myself doubting my Savior or worrying about things that are truely in His hands. I hope these things help you.



He knew exactly what you would do in your life, the kind of person you would be, the trials that you would face and the measures of faith that you would claim and He created you anyway.


Every time that you have gotten sick, it has been God that has healed you for He is the great physician, not man.


He promised us that He would never leave us nor forsake us, despite all of the times that we hurt Him, His name or turn our backs on His blessings. He will always be there to carry you.


He is still there and will always be there, even if no one belives in Him.


He has proven His love in the most amazing definite way that He could have, His son died for our sins. God loves us enough to have done that for us. Jesus Christ loves us enough to do that for us.


Even if you were the only sinner in the world, Jesus would have died on the cross to save just you.


These things are very humbling to think about yet they are all true and are all refocusing points that we need in our Christian walk at times. It is tough to always do the right thing, to always have 100% faith, to always be the shining example that we should be. It is tough because we lean on ourselves, in our human flesh to be that way. If you rely COMPLETELY on God, He will give you the strength that you need. He will always make sure that you have every thing that you need. He will always carry you, always be with you, always listen to you, always love you. If we keep those things in our minds, and keep our lives turned to always seek God's face, living a Christian life will become simple. Trust in God. Give your entire life over to Him. Do not expect yourself to be perfect. You can't be. You are human and will mess up. Ask for forgiveness when you do and you have a clean slate. Above all, remember His love, His forever love that He will have for you for eternity.


The lyrics that I have listed below are to a wonderful song by The Crabb Family that I listen to whenever I feel doubt beginning to creep in. If you can find it, listen to it. If you cannot find it, just read the lyrics. They give us hope. I hope that everything works out for you. Please contact me anytime if I can be of help. God bless you!



Through The Fire - The Crabb Family

So many times I've questioned certain circumstances
things I could not understand
many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision
then my frustration gets so out of hand
its then I am reminded I've never been forsaken
I've never had to stand the test alone
as I look at all the victories the spirit rises up in me
and its through the fire my weakness is made strong

chorus:
He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
and the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered our victories without fighting
but He said help would always come in time
just remember when your standing in the valley of decision
and the adversary says give in
just hold on, our Lord will show up
and He will take you through the fire again

bridge:
I know within myself that I would surely perish
but if I trust the hand of God, He'll shield the flames again, again

repeat chorus

I give up. I dont deserve gods love. I am not worthy enough for it. He gives me a gift and i dont use it. I fail one class, i am a porn addict. I give up i dont deserve god anymore. I dont even deserve to live, i, i really dont care. i am not good enough. I am not as loyal to him as i should be. i dont deserve him at all. im done. Please give advice or a way to end it all

I do not want to sound preachy but I do want to help you so I am going to be very honest. There are 2 very important things that the Bible teaches us that you need to remember. Jesus died on the cross and rose again for the sins of the world because He loved us. That means that even if you were the only person in the world He would have died just for you. He loves YOU just as much as He loves everyone else. We are all equal in the eyes of the Lord. Secondly, God knew everything about you, even the number of hairs on your head before He created you. That means that He knew everything that you would say, do or mean to someone else before He created you. If you were not good enough for God's love, He would not have created you at all. Everyone makes mistakes because we are human, born sinful, thinking with our flesh instead of our soul. There is nothing, absoloutely nothing that you can do that would ever make God stop loving you. If you want to start doing better in school and leave behind all of the fleshly addictions that are troubling you pray and ask God to help you. Find a good church and get rooted in it. Study God's word. If you are still a sinner, pray and ask Jesus into your heart. He never promised us that life would be easy but He did promise us that He would never leave us nor forsake us. Remember that God is always there, He always loves you and He always wants to help you carry your burdens. Forever His love is there.

There are 2 wonderful songs that are sung a lot in our church that I want you to find and listen to when your toubles seem too much for you to bear.

Lyrics:

So many times i've questioned certain circumstances
Or things I could not understand
Many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision
And my frustration gets so out of hand
Its then I am reminded I've never been forsaken
I've never had to stand the test alone
As I look at all the victories
The spirit rises up in me
And its through the fire my weakness is made strong

Chorus:
He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
And the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered our victories without fighting
But He said help would always come in time
Just remember when your standing in the valley of decision
And the adversary says give in
Just hold on, our Lord will show up
And He will take you through the fire again

Bridge:
I know within myself that I would surely perish
But if I trust the hand of God, He'll shield the flames again, again

Repeat Chorus


Praise His Name - Jeff and Sheri Easter

When you're up against a wall
And your mountain seems so tall
And you realize that life's not always fair
You can run away and hide
Let the old man decide
Or you can change your circumstances with a prayer

Chorus:
When everything falls apart Praise His Name
When you have a broke heart
Raise your hands and say
Lord You're all I need
You're everything to me
And He'll take the pain away
When it seems you're all alone Praise His Name
When you feel you can't go on
Just raise your hands and say
Greater is He that is within me
And You can praise the hurt away
If you'll just praise His name

You can overcome by the blood of the Lamb
And by the word of your testimony
You'll see the darkness go
As your faith begins to grow
You're not alone so how can you be lonely

Repeat Chorus:
When everything falls apart Praise His Name
When you have a broke heart
Raise your hands and say
Lord You're all I need
You're everything to me
And He'll take the pain away
When it seems you're all alone Praise His Name
When you feel you can't go on
Just raise your hands and say
Greater is He that is within me
And You can praise the hurt away
If you'll just praise His name


If you are not saved but want to be, pray to God, tell Him that you know that you are a sinner and that you are sorry for your sins. Tell Him that you believe that Jesus died on the cross and rose again for the sins of the whole world. Ask Him to forgive you for your sins. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and to be your Saviour. If you pray that and really believe it you are heaven bound.

If you are saved, start praying to God and asking Him to guide your life. Find a church that you feel comfortable at, get rooted and read the word of God. God will richly bless your life if you lean on Him. Trust in Him. Contact me anytime if you want to talk, need a friend or would just like someone to pray for you. Take care of yourself and keep your chin up.
