Well Jesus hurts every time you cut too...so if that motivates you, know He cares about you way more than anyone in the world!!!

Well, that phrase doesn't apply to you...b/c you are never alone! He is always with you sweetie!! ALWAYS!!! His hands were scarred for YOU, so that you wouldn't have to have the scars. He paid the price to be with you!!! I hope someday you promise yourself not only to not cut for at least a month, but to never cut again!!!!

I know you can do it Jasmine!! Like Owen said above, turn to Jesus right away. He wants you to turn to Him with your hurts, depression, and disappointments. He loves you SO MUCH! Its only through Him we can overcome the things of this world!!! John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Agreeing with you Astra!!!!

SO GLAD YOUR HERE!!!! WELCOME BACK!!!! WE MISSED YOU SO MUCH!!!

Jasmine~as I was praying for you last night, I wondered if there was a specific event or something that happened to trigger you to return to cutting? Sometimes looking at things that trigger us, can help us to keep a better guard the next time the situation comes around..helping to handle it differently. Just some thoughts...

What about your mom, does she know about this?

You have cut yourself 60 times in the past few weeks???? Jasmine, I am really concerned sweetie!! Does your mom have any idea that the cutting is taking place?? If she doesn't, I really want you to consider talking to her about this. Please, please, please, pray about it if you haven't told her already......

Im so sorry Jasmine...I was totally off on my perspective. I pray that you will find your value and identity in Christ. In Him we are complete. I am praying for you sweetheart! I will pray for deliverance, as well as God putting the right people in your path to minister to you, love you, and show how important you are to the Father.

I am in agreement with Cholette Jasmine. Please know I am praying as well!! I want to share some of my thoughts with you. Deep in our hearts we know that someone must pay a penalty when a sin is committed. I personally feel that the deep rooted reason most people cut is to punish oneself for their sins. I believe the root is condemnation. In addition to us praying, I would suggest looking up every scripture on forgiveness, and meditate on these as much as possible....memorize them. Try thinking on these things, and the COMPLETED work on the cross every time you have bad thoughts about yourself, or your behavior. When you see yourself cloaked in Christ's righteousness, I personally believe your joy will return and the desire to cut yourself will stop. Think about this...Christ died once and for all for all your sins...this work is completed...it was enough...it was more than enough for all your wrong doings for the rest of your life!! When you see what HE did to purchase your righteousness, to give you this free gift, the punishment for all our sins was already taken! So when you punish yourself more by cutting, its basically saying that Jesus' sacrifice wasn't enough (which could not be further from the truth). See His sacrifice as MORE than enough, and bask in His love for you sweetheart!!! Meditate on how much He loves you, and you wont want to hurt yourself anymore!! He gave it ALL for YOU Jasmine!!!! YOU are the APPLE of HIS EYE!!!!

Amen Astra!!! SO happy for you!!! I will be in agreement with you as well for your work!!! Looking forward to the next praise report!!!

Ok, so we (my hubby and I) are a little behind the ball here with technology. He JUST got a smart phone, and I tried activating the site with his phone. I was able to sign in with my name, but I was unable to figure out how to do a search of my posts. I also couldn't find anywhere to be able to post on peoples threads.... ANY help or tips appreciated!!!

Thanks guys for the prayers, I woke up feeling GREAT!!!!

Well the first sunday it was my daughter, the second sunday it was my son, now this sunday I have to miss church again because I have a fever! Please pray for me brothers and sisters. This bug is nasty! Jesus is BIGGER and STRONGER though. Please join in prayer with me!

Hmmmm...I think only of the scripture 'bring your tithes into the storehouse, and try me now in this...if I will not open up the windows of heaven to bless you.....' (Mal 3) Just some thoughts...please pray on them and toss if they dont fit.

Thanks so much to everyone!!! I just love this place!!!!

I LOVE this!!! Thanks Astra!!! AMEN and AMEN!!!
