i wanted to bless a girl named jasline. today was her 14th birthday. jasline had been attending my youth group small group on and off for the last two years, as her mother was sort of against the idea of christianity. i had the opportunity to give her guitar lessons this summer and really bonded with her through music and praise. recently, i've begun playing music once a week at a cafe around the corner, and jasline is always there to come support me at my gig. i truly believe god has a deep hold of her, though she says she's not allowed to accept christ yet. tonight during small group i brought some cakes in celebration of her birthday, and handed her a piece of paper on which i had printed lyrics to a song i wrote for her.
I'm not sure what day it was when I first met her smile, but it seems as if
it has been, been a while
She's the girl with the long black hair, sweeping down on the dark sweater she likes to wear
Dark eyes, dark glasses, on a pale skinned face
Energized, super-high on any random day
She likes to dance, she likes to sing
She likes to go crazy and do her own thing
I feel special as she screams out my name
She comes out every week just to here me sing
I wrote this song for her on a special day,
so she'd feel special in a different way
Just wanna let her know that, she was loved
Not just here but more so, from above
Just wanna let you know i pray for you
Hope you grow to be caring in all you do
Don't give up on the things you want to pursue
When you feel alone know God's there, for you
