So after our first day of visiting some of the high schools around Montego Bay, part of the School Assembly team went to help out the community projects team at Flankers Middle School. We seriously hit the ground running! We teamed up with our paint brushes, buckets of paints and scrappers to get to work. The members of the community team were sooo grateful for our presences. They told us about how they had waited hours and hours before even getting any supplies to begin working on the school, so they felt behind schedule in some ways.
We had no problem jumping in to things and trying our best to paint, sweep and clean as much as we get them caught up. But here’s the thing! The Sunday before most of us from our school assembly team went to church and learned a song by a young boy, about eight year’s old and his even younger sister. The song simply included the lyrics…”I’m walkin’ n talkin’ with my minddd…SET ON JESUS!” y this young boy sang this song with some much pride and joy and absolute conviction that it reminded us that any and all things we do should be done with our mind’s SET ON JESUS!
So while we were out in the blazing heating, working and working and working some more we found is necessary to start singing “We’re painting and sweating with our mind…SET ON JESUS!” and doing this seriously just lifted every one’s spirit’s and made working and sweating a joy! Sounds crazy, yes I know, but just in everything you do…do it with your mind….SET ON JESUS!
Blessings!
