“What do I have to offer? I am told that I have gifts and talents, but what are they? Everyone else can do something, but what can I do? I feel so useless.”

By the grace of God I was never successful; but for 132 Americans each day these thoughts overtake them and they succeed at one of the greatest tragedies known to man: suicide

It was easier for me to say I was fine, I didn’t need help, and to say I forgive than to verbalize what had happened. The day I chose to tell my mom what had gone on, was the day I chose to let it hurt. And it hurt like hell. But it was worth it!

GOD SAVED MY LIFE by leading me to a few young guys at my new church…I soon realized that it was because they knew who they were and they knew where their worth came from. They knew they were sons, sons of the living God, their true Father.

Do you take good care of yourself? If you’re like most teens, self-care isn’t at the top of your mind. After all, your parents seem to take charge of your health care and encourage decisions that protect your well-being.

I have battled the mountain of believing in myself and listening to these destructive words that engulf my mind.
