You have so much love, compassion, friendship and advice to give. Without going through what you did you wouldn't be who you are.

This life is a refining fire and some people just have more obvious fires that they have to go through. I'm so happy I know you. When I was going through a lot of crap over the last several months I got a blessing that said almost the same thing, that I was going to be able to bless other's lives by sharing what I had been through and how it strengthened me. He really does love us so much and I need those obvious direct reminders of that too. Thanks for sharing this amazing story!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08381203678160598816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108474873034892333.post-68796356096729263032011-10-25T21:39:37.640-07:002011-10-25T21:39:37.640-07:00I admire people who can come from hard circumstanc...I admire people who can come from hard circumstances and not let it hold them back.

Yes, the situations we face and the challenges, trials, abuse, whatever it may be definitely impact us. But we make the choice on whether or not we let those scars heal or if we continually pick at them at let them bleed over and over. I know it is tricky to share messages about God in a public school setting, but I hope that you were able to share a little so that those kids know it was with God's grace and intentional effort on your part to create a better life that put you in the place you are today.<br /><br />Again, awesome.Nurse Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577253497805212683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108474873034892333.post-76634751866068488482011-10-24T07:20:01.274-07:002011-10-24T07:20:01.274-07:00This was in no way too personal.

When you were feeling overwhelmed and like you weren't going to be able to shake the feelings of anger you turned to the Lord in prayer.<br /><br />I am glad you posted this. I needed to read it.
