There are places that you are supposed to go.

There are things that you are supposed to do.

And there are people that you are supposed to meet.

I was done with the life that I was living.

I was done with the way people were treating me.

I was done with being bullied.

I was done with not being good enough.

I was done with feeling alone.

I was just done.

I didnt want to be here anymore.

By that, I mean that I wanted to leave this world for good.

And the next morning, he called me and we both cried over the phone.

Long story short, I did not proceed to end my life.

And I actually mean it.THANK GODfor not allowing me to go through with my plan.

He was there, but I simply couldnt see Him.

Growing up, I felt under pressure.

I was pressured to do more.

I was pressured to be more.

I felt like I was not good enough.

I felt like whatever I did, it didnt matter.

If I die, will it matter?

Would people even notice if I were gone?

I am writing this to you right now because the answer to those questions is:YES!

Not only that, but all the people who dont know you yet will miss you too.

The truth is, you were put on this earth for a purpose.

There is something that only you’re free to bring to our world.

There is a gift that God has given you and only you.

There are places that you are supposed to go.

There are things that you are supposed to do.

And there are people that you are supposed to meet.

Needless to say, Ive been crying a lot lately.

There is a saying that goes like this:Be the person you needed when you were young.

I am proud to say that I have become that person.

I am not the teenager who was crying out for help anymore.

I have now become the one who comes to help.

And all that wouldnt have happened if I had gone through with my plans.

And not just that, but He also has a specific purpose for you.

People might not be aware of that plan.

People might not see you as someone that can make a change.

Not only will God change your life, but He will also use you to make a change.

So hang in there!

So he got up and went to his father.

Luke 15:20 (NIV)

He hears your cries.

You are the light of the world.A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl.

So dont let your light die.
