Hey, so my story so far as a 17 year is one of redemption and healing! I am an unloved, casted out, and forgotten foster kid whos life never was like the kids I grew up with. I turn 18 and age out of foster care in like TWO months and I still have no parents or family to Love. I accepted Christ when I was five, and this year was the turning point of my relationship with Christ. I no longer need ANYONE but God, he is my mother, father...etc! He has redeemed my life for victory and beauty. Things are still lonely sometimes but I love the verse joshua 1:9! It reminds me every day that when it was finished on Calvary I gained a best friend beyond any earthly ones. My story is extreme and painful but through his blood I have healing and I have HOPE!! I am now spreading that hope to friends and fellow teens in my same boat who need love! He turned me into a princess and now I am living out my duties till I reach my kingdom above! Thanks Matthew!!

The story of her life has been one that she hoped would have turned out differently, but she went on to tell me how she has hope in God, and although her story is painful, she is spreading that hope to friends and other teens in her same situation. Broken beginnings can become a beautiful life that tells a story of redemption and helps the world around you. "Is this the end or only the beginning?" Kristen knows the answer to that question.
Do you know someone this song could help?
