Through the Mess of This Life

"Only God can turn 

  mess into message,

  trial into triumph,

  test into testimony,

  & victim into victory."

Do you know who you are? 
      You are a beautiful child of God.
      You are loved.
Do you know what you deserve?
      You deserve to be loved.
      You deserve to be treated with the utmost respect.
Do you know what you DON'T deserve?
      You don't deserve to be called names.
      You don't deserve to be harassed.

     
      I am Lauren Drew. My initials may be LD, but the LD with the bad reputation is not who I am. I am a beautiful and loved child of God and I deserve to be loved and treated with the utmost respect. I do not deserve to be called names or harassed. Rumors do not define me.

     Why people chose to harass me, of all people, is beyond my understanding. But I do know who I am and God knows who I am, and that's all that matters. I think God chose me for this challenge because He knows I can handle it with His help.

I am strong.

I am beautiful.

I am loved.
