TWLOHA

Second:

TWLOHA? Say what?!? To write love on her arms. I seem to promoting things that I like here, so here's another. Check them out: http://www.twloha.com/

This is a really cool group. I don't know their story that well but I know that they started out with some friends who surrounded another girl through her depression, addiction, self-injury and more. They are a testimony to hope. You can read the story under their vision section of their webpage. And my understanding is that as their story started being told they've found that there are a lot of other people in similar circumstances and a lot of people with questions.

I think I have a heart for people who go through these kinds of things. I have a friend, who I love to death, who struggles with cutting and probably a lot of other stuff too. I'm praying for her all the time, that things will get better, that our relationship will grow, and that ultimately she'll want to fall in love with Jesus and follow after him.

Honestly, I wish I knew more people like her. Maybe that sounds bad, almost like I'm wishing that more people were depressed. But that's really not the case. There are already lots of people struggling whether I know them or not, that's reality. There's probably plenty in my very high school. And if I only knew more of the things going on in the lives of people my age, maybe God could use me as a vessel to tell people of the hope and freedom he offers.

I only want the opportunity to listen and love them, to be a friend who will be there. Ooooh... my heart aches.

PS Here's a video a friend of mine got to be a part of making quite a while ago now.



I'm finished for today.

PSS I think Anberlin supports TWLOHA.
