I understand that many people are dealt a bad hand in life, but for me, my hand was more difficult than most and it left me feeling very alone. I felt like I was living in a fragile and superficial glass house that could easily be shattered by those around me. I felt that I wasn’t supposed to live, but I tried.

I have been depressed and suicidal for as long as I can remember. Using my diabetes to hurt myself became a way of life. The feeling of no self-worth made me become reckless and dangerous to myself. I inflicted pain on myself over and over again. I jumped from family to family for a few years, but no matter where I lived I never felt like I belonged anywhere. I sabotaged the good things that were happening to me. I don’t know why I can’t accept good things for myself. I just don’t feel worthy.

Well of GRACE Ministries will provide a place where many girls like me who feel unwanted, unworthy, and misunderstood can find help. They need the love and support of others to get back the will to live, leading the life they want so badly. They need a place to restore the pieces of their own glass houses.

Please support the people who are working to open this home… we desperately need it in this area. It may even give me another chance at fixing the shattered pieces of my own life.

There is always hope.

UPDATE ON “JENNIFER”
