Grades are getting low, the teens are getting high. That 12 year old is pregnant and her parents wonder why. A 1st grader is swearing, a 3rd grader has been raped. Just take a look around you, isn’t the system great? Who isn’t faded these days, teens are sending nudes, kids are getting beaten, the teachers see the bruises. No calls for help are spoken, teens are smoking weed, young girls are cutting, this isn’t what we need. The marks of taunt and yelling, parents are divorced. That 14 year old is drinking beer, this can’t get any worse. A little girl has killed herself, nobody seems to care. Another kid has been expelled for a stupid dare. But it needs to change. Our world is officially broken. It’s time to take a stand, your thoughts need to be spoken.
This needs to get 1 million notes seriously
more.
I know this isn’t a popular opinion, but we all need the love of Jesus. All of us. He loves everyone: sluts, prostitutes, homosexuals, drug addicts, etc. So let Him love you and turn your heart and your life around.

For the past year or so, #God has been putting #dreams in my #heart about a #women’s #ministry geared specifically toward teenage girls. He has also been preparing me and shaping me for this ministry. #2012 was a tough year: tons of #heartbreak, #betrayal, and #pain. But all of it has helped strengthen my #faith and #character. Today, my youth pastor told me I should start a ministry for teenage girls. I started crying because he didn’t know that that’s actually my dream. ❤ God is not a faithless god. He wants your dreams to come true, as long as you commit all of it to Him. So, thank You, Lord. And thank you, @ernieloveskoloa. You have no idea how much that comment meant to me. :) #Proverbs 16:3 #Bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #praise #thanks #strength #endurance #hope #love #Godismyvictory

Dear Broken,
I don’t know you. I don’t know why you’re hurting. But I do know that I love you and I want to pray for you.
You can like this post, reblog it, or even send an ask if you want me to pray for you. No judgement. Just love. :)

When we are completely beaten down, we are tempted to turn from #God, give up, and #quit trusting him. When your situation seems #hopeless, determine that no matter how bad things become you will continue to #pray. God will hear your #prayer, and He will #rescue you. When others #reject us, we need God most. Don’t turn from your most #faithful #friend. 💛❤ #Psalm 69:13 #Bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #perseverance #endurance #encouraging #peace #joy #strength #faith #hope #love

I don’t know about you, but it is so #humbling to know that #God loves us so much that He would send His Son to live a lowly #human #life just so that we could have a #Lord and #Savior, so that we could have #redemption. Especially because we definitely do not deserve to be so greatly loved. Thank You, Father. ❤Merry #Christmas to you and your’s. 😊 #John 3:16 #Bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #merrychristmas #Jesus #joy #peace #faith #hope #love

“Your #beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a #gentle and quiet #spirit, which is of great worth in #God’s sight.” | Although I do like #hair and #makeup and #fashion, I try to always remember that true beauty comes from having a #beautiful #heart that loves God. Even on my worst day, His love never fails to make me feel my most beautiful. ❤😊 #1Peter 3:3-4 #strength #iamloved #iamsecond #Bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #ootd #whatiwore #wiw #faith #hope #love

Have faith that no matter the circumstances, #God’s #timing is perfect and He knows what He’s doing. And no matter what we try to do, or how #swift, #strong, #wise, or #brilliant we are, God’s timing is all that matters. 💛💙 #Ecclesiastes 9:11 #Bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #strength #trust #faith #hope #love #perfect #blessed

We #danced our #hearts out tonight in the Lights on Rice Street #Parade! Great job, everyone! It was tough, but it was #amazing and so worth it. Most importantly, it was all to #glorify #God. ❤😄 #Psalm 149:3 “Let them #praise His name with #dancing.” #instacollage #forHim #merrychristmas #Jesus #worship #joy #joyfulnoise #faith #hope #love #blessed #luckyilivehawaii #kauai #hawaii @leapandarawr @jeizel808 @jerrskizz @_calcee @heyyyitsjada

Read through #Esther and at the beginning, you will wonder why this mere #Jewish girl had to go to so much trouble to win the favor of the king. But then you see that she was made “for such a time as this”, to #save her people as #queen. #God’s strategies don’t always make sense at first. However, He has written your #story and who knows if you were made for such a time as this? | Esther 4:14 #Bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #trust #authorofmylife #forsuchatimeasthis #strategy #faith #hope #love

Happy Thanksgiving! I am so #thankful for #God’s #grace because I know I don’t deserve it, but He is a God of #love and #mercy who has #saved me anyway. Thank You, Heavenly Father. ❤ What is something you’re thankful for? #Ephesians 2:8-10 #bible #Scripture #dailyverse #verseoftheday #happy #thanksgiving #faith #hope #blessed #prayer
