THE FIRST LIFE WE SAVED! Glory to GOD!!

I am so happy and so glad that I found who God wanted me to be! Now I'm so sure that God has called me to be A Helping Hand to everyone in the world!

A friend of mine is bullied at school everyday. People joke with her, punch her, tear her apart... She's just 11 and she already thought about suicide! But everyday I sent her messages, encouraging words and posted something new that would help her on the Facebook page. This Saturday, I was in our church when she arrived. When she passed by me, she smiled and gave me a paper. When I looked at it, it was saying "THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!" I was very touched inside. I opened it and she wrote there " 'You are beautiful, you are loved, you are special' (Something told her once and told her to never forget it) This was a phrase that made me stronger!" While reading those things, tears started falling from my eyes. I looked up and thank God for everything He did for me, for her. Because HE was the one that gave me all the strength I needed to help my friend!

That was the most blessed day of my life, the day when I saved a life!

Drugs lead to these kind of stuff...

I mean, I already knew that this happened all around the world, but I never thought about seeing a friend worried because of it... Her friend is in the hospital because he's got an overdose... Drug consume! Please pray for him, he's really bad and only God can save his life! Also pray for his family and friends to stay strong. They really need it. But that boy needs your prays even more! Ask God to save his life and lead him in the right way now. :)
May God bless you all

Pray for them

I wanna ask you all to pray for Cassidy Holtzman's family. This young girl was hit by a car a couple weeks ago and passed away on November 1. I'm especially asking you this favour because Cassidy was great friends with Leslie. We all feel sorry for what happened... :'(

Cassidy Holtzman, 15 years old, gone on November 1, Leslie's friend. Pray for her, please!

Besides that, I want to ask you to pray for all the soldiers that are right now in missions of peace all around the world. I remind of that because one of them is my cousin! I want him to be safe by God's angels!

Thank you all and may God bless you
Sonia

10 best songs about bullying

Do you scream "Help me"? Do you hear cries for help? Is your wish helping? There is a way to fight against bullying, the way I use: MUSIC. Sing, play or write songs about it! That is the first step to the fight if you're a music lover! But if you don't know any songs about bullying or related to it, it's time to know. According to you music taste, I will present here the 10 best songs about bullying and/or related to it (drugs, violence, rejection...) that I have ever heard! There is a little description of each one for you to know if it's inside of your kind of music. According to it, choose a song and listen! But if you're like me, I'm sure you will enjoy them all!

1. Hero by Superchick --> This is a rock song about bullying and it's my favourite. In it, you can see the point of view of a bullied girl, a bullied boy and the bully. There, the reasons of the acts are presented with the message that everybody can be a hero: you just have to choose!
2. Don't Laugh At Me by Mark Wills --> Completely the opposite of the last song, this one has a country style. It shows everyone hurting speaking their feelings. There you will find a little boy and girl, a teenage mother, a kid who's always the last, and more, all of them hurt and joked by other just because of little problems in their lives that bullies make bigger: using glasses or braces, losing someone in the family... The message is nothing but the chorus: "Don't laugh at me, don't call me names, don't get your pleasure from my pain. In God's eyes we're all the same! Someday we'll all have perfect wings. Don't laugh at me!"
3. When She Cries by Britt Nicole --> Here is a Pop song of one of my favourite singers. This song shows the life of a teenage girl who is bullied, but that nobody knows. She cries, she's desperate, she cuts herself, her life is nothing but an enormous sea of pain. She hides from the world and she feels that nobody is there for her. She never smiles, even on her birthday! But God is there for her and He will find a way to end that pain in her life, making the revenge that bullies deserve.
4. Mean by Taylor Swift --> Another country song that shows the worldwide problem called bullying. There you can see how a victim feels, what they think about the bullies, but there is a message of hope in it because victims are encouraged to believe in a better day when their dreams will come true... Because those who have hurt them are nothing but mean and those hurts they made will end up healing!
5. Miss Invisible by Marie Digby --> This is a very beautiful Pop song played with the piano showing how a girl feels about exclusion and how she tried to fit in. Her life at school is just sitting under the bleachers, eating alone and pretending she is busy as an excuse of being alone. And all the singer wants is those who joke to look at "miss always invisible" and realize what they are doing.
6. Stole by Kelly Rowland --> In this R'n'B song, you can find some people whose lives were stole. Not only because of bullying but also because of other things that ruined their lives. Like in the end of the music video says, "think before you act"!
7. You're Not Alone --> This is a very beautiful song with an unknown artist. If you want to hear it, click here. This is a bullied little girl saying what she feels, wondering if she should tell what she has been going through. She feels like a prisoner, with no freedom. But the message is that she is also hurt, not only you! As she says, "you're not alone, just like you, I'm hurting too".
8. Who's Laughing Now by Jessie J --> This is Jessie J's best kind of Hip-Pop song. The song starts with the little girl telling her mother what she suffers at school. But then she becomes someone bigger, and suddenly, all the girls that hurt her in the past are running behind her, "proud" of her. But of course, the girl didn't let them use her again, because they deserved that revenge! She was hurt by them, now they are despised by her.
9. Invisible by Skylar Grey --> This is a great Pop song about someone who tries everything to be noticed by others but even that way she is still invisible. She takes pills to be thin, she dyes her hair, she does everything, but she is still invisible. Only in her total loneliness she feels like a queen, she feels as it was real, but reality isn't that. The message on this song is that it's not worth it to try to be someone else because we end up invisible too. The best is to be ourselves and laugh at other's mean words!
10. Hope For The Hopeless by A Fine Frenzy --> An amazing alternative song that shows that even when we are in our hardest moments, there is always hope. We can feel that the world is falling at our feet, but God will always provide a way to send rain away and bring a sunny day to your life! All you have to do is believe because "there's hope for the hopeless"!

Those are some of my favourite songs and if actually you know more songs that can be related to bullying don't hesitate on telling!
Keep on fighting! Use these songs to spread the word!
