is this for you?
Jack Nicolson put it brilliantly in the road-trip scene from the 1999 movie As Good As It Gets:
Not everyone has a terrible story to get over. Some people have great stories, pretty stories that take place at lakes with boats and friends and noodle salad. Just no one in this car. But, a lot of people, that's their story. Good times, noodle salad.
If you're riding with me, know that I speak from personal experience. If you can relate, scroll down. More than anything I want you to know, YOU matter to God. IT--whatever it is, matters to God. But no one can make that discovery for you. I count it a blessing to encourage you along the way.

When Monsters Are Real
God, save the little ones. Not everyone is sent to bed with a hug and a story. For many, the monsters are real. Bless the children who will lie down in hunger tonight. They've never slept in princess or super hero pajamas. Embrace adult survivors and impart the courage they need to face their pasts and walk in freedom.
Convict our nation with the reality of what we teach our children by using sex as a marketing tool. Grant discernment to the parents who unknowingly place their children in the hands of unsafe caregivers.
Open our eyes to see the hearts of our children. We ask for and receive the willingness to step out of our comfort zones, and bring hope to those who are bound in despair. Create a path for the fatherless, that they may be made whole in Your presence. Amen.
"It is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish." (Matthew 18:14 NKJV)
