WOW! Missstarways, I'm so happy for you that your life is turned around! God never gives up on anyone and no one's a lost cause! Praise You, Jesus!!!!!!!!!!
I was "her" once. I ran from everything I knew was right, and did everything wrong! I put God in the backseat and I did the driving. But God never gave up on me. he took me back, and now He's in the driver's seat! I have never been happier than I am now!
I always have to fight the urge to scream "no!" When she turns away from the church or when the people treat her so harshly. In a way I'm her. In a way, I say. People at my church (though kind) all look at me differently and think I'm on the verge of satanism cause I wear alot of black. I'm darker, yes, but I love God with all my heart. I've been kicked out (and bullied out) of several churches before because of it.
I'm so sorry. Well, just to let you know... God created you to be who you are for a reason and he also appreciates his work. It's too bad you didn't go to my church in 2003. I was testing this church and I was wearing dark eye make-up and the pastor welcomed me with open arms.
Yes i love GOD i love JESUS i love my CHURCH and i now do everything i can to help others and get them to come to church with me :) Just keep tryin don give up! "Go your way; behold i send you out as lambs among wolves" Luke 10:3
WOW that is amazing so true alot of people want to change and need help especially teenagers lol trust me i am 18 and i have made some not so great decisions and turned away from god, but he didn give up on me, he just had to wait for life to knock me to my knees to where i would have no choice but to turn to him. Now im a "jesus freak, holy roller, bible thumper" lol aint high school great?
Casting Crown songs really get me. Haven't we all made mistakes-large and small, they all hurt. And in life shouldn't the less wounded help the more wounded. Everyone really just wants a little hope, joy and peace in this world. I need to share that with others more. And to be thankful for those that have been there for me when I needed it most. Why tear others down? Don't we all do a good enough job of that ourselves? I need to remember to be the salt and not the acid of the earth.
your title says it has embed, but you have embed disabled by request, so you might change that, I was trying to find one to share with a online group and used this one without checking cause it said with embed on it, so that was a bummer that I wasn't able to share it after all.
Okay, I have to admit, I love this video, love the song. It made me stop and think, that's for sure. Buuut....I watched the one that filmgirl06 made first and....this one doesn't have the emotional depth that I found in that one.
Either way, the message remains the same, the strength behind it is unchanging, and lessons should (and have been) learned. Thanks for posting this vid!
It's so funny how I ran to men, parties and alcohol to fill up that empty place that was put there especially and only to be filled with the love of Christ Jesus. Pray to be the tool, the vessel that God uses to save men and women like this. You may be the only Jesus they see in their entire life until they themselves get to know Christ. You may be saving a life literally. You don't know how much a phone call means until you hear the testimony years later. Praise be to God. Thanx!
hey I understand, not the same thing but I got played by a guy when I was 16. It's hard especially when other people are gonna think bad of you cuz of their lies. At the time i was so upset and hurt, I couldn't see beyond tomorrow. now im 20 and happy and that seems like a bad dream that was forever ago. don't lose hope, you will get through high school and find there is an amazing, hard, fun life filled with breathtaking moments. Make sure you find your smile, then keep it! :)
Thanks for replying to me,country 194. I forgot that I made a comment on the casting crowns video,it was 2 months ago. I do believe in God and pray every day and night. I don't think I have to go to churh to have the faith that I have. lol
I love This song soooo much it's depressing but very true. We pass by people soo much that need help. We were sent here to help and change the world! THats a big task and we can't do it by our selfs
This is one of my favorite songs. I've been a Christian and church-goer all my life, but sometimes I feel ignored in my own church. I have gone to the same church for 9 years, but people barely talk to me in youth service. I go to a small group once a week that consits of people the same age and gender as me, and they talk to me there. I don't really feel welcome in my own youth group :(
that sometimes happens why dont u go to them and ask them if u could hang with them thats how i becames friends my best friends for that fact i use to be an outcast in the youth group just be presectante (sp?) it helped me
not everybody who goes to church is filled with Christ's love...pray for divine friendship and company and God will here your desire for companionship in the church. You may be surprised at how lonely and empty all those other people in your youth group may be. Middle school behaviour doesn't come form God...it comes from the enemy to discourage and bitter you towards God.
This is a good song even though it's sad. Yes I think we need to pay more attention to new people especially when they're trying to find a way to meet others. Some of them might be looking for help while others are looking for a new group of friends. We dont know why they come and visit, but we need to welcome them into our little group of friends. After all you might be one person in this great big world but to one person you just might be an answer to help them get by in their own world.
Every1Rox: Please let your sister know she isn't alone and please tell her not to give up. No one can save her from herself until she really wants the help. I have friends that are in her situation and I pray that some day they'll see the light and realize that alcohol and drugs are not the solution to any of their problems. I've tried helping my friends, but sometimes they have to hit rock bottom and suffer to realize what's going on. I'll pray for your sister tho and hopefully she gets better.
this song is amazing. it just shows that we need to look out for new people coming into our lives. this song written by a youth pastor because a new girl came to his youth group but no one even payed attention to her, so she ended up commiting suicide. so just remember to talk to and make people comfortable when they come into your life.
That's terrible! I mean, crap, I know these folks in the vid are actors and all, but it still makes my heart ache when I watch this. I first saw (and heard) this song in church during worship, and it had a profound effect on all of us. Talk about inviting new people! Our pastor has told all of us, and I mean ALL of us, to be welcoming and open when we have visitors, or, according to the Biblical standard, we're failing. Jesus loved the "unlovable". Are we better than Him?
I love this song and the message that it has its a really good message because there is a lot of people who just judge people with out even knowing them. and if you know that there is something wrong with them then try to help them out.
THIS SONG RELATS TO MY SISTER! SHE'S IS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO COME AND SAFE HER! sHES BEEN dRUNK SHE COME TO CHURCH WITH US JUST BECAUSE MY MOM WANTS HER TO. WHEN MY PASTOR TELLS EVERYONE TO BOW AND PRAY,AND ASKS THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW GOD TO RAISE THEIR HAND SHE RISES HER HAND PUT NEVER DOES ANYTHING! pLEASE PRAY FOR HER WHHILE SHES IN jUVVIE AND IN THE CENTER FOR DRUG ADDICTS! tHANK yoU
the fall background is soo pretty! and i totally agree. when we 1st moved to texas a few months back (from nc) the church we went to was so cold and uncaring. the youth i went to was too caught up in their groups (us four no more) that they couldn't pay attention to the new and scared kids. what a horrible way for my 6th grade bro to start his youth group experience. i cried and stopped wanting to go to church b/c of that. this one's just on the brink of death, but it's better!
Guys really listen to what this song--this group has to say. they are putting out a great sign that says "HEY STOP=WHERE ARE YOU IN LIFE?-IF YOU WERE TO DIE NOW, WHERE WOULD YOU GO? WOULD GOD BE SATISFIED WITH WHAT YOU'VE DONE WITH YOUR LIFE?" sometimes you just need to stop and get away from it all. Are U headed in the right direction? What about your neighbor...
I know how you feel. I've made some bad mistakes in my life too. I tried going to church and everyone looked at me like they were better than me. I don't go anymore.
Hi.I'm a Christian, and the church I go to thankfully doesn't tend to judge people. When a new person comes, they try to make them feel loved and accepted. As a Christian, I hate people's sin, but definately never people. We are all affected by the curse, and none of us has any right to judge anyone. Also, reguardless of how other Christians treat you, I hope you will realize that that is not the example Jesus set for us. He died for our sins, even though none of us deserves it please trust Him.
If there's anyone out there that is going through something like this, I am here for you, and I know exactly how you feel, you have my love and respect, I am not a judge to anyone, its not my right
I know what you all mean, I made some bad mi steaks in my past and the church I went to totally dissowned me. It broke my heart, it was very hard for me to trust people again. Gladly the love I have for God is stronger then the grudge I held against them
It's do sad that this is true! Christians should be the ones that welcome people and love them in hard times! Not just judge them and kick them out for a mistake they've made!
This song is so true so many christians judge people before theyve even met them.
Think about what if Jesus saw us and judged us and didnt go to the cross to pay the price for our sins. Please all christians lets try to stop judging and open our arms to all the lost sheep in the world. JESUS LOVES YOU!
yes i agree wit u klea.... some christians out there think they are better... and very judgemental towards others.... maybe thats why non-believers dislike christians these days.... and are to scarred to change.... wouldnt it be better if we just had open arms towars others just as jesus did.... and have love like him....
Did you see the part where they leave a track along with the tip but don't even look at her....I know this is a video but how many times have we done that...
gosh this song is sooo true. some church-y so called "christians" have a tendency to judge the people who want to get to know God but are having complications. admittedly sometimes i do that to the people who purposely deny Christ. we're all human. we all gotta quit judging and accept each other.
Every so called "Christian" needs to watch this! This is what being a christian needs to be about, not just sitting in church and ignoring everyone that doesn't- They are the people that we need to reach out to and show them love because that's what the world is craving for. I don't like the exclusiveness of christianity but unfortunalty I have become a product of it too.
