“People all around me all the time would say, ‘Oh, you’re such an amazing singer,’ and that became my identity in a lot of ways…I’m the singer.”
When singer-songwriter Tori Kelly was signed to a record label at the age of 12, it felt like she was being given the world. Instead what followed was series of disappointments, broken promises, and a laundry list of things she was told she needed to change about her look or her personality in order to be a success.
“I was this singer…if I failed, then people would be disappointed.”
Tori found herself knocking on closed door after closed door, feeling increasingly discouraged. But, when she stepped away from noise and judgment of the industry, and took some time by herself in quiet, she found something she didn’t expect: her voice.
“Those moments in my bedroom, when it was just me and my notebook, that’s when I really got into songwriting more…It was this slow, building process that wasn’t forced. There was no ‘you’ve gotta try this, and you’ve gotta be this, and you’ve gotta have this different personality. I didn’t have to change myself, I could just be myself. ”
Today, Tori has recorded two full length albums, performed sold out tours and tv appearances, and been nominated for a Grammy. She sat down with I Am Second to share her story and a few things she wishes she could tell the 12 year old girl she used to be.
She’s always been the real deal. I have so much respect for her
Leeeroy 😍
She has such an innocent and authentic glow about her. I know she isn’t perfect but there’s just a light that exudes from her. ❤
This is why I love Tori so much. She doesn’t try to be anybody but herself. It was heart wrenching to watch her talk to her younger self because you could feel the pain in her voice but she came through on the other side stronger than ever. She inspires me so much and I know that God has a plan for me. I want to be a singer and inspire others like Tori and spread the word of Jesus.
Ellie Urgo Thank you so much for this beautiful prayer. 🙏💕
Angel Agbettor I appreciate you so much ♥️
Amen ❤
What a beautiful testimony you have! Thank you so much for sharing Jesus!
Beautiful. ❤
I can relate so well. I have heard the 'you're too shy', 'you're too quiet' all my life. In todays society it seems like you have to be bubbly or extroverted to 'make it'. We introverts have a lot more within us than some people might think:)
Yesss!
Leontine van vliet 🙌
Exactly !!
Very well put. :) I'm constantly told that I'm too shy or reserved like it's a bad thing. And sometimes I get down on myself like maybe there's something wrong with me but there's not. God made me this way & I think that's pretty cool.
people who think that have never put a puzzle together.
Our generation is blessed to have someone like you in this time doing what you do, dreaming, singing and showing that truly we can do all things through Christ. Thank you Tori!
When her smile broke and a tear fell, my screen got blurry cause,
...I’m bawling..let’s just say that lol.
This was so beautiful. I’ve had the same ambitions, and at one point in my life, when I was losing hope, kept doubting my abilities, I put all my faith and trust to the Lord.
A weight was off my shoulders, and love took over.
This was so beautiful and it hit home. 💜
Thank you Tori for being different. Much love and respect.
AmaZane Channel Zane! 🤗
AmaZane Channel I found you again 😂
*balling
Patring Paciente No, it actually is “bawling” lol
Godsprincess171 it was a reference to her tweet when she tweeted something about 'balling' about a tom hanks movie. i dont remember if it was Sully or Captain Philips. :)
Tori Kelly, comparing herself to any other singer, shocks me. She’s so unique. But we all do. I pray she never becomes more famous than she is. That she will cherish her uniqueness.
Kristina Lewis YOUR RIGHT, un breakable Smile, stay incouraged, Marie Reyes Loves You
I pray that she does become more famous, but that she remains grounded .
Ajay Cbaby The more famous she becomes the more these evil record producers will try to mold her into something she’s not. I’ve seen it too many times. They’ll use her to make a certain amount of money and coerce her into all manner of wickedness..I pray she never sells out, and I’ll know she didn’t because she’ll never be more famous than she is. Levels of fame have a high price tag on them.
Amen, only God knows what's best for her and now is up to her.
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love.
2 Peter 1 5-7
she was comparing personalities i think, not skils.
I'm that quiet girl you spoke to, who wonders whether I'll have to change my personality to be noticed. Thank you.
me too!
Me three.
Same, i feel you sis
You are awesome, @vihan Damaris! :-) I am sure, God is proud of you! 😘
I think these videos are important to show young people that even famous people that seem to have it all struggle with doubt, fear, loneliness, etc. Unfortunately, the younger generations are not believing in God and thinking religion is “outdated”.
CrayCrayIRL it's not just believing in religion its what of you think about God. Placing God in your heart is the main way to find happiness. Doing all the stuff that's out of the norm of what the entertainment business today does not necessarily provides everyone happiness. There even people who can stand living in L.A and move elsewhere like George Clooney who lives in England and I don't blame him. And there plenty of others who constantly criticize of what the music industry today becomes today which promote dumbass trends that not only poison the youth, but the adults also do it too.
Even men of this era are actually coming out stating it's very hard to find a decent woman these days that have the beautiful Angelic nature such as Tori and the same goes for those women who are trying to find a good honest man that doesn't place his own business out there(relationship, sex, anything dumb that is committed in the past), and wants to live life with someone who appreciate them and be happy with them. No one wants be with someone or a group of people who live and follow trends all the time because its boring and nearly all of them think arrogant and ignorant.
CrayCrayIRL not all of us
They get to start fresh and not get weary by apathy.
Yeah, I'm glad I'm not really "in my generation". Not following the trends, but keeping God first before all my desires and I see how everything is lining up perfectly accordingly to His will, because I realized that mine wasn't working! So I thank God that by His Grace that He kept me in a place where I don't think it's out dated! 🙌 But refreshing and STILL KNEW! Because His blood STILL FLOWS AND WORKS! AMEN! 🙏🙌 I don't speak from what other people say, pastors or anything but what I've experienced myself from God! Thank You O God and my Lord, my Savior, Jesus the Christ! 🙌🙏❤️❤️😊😊
I’m in this generation and I try to spread the gospel as much as possible. Like if somebody is going through something or stuff. And I don’t like that only like 2 of my friends are really dedicated to God. I love talking about God and going to church and knowing I have somebody to talk to all the time.
What separates Tori Kelly from other singers is her faith. I don't find her boring. I love just the way she is. Just be who You are! You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalms 139:14). I believe God will open the door for you that no one else can shut. The first time I heard you, I felt that you have the annointing of God. God bless!
Be strong in your faith and dont ever compromise. The things of this world are fleeting, the world will love you one minute, forget about you the next. Only the love of Jesus is everlasting. Remember Jesus said "If you deny me to others, I will deny you before my Father." Dont ever be ashamed to profess your faith and belief in Jesus. When you are around others who dont believe, dont let them pressure you into denying Jesus. Your eternal soul is at risk. I'm proud of you Tory, your strength and your decision to place your belief in God and let Him guide you is an inspiration.
Her album "Hiding Place" really gave me the inspiration to go back to God. Praise God for your life Miss Tori Kelly. I downloaded your album on Spotify and keep on listening to it. God bless your soul!
No I'm not crying, you are!! 😭😍
You said it well.
May the Lord shower you with his blessings.
My heart.. I started supporting from when we were both 12.. So I remember every stage of this. Look at what an amazing woman & artist she has become.
Nearly started to tear up when tori did 😭
Stfu
"but the lord stood by me and gave me strength"
- 2 Timothy 4:17
Tori Kelly is quality
That last line, "through Jesus Christ I can just be myself" made me start crying. I feel like thats all anyone really wants in life and I'm proud of Tori for being the person SHE wants to be.Not the person society wanted to conform her into.
I'm so glad she didn't change herself to sell. We never consider how ppl think someone so talented doesn't have "the right personality" that's messed up... also I relate to her better because of this. God is good.
She has the power through her voice to touch and bring peoples spirits closer to God through worship. Psalms 42 by her was an amazing song and it helped me.
I'm so glad that Tori Kelly did this video. I have been listening to her music for a few years now and I have looked up to her a lot. I am so happy that she gets to sing about her faith more and share it with the world. She is an inspiration for me in every way, and I am glad God is using her now 💛
Me too
Amen!!!
Dear "too shy", "too quiet"... know that you're priceless. You get to listen attentively to yourself and to others. And whenever you act, it's from deep inside your heart. Don't loose it please. You're precious !
The scripture at the end is golden!!! Our hearts should be 100% sold out to Jesus. Thanks Tori😍😍
💯💯 You said it beautifully 🙌🏽❣
Simply beautiful and inspiring! Wow!
this raw emotion was so incredible to see. I am so proud of you, Tori. God has blessed you.
She's too amazing
References God in nearly every single sentence
"Through Christ I can just be myself, surrounded by his love ❤"
Tori you are a blessing to many around the world..You are so inspiring especially to young christian women out there and I am one of them...God bless you..
#Iam second blog thank you..
I absolutely love her sweet spirit. Keep being a vessel, Tori. It’s so encouraging to see someone in the “Hollywood” world being an example for Christ. This is so needed! That’s what makes me love her even more 💖
just prayed for you on this new journey you are on. Love you, tori.
I feel like Tori was speaking to me. I also sing and have dreams to grace the Big stages one day. But my insecurities that I’m too shy, too chill, too reserved, often surface and it’s hard for me to keep my focus away from those labels. Tori made me feel less alone and that if she was able to overcome it then I am more than capable too.
I can totally relate to what you said about personality and comparison. I've always been a shy person and have struggled with feelings of inadequacy. Thank you for sharing your story! You are an inspiration 🖤
Literally crying 💔 always have been the "too shy, too quiet" girl that always doesn't belong. And a couple of times have compared myself to others. Tori is my total inspiration and this clip really helped a lot of people to feel accepted. God is always the answer 😭🙏😇
I identify so much with Tori, not only with her music, but how she is as a person. It’s so counterculture to the world - to see someone so chill & comfortable in who God’s made her to be, and loving it and wanting to STAY that way. I’m truly inspired by her example.
You made me cry 😭I am so proud of her 😭
Inès Ferrando she’s awesome right? 😊 lol
Hello btw
I love how she is always trying to be her authentic self.
Woww she is very pure and Ive never seen her cry. God is definitely going to take her far.
It's funny. I knew I liked Tori from the moment I found out about her; I loved her voice, her music, her sweet and down-to-earth personality,... But there was just always something particularly beautiful about her that I couldn't place. Something that drew me to her and made me appreciate her as an artist that much more.
Well, now I know what that thing was.
God bless you, Tori. You're an incredible woman.
Am happy to be an introvert thank God he created me this way for years have prayed that God should change me cause I thought something was wrong with me cause my elder sisters used tell me to be social when you go to college you won't make it with the way you you are antisocial and because of that I was not comfortable with myself but yesterday 15 may 2020 God liberated me am so happy I just feel like telling anyone that I am introvert
I love Tori so much...I truly thank God for her. I identify with her a lot because as a more introverted person I've always felt that I had to be more outgoing in order to be liked. Especially now that I'm in highschool I've struggled so much with my identity...I never want to be seen as boring so I put on a mask for people because I feel like it's what they want me to be. I sometimes really hate myself for being so quiet, and I really wish I could be like some of my friends. But it's not who God created me to be. Her testimony really helped me to see that I'm allowed to be myself. I'm allowed to embrace me for just being me. Thank you Tori❤
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing Tori and thanks for posting this. I love the white chair films.
This is just another of many reasons why I love and adore you so much Tori! As a Christian myself I've always struggled to find my purpose and identity in Christ and I really needed this! All my life ive never really had friends or felt like I had a purpose and I was all alone. In high school I used to sit by myself at lunch in the senior cafeteria which was basically my own special room where me and a few other people considered undesirable or rejects and uncool sat alone and even they didnt want me to sit by them I was avoided like the plague like a leper like the least of these some kind of untouchable as people walked by me and stared silently laughing and judging me and people making fun of me for sitting by myself. I spent 6 years/5 and a half semesters worth at Eastern Michigan University getting my Bachelors Degree taking much longer than the intended 4 years and getting tens of thousands of dollars in debt and I spent the majority of my college career all alone in my room never going out and doing anything since I didnt have friends, and every time I went out and tried to make friends it ended in disaster and nothing came of it. My last year at EMU from Fall September 2016 to April 2017 I finally thought I found friends that loved and,cared about me in the EMU Athletes, especially the gymnasts, but I had plent of friends on the football, Baseball, softball, track and field, soccer, swim and dive and most of the teams as well and for a short while, for the first in a very long time, I was happy and felt loved and cared for. Unfortunately, one by one they started hurting betraying blocking and abandoning me one by one and then on January 21st, 2018, the worst day of my life, a bunch of them betrayed me and got me in trouble with the law and banned from campus and made me look like a bad guy that did something wrong and did horrible things to me and abandoned blocked hurt betrayed gave up on left and forsook me stopped caring and trying to help me and be my friend and made it clear they wanted nothing to do with me because I'm a burden and they broke their promise to always love and care about me and be my friend. They tossed me aside like garbage, no, worse than garbage, because at least garbage is properly taken out and handled with care, I was just thrown away and tossed aside until I was ripped all open like my heart and everything spilled out with no one to clean out the mess. I had never been more so hurt and broken and hopeless and dead inside in my life. For over the past half year ive been more depressed and suicidal and lost than ive ever been in my life. I feel like an unlovable burden and worthless piece of crap and waste of space that no one will ever love and care for and be friends with and be sad and care and miss me when I die, I feel like I AM that leper, that untouchable they avoid like the plague, the least of these and God's mistake, and dont really see the point of going on anymore, because I dont have friends that love and care about me that would be sad and care and miss me when I die! 😢🔫💀💔
But you give me hope! I know you'll never see and read this and maybe I'm wrong and you wouldnt care but I truly think youre different than all the other celebrities and fake people and fake friends out there and I relate a lot to what you said in your testimony and hope to God if I'm still here I meet you one day maybe even hangout and be friends and pray together, hope suicide isnt unforgivable and I can't lose and give up my salvation hope the reformed/calvinists are right but if I'm still here I'd love to just meet you and thank you for being a positive uplifting inspiration and influence that really helped me find hope in a tight spot and for being a light to the world and the salt of the Earth like Jesus commanded us to. I hope and pray to God I can meet you one day soon and perhaps finally make a friend and not be such an unlovable burden to everyone and mistake and blight and parasitic cancer to this world anymore one day soon.
I saw this testimony and loved this video and wish there was a "LOVE" button on here! ❤ You spoke to me personally I wish I had people that loved me for who I am too but when you said you didnt sell out for the industry like other people or change who you really were for other people and what they wanted it gave me hope you are just fine just the way you are and I saw your Christian music and LOVE it and this is from a Christian that doesn't like most Christian music your songs are so good and God is using you to touch so many millions of lives and souls in such a great positive loving caring kingdom building way for HIS glory which the fact that you focus on HIM and his Glory and not yours quoting scripture saying even if you lost all your fame, money, adoration, love, and glory and just had Jesus youd be alright your identity is in him inspires me and leaves me awestruck and amazed youre my hero Tori my dearly beloved sister in Christ and don't ever change for ANYONE just keep being amazing wonderful beautiful you because you're an amazingly awesome wonderful beautiful person inside and out and dont ever change for anyone or ever ler anyone ever tell you otherwise because you are perfect just the way you are and you deserve to know it take care much love God Bless and I really hope and pray I can meet you and maybe even be your friend one day very soon, if you want to, of course! 😃👍❤💯🙏

Tori ..people must've been deaf for not really hearing your voice ....your voice just melts me everytime ...whatever melody you make ..it just makes me warm and soft hearted.😭
This is so beautiful and encouraging to hear! God bless you Tori and I’m happy for you and all Gods done in your life and Music!
Crying. I remember watching Tori from her first vid and immediately know that her soul was with Jesus. That she offered something that other musicians couldn't. Every single time she puts out music I am honored to have heard it
Hey Tori, if you happen to read this..I want to thank you because I have been going through a very difficult time in my life. I heard your rendition of so will I 100 billion times. I hear your soul when you sing. Your heartfelt songs bring healing because you are in the Holy Spirit. Do not give up Tori, and put Jesus Christ first. I see how Hollywood changes good/humble people into something else. Thanks again for being brave in Christ and spreading his words. You do make a huge difference in this world for the better through your talents and loving heart. GOD Bless you and your family.
I love Tori Kelly. And the reserved and quiet personality of her. God Bless you
Very thankful to God for your story, that you stayed who you are in Christ, and your complete faith and surrender. Inspired by your songs, now also by what He has helped you through. God bless you. I needed this
I appreciate you, Tori: your testimony and story are an inspiration, and my 2-year old daughter absolutely loves your presence and your voice, and I know that I can let her listen to you without any worry because you are such a wholesome and great inspiration for her to look up to.
my heart I can't watch her cry like that ❤❤
I am not a little girl anymore (I am 22 yrs old) but I was so encouraged by Tori's story. I have never heard that feeling be expressed so perfectly but I am at that spot where I am trusting that all the insecurities I feel now are temporary and I have faith that God is building me into the woman I am supposed to be!
Crying 😭😭😭😭 TORI I LOVE YOU.
A year and a half ago my wife Alannah had a meltdown, never came home again. 7.5 years married, what she left was a letter in our mail stating it was over. No call, no conversation just a note. My world & heart shattered, but in that pain I turned to God, found comfort in your worship music. Id like to thank you for giving me the strength, peace I needed. If I could ask one thing, it would be for prayers for my unsaved beautiful wife, Alannah. She’s a beautiful soul with a gaping heart bc she refuses to submit to the Lord, therefore continues to struggle and conform to what the world has to offer.
God bless you, your beautiful sense of humility 😊 Ciry
I always go back to when she gives advice to her 12 year old self and just pretend that's she's talking directly to me. It rly hits me. She's such a great influence.
This is why Tori is my fave. I seriously wish I could like this a million times.
Thank you so so much for sharing this. This video means so much to me right now. So many similarities to my life and Tori is just another proof of how God works, how much he loves his children who seek him and how enriching life can become when you put your life into his hands and start pursuing your real purpose. Amen. Love this so much.
Georgie Music same here!!
I've been waiting for this episode for sooo looonggg
lm legit crying now !!! like literally CRYING bcz i can RELATE to her sooo sooo dang much, like she's telling my story. I love her, she's such an inspiration, i feel like ive been knowing her for so long. so many things ive learned from her, her journey, her songs, lyrics, her love and faith to Jesus she still believes in HIM despite all the hard times, failures, pains shes been going through. love u Tori.
I cried a river.. Such a beautiful storie and such a beautiful example of what means to wait on God !! She's such a inspiration !! ❤️
I just cried so hard, I love u so much tori! ✨💕
Oh my gosh!! I literally screamed when I saw this. Thank you Tori, love you!!
I’m crying 😭 I love you Tori ❤️
This is why many people loved her, like me because she didn't want to be anybody else and be herself that is why she is so pure, and unique. I love you tori!!!!!!
I love this woman. I got hooked on her December 2013 while watching her perform “Dear No One” on Ellen. So proud of who she’s becoming and the fact that she’s true to herself and what she believes. So happy for her life journey and her marriage!💕🙌🏾✨
If you were more like everyone else, you'd be less than who God made you to be. Keep shining for Him.
Watching this barley- a few years later, but this is speaking to me so much rn. I'm 22 and all my life i've been told "you're too quiet" or "loosen up a bit", but when i try, I feel like i'm not being true to myself and to God. I didn't used to care, but it started to get to me and I started to compare myself to other people, not just externally, but I started to compare myself internally and that's the hardest thing. This morning I asked God to remind me of my identity in him, so this video was perfect for the season that i'm in.
Torii , you're an inspiration to all Christian teen girls ! We love you ❤🙏
I feel this on a personal level. I'm also more on the shy side but my dream is to sing. Tori is one of my biggest inspirations 🤩
This is beautiful! She deserves so much and more❤️
We All Love You So Much Toti ❤💘 Keep On Going In Jesus And Never Give Up...
I’ve followed tori since her covers on UA-cam not knowing she was a Christian. Her beautiful voice always amazed me. Now that she’s come out with a gospel album I’m so proud of all that she’s accomplished and feel like she’s my friend lol. I relate to her so much and LOVED the verse she used.
“I didn’t have to change myself, just be myself”... this one statement encompasses the entire message behind what Tori expressed in this video. My daughter and I are huge fans of yours Tori! Thank you for being such a great inspiration to my daughter and all of the other youth as well as adults who have always been labeled as not good enough for simply being themselves. Much love #thebulletfam
Tori Kelly is a true leader. May God continue to cover you and bless you and your family.
This is such an important interview. I see it being the hope for many young women. It has been for me. Thank you❤️
Tori is such a high-class girl. Love her!
I’m so proud you are allowing God to use you during this time. I definitely need to be comfortable with who God made me to be. I have always felt like something is wrong with me but I started not to believe the lies anymore. I am choosing to believe only what God says about me
I loved her since I first heard her sing. Not only because she has a beutiful voice, but also because I felt exactly like her, in every line she wrote. How to be noted i this world, while you don't want to surrender to it? And the answer is: just don't be afraid to be yourself.
She is an inspiration as a person and as a christian for me! I am so grateful for her life ❤
Trinity God loves you and thank you!!!
Tori kelly. You are an inspiration. Not only in music but in faith. God has used your life to glorify Him! Your passion became your whole life when you surrendered. Such an incredibly story. I love you tori. God bless you!!! ❤️
I love how she never gave up and she always believed in herself. She has become someone to look up to and someone you can relate all of your feelings to, and I love that.
With every level of fame, and every musical and professional decision she makes... she finds even deeper who she is in Christ. Every day as a Christian is like this. It filters you. It is grounded within her very lyrics, and into her documented story of musicianship
"I'd rather make em yawn than be a pawn on your chess board"
I pray that she does become more and more famous, as God wills. Because she's a person God has gifted to reach the lost and, just like in this video, she can show the wonder of life with Him.
He is her reason now. And all her sacrifices of the past, for Him, shall be an inerasable imprint.
She is a woman now, no longer a child, and praise God that she has endured through to stay the course.
God bless this woman and her purpose
I see why i have a connection with her songs... she was just like me, but she didn't give up. Godbless you Tori..
Tori you are not just an amazing singer. You are an amazing person, you have inspired me to do so much. Your music has me up for days. U are in it for the true love of music, no crap just love. I respect you so much. Hiding Place is so beautiful, I love it so much. Go Tori
Woooow i wish there was a LOVE button!! Tori Kelly is my absolute favorite artist!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Alissa Legaspi me too 😭💗
People tell you you're not pretty enough. But you're very pretty. I think it's very inspiring and brave for someone famous to profess love for Christ and for you to sing for God now, it's a witness for others to see as well that God is not a joke, His love is real. I pray He will continue to use you as a tool to minister to those who have yet to know the gospel and for Him to give you strength in every circumstances you go through in your career. love love love youuu
If you haven't seen Sing, I recommend giving it a watch. It is a very sweet, underated family movie. Tori's performance in it is so good!
This message speaks volumes!! ✊🏽❤️
❤️Beautiful soul with such humility and transparency! I love the new black & white soulful gospel videos she’s putting out! I cried with her at that silent moment in this, “I Am Second film!” I’m so blessed to see her in one!
We can't have it all but at the same time nobody knows how special each one of us are and what we really can do but US ! Tori you're a Wonder Woman and a Big Inspiration ! And Thank God for the pain because (and like she said in one of her songs "Never alone ") "Pain is always beautiful" and with hard working; you'll end up doing miracles! Have a great day everyone ! 💙
Man I love this lady so much. So talented and beautiful ! Please don’t ever change and always seek God in your toughest and hardest times. Jesus heals and he delivers. Through Him, we’re free. Glory to God and His son. Grateful and thankful everyday for his love and guidance. Tori’s such an inspiration. She’s the example of being a famous celebrity as well as God’s child. May he bless you and bless us all🙏🏼
What an incredible person. We all appreciate you.
Truly Beautiful. Lovely to hear that she doesn't need all the success to still lover herself and God
Wow I was already a fan, after watching this video I became a huge fan of Tori Kelly! MAN !!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your message Tori. It means a lot to know that someone that I look up to has had similar struggles. Introverts have the loudest minds - we may not say much, but we walk with such a quiet confidence and speak with such beautiful wisdom that you won't know what hit you :)
FlashOfFireflies she’s awesome right😊
Hello by the way lol
i love you tori!!! you break all kinds of stereotypes in this industry and your voice mean a lot to people. ❤️ always remember you’re a blessing from God loveyou hope you see this ❤️
This is so encouraging. I love this so much
I cried when she cried. 😢 When she said “one day you’re gonna grow into your own skin,” it really hit me hard because I grew up with a rare skin rash and it was very hard living with it.
ThQ for sharing that with us Gina
THIS thank you Tori for actually being honest and relatable! Yes, Phil 4:13 is the goal but we don't always believe it fully! But we try and work towards it!!! This first person to be real and say that no I haven't figured it all out yet or mastered it but I'm trying, I've come a long way and I'm still going!!
Love you Tori...this spoke to me because for 8 years of my life I tried to change who God made me and follow other people and it brought me pain.....I went back to who God made me and the joy of Christ came back...the peace of God is in my life again.
Tori speaks to me so hard. I was also in the same situation as she was before. People hated me because I was just being real especially with being autistic. My own closed ones will never understand where I stand for but I maintained my realness to myself.
Oh my goodness, I haven't heard ANYBODY speak about their insecurities of having a "shy/reserved/quiet/boring" personality. It's always about appearance. This is exactly me as a child, and even till now. I can relate to this 100%. Thank you Tori, and thank you Lord.
