Please be patient with all of the editing and rabbit trails. There was a lot to cover in a small bit of time.)

Brittany continues her personal story. After her parent's divorce, her father remarries in hopes that his new wife will be a great mother to his daughter. Things go well until the first family trip. The new step-mother leaves Brittany feeling more like Cinderella and less like a person worthy of love. Brittany's challenges with her own mentally disordered mother become more complicated. Battles of rejection, illusions of inadequacy, and loss of the close bond with her father drive her into a dark depression by age 12. But God never left her side! No matter what your dark valley looks like, no matter how hopeless your situation seems, the pain is never wasted. God creates beautiful things from damaged people every day. Don't forget to shine your light this week! Your story could be the key to someone else's salvation!
