Something To Live For – Victoria Childress Video provided by: I Am Second

At a point in her life, Victoria Childress wore her heart on her sleeve — literally. In a moment of severe pain and desperation, Victoria etched the word “SAD” on her arm with a knife. Growing up in a divided family, she felt as if she had nothing to live for. She would sit in a state of physical and emotional darkness, trying to mask an invisible pain with one that she inflicted upon herself in attempt to take matters into her own hands. Finally, a teacher and physician intervened which led to Victoria signing a contract to commit to live. Through this dark and bottomless pit, she secretly prayed for God to reveal Himself. It wasn’t long after when Victoria found herself face-to-face with the invisible: faith, hope, and love.
