But I’ve been through way too much in my life and come out a stronger person to reject the idea that God is going to abandon me.

I know I have definitely been struggling with this lately. I know it can be tough to remember this at times. God will never lead you somewhere that His grace will not sustain you.

Whether you are struggling with doubt, fear, worry, sickness, abuse, or heartache, do your best to remember that God has your back. Darkness creeps in and the world can seem like it is falling apart at times. But no matter how hard life gets, I have to remember to “look up child” and know that God is watching over me always. I am a daughter of God and I know He will never abandon me. There are many times in life when it seems like God is nowhere there are times when I’ve asked God where He is. I am learning that God will ALWAYS be there for me. This song is a great reminder that no matter how hard life gets, God is always there to get us through it. This grimly misguided message disregards the complexities of mental health, and it's an intensely perilous narrative to push, particularly to an audience whose understanding of these issues is often still forming.The first time I heard this song, I immediately fell in love with it. Hannah's tapes are a manifesto of blame, effectively placing the responsibility of her life's tragic end onto others. The most heart-wrenching aspect of "13 Reasons Why" is its presentation of suicide as a form of revenge or retribution, a deeply misguided message for impressionable young minds grappling with their own emotional turmoil. And we don't think that showing that it hurts to cut yourself deters anyone, it just makes her seem more like a strong, determined woman of power who manages to overcome the pain. It makes suicide sound worthwhile, even if at a high cost. This is presenting suicide as your best option of dealing with a problematic life.

"If you're alive and noone cares, they ignore you and hurt you then suicide will make everyone listen to what you have to say and the people who were mean to you will feel really ashamed and stop being mean." It took us a while to realise how the worst part of it was how it presented suicide as empowerment. Lauren Daigle - Look Up Child Lyrics and Tracklist Genius Album Look Up Child Lauren Daigle Released SeptemLook Up Child Tracklist 1 Still Rolling Stones Lyrics. If I battle looks and questions everyday, what will I receive once I am seen with a LGBTQA+ spoken word poet? The constant fear runs through my head as every Pride event comes together and the word is spread. I fear that I will be marked as an outcast and be ostracized from the student body. I fear that after a huge event like a Drag Show, that I will face micro-aggressions or even hateful comments. Frequently, Christian rap falls somewhere between old school hip-hop and the rap of the late Lauren. Is my Pride shirt too much? Are my shorts too long? Are my clothes too baggy? Is my hair too short? Does my tie look too masculine? Just like any other member of the LGBTQA+ I am very excited for Pride week, but I will admit I am very nervous for the reactions that will come from it. The song You Say is from her album Look Up Child. On a Jesuit, catholic campus, I always worry about other’s reactions to just my daily appearance. Even though we have worked tirelessly attempting to make Pride week the best show of queer culture, all of us will admit to being worried about the reaction. Sometimes your day consists of battling stares, questions and public restrooms, so just imagine the reaction of the week of pure Pride and demonstrating the wonderful aspects of gayness. Going to a Jesuit University is not easy for anyone who is a part of the LGBTQA+ community.
