I know from personal experience just how damaging this can be, because these assaults on our developing emotions, thinking patterns and self-identity can take a long time to unpick. Many young people can give testimony to the thought of &#8220;wanting it all to end&#8221; and tragically some amazing, unique beautiful ones do not survive.<\/p>\n<p>I wrote this song about fifteen years back, when I was in a daily battle inside my own heart and mind with self-hatred. As I gradually accepted God&#8217;s unconditional love for me, I slowly discovered that I was able to love myself. In this new place I was able to face the roots of my despair, find counselling and support, and move towards &#8220;life&#8221;. My hope in creating this film is that with God&#8217;s help I can breathe &#8220;tomorrow&#8221; into the lives of those who continually feel they can&#8217;t face another day.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow with love, tomorrow with promise, tomorrow with freedom, tomorrow without fear, tomorrow in relationship, tomorrow with vision, tomorrow with future!\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Isaiah%2061:1-3\">Heaven longs to embrace those in despair<\/a>. If you are in this place &#8211; begin by finding someone you can confide in &#8211; whether this be a friend, family member or useful helpline.\u00a0 Then carry on taking small steps each day. I have been there. And I found that even the most desolate ground in our lives can be restored with Christ as His remarkable redeeming love settles within our souls.<\/p>\n<p>I hope that this testimony song will be a channel for Christ&#8217;s light and hope to help restore those in deep despair:-<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q-DjZelhH7o?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read the lyrics to this song and download the film in HD by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prayerscapes.com\/FilmPages\/tomorrow_came.html\">following this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sadly there are many in the world who suffer great adversity, grief, hardship or abuse in their childhood.
