I’m so blessed by this song! Everytime I hear it I cry! I was molested as a teenager, I loss my only son when I was 23, loss the love of my life, survived two abusive marriages, was homeless with my two daughters, loss my mom and dad before I turned 40 and suffered with depression for 30 years. “I was not built to break” “I picked myself up” I’ve learned to love myself! I can look myself in the mirror and I love who’s looking back! My daughters are grown now. They are beautiful and flourishing! I have my own home, a great job and my dream car! Most of all I have a personal relationship with God and my life continues to get better and greater! “I didn’t know my own strength” Thank you Whitney! There is healing in this song! I miss and love you! ❤️ With God you can survive anything…all things are possible 🌈Jesus loves you! Still listening in 2023

But by the beautiful grace from the God who me, he has delivered me from this hell called mental illness and into a peace that passes ALL understanding.

He may have a rough time holding down a job, but if he can just even hold down something part time, that's better than totally giving up. I wish both of you the best.

Father lord! What did I just watch and listen to? ladies and gentlemen, boys and Girls, Whitney Elizabeth Houston is the The Voice! For those arguing this and comparing her with other great singers, pls point me to any of their live performance that comes close to this. I have watched literally all live shows of Aretha franklin, mariah carey, Celine Dion. They are all incredibly talented and great but you see Whitney Houston, she was without a doubt the greatest, her gift of singing, her voice was and still is inexplicably massive, celestial, immaculate, incomparable and truly a gift. This letter of appreciatiation to you. is heart felt, sincere, emotional and imperative, Dear Whitney, you touched my soul deeply in many ways than 1, and you still do. It was your voice, your music that helped and held me through my childhood sexual abuse and trauma, through those dark years of my life, your music kept my hope alive, telling me I was indeed going to be ok, believing I would Come to the west to see you in person perform, i devoted my secondary school study years to achieving excellence in both my grades and academics just so i could be awarded scholarship to America for my undergrad and grad studies. Hearing the news of ur death Same year I was awarded the scholarship, left me badly struggling and Hurt. I Want you to know that, i am thankful to you, not only for rescuing me, but also for sharing your gift and all of you with us loving us through it all. I am doing well now, living loving and thriving. I will tell my Kids about you, your impact to humanity with your gift, spirit, kindness, tenderness, love and affection. Though I never got to meet you, i am comforted you are with God now. Your legacy is transgenerational, supreme and it lives on. . I will always love you Whitney Elizabeth Houston.

I gave up many times on this Journey of Life and I JESUS CHRIST ranged my doorbell at one of my most crucial times, PERFECT TIMING & I 100% ACCEPTED HIM. I still had many struggles, but I was DETERMINED TO LIVE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST & LOOK AT THE STRENGTH I FOUND! I am on year 8 in the FAITH, BUT THE JOURNEY HAS BEEN LONGER, but MY PEACE IS GREATER WITH HIM✝️ AND RIGHTEOUS OF MY MIND, BODY, SPIRIT THAN IT WAS WITHOUT HIM. I LOVE YOU NIPPY💜🤎🤎💜!! THANK YOU FOR MY SONG!!!😘🙌🏾

Lost touch with my soul I had no where to turn I had no where to go Lost sight of my dream, Thought it would be the end of me I thought I'd never make it through I had no hope to hold on to, I thought I would break I didn't know my own strength And I crashed down, and I tumbled But I did not crumble I got through all the pain I didn't know my own strength Survived my darkest hour My faith kept me alive I picked myself back up Hold my head up high I was not built to break I didn't know my own strength Found hope in my heart, I found the light to life My way out the dark Found all that I need Here inside of me I thought I'd never find my way I thought I'd never lift that weight I thought I would break I didn't know my own strength And I crashed down, and I tumbled But I did not crumble I got through all the pain I didn't know my own strength Survived my darkest hour My faith kept me alive I picked myself back up Hold my head up high I was not built to break I didn't know my own strength There were so many times I Wondered how I'd get through the night I Thought took all I could take I didn't know my own strength And I crashed down, and I tumbled But I did not crumble I got through all the pain I didn't know my own strength Survived my darkest hour My faith kept me alive I picked myself back up Hold my head up high I was not built to break I didn't know my own strength I was not built to break I got to know my own strength Stephie Pahlavi Zan

[@manuelasedlak6068]

Whitney ist die Beste Sängerin für immer, Ihre Stimme ist phänomenal 💓💓💓

[@carameldiva5131]

This song connects so deeply to me right now. I watched my mom deteriorate and die(10-28-21) in a 4 month span. Then lost my daddy in the blink of an eye almost 2 years to the day that my mom did (10-23-23). They literally my best friends. I've been shunned by my family for showing grace and compassion to my step-mother of over 40 years. Got evicted from my home of 7 years and now my only vehicle is breaking down. I'm bending but not broken.

This song so powerful. God i just want to thank you for choosing me. I once suffered alcoholism I depended on it to live. The moment i surrendered to God my life change entirely. A smile that once was camouflaged has been long been removed. Currently five yesrs into this new journey and its worth it. To anyone whos dealing with substance abuse, and depression I pray for you guys daily. Being sober is a feeling words cant even describe God Bless

[@MrSillySkits]

I listen to it more than other other song! While I’m sad she’s gone, Whitney still speaks to me, to us, with encouragement and overcoming obstacles. Most of us are our own worst enemy and this song reminds me, and encourages me to focus on my connected to a higher power and my own strength through that connection to my creator. Bless you, sweet Angel, Whitney
