Christy-ana Williams-Rutil has encountered many challenges at such a young age--the most profound was the abandonment of her father. However, her Christianity and her love for God gave her the courage to hope that everything will ultimately be okay. Her strength comes from God. She believes that there is no battle that God cannot win and no problem he cannot solve. Christy's hope is that every child who is going through heartbreak after losing a parent either through death or abandonment can find rest in the arms of Jesus. She believes that building a relationship with Jesus will definitely replace any pain.

Christy also believes that forgiveness and love is better than hate. She believes whenever someone hurts you for no apparent reason, you pray for them and love them. You even forgive them because they do not know what they are doing. People hurt people because they allow the enemy to control them. We should pray that God helps them to turn from the enemy. Once that person has Christ in their life, they will change, so they will make the right choices. People without Christ are immune to wrong decisions, bad behavior, poor relationships, and poor judgments. She says, "You cannot hate someone who does not know better. You just pray for them."
