For fear of what I’ll see
The reflection of a worthless girl
Staring back at me
Jesus said love everyone
Am I included too
I do not see how anyone
Could love me as you do
I have nothing to offer
Not perfect, though I try
But every time I let you down
Leading to my question, “Why?”
Why do you say you love me
I feel broken and alone
I hate myself in every way
Yet compassion is all you’ve shown
How can you look upon me
As if I’ve done no wrong
I can’t be in your presence
Send me to hell where I belong
I’ll never look you in the eye
Because I feel such shame
My spot in Heaven- forever lost
And I’m the one to blame
As my heart begins to cry
My pillow becomes wet
Until I finally fall asleep
And these hellish thoughts forget [comments] => 4 [counter] => 211 [topic] => 11 [informant] => lizabeth283 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

This is very sad but written well.
Jesus luvs us no matter what. In the bible it says that nothing can separate us from the luv of God. Nothing!
The beauty of it all is that God luvs us no matter what.Religon, (not all) but most teach us how bad we are instead of the luv of God. It's a personal thing tween u and God and don't let anyone convience u different.
Once we realize that nothing can separate us from him then u will luv yourself. We arn't suppose to be perfect here. That's why Jesus died for us 'cause he knew what this world is like. Forgive yourself and God automatically forgives.
Don't be so hard on yourself and don't let anyone else tell u any different. I think the hardest part is self forgiving self.
luv, huggs, faith, hope, prayer,
emy

UH!!! THAT'S A PITY. NO, NOT THE COMPOSITION BUT THE VERY THOUGHT. GOD ALWAYS LOVE HIS BEINGS, HE DOESN'T CARE YOUR BEING GOOD OR BAD. AT TIMES IT DO SEEMS THAT EVEN GOD HAS TURNED THE FACE, BUT THAT IS THE ONLY PERIOD WHEN HE DIVERTS MOST ATTENTION TO YOU! YOUR EXPRESSIONS ARE QUITE APPRECIABLE, USE THEM IN PRAISE AND LOVE FOR JESUS.
