In Your Own Words:
Sight
by Carrie Raines, Age 16
Send this page to a friend
Don't you see
my world is spinning
with every drink I take
Don't you see
I am not winning
with every hit I make
Don't you see
that I am worthless
to every guy I'm with
No!
You all
embraced me
loved me
prayed for me
cried with me
held me
showed me
the way, the truth, the light
You didn't see my scars
You saw my healing
You didn't take away my pride
You gave me Christ
And He gave me life
You are showing me
how to use that life
You love me
And I love you
Note from Carrie: This was written to thank my youth pastor and the youth staff for all they have done for me as I've found my way.
