What do you see when you see me?

Says millions of people around the world

What do see in me?

It can't be anything good

I walk down the hall not a single boy ever looks at me

Why do all the girls try to stay clear of me?

All I see when I look in the mirror are the labels

Fat, stupid, worthless, unlovable, *******, hopeless, future less

How can anyone see anything good when they see my face?

I spend all my time under a hood walking through halls

Slipping between classes

Hoping no one sees me

That may be what you see when you look at yourself

That may be what people tell you

But I'm here to tell you something different

Jesus says something different

He says

I made you in my image

I created you to be you

I didn't make you to feel guilty after eating a simple meal

I didn't breathe life into you so others could tell you what you are

I already made you to be who you are

And don't you dare think that those labels were true because when I see you all I see is beauty because I love you and my love for you is endless

I love you enough to die for you

When I see you

I see what I created

Says Jesus Christ
