I've had a life of sorrow, I've lived a life of pain. Wednesday's child. Full of woe, I've lived a life of shame. I won't elicit sympathy, I won't be bright & witty I'll simply be true to self I surely don't want pity. Whenever IT happened Really matters not But I had tragedy when young Was by a devil caught. IT set about a cycle Which, like a gerbil wheel, Made me shunned, Made me run, To a trap of tungsten steel. I was trapped by drugs & vice Alcohol & more Accepted *** instead of love Practically a ***** I felt unloved. Unlovable. Ever since a child. So I died on the inside Became rebellious... WILD! I was a cheat. I was a thief. I ripped off stores for ***** So I was in the trap of guilt, Could not help but lose! I should have died SO many times! Dragged by a speeding car By a drug crazed jon of mine You think THAT left a scar?? But God had SUCH mercy! He gave me such GRACE! Heart of stone, and yet... HIS OWN! No, I was NOT a WASTE! I have no doubt I'll always have Doubts the devil brings But now I'm *LOVED and LOVABLE! BY THE KING OF KINGS!!!* Catherine Jarvis 12/29/2019

Unloved & Unlovable
I've had a life of sorrow, I've lived a life of pain. Wednesday's child. Full of woe, I've lived a life of shame.

My past is dead. I'm dead along with it. But I've been reborn into Christ's Kingdom. Here I've found the thing I've missed the most... LOVE.
