     IMAGINE WITH ME FOR JUST A MOMENT WOMAN LOOKING INTO THE MIRROR. WHAT SHE SEES IS NOTHING BUT UGLY SCARS AND HURTS FROM THINGS PAST. SHE IS SO CAUGHT UP IN THE MOMENT THAT SHE DOESN'T EVEN REALIZE THAT THOSE THINGS ARE BEHIND HER. WITH HER EYES SHE TRACES THE LINES OF REJECTION, OF ABUSE, OF BEING ABANDONED AND EVEN OF DRUGS ALL OVER HER TIRED AND STRESSED FACED.THE REASON SEE ALL OF THIS IN HER FACE IS BECAUSE SHE CAN'T SEE BEYOND HER PAST. SHE IS STUCK IN THE THINGS THAT HAPPENED TO HER AND CAN NOT LET GO OF THEM!!!

   SHE THINKS SHE IS UGLY BUT FROM ALL OF THOSE SCARS, YEARS OF DRUGS AND BEING USED IN WAYS A WOMAN SHOULD NOT BE USED. CUTTING HERSELF JUST TO TRY AND REALISE THINGS FROM HER LIFE. OFTEN OVER DOSING TO TRY AND GET OUT OF THIS WEBBED WORLD THAT SHE HAS GOTTEN HERSELF INTO. HOW CAN SOMEONE LOVE THAT? THOUGHTS OF PAIN AND THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE LINGER IN HER MIND. THE ONLY WAY OUT IS TO END IT ALL!!!

   SHE DOESN'T HAVE IT IN HER ANYMORE TO LOVE HERSELF. SHE SEES HERSELF AS THE WAY SHE THINKS OTHERS SEE HER AND THAT IS TRASH!!! WHEN SHE LOOKS AT OTHER WOMEN THEY JUST TURN THEIR HEADS AND WALK THE OTHER WAY BECAUSE THEY KNOW HER AND WHAT SHE HAS DONE. SO INSTEAD OF HELPING HER THE TOSS HER ASIDE AND WALK ON LIKE SHE IS NOT EVEN THERE. THIS IS WHAT SHE THINKS WHEN SHE SEES HERSELF IN THE MIRROR.

   THE THINGS FROM THE PAST ARE JUST THAT IN THE PAST. IT IS SO HARD TO LOOK PAST WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH IN ORDER TO SEE CLEARLY WHERE YOU ARE GOING.BUT IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOVE YOURSELF EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE FACED SUCH TRAGIC THINGS IN YOUR LIFE.

   THIS NOT ONLY GOES TO FEMALES BUT MALES AS WELL. NO MATTER WHAT YOU HAVE FACED YOU CAN LOVE AGAIN...TRUE LOVE NOT JUST THIS FAKE STUFF...YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT..SAYING THE WORDS AND NOT REALLY MEANING THEM..WHAT'S UP WITH THAT???..THINKING YOU HAVE TO JUMP THROUGH SOME HOOP TO GET IT..BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING BUT LOVE.

    NOW I AM NOT INTO RELIGON, I'M NOT A RELIGOUS PERSON. RELGION IS A MAN MADE THING AND IT HAS ALSO HURT SO MANY IN THIS WORLD.  I AM A CHRISTIAN-THAT MEANS AN EXPERIENCE OF TRUE LOVE AND TRUE FORGIVENESS OF THE THINGS OF THE PAST. THE GREATEST LOVE WAS IN JOHN 3:16...

John 3:16

New International Version (NIV)

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

   NOW THAT IS THE BEST LOVE OF ALL!!! CHRIST DIED SO THAT WE MIGHT HAVE LIFE AND TO LOVE AGAIN.

   NOW I KNOW WHAT YOUR THINKING..WOW A RELIGOUS NUT!!! LIKE I STATED BEFORE I AM NOT RELIGOUS--NEVER HAVE BEEN AND NEVER WILL BE..THAT'S NOT GOD MADE BUT A MAN MADE THING. WE ARE  CALLED TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER JUST AS CHRIST DIED TO LOVE US!!!

   NOW IMAGINE WITH ME FOR A MOMENT THAT SAME LADY AS BEFORE BUT THIS TIME SHE ASKED JESUS TO COME INTO HER LIFE...

  NO LONGER THINKING BAD THINGS ABOUT HERSELF..NO LONGER CUTTING--SHE'S BEEN DELIVERED FROM THE PAIN, NO LONGER ON DRUGS--SHE'S BEEN REDEEMED, NO LONGER USING HER BODY FOR UNGODLY THINGS BUT IT'S RESTORED TO BE A TEMPLE FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT TO LIVE IN...WOW!!!

  NOT ONLY THIS PRECIOUS HEART BUT YOU CAN HAVE THIS SAME EXPERIENCE. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO RIGHT NOW IS KNEEL AND ASK THE LORD TO FORGIVE YOU AND COME INTO YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW--YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AT CHURCH--YOU CAN BE ANYWHERE!!! AND GUESS WHAT??? HE WILL COME INTO YOU LIFE RIGHT THEN AND THERE!!!  YOU WILL NO LONGER BE BOUND TO THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD BUT YOU WILL BE SET FREE AND YOU WILL BE IN YOUR RIGHT MIND!!! NO LONGER DEPRESSED--THAT'S GONE!!! JUST THINK ABOUT IT AND JUST EXPERIENCE WHAT THE LORD WANTS TO DO IN YOUR LIFE !!!!

   YOU CAN LOVE AGAIN I PROMISE YOU CAN!!! LOVE YOURSELF ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE BETTER THEN WHAT YOU ARE HAVE FACED OR THE VERY THINGS YOU ARE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW-WHETHER DRUGS, DRINKING, SUICIDE, ABUSE, PROSTIUTION, CUTTING..WHAT EVER YOU MIGHT BE GOING THROUGH YOU CAN LOVE YOURSELF AGAIN!!!

   I, MYSELF, AM LIVING PROOF OF THAT!!! I WENT THROUGH ABUSE AND I THOUGHT I WAS SO UNLOVEABLE THAT NO ONE COULD TOUCH MY HEART-BUT THE LORD DID AND I AM FOREVER CHANGED BECAUSE OF IT!!! I HAD SO MANY ISSUES FROM THE ABUSE I HAD WENT THROUGH THAT I WANTED TO END IT ALL. BUT GOD CHANGED ME!!! HE SET ME FREE FROM MY PAST AND FROM THE THINGS I FACED AND I KNOW FOR A FACT HE CAN DO YOU THE SAME WAY!!!  :)
