This is the story of an angry girl. A girl who is angry with those who robbed her of her childhood, causing her to grow up faster than she should have. This is a story about a girl angry at her father for leaving her, causing her to feel a void that she spent her entire teenager years trying to fill. This is a girl who is angry at the woman her dad went to when he left, leaving her feeling second rate to his new family. This is the story of a girl angry at her mother for using her as a crutch when she went through her divorce. This is a girl, angry at the kids who made fun of her so badly that she would rather die than go to school. This is the story of a girl angry at the guy, who at 18 didn't have the sense to keep his hands off a 13 year old girl. This is the story of an angry girl who despises the camp counselor who didn't look away from the girl who was 4 years younger than her, but instead used her school girl crush on him as an excuse to take advantage of her. This is a girl who is angry at all the guys who used her and tossed her aside when all she wanted was someone to love her. She was left feeling alone, useless, unloved and dirty. This is the story of an angry girl.
But this is also the story of redemption. This is the story of a girl who encountered Christ. This is a girl who found the answer to fill the void in her life. This is the story of a girl who surrendered her hurt, her loneliness, her filth, and her anger to a merciful God who looked on her with compassion and said, "I love you and I have sent my Son for you." This is the story of a girl whose life was turned upside down and who was transformed to a new person. This is the story of a girl whose life was given back to her. I am that girl. This is my story.
