My daughters have been blessed to have made some very good friends.
This poem is by one of their Best Best Friends, Stephanie. She is a gifted painter, dancer, and writer. I claim her as a daughter of my heart and a Sister in Christ.
*SAVED* by 12 year old poet, Stephanie Witt
Christ saved my life
When I was only eight
I remember that day
Crystal clear.
In VBS of '04
Sitting in the floor
With Mama Ruby at the door.
She asked if we,
Had felt a knock o our hearts
With Christ at the door.
I nodded,
Heart pounding.
She called for the preacher
And quickly he came.
They all gathered 'round
With me at the center
And I bowed my head,
Holding "Mama's" hands
Repeated after Brother Randy
Then felt clean,
As never before.
I was SAVED and BORN again.

Maybe I can be Stephanie's grandmother and sister in Christ.
"Father, I pray that you will always surround Stephanie with Godly people who will help her to grow up in You. In the name of Jesus as Teacher, I pray. Amen"
Em and Meg are blessed if they have a good friend!!!!!
Thats very sweet =) I'm sure its great to have a daughter like her!
What a blessing. I see so much hope in that generation of young people. Youth that came to Christ at an early age and who are bold but sweet in their witness. I see this in your children. I pray Stephanie will always choose to be led by the Holy Spirit and allow Christ to live His life out in her. I pray the she, Em & Meg will always be best of friends. Love ya, JC
That was a beautifully written poem. What an amazing thing for an 8 year old girl to be able to put her thoughts into words like that. I pray that Em & Meg will have that kind of friendship with Stephanie that lasts a lifetime.
Hugs,
