  I Am A Water House
- a poem written for survivors and NAASCA family members

by Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) - Episode 995 talk show special guest Susan Sengezer - 12/26/14

Tonight's special guest is Susan Sengezer from Costa Mesa, an Emergency Room RN at Providence Holy Cross Medical Center, an ordained Christian minister and Ms California Ambassador FoRe! Domestic Violence with Safe Passage as her charity of choice. She's also an accomplished author of three books, "I'll Meet You at Winston and Wall Street Journals: Ministering to the Homeless on the Streets of Los Angeles," "The Anointing of Mercy from the Heart of a Parish Nurse: Providing a Guide to Minister in the Hospital setting," and "Journey To My Fathers Palace." 

Susan explains, "I would describe myself as an "I can do all things kind of person" learning this biblical principle in my late teens." She continues, "I overcame Domestic Violence with odds against me a marriage at age 16 to an abusive man. I put myself through College with 5 children at age 30 and became an Registered Nurse in the Emergency room." Susan has served on the board of the Charity Safe Passage for over 3 years and has been their full time sponsor everywhere she goes. She looks forward to her role as Ms United States Ambassador FoRe! Domestic Violence and hopes she can do a great deal of good with the voice God gave her. "I wanted to give back and became a certified advocate for domestic violence in 1997. Today standing strong I have accomplished my past goals of writing my story and donating it to domestic violence."

I Am A Water House

I am a water house,

I am filled ready to burst, breaking chains severing lies, broken dreams and demonic ties

Drinking, soaking, overflowing with ecstasy, your consuming all of me

You raised me like Jesus when I was dead, no one but you to tend to my head

Broken bones and teeth I'm still standing, the pain long gone

Where did you go? When I closed my eyes then you showed me “the well isn't dry”

Pain, blame, all behind me now rationalizing; “Oh God” you claimed me

When I stood blaming you for what others had done

You stopped me and bathed me clean, so now

I am a water house down the river I go to help others with seeds given to sow
