Good Afternoon,
I have shared
with you previously that God is doing a new thing. I have shared that
God is expanding on my ability to communicate with you the message of
faith, hope, healing and purpose. i have also shared with you that I am a
survivor of multiple abuses. I do not say this with pride, but I say it
with the conviction that God can deliver and heal your broken places no
matter what you face. I am a living witness. Though I am still in a
trial right now that has seemed to drag on, I BLESS GOD because He is
still getting the glory. I am still pressing in and forward with what He
gave me to do. Verbal and emotional abuse can seem harmless to some, almost a rite of passage, especially among teenagers. However, verbal and emotional abuse often leaves many unseen scars. These abuses would not be included as part of domestic violence initiatives if they were truly harmless. According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, 95% of men who physically abuse their partners also psychologically abuse them. In some cases it is an internal issue that can be traced to feelings of another’s insecurities and hidden jealousies. In other cases, it is simply the environment a person has been brought up in and they aren’t even aware of how venomous and destructive verbal and emotional abuse can be. Childhelp.org reports that about 30% of abused and neglected children grow up to abuse their own children. The abuses can eat away at a recipient’s core belief of their self-worth.
