awwwwwwwww pine sis
When u shared about ur feelings through the instructors words, its cuz u know in ur heart what those children went through. Sis, i can almost guarantee you that you weren't the only person in the room who was abused. Statistics twenty years ago said that 1 in every 4 women were abused by time they were 18 and 1 in every 7 men. The thing about those statistics is that they are based on only the ones that are reported, and while women are more likely to report than men,, there are women that go without reporting it. I recently saw in the newspaper where child abuse is escalating. Ok ya got zinged a lil, enemy saw a weak point and honed right on in, but sis,,,, u took it to God and that is SO very awesome!
I feel ya when u said that growth had gotten stagnant... what i see in that is that healing takes time.. kinda like how growing into adulthood takes time.. there are periods of rest and periods of growth spurts. So, perhaps rather than being stagnant it is just a period of rest time before that next growth spurt.(more healing)
Healing IS possible sis and you have come soooo very far. Its ok to have some rest times cuz we need em in order to gather strength to continue to Overcome... sis u are well on ur way and I am sooo very proud of u cuz it is not an easy road we travel and yep my sister one day you WILL be healed!!! Of that i have no doubt... in meantime just keep on a keeping on and know that you are loved and God has ya sis for sure! And HE ain't gonna let go!!!
luvs u sooo very much
