For Every Abuse there is Healing at the Cross!

According to RAINN.com (Rape, Abuse, Incest National Network) one out of six American women has been sexually abused in their life time.  In other words, if it hasn’t happened to you then you probably know someone that has gone through this type of abuse.  Whether it happened in their childhood, teen years or adulthood, the plague or as I like to call it “the sting” of this abuse is lasting until you give it to God for healing.  Abuse no matter what kind, penetrates the core and often many mask the occurrence but it shows up.  It can show up when you least expect it ~ while you are watching a movie or listening to a song, hearing someone else’s testimony or just seeing it on the news again that horrible memory can rear its ugly head.  We never have to be a victim of abuse, instead be a VICTOR in Christ Jesus.  For every abuse there is healing at the CROSS!  Wholeness only comes through Christ.  Healing is a process, nonetheless, only Jesus Christ can make you whole. 

I was introduced to this poet who is creatively taking the Word of God and bringing life through poetry.  Her raw delivery of the truth transcends the expectation of every listener and captivates every heart.  I pray her ministry blesses you and causes you to give any residue of abuse over to God.  How?  Just pray, “Lord, take the pain, sting, every memory of this abuse and make me whole.”  Leave the rest to God.  He is bigger than your problem, stronger than your issue, He is able, He can and I pray that He will!
