I have a question, but I'd like to receive a private response.

 

I AM NOT A MISTAKE, I AM MEANT TO BE

Greetings readers, 

Thank you being a supporter of the vision that God has given this ministry to see that sexually abused victims are healed.  Thank you for your questions.  I will try to answer them so that you may be released by the truth of the word.  If you have concerns about this topic or know someone who has been abused and you desire to assist them in getting the help that they need, please send those concerns/questions to www.glhinesministries.com.  

                                                WHAT DO I DO?

When I was seven years old I was abused by my step-father. This continued for about five years.  I revealed my secret and now my mother and she now disowns me because she learned it was actually true.  He’s now incarcerated.  What should I do?

I applaud your courage to tell the truth.  I wrote a chapter in my book entitled “Silence Strengthens the Hand of the Abuser”.  No one likes to know that the one they’re “in love with” is abusing another person that they love.  Your mother has not only lost you, but she has lost her husband and I’m sure that she has a lot of emotional distress in her life now.  I would make an effort to call her once a week just to say hi.  If she doesn’t return the call, I would not allow that to deter my efforts.  Send her a card on a regular basis and most definitely pray for her.  Sometimes, as the “victim”, you have to find a way to become the “victor” in a swift manner in order to help others be free.  I know that it is painful for you to lose your innocence as well as your mother.  I think when the time comes, therapy is a MUST. 

Due to my sexual abuse I am very physically and verbally abusive to my kids.  As I am abusing them I see so much of my father (the one who abused me) in me. 

My dear, you are walking in your father’s shoes of abuse.  You need to be healed of everything that he has done to you in order to be a good parent to your kids.  In the meantime, you need to somehow turn that around and walk in your own shoes and remember how you felt when you were being abused.  Now you will understand how your children feel.  In the psychological world it’s called a “pattern of behavior”.  In the spiritual sense it’s called a “generational curse”.  Seek help immediately, because if you don’t, your kids will fight their grandfather’s demon of abuse. 

My first encounter with sexual abuse occurred when I was 11 years old.  My uncle (who is married) was my abuser.  This relationship is still continuing and I am 26.  How can I get out of it? I feel so entangled and manipulated.  

First of all, do you want to get out?  If so, understand that there are many entanglements that you are facing.  You are fighting against manipulation – you were taken advantage of when you were a child; you are dealing with the transferring of spirits through sexual contact; you are dealing with your identity since it was taken at such a young age; a misinterpretation of sex and it’s use and definitely a lack of knowledge when it comes to love.  There are many other things, but right now, if you desire to get out, I would encourage you to talk with someone you trust, and call the local authorities.  Depending on the state in which you live, there is no statute of limitation regarding laws dealing with sexual abuse.  You can get out. you are better thAn that, for you are NOT a mistake!
