For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7"
Mary says: "First of all I was raised in a loving Christian home, my dad was a preacher and still fills in speaking at local churches, I was raised, by "spare the rod, spoil the child", but I still was not grateful, and I paid for that for many years, however we go back to our roots when we hit bottom, and I hit bottom years ago. My grandmother (God rest her wonderful soul in heaven) always wrote me and reminded me to pray, I'd put the letter down not wanting to hear it (that was the devil shutting my ears), but later something made me pick it up before the day ended and read EVERY WORD. (THAT WAS GOD)
I have been abused many times, and never spoke about it, but now that I serve God, and only God, though I am not perfect, I will no longer SILENTLY tolerate abuse of any kind, verbal, mental, emotional and SURELY NOT PHYSICAL. Those of you that saw me open up last week, seem worried about me, but I have never slept better (THAT IS GOD) - see scripture above. It's all good! Read on and KNOW that you are loved. You don't have to hit bottom, to find peace and happiness.
If I were any happier at this moment I'd bust a seam.........(THAT IS GOD)" -
I adore all of you, even those of you that have spoken harshly to me over a simple darn offer that made you mad on my newsletter. I know it goes deeper than that.......there is too much anger in this world, and if I can help ONE PERSON, then my job is done!
Links for you, that may help you OPEN your eyes, and get UNbrainwashed and get OUT, or get help. I am not a Dr, I am not a therapist, I recommend that you find a pastor, even if he is a stranger, he will make time for you, if you ask.
Read on and DO SOMETHING about you situation...........you are NOT alone.........
Bet you didn't know that years ago I used to be afraid to be alone, I used to not feel good unless a man was telling me I am beautiful, or unless my phone was ringing and I was "wanted"........well, how would you like to be free of that fear? like I am FREE now? That's the best freebie in the world - ha ha. It's awesome to be FREE, and need no one but GOD"
