Today I feel the need to take this blog in a different direction by talking about something that has become near and dear to me.

Dear Beautiful One:
Today I saw you and my heart cried when i saw the sadness in your eyes, you tried to hide it behind your smile but I saw your pain, i saw just how sad you were.

You walked with me as I tried to comfort you, I held you close so you would know that you were not alone and then your tears came and my heart cried even more as I whispered a prayer just for you.

Watching you walk away to class wasn’t easy because I knew there was still more that needed to be said but can you even hear at this point that him hitting you is not out of love, him hitting you comes from his own insecurities and weaknesses.

Countless times women suffer through abuse because they fear the one they are with, other times it gets to a point where they begin to think that if he doesn’t hit me, he doesn’t love me, or they begin to blame themselves for what is taking place.

Abuse isn’t always physical at times it’s verbal but in any form it’s not an easy thing to get through or over and often times female stick around because they no longer feel worthy, they no longer love themselves enough or they are simply too tired to take the ultimate step. In any case a stance must be taken, help must be given, reassurances must be spoken so the abused will know that there are no judgements when help is being administered.

How does this apply to the word of God you ask? Well God’s word does tell us that we are all perfectly and wonderfully made   and that when God created us He said it was good which means that He placed some things in us that makes us unique.

We were all created with purpose and He already laid out His plan which never included being a punching bag for anyone .  To heal from all this one must learn how to fall in love with self in such a way where we will stand for what what is good and denounce the evil that tries to infiltrate the mind and body.

Abuse is never good, abuse should never be accepted or tolerated, abuse must at all times be frowned upon and in order for this to set in everyone of us must understand our value, we must understand who we truly are to God  and we must understand that walking away and letting go is always an option understanding that what once served you may not be good for you anymore

In closing this is what I will add if you know of anyone who is getting abused, speak up, take a stance, help before time runs out on them
