HE BEATS ME BCUZ HE LOVES ME!!?? WRONG

HE BEATS ME BECAUSE HE LOVES ME....... This is what most young ladies believe which is very sad. Hi lovvies how are you guys doing this week? i really do hope all is well. With that said lets's get right to it! Growing up i watch my step dad physically abusing my mother everyday for more than 10  years. It would hurt me so much i would cry myself to sleep. Most nights i would have nightmares about it or i would be woken by my mother's cry or her 150 (more or less not sure) pound body in the door or even my step-dad's slap upon her cheeks. I sometimes would go in the middle to try and stop him or i would just hide under my sheets.

I will never for get the night when it was just too much for my mom to bear any more she begged him to kill her. So much so that she took up the knife and handed it to him and said "here just kill me."  Growing up and seeing all this and not seeing my mom fight back i soon started to believe that this was what a relationship should look like. So of course when i started dating and my boyfriend would not hit me i would get angry at him to try and get him upset so he would hit me.


 However, he was too much of a gentleman to hit me so i broke up with him because in my mind he was not trying to make this relationship work or maybe he didn't love me. This would continue with other relationships until i spoke to someone about it and he took me to the word of God and told me the a guy should love his spouse as he love himself and as Christ love the church.

It was then that i realized for sure that what a man should love, cherish, protect, respect and treat a woman like a queen and not like a monster, an animal or like she has no worth.


So, lovvies if you or anyone you know is in this position plz get out because there is better and you deserve better.

talk to you later stay safe......

JESUS LOVES YOU.

You are NOT A SEX MACHINE!

 Hey Lovvies, what's up? hope all is well.
Well, let's get right to it. As, the topic suggests i will be writing about sex, and i know this is a topic loved by many and also what the devil is using against young people. For example, telling them that it's impossible to stay pure until marriage. Well, i struggled a lot in this area after the rape; because i thought that i was send here to be a sex machine, because if all these men kept taking advantage of me then that must surely be my purpose on earth.







      NB....  Also, what hurt me the most is that my virginity was stolen from me so when my friends woulds say they are still virgins i would get so angry. Until i heard about a second virginity pledge where you can still be pure and abstain from sex in a KISSN (KEEP IT SIMPLE SAY NO) PROGRAM where you take a pledge to never have sex until marriage by the GRACE OF GOD, because it will get hard.

    So, im saying all of this to say that ladies you are not sex machines you are created wonderfully in the sight of God ( Psalms 139). He loves you with an everlasting love. So just depend on Him for everything and see you the way how Christ sees you NOT SOCIETY!



LOVE YOU LOVVIES

My encounter with the Guy who Raped me!!!

Hey guys! i missed you all so much and yes i know it"s just a week ago i posted my last blog but it's like you guys are apart of my life now.....


Anyways, today i just want to tell you guys about my encounter or might i say my confrontation with the guy who raped me.  I know this might sound crazy because normally we wud not want to confront them but i know in my heart and soul that this is what God want me to do. So, i was at church and i saw him and i was so uneasy in my sit i i just had to talk to him and tell him how i felt. So, i went and called him outside, and as he was approaching me i was so afraid my heart was going faster than Usain Bolt on the track. However, he came up to me and i said you know what i want to talk about right? and he replied "yes because God was sending me to you from last week" i was so amazed at how God was preparing both of us at the same time. Welll we spoke and he ask me did i really do it? now that got me mad!! so i said to him yes you did because i begged you to stop i was in pain and you carried on, you never stopped until you were pleased. And it hurt...... AND AT THIS POINT I WAS RELIVING EVERY SECOND OF AUGUST 18... but i wud never cry in front of him... and when i had finished venting he asked me if i can forgive him and i looked at him almost in tears Adam (name changed for security and personal reasons) i have forgiven you years ago and surprisingly he looked at me and said I AM SORRY.




Guys, i am not saying that after that i immediately got over it but I GOT BACK A PIECE OF MY THAT WAS STOLEN,  I WAS ABLE TO BREATHE AND I WAS ABLE TO LOOK AT MYSELF AS HUMAN ONCE AGAIN AND ALSO I FELT IN CONTROL A LITTLE AGAIN.




I AM NOT SAYING IN NO WAY OR FORM THAT YOU SHOULD GO HUNT DOWN ANYONE AND CONFRONT THEM, BECAUSE IF GOD DID NOT PREPARE  ME FOR THAT I DON'T THINK I WOULD HAVE GONE THAT WAY. SO, JUST LEAVE IT TO GOD AND TELL OTHERS ABOUT IT (MEANING SOMEONE YOU TRUST) AND I AM ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU....


LOVE YOU LOVIES......XOXOXO

(passage to read for this week Corinthians 13)

CUTTER: :-(

What does hurting yourself mean? 

Hurting yourself, sometimes called self-injury, is when a person deliberately hurts his or her own body. Some self-injuries can leave scars that won’t go away, while others leave marks or bruises that eventually will go away. These are some forms of self-injury:

• Cutting yourself (such as using a razor blade, knife, or other sharp object to cut the skin)
• Punching yourself or punching things (like a wall)
• Burning yourself with cigarettes, matches, or candles
• Pulling out your hair
• Poking objects through body openings
• Breaking your bones or bruising yourself

Why do some teens want to hurt themselves?  top

Many people cut themselves because it gives them a sense of relief. Some people use cutting as a means to cope with a problem. Some teens say that when they hurt themselves, they are trying to stop feeling lonely, angry, or hopeless. Some teens who hurt themselves have low self-esteem, they may feel unloved by their family and friends, and they may have an eating disorder, an alcohol or drug problem, or may have been victims of abuse.

Teens who hurt themselves often keep their feelings “bottled up” inside and have a hard time letting their feelings show. Some teens who hurt themselves say that feeling the pain provides a sense of relief from intense feelings. Cutting can relieve the tension from bottled up sadness or anxiety. Others hurt themselves in order to “feel.” Often people who hold back strong emotions can begin feeling numb, and cutting can be a way to cope with this because it causes them to feel something. Some teens also may hurt themselves because they want to fit in with others who do it.

If you are hurting yourself, PLEASE GET HELP — It is possible to overcome the urge to cut. There are other ways to find relief and cope with your emotions. Please talk to your parents, your doctor, or an adult you trust, like a teacher or religious leader. ( this are not my thoughts i got it from something i was read on the net) i wanted to share it because it is so true to me bcuz i cut and i am and addict who is getting over it.... so guys you see  all i want to do is help you while you can help me. 

love you lovies xoxoxoxo

LOVE YOURSELF!!!!

Hey guys, it has been a while now. I am really so sorry, but life has been busy.
     Anyways, my blog today is about learning to love yourself! i decided to write about this today because i am just learning to love me, i'm not there fully, but i am getting there. I mean after the rape i lost all respect, love and control of and for myself.



 But, i have learned if you don't  love you no one will. SO LOVE YOURSELF GO ON DATES WITH YOURSELF AND JUST FIND THINGS THAT YOU LIKE TO DO OKAY!!!


LOVE YOU LOVES!! XOXOXO

I LOST MYSELF!!! :-(

Hey guys what's up? Well today's blog is about what happened to me perviously. Well i found something out that i didnt digested so well and so i went and i did some stupid stuff. Why did i do all this because it awoke all my memories and past.


I gave up on God because i thought that my problems were bigger than Him, but that's where i was wrong. I took my eyes off Him and gave the devil a second out of my day, which is Never a good idea. The verse pray without ceasing comes to mind  You see in life it's either we serve God or we suffer the consequnces....

                                                   To be continued!!

So, please choose the right thing because Jesus loves you....love you lovies

some of my fav.quotes of inspiration

Be your character what it will, it will be known, and nobody will take it upon your word.
Lord Chesterfield

Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us.
Thomas Paine

Nothing of character is really permanent but virtue and personal worth.
Daniel Webster

The essential thing is not knowledge, but character.
Joseph Le Conte

It requires less character to discover the faults of others, than to tolerate them.
J. Petit Senn

A good name will shine forever.
Proverb

A fair reputation is a plant, delicate in its nature, and by no means rapid in its growth. It will not shoot up in a night like the gourd of the prophet; but, like that gourd, it may perish in a night.
Jeremy Taylor

Sow an act, and you reap a habit; sow a habit, and you reap a character; sow a character, and you reap a destiny.
George Dana Boardman    

Talents are best nurtured in solitude. Character is best formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Our character is but the stamp on our souls of the free choices of good and evil we have made through life.
John C. Geikie

Reputation is for time; character is for eternity.
J. B. Gough

Character is a diamond that scratches every other stone.
Cyrus A. Bartol

In the stormy current of life characters are weights or floats which at one time make us glide along the bottom, and at another maintain us on the surface.
Hippolyte Taine

Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Talents are best nurtured in solitude, but character is best formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Characters do not change. Opinions alter, but characters are only developed.
Benjamin Disraeli

A man's character is like his shadow, which sometimes follows and sometimes precedes him, and which is occasionally longer, occasionally shorter, than he is.
Madame de la Rochejuquelein

Men best show their character in trifles, where they are not on their guard. It is in the simplest habits, that we often see the boundless egotism which pays no regard to the feelings of others and denies nothing to itself.
Arthur Schopenhauer

Every man, as to character, is the creature of the age in which he lives. Very few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of their times.
Voltaire

It is of little traits that the greatest human character is composed.
William Winter

Character and personal force are the only investments that are worth anything.
Walt Whitman

Character is, for the most part,
simply habit become fixed.
C. H. Parkhurst

We are builders of our own characters. We have different positions, spheres, capacities, privileges, different work to do in the world, different temporal fabrics to raise; but we are all alike in this, -- all are architects of fate.
John Fothergill Waterhouse Ware

Character is, in the long run, the decisive factor in the life of individuals and of nations alike.
Theodore Roosevelt

Actions, looks, words and steps form the alphabet by which you may spell character.
Johann Kasper Lavater

Every human being is intended to have a character of his own; to be what no others are, and to do what no other can do.
William Henry Channing

Let us not say, Every man is the architect of his own fortune; but let us say, Every man is the architect of his own character.
George Dana Boardman

Fate is character.
William Winter

Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live, as well as strong to think.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Such as are thy habitual thoughts, such also will be the character of thy mind; for the soul is dyed by the thoughts.
Marcus Aurelius

RAPE PART 2 :-(

When someone get raped, it chances everything about them. It changes how they think,  how they feel about themselves and how they see others so please be kind to someone you know who has been raped. It takes the grace of God bring them back to at least 1% of sanity and to keep them from becoming insane.


For them life will never be the same with or without God. So, please pray for them.......

The night i lost my INNOCENCE!!!! :-(

There are times in life when we are so very happy and think nothing can possible go wrong, and then something goes wrong. I was nine when my mommy left me at home with my uncle and my other cousins so she could get some "me time" which she needed because i can be such a hand full. Anyways, back to the night when my innocence was ripped away from me. We were all playing and then he told was it was bed time, so i got into bed and then he said i was sleeping with him, which i did not object to. but, now i wish that i had........and then that's when it all happened. When he was through he took his towel and wiped me off. i did not cry because at that moment i did not know what he was doing i thought that it was alright because it was uncle. but i realized i was never the same little princess and more who loved to play with her cousins. all  i wanted to do was to be alone and cry.....

However, one day i went to visit my aunt (this is years after that night) and the radio was playing and the radio announcer was talking about rape and then he or she defined it and  told what it does to someone. And that's when it hit, i stopped and said to my self oh that what uncle did, HE RAPED ME!!! and i was so much more terrified of him because i now know what he had done and what i was feeling.  

All i wanted was to feel like me again in my body. i wanted to be pure and i needed to be ME again.... but fOR years i could never feel that i hated my self i wanted to DIE!!!

but, honestly the only time i found me was in Christ!!! but i was never over night i was a process..... and he can do it for you too okay he loves you and you can find healing in the name of Jesus......He loves me and He will never leave or hurt us.... 

Jesus Christ who died on the cross for our sins loves us!!!!!! love you lovies....to be continued......

The BIG Confession...i too was........!!!!

Hey guys, this morning i woke up so very tired, why? because i cried myself to sleep last night. It was all because of my past, you see you might be wondering why i have decided to write blogs about abuse. Well, it is because i was raped!! and i know how much it hurts to want to feel like yourself again and how it feels to want to get him out your mind off your body and out of your soul....


You see it hurts. and it hurts even more when you have no one to talk to. Previously, i lost my best friend and soulmate and it has made me depressed and i feel so alone at times. but, you see it is in those times that i talk to God i tell Him about my scares and pain. He is all we need to be able to truly get pass this hurdle and the pains and memories that wants to kill us.

you are never in too deep where God cant reach you..... you have a purpose and He loves you!!!

Guys at times we leave alone but we are never alone...God is always here, and im here for you..love you loveies......xoxoxoxoxoxo

Rusheka Lewis: Touchie topic: RAPE Part 1!!!!

Rusheka Lewis: Touchie topic: RAPE Part 1!!!!: Rape is forced, unwanted sexual intercourse. Rape is about power, not sex. Both men and women of any age can be raped. Rape is a crime,...

Touchie topic: RAPE Part 1!!!!

Rape is forced, unwanted sexual intercourse. Rape is about power, not sex. Both men and women of any age can be raped. Rape is a crime, it is a sin and it needs to stop!!!  

WHAT CAN RAPE DO TO AN INDIVIDUAL? Well, rape can literally transform an individual. It can turn an out going person into a quiet and reserve person and it can turn someone who loves pink into a dark Gothic person. Persons who have been raped feels alone and hopeless. (ps. i am in no way saying that all Gothic are raped victims)

When someone gets raped their innocence and dignity is stripped away. The thing though is that at times the victims start to hate themselves and they tend to lose trust in everyone. It also hard for them to forgive or to even love them self after that.

Lets work together to stop rape, even a hug can go soo far!!!! lovies just know i'm here for you . 
Can contact me at h_inchrist@yahoo.com...  I LOVE YOU....

How to overcome verbal abuse!!!

Hey guys. Today i am going to be talking about how to overcome verbal abuse by using the word of God! People might say what's there to overcome they are just word? yes they are word but no, they are not just words they are abusive and hurtful words. They are words that can cut and destroy an individual's self esteem.

    The above picture shows some abusive words.
          You might ask how then can i overcome verbal abuse? well, these scars are not physical, they are emotional ones. So, we can't go to the doctor for it but we can go to the Word of God the is able to transform. Firstly, one must find their identity in Christ. Who am i in Christ? What does the Bible (God's word say i am) says about who i am...to answer these questions are just a few of the many verses that speaks to who we are in the sight of Christ;


     1. YOU ARE ACCEPTED- 

• john 1:12 I am God's child.
  Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God
• John 15:15 As a disciple, I am a friend of Jesus Christ.
  I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
• Romans 5:1 I have been justified.
  Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
• 1 Corinthians 6:17 I am united with the Lord, and I am one with Him in spirit.
  But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  2. YOU ARE SECURE-
  • Romans 8:1 I am free from condemnation.
    Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
  • Romans 8:28 I am assured that God works for my good in all circumstances.
    And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
  • Romans 8:31-39 I am free from any condemnation brought against me and I cannot be separated from the love of God.
    What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died more than that, who was raised to life is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:"For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughter"No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
    
    
    
    
    3. YOU ARE SIGNIFICANT-
    • 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 I am a minister of reconciliation for God.
      Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
    • Ephesians 2:6 I am seated with Jesus Christ in the heavenly realm.
      And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
    • Ephesians 2:10 I am God's workmanship.
      For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
    • Ephesians 3:12 I may approach God with freedom and confidence.
      In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.
    • Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
      I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
      
      
      
      
      
      
      4. YOU ARE LOVED-
      John 3:16 for God so loved the word that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believe in him should not perish but have everlasting life. 
          
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      After one has found their worth in Christ them those wounds will begin to heal..... Thanks again for reading guys... love you lovies xoxoxo
      
      WE ALL CAN MAKE A CHANGE, START NOW!!!!!
  
  
  
  

Physical Abuse

THE PICTURE ABOVE DEFINES PHYSICAL ABUSE BECAUSE MANY DON'T KNOW WHEN THE LINE BETWEEN AN HARMLESS ACCIDENT AND PHYSICAL ABUSE AS BEEN DRAWN. 

     NO ONE SHOULD SIT AROUND AND ALLOW ANYONE TO ABUSE HIM OR HER. IT SHOULD BE REPORTED NO MATTER WHAT DON'T SIT AROUND AND ALLOW IT!!   LADIES PLEASE ERASE THIS PHRASE FROM YOUR MIND THAT "HE BEATS YOU BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU" IF HE LOVED YOU HE WOULD NEVER EVEN BEGIN TO CONCEIVE TO THOUGHT OF HITTING YOU.

        IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LOVE IS PLEASE READ 1 CORINTHIANS 13, THAT IS THE CORE DEFINITION OF WHAT LOVE IS!!!

I'm saying that the abusers can't or won't stop but, most of the times they don''t. The only way a person will surely change is if he or she has had a change of heart....and the MOST HIGH GOG  is the only one who can change someone's heart. Psychology changes the conditions of a situation for sometimes but the Word of God changes the heart. 

Maybe you grow up in a family like this one like i did . And you now think that this is how a woman should be treated, as i did. Surprising, yes i thought that if a man did not hit a woman in a relationship then something is wrong. So i would mess up relationships because my boyfriend would not hit me like i saw my step-dad doing to my mom. But it was the help of my christian role models and reading the word of God that i found out that this is wrong. No man has any right to hit a woman no matter what. 

Ladies you don't have to take my word for it but read for yourselves, Ephesians 5:28 "So ought men to love wives ( or your girlfriend/spouse...not reading into the bible but the application can be found in this verse) as THEIR bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself."

Make a change and do some thing about your situation or help someone you know!!!! thanks for reading....love you lovies <3

VERBAL ABUSE!!!!

THIS HAS BEEN A PHRASE THAT INDIVIDUALS USE LOOSELY. BUT HOW TRUTHFUL IS IT? DO WORDS HURT AT ALL OR ARE THEY HAS PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE, "JUST WORDS". WELL, I STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH THIS, BECAUSE MOST TIMES WORDS HURT MUCH MORE THAN HITS. A CUT WILL HEAL BUT WORDS HAVE LONG TERM EFFECTS.  

        THE BIBLE STATES IN PROVERBS 15:1" A SOFT ANSWER TURNETH AWAY WRATH, BUT GRIEVOUS WORDS STIRS UP ANGER" ALSO COLOSSIANS 4:6 STATES THAT OUR SPEECH SHOULD ALWAYS BE SEASONED WITH SALT, THAT WE MAY KNOW HOW TO ANSWER EVERY MAN. 

          NOW, WE SEE HERE THAT WORDS ARE VERY POWERFUL AND ARE ABLE TO HURT AN INDIVIDUAL SO THAT IS WHY GOD WOULD SPEND TIME TO WARN US ABOUT OUR SPEECH.... 

     START TODAY MAKE A CHANGE IN SOMEONE'S LIFE SAY A KIND WORD, IT MAY BE SMALL BUT IT MAY BE JUST WHAT SOMEONE WANTED TO HEAR. 

XOXOX LOVE YOU THANKS FOR READING <3  

THIS IS A PHRASE THAT PEOPLE THROW AROUND BUT HOW TRUE IS IT?

Moving from fear to Love!!!
