For The Quietly Suffering… — 4 Comments

  1. AMEN…gospel TRUTH
    Hope, faith & true love from GOD, in God, of GOD & IS GOD.

    1 Corinthians 13
    New King James Version
    The Greatest Gift
    13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of (A)prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, (B)so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And (C)though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [a]to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

    4 (D)Love suffers long and is (E)kind; love (F)does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, (G)does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil; 6 (H)does not rejoice in iniquity, but (I)rejoices in the truth; 7 (J)bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

    8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 (K)For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

    11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For (L)now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then (M)face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

    13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. ☝☝☝⌚⏰⌚⏰

  2. Amen! That was me, I lived in that situation for 30 years. I became a believer the first few years into the marriage. The marriage was a nightmare. I stayed trying to win him, believing I was doing right. God later showed me, it’s time to go!! God blessed me and gave me a wonderful Godly husband who loves God, and me. I couldn’t be more blessed the last 10 years! I’ve always felt this to. God has called us to peace! Not bondage and abuse!

  3. Thank you, Mena! I was tormented for nearly 15 years by attacks in my mind (because of other people’s understanding of the scriptures, that I was an adulteress) regarding my remarriage.  My first husband left for another woman.  I didn’t want a divorce – he abandoned me and he filed for divorce.  Afterwards, I met a man that loves YHVH.  Keeps His commandments and has the testimony of Yeshua!  How is that not Yah ordained?  But some people would say I’m still in sin and should have never remarried. Thank you for speaking boldly of the bondage these folks put on people because of ignorance.  Thank you for lifting someone’s heavy burden of condemnation!!!!  Thank YOU Yeshua!!!  For your precious blood that washes every one clean.  For there is no one good, no not one…but some folks think they are good.

  4. Amen! I was one of those suffering women some years ago, who with my 2 children were told all kinds of things by “Christians” with no Holy Spirit revelation. Shaming me for all kinds of things while my children and I suffered endlessly. Their voices telling me to stay or if I did this or that then things would get better. We were being emotionally, spiritually and mentally abused by these voices and it really felt no different than what we experienced at home. One day a supernatural strength came over me and an empowerment in a split second that I knew could have only come from the Lord. I took my kids and left with only $5 in my pocket. It was not easy but the peace was like soothing oil. I later met and married a wonderful man who had and has a heart for Jesus. He adopted my kids and has loved them as Jesus loves. June 1 we will be married for 17 years.  Listen to Jesus, hear His voice…it is not the voice of “shame and shoulds”.  If you do find yourself leaving an abusive situation, it’s ok to get help and your help will most likely come in unexpected places. Take time to see the trauma for yourself and children… sit with Jesus with it and in His timing and with His love you will begin to find your voice and see His plans for you. Don’t rush into other relationships whether friendly or romantic… leaving situations like this are like a major surgery…you know it’s necessary, yes it will hurt, and YES there is a recovery / healing time that is absolutely necessary to move through and onto a better life for you and your children. Much love and prayers to anyone going through some serious stuff…Jesus loves you and you are precious!
