November 18, 2025When Abuse Leaves Lasting Wounds

Here is the truth you need to hold onto: God never wanted this for you, and He is deeply committed to your healing.
He sees the wounds no one else sees. He understands the layers of pain you carry. And He invites you into a place of restoration, safety, dignity, and renewed identity.
