Deep, Dark, Shameful Secrets...need to be LET OUT!
MOLEST
1. to bother, interfere with, or annoy.
2.to make indecent sexual advances to.
3.to assault sexually.
MOLESTATION
1. harass, harry, trouble, plague, hector, torment.
To many who read these words, their definition is PAIN and USED.
I have been amazed for over ten (10) years how many young girls and boys have been molested. I have been placed in a position in my life which affords me the opportunity for young and older women to share their deepest, darkest, hidden, shameful, painful secrets. The first that I will address is molestation. The second will be rape. The third will be abortion. They are very commonly linked together in many ways. However, because of the emotional trauma and pain, we are not able to untangle our emotions long enough to realize the root or core problem. It reminds me of a fragile necklace that is in one round ball. I lose patience in trying to untangle the mess and knot. As children and even adults, we lose control of our emotions if we try to sit and remember the incident that led us to this mess in our lives. We feel like if we cry...we may never stop. We can't cry because we were told that we "better stop that crying" or else. We don't want to "go back and relive those moments" because of fear of pain again. So, we keep stuffing and pushing aside our TRUE inmost feelings. We definitely do NOT trust anyone. Most of the time, the molester was someone whom we should have been able to trust. I have heard and read countless different circumstances and situations. However, the common ground and fact here is that molestation is REAL and it HURTS forever UNTIL we find out how to HEAL!! The Bible is true and clear that satan is a LIAR! He is always trying to steal, kill and destroy life. When a child is molested, their innocence is stolen and they are a victim of other's sins (satan's work). The child becomes a teen and feels used, unworthy, unloved, unprotected, defiled, dirty because of what was done to them. These are NOT facts, they are feelings! If they continue to make decision based on these feelings, they will begin having sex at a young age because they do not feel worthy of respect from men. They also do not trust men. They feel betrayed. These are facts that I have heard and read many times. You may or may not feel exactly like this. It would take a long time for me to type all of the different feelings. However, I encourage you to start typing what you went through, experienced and maybe still hurting from. It begins the healing process. You can do so under a pretend name to protect your privacy. I will try to write daily as I have LOTS to get out of my heart to help others heal. SO, please encourage me to write by posting replies and questions and visit our website www.tearstotreasures.com Praying for you!!!!
