It is not new, but a legacy of shame that has often been silently passed down from generation to generation. Biblically, sexual intimacy is designed only to be shared within the boundaries of a loving marriage relationship between a man and a woman. The trauma of your past experiences need not prevent you from having a healthy and fulfilling life. You may feel powerless, betrayed, confused and rejected by both people and God. The cycle of these feelings, refueled by your painful memories, can be broken.
Help is available to heal and restore the damage.
There are now trained Christian therapists and support groups available to help you overcome the destruction caused by abuse. God loves you very much. With His help and healing power, you can be set free from the pain and shame of the past. If you have not been reborn spiritually, you can be. He will be with you as you begin your journey to wholeness.
