Abuse is a powerful weapon; destroying its victim's sense of value and robbing their voice. Years of ongoing physical, emotional, and sexual abuse had reduced Bonnie’s voice to a mere whisper.
In this episode of “Becoming Whole,” we are honored to let Bonnie use her voice to tell her story.
The fact that Bonnie would sit at a microphone to share with you reveals the triumph of her healing. Her words are transparent revealing a beautiful honesty with God even through the details of her abuse.
And while she’s experienced healing, Bonnie is still doing the work with her Regeneration Ministries counselor, Anne Donahue.
This conversation is a unique opportunity to hear from both counselor and client; how their partnership of Spiritual Coaching and prayer operates.
Hearing Bonnie tell her story, Anne affirm and encourage Bonnie, and hearing the Lord through it all is tender and powerful.
Light a candle. Invite Jesus to listen to Bonnie’s story with you. And, let Him tell you what He wants for you on this journey to “Becoming Whole.”
Highlights:
“Abuse is an invasion of our boundaries. It is an attack of our personhood. It usually happens when someone stronger than we are overpowers us physically, emotionally or sexually. It affects our value.”
I was told on a daily basis that I was never wanted
We don’t always realize we’re in such a hard situation until we share it with others or until we are freed from that situation
Homework:
Retreat vs Repeat - do you see this coping mechanism in your life? Are you running away from pain and trauma? Or do you find yourself repeating the narrative you grew up with?
Journal - Try using this daily practice to record gratitude and to ask God the hard questions
