He Gives Me the Strength to Face My Dad
Yolanda, 14

Abuse. It is a scary and very real word to me. I am not saying that it happens all the time, but it does happen often. Sometimes it’s not always physical abuse, but it’s mental abuse, too. I think what hurts the worst is that I didn’t do a thing to bring on my dad’s anger. It’s not so much the physical abuse that hurts; it’s the mental abuse. It hurts me so deeply that I become very afraid of him. He has made me so insecure about myself that I have subconsciously put up a wall around me. There are only a few special people who have gotten through this shield, and God is one of them. He has gotten past the wall because He gives me strength, courage, and hope.

On the days that I just don’t feel like living, He gives me the strength to do it. He gives me the strength to face my dad and the rest of the world. He gives me hope that maybe someday my dad will see how much he hurts me and stop the abuse. And maybe that will come sooner now because, most important, God gave me the strength to finally talk to someone about what my dad was doing. God just gives me so much that my dad doesn’t or can’t give me. That is one of the reasons He has gotten past my wall. I am very grateful to have God in my life. Amen!

I'm glad for you tourbi that you've found a source to help you be strong, we all need something or someone to hold on to sometimes. It must be awful for you being treated badly by your father. One of Louis Haye's affirmations is that we should never give our power away.
"I am one with the power and the wisdom of the universe, I claim my power, I stand up easily for myself".
Take care! xx
