I have nothing to gain by sharing my truth except for the rehashing of wounds that will never fully heal.
As a “Roman Catholic” I pray that God will examine your heart and help you to have a character that is reflective of Jesus. It is apparent that you are a fig tree with leaves but with no fruit.
As a “wife, mother, and memaw” I pray no one in your family ever experiences the horror of having their body violated and the relentless invisible scars that plague the mind for years after. Most importantly I pray they never experience what it feels like to be called sick and a liar for finding their voice, even in anonymity.
“And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; and the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.”
Genesis 2:18, 21-22
