Welcome!

Dear Readers,

Hello and Good morning! It is Tuesday September 11, 2007. My thoughts and prayers today are for all those who lost friends, coworkers, or family on the tragic day 6 years ago. I also pray that somehow our nation uses the signs of the times to come to know and depend on Christ. He is the only one that is able to bring healing and peace.
For those of you that just happened upon this blog, let me introduce myself. I am a young woman (24) attending Liberty Theological Seminary, in my first semester. I am pursuing my Master's of Divinity in Pastoral Counseling.

Upon graduation (in about 3 years) I want to be a counselor working with military women and families, especially women/children that have been abused. God brought healing to me when I went through my hell, and I want to show other people the joy and peace, and true healing that only comes through Jesus Christ. He promised to give us peace, and He follows through.

A main focus of this blog will be for rape and abuse victims and survivors. When we go through hell on earth we need an outlet, a safe place to turn, a place that will give us answers and show that we are not alone. Hopefully this blog will provide that.

I also want to use this blog to show that not only are you not alone in your journey from abuse victim to abuse survivor, but you can thrive again. It may not seem like it, but you can live joyfully after rape.
