Thank you for sharing this part of the video. I thought it very thought provoking and emotionally touching. I cried a little once and then more later. That was during the reading of the book about Mister Daddy. I’m thinking to myself I don’t have a problem separating the fact that abuse happens and that God is not like the abuser. Then, Mister Daddy, Abba, hugs the child closely, I think to express His safety to her, and I cry, “How could He do that?” It did not feel safe to me, not that-He- is not safe, but that maybe-he-is not safe.
I was dreading it coming to a close. I had my eye on the dot at the bottom coming to the end fearing I would be left hanging. I wanted desperately to hear what you had to say to the counselor, care giver about how to talk- be to the person. I was getting worried I wouldn’t hear it. Thankfully you had a teeny bit of time twice to convey that we are to BE as Jesus to them in our listening, body language …….. …etc…..
I think I got that right.
Thanks again, Dorothy
This video made me cry! I have been in biblical counseling for 3 1/3 years, initially for bulimia/anorexia but that was the outward manifestation of trying to keep 9 years of sexual abuse buried and under control! I struggle so much with wanting to keep fighting exactly what she talked about! Thank you for sharing!
