8a. Ladies In Emotionally, Physically, Mentally, or Verbally Abusive Relationships, My Heart Aches For You.

There are 2 types of people in this world - respectful people and disrespectful people. 

As you get to know and develop relationships with respectful people, you find they become more respectful and caring towards you.  A deep, safe, secure bond develops withing the safety and security of respectful people.

As you delve into relationships with disrespectful people, you find with time they only become more disrespectful and insistent on getting their way and squashing your feelings, needs and desires.

Today's show is my heart's cry for ladies who are dating, or in a married relationship, with the second type of person - the disrespectful one.  

Today, I want to speak to you...I want to speak life and hope into you, I want to give you courage, I want to share with you resources God placed along the way that changed my life and has helped me to work through the chaos that surrounds relationships with disrespectful people. 

Women are my heart.  God's women are my heart.  I'm pretty sure God has allowed me to walk through these relationships because they break His heart too.  He says every tear that is cried, hears every mean and derogatory word aimed to pierce your soul and knows every wound you bare.  Run to Him.  Trust Him.  Follow Him.  Serve and worship only Him.  He will bring caring, nurturing and healthy people into your life to support you and help in your soul's healing.
