Domestic Violence & A Higher PowerDomestic Violence & A Higher Power > Domestic Violence Facts There is a passage of scripture from which all of us should derive strength and courage and it is the one that appears at the top of the page. The entire Psalm 91 reads:
Do you believe in angels? Noone here will try to force any particular religious belief upon you, but we do want you to know that there was One who loved all of us enough to give His life for us. Sometimes in our lives everything just seems perfect, nothing can go wrong. At other times, it seems that everything we do is a struggle. Could it be that on those "good days" God is carrying us and on the "very bad days", He put us down just to see what we could do on our own? Do you believe in prayer and that all prayers are answered? I truly believe that all prayers are answered, but what some people don't understand is - sometimes the answer is "No". What does the Bible say about domestic violence?
No one deserves to suffer the phychological, the emotional, or the physical pain at the hands of someone who is supposed to love them. It is not your fault, it is not your duty to try and change him and it is not your responsibility to stay in a violent environment. God placed in all of us special talents and abilities which are unique to any other person on earth. Some of us spend our entire lives trying to understand what those talents and abilities are and sadly, some of us never find the answer. So use your talents and abilities to make a change and in so doing, help those around you. Any of the professional organizations in the state of Tennessee will help you in making a change in your life and if you let Him, God will help you with the rest. "We love him, because he first loved us."
