There's so many women in the world that have experienced enormous amounts of pain in their life. Some of it we've done to ourselves by making bad choices and some of it has been brought on by other people.
This week I heard a story of a young girl, 9 years old, that was impregnated by her mothers 26 year old boyfriend. I can't even imagine the amount of pain that young girl has gone through and will go through as a result of her mothers decision. The mother is now in prison as well as the rapist, the babies father but that young girl still has her whole life ahead of her. I just want to take her into my arms and tell her it's going to be ok, and she will make it through this.
It's bad enough to be sexually assaulted at any age, but then on top of that to be pushed into motherhood at nine years old. I can't even fathom. It makes me just so angry to see the selfishness of man and now that young mother has no one to turn to in this world.
Ok,I need to talk about something a little more upbeat and hopeful!
Speaking of finding hope in the midst of life. This week on the Her Freedom show Deanna Allen from Daughters of Destiny will be my guest. You don't want to miss this!
