Daily Drop Cap. I use Firefox and the other day opened my page in IE, sad to discover that for some reason, the drop caps I normally use don't appear in Internet Explorer browsers. So when I can, I'll add a little flair from Jessica's site.
Okay ~ some reading for you!
Elizabeth Esther has a great article up right now, titled "How to talk to someone living inside an abusive church/cult group."
Cindy wrote an invaluable five-part series called "Cognitive Dissonance and Bible Study Following Spiritual Abuse." Here is part one.I am reading Thin Places by Mary DeMuth and will post a review in the next few weeks.
If you have any recommended reading, feel free to leave a comment or email!

Thanks for sharing these links. I have been the victim of several kinds of abuse and Spiritual abuse is very real and the aftermath can be just as hard as any other form of abuse.
ReplyDeleteI found this prayer and start my devotions with it every day:
ReplyDeleteI arise today
Through a mighty strength:
God's power to guide me,
God's might to uphold me,
God's eyes to watch over me;
God's ear to hear me,
God's word to give me speech,
God's hand to guard me,
God's way to lie before me,
God's shield to shelter me,
God's host to secure me.
- Bridgid of Gael
Bless you.
Sisterlisa, I agree ~ it can be devastating. I hope that you continue to find healing and recovery.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing that prayer, amulbunny. What a way to re-focus and start the day!
