DAILY PROMPT:
Sure, you turned out pretty good, but is there anything you wish had been different about your childhood? If you have kids, is there anything you wish were different for them?
One thing I would change – no more rapes or abuse of women. No more hurting children who end up as wounded wives and mothers. Only Jesus, love, healing, peace and forgiveness. End of story.
HELL ON EARTH
2012 Diana Rasmussen
A story of a girl who was abused and raped, and the healing Jesus provides…
V1
She was only a child, she tried to tell him no,
But he would not listen, a part of her he stole.
She felt used and dirty, couldn’t wash away the stains.
She bottled up her emotions, and buried her pain.
CHORUS
She would smile on the outside,
but she was dying on the inside,
She knew sorrow and shame.
She’d been through hell on earth.
V2
She turned to drugs and razors, tried to cut the pain away.
Went from lover to lover, but no one could fill that place.
Jesus met her in her anguish, He carried away her sorrow.
In His eyes, she was blameless, an innocent child again.
CHORUS
She would smile on the outside,
but she was dying on the inside,
She knew sorrow and shame.
She’d been through hell on earth.
CHORUS 2
Jesus said, “I saw what He did to you;
nothing is hidden from His gaze.
And I AM coming back soon,
I’ll avenge your enemies.”
cuz, she’d been through hell on earth.
GOD’S PROMISE TO YOU:
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). (John 10:10 AMP)
The Lord lives! Blessed be my Rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted, The God Who avenges me and subdues peoples under me, Who delivers me from my enemies; yes, You lift me up above those who rise up against me; You deliver me from the man of violence. (Psalm 18:46-48 AMP)
If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God’s] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord. (Romans 12:18-20 AMP)
My Prayer for You:
Dear Lord,
I know that there are many who have been wounded and hurt by wicked, evil men. I know that You are good, and You did not want them to be hurt – what those men did was wrong. I know You give every person the choice to choose good or evil, and that some men choose evil. I thank you Lord, that I can trust you to deal with these evil people, because You promised to take care of it. I trust in You, my hope is in You, and I cannot hold onto this hate anymore. I give them (all of them) and my hate to You Lord. Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for You are my praise.
And Lord, I would ask that you protect, heal, and deliver all the women that have been hurt, raped, or abused, in the mighty Name of Jesus.
