A Spiritual
Perspective
The burden of being sexually abused is a heavy load to carry, but you don't need to do it alone. Please seek help and encouragement from friends, family, counselors and others who can help. Here at TheHopeLine, we truly care about you and want to help you recover mentally, physically and spiritually.
We want you to know that God loves you and his heart is breaking with yours over what you have endured. This world is a sinful, broken place where evil exists, but God promises that He will help us through the hard times if we let Him. If you are thinking to yourself, Why would God allow this to happen, please read Why do Bad Things Happen?
Jesus says in the Bible, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)
He also assures us that He will be with us in hard times: “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God.” (Isaiah 43:2-3a)
