Dear Survivor


I want you to know that you are not alone on this journey. As we walk this path together, I hope these words offer you comfort, healing, and a sense of renewed strength. You are a Survivor, and your resilience shines brightly.


Today, I want to remind you that your journey is unique, and your experiences are valid. It’s not easy to confront the pain caused by abuse, but you are courageous. Through faith, may you find solace, support, and restoration.


Scripture reminds us that God is our refuge, our ever-present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1). It is in Him that we can find comfort, safety, and healing. Allow yourself to fully lean on His unfailing love, for God is eager to walk beside you, mending the wounds brought upon you.


In the midst of healing, it is crucial to embrace self-compassion. You may find yourself battling feelings of guilt, shame, or worthlessness, but remember that these emotions do not define who you are. 

You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), deserving of love, joy, and peace. Embrace the journey of self-discovery, learning to speak kindness to yourself and nurturing the beautiful soul within.


It is important to remember that the healing process takes time. 

Allow yourself to heal at your own pace. 

Embrace the small victories along the way. 

 Surround yourself with individuals who uplift, encourage, and inspire you. 

Seek out support groups or counseling services where you can find solace in the company of fellow survivors who understand your journey intimately. 

Remember, you do not have to face this alone.

Know that each step forward moves you closer to restoration. 

Take one day at a time. 

Acknowledge your progress and remind yourself of the incredible strength that lies within you.

Finally, never forget that healing is not just about surviving; it’s about thriving. Give yourself permission to dream again, to hope for a future filled with joy and renewed purpose. 

Embrace the incredible resilience that has carried you through the darkest times. You are capable of reclaiming your life and moving forward with a newfound strength that can empower others.


The path ahead may be challenging at times, but the love and strength of God will guide you every step of the way. You are not defined by the traumas you’ve experienced but by the beauty and resilience that has emerged from them. May you be filled with hope, grace, and an unwavering belief in your own strength.


With love and support,
