I Am A Survivor - Tamar's Redemption Tuesdays

Sharing your story is extremely exposing and requires an extra dose of courage, but I hope, I know, others will be encouraged if not blessed by your vulnerability. Sexual abuse happens. The time has finally come when we can talk about it -- and in turn, help and protect others. This journey of sharing is hard, but I'm glad to be a part of it!

TAMAR'S REDEMPTION TUESDAYS

How We Hurt, How We Heal


I am a survivor. My life choices can no longer stay chained to the pain of my childhood sexual abuse.

Instead of self-protecting, I try to trust.

Instead of depending too much on myself or others, I try to rely more on God.

Instead of controlling, I try to surrender.

But breaking those chains didn’t happen overnight.
