I have had Faith my entire life.
I now feel almost completely rejected from a lifetime of Abuse (sexual, physical, emotional, psycholocial and financial) starting at age 5, through an over 2 decade marriage (sacramental, with 4 children), financial ruin from spouse (I was a full-time, stay at home Mother, homemaker and prolific community volunteer). One person ended all that, and I am as a widow, but my children’s father is alive. I am homeless, homebound from an accident, jobless, and penniless. Started back at Church but any Faith that I have left is a thread, and not much of a thread left. Feel souless and dead inside. When young, despite all the trauma, had HOPE. Not anymore. I wish that I could feel positive but without a support system and what one needs to live, to get up again, once more after every fall, I don’t have the strength.

  Hi Ann – Thank you for sharing. Don’t give up! I’ve been through sexual, physical, and the other abuses you mentioned.
  Those are tough circumstances but God can redeem them, as I know from personal experience.
  We have prayer groups of wives that meet during the week by zoom and phone call. There is no cost to participate.
  I encourage you to get plugged in for support. I will pray for you after writing this.
