Sexual Abuse- A WOMAN'S SILENT PAIN!

Last week I had the opportunity to speak at a women's conference at a local church. Some topics came up about hurt, emotional blockage and illness surrounding the pain of childhood sexual abuse. Women from 25 through 50 groaned in unison as the petition for prayer was raised for that particular healing. Healing... are we really healed from such a traumatic experience? Or do we suffer in silence and allow the pain to fester behind a smile, all the while proliferating in our hearts, minds,spirits and bodies to transform itself into the bondage of cancer, diabetes, heart conditions and more? Why do we suffer in silence? When does the healing begin. Our next workshop will delve into those questions and yes the Reid Center is equiped to launch it's first support group!
Do you have answers to these questions. Please share with others your breakthroughs, journey, sorrows and triumphs. We need healing in this area of our lives. It's time to pull the cover off of this subject and allow the light of God to burn it up. I'm not a fan of the Pope, but even he has conceded that enough is enough!

Until Next Time.. Be well...
Dr. Reid
