A story about an incidence that my daughter went through is in Our Voices. Titled: Becoming a Killer. It's about dating violence. Not a pretty story but might serve as a warning to some who allow a guy into their lives, knowing they aren't good.

I read that story, Dianne. I can't imagine how I'd feel if my daughter was hurt by a guy like that. I know how much it hurt when she was young and teased by other kids. Just before my daughter met her now husband, I prayed to God to bring her a godly, gentle man. And that's what she got, praise God.
You have had so much to deal with, Dianne. You must have an awesome faith.

I agree with Bluebird... your faith has been tested over and over and yet you are steadfast. Truly an inspiration to us all Dianne. I read the story, too. I cannot imagine the feelings and emotions involved here or how you managed to control either. What a powerful story. Please tell your daughter that she is so admired from afar. I see she has her Mother's character.

Just go to boomerwomenspeak.com and instead of clicking on the forums, go to the top right corner of the page. You'll see a sketch of 3 women's faces that say Our Voices. Click on that and look for the title Becoming a Killer by Dianne.

My alternatives have been limited. I can give up and hate God or I can decide to roll with the punches and move on. But, I never wanted to actually kill someone before. I had to really do some work on myself to not hurt that guy.

Okay, thanks, found it! Oh my Dianne, I wonder if he has abused anyone else since? There are career fields where you find many abusers, i.e., lawyers, doctors (the God syndrome), police, etc., and they lurk elsewhere, too.

Sure am glad your daughter is out of that situation.

Dianne, I sent the change to my web master about the author. She is back from vacation. I'll go check to see if the mistake was corrected.

Can certainly understand your frame of mind at the time. I'm sure I would have been searching the resources of my mind to come up with ways to inflict hurt on him also.

Sounds as if, he understood what you daughter was telling him.
Truly hope no one else falls victim to his abusive manner in the future.

It amazing how God put all things under your feet...with the ability to move you forward strong.
