    Such a graceful woman, Dorothy is. I really think Joni's daughter saying to Dorothy 'why didn't you leave?" is so insensitive and immature. A powerful interview with some lessons to be learnt. God definitely can turn your life around.

    As a man, I'm EXTREMELY ANGRY and hurt and ashamed on her behalf. How could she and why did she have to go through all that pain??? I'm so so sorry she went through the pain and so so grateful to the eternal Father that He rescued her from this hell!

    Part 2... I ended up trying to take my life & was hospitalized a couple times after that. I had raised our sons. I was a stay at home mom. I am eternally grateful to the Lord for second chances. It's by His grace that I lived. I am still trying to rebuild my relationships with our sons. I also forgive my ex husband & pray for his salvation. Thank you for bringing abuse to the forefront. I have victory through Christ!!! My identity is in Him not what a person calls me or treats me. Love you ALL, BUT GOD LOVES YOU MORE ❤❤❤

    After years of moving out from the abuser, I am still living with the trauma of it. Even moved out of state and he followed me. And lives in same Apt complex as me. So now I'm trying to move back to my home state to get away from him and also health reasons. I'm praying to the Lord about it and for the Lord to make it happen,if it's His will for me. I feel like I have to get away or it will be the end of me. Mentally.) Lord help me with forgiveness and resentment. I don't want to live with that, and the toxic feelings and state of mind.🙏

    Dorothy’s story reminds me of Yvette Cade in Clinton Maryland but her abusive spouse wound up dosing her with gasoline in a soda bottle at her job in public at 10:30 am. She had I believe was 60% over her body and particularly in her face who was a beautiful black woman who has had several surgeries and this is why he is in prison for the past 17 years. Her story should be heard. She is a strong woman and was still determined to live and is grateful to God for still being here.

    The Holy Spirit convicts us and leads us in all truths!! The Holy Spirit gives us signs and tells us that the relationship, and the person that we are in love with is totally wrong and not good for us..... but sometimes we do not listen and have free choice. The same happened to me and I was married for 26 years and it was the most destructive relationship of my adult life. I had to divorce her, even though I did not believe in divorce. I am a 53 year old male. Men can suffer from emotional and physical abuse from their wives. It is a very shameful thing...... but God 🙏🙌🌹🇮🇱💕❤️

  • @carolamoore72

    I was the person that always said, why doesn't she just leave and not go back. I never understood why women would stay in an abusive marriage or relationship. I know that people would say, you don't know what it is like , unless you are or have been through it. That is true because I have never been in any abusive relationship, but I was always there when my mom did. Yes, I was the child that watched it. The fear that I had growing up was awful to say the least. When you have to run in the middle of the night because you were afraid of being shot, is something no child should have to go through. That is why I encourage women to leave and get help at the first signs of abuse if you are married. If you are not married, don't get married to someone that you have seen signs of abuse in, because it will get worse, unless that person gets healed and delivered from it. Trust me, the children suffer more than you realize, because I did. I thank God for keeping me and my mom safe those year's. To the women reading this post, don't allow any man to control, abuse, or manipulate you into a life that God did not create for you to live! ❤️🙏❤️🙏🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️❤️

    I did also live this and ai was not educated, or even out of school.
    We were married when our son was born.
    I had just finished 9th grade, and I was going back to school, so I thought.
    He told me, You have a child to raise.
    I was not raised in Church, Did not know who God was, I had heard the word Jesus, not who He was.
    God has brought me a long way.
    I had already lived Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Sexual abuse as a child.
    I kept coming back, because I did not believe I could support our 4 sons.
    He always told me No one will want you, if they do it will only be for one thing, and you are not good at that either.
    God has shown me who He Is and how important I am to Him.
    My Identity Is Him
    I Am A Daughter Of The King of Kings and Lord of lords
    And I am His favorite, just like you are His favorite.
    God gives us all a Love beyond measure, A True Love That Surpasses All Understanding

I am on the other side of Verbal, Emotional, Sexual and some Physical abuse and I'm hopeful that the Holy Ghost will completely heal the deep depths of ALL that's down in there!!! I've always said the exact same sentence that you said I'd rather be hit than be abused way down on the inside of my spirit, it's hard to come back from those words!!! Don't get me wrong please bc it's very hard to come back from a husband of almost 28 YEARS giving me a CONCUSSION as well...
    I look forward to hearing your book from audible!!! ✝️❤️✝️ Once again thank you so much for sharing this with us!!! ❤️❤️

I will buy Dorothy's book even though it'll be difficult to read, b'cuz I love hearing how God brings all who call on His name, through the fire, and even though living through painful experiences, God brings triumphant victory.

    I have been down the same road as Dorothy. There are so many reasons abused women remain stuck that's why it is vital to have a counsellor familiar with abuse and how to advise the person. Otherwise the abused will stay stuck or be dead. Even with counselling it takes time to heal. My abuse was not physical, it was emotional so the low self esteem needed to be repaired. Two of my male Christian counselors when I was married was useless. That was sad. Recognizing abuse is the first step so read books on it so you don't justify his actions. Then try to get help. Thank God the lord brought people in my life to pulling me out of the black hole.

    Joni, I would love to be sitting at that table, telling my story.. a story of child abuse, and living in a haunted house, my grandparents telling me about Jesus.. school, being picked on by other kids, all while I was depressed, and suicidal at 12. I had tried to overdose on aspirin. At 15 I was molested.. then spent 2 and a half months in a mental ward in the hospital. Growing up, involved in a seance in which a demon tried to enter my body. My eyes even changed colour, to an ice blue. My normal eye colour is bluish Gray. After I got married, I was delivered of at least 5 demons. I have been saved, idk how long now, cause all throughout my life I got saved, backslid, repented, and ... repeat.. I am now 54, saved and filled with the Holy Ghost. I'm so thankful to Jesus for taking me through my childhood, adolescence, to now. I have struggles now, but I know I'm saved, and my past is gone.
