my whole life i've been waiting for my family to treat me like a girl and stop abusing me and causing me so much harm that it is one day going to be irrepairable. i am not a child anymore to be used at their whim for their purposes. i don't have eternal youth.

i completely understand why people want to kill themselves now because life is really not worth living when people supposedly created in the image of God from my birth lack faith to treat me as a should be treated as a living being, as a female.

I have yet to find one person on earth who has enough faith and strength to withstand the evil of my family, and i am losing my strength and my faith

because of people's judgement, not God's, people's

only the Lord can test our hearts, not arrogant people who just make it their whim to hurt and harm others

I will keep you in my prayers.

Sometimes God's tests are very difficult to endure, yet he promises to us that He will never tempt us with more than we can bear:

He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.
1 corinthians 10:13

When God puts us through trals it is to purify our faith, to teach us something that our spirit must learn in order to move forward in God's plan for us. It may be to learn forgiveness or patience or humility or how to love our enemies or simply how to accept God's will. Whatever the case, He promises us that we will be delivered from our troubles and that we will be vicorious over them.

When you are feeling troubled, remember and recite this passsage internally or aloud. It helped me when I was desperate and feeling hopeless:

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. - Psalm 23:4-6

You can also ask God what it is He wants you to do so you will be able to put these troubles behind you, and then be on the lookout for an answer. One of the things I do is to tell all my sorrows to Jesus and just speak to him as though he was standing right next to me. It always helped calm my spirit. Ask him to comfort you in times of need. Ask him for help, for strength, for patience, for wisdom. Beg him for help. Tell him how much it hurts and how much you want to keep your faith but are having trouble because of the heavy crosses that you have to bear. He will not forsake you.

continued...(ran out of editing time)


By the way, I know a little about what you are going through because I also have parents that ruin my self esteem and I have to endure it also, but even in the midst of pain, I remind myself to be thankful to God that I have them and to be thankful for the good qualities that they have. Being in a state of gratefulness is also a powerful weapon against suffering. The bible says that we should be thankful in all situations and it is not because God wants us to thank him for everything, it is because God knows that it will keep our souls in a positive, loving state.

I always include in my prayers that all people will find peace of mind and will finally embrace God as their savior so that they can find the strength that they need.

I'm sad to say my dad doesn't know how to show love. Going thr everyday is pretty much a living nightmare for me. He needs me to be here so he's not alone.
I asked God why can't we even talk to each other. The Lord showed me as a lil child. That he never did talk to me. That I sat by him as he watched TV. No wonder some shows I can't stand to watch. And some are comforting to me. I've asked God to help us. I know God will fix the problem or keep giving me the grace to keep on going.
My dad was damaged by his parents. I was damaged. Now I make sure I am not doing the same thing to my children or grandchildren.
One time my daughter and I agreed that everytime we said something and it hurt our feelings we would tell the other one that you hurt my feelings.
We realized that evry few minutes one of us was saying you hurt my feelings.
We started being much more careful of what we said.
We also realized we were being hurt by the other when neither one of us were meaning to hurt each other at all.
We also had to learn to not be so sensitive.
