After realizing by poll numbers that 70% of people today have been abused in a major way, I feel it is great service to write a book about general abuse issues. I KNOW FIRST HAND HOW IT FEELS TO BE ABUSED, BLACKBALLED, OR VICTIMIZED, THUS, THIS IS WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK TO HELP THE ABUSED, THAT REALLY ARE THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD TODAY! The act of abuse can present itself in many ways, as this book will explain. Always reach out in love, but do not be naive. Do not cast your pearls before swine as Christ Jesus said! With a goal of an emotionally healed heart, we can see people's motives generally. Do not allow us to be abused, but never stop reaching out to others in love. Reach out to others without expecting anything in return and always live by the Golden Rule for this is the covenant that we can give back to GOD to allow Him to love us to the fullest, by Christ Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. We need to follow the love commands in the gospels that Jesus spoke to the disciples and the world about in (Matt. 22:37-40) (Mark 12:30-33) (Luke 10:27) (John 15:9-17). I am about to show many of the various forms of abuse and I will give an immediate solution to the problem, if possible within this book. I have repeated some things on purpose in this book, for that is the way GOD wanted it, so it would sink into the heart better concerning the better forms of information within this book told in different ways. I pray that when you read this book you will associate your life with what I talk about, but do not continue to dwell on the various examples, although they are eye opening and some are quite humorous. Later in this book, I will give general solutions for abuse, along with self-love, healing the heart, allowing the heart to be filled with the Holy Spirit etc. In order to start to heal from abuse we need to accept that we have an emotional problem and that we need healing. To heal from abuse, the act of talking it out with yourself and with someone else is the second step to your healing. Often times it is good to take up a hobby, such as exercising, sewing, cooking, gardening, a certain sport, or whatever else you might like to do, in order to relax from being abused during this life. If we learn to give, we will receive blessings from beyond this world. In essence, to heal from abuse we must do the opposite of what was done to us. Thus, let us be a giver and not a receiver, for Jesus gave every part of his short life to others while here physically. Helping people who have been abused in the homeless shelters, jails, or people living on the streets, friends, family etc. would be the ultimate act of giving your time to those who have been abused. Giving donations to organizations who help these people, spreading the Good News about GOD'S love and forgiveness or talking to them with a listening loving heart, are some things that needs to be done concerning helping them start a new life. Before reading this book, it may be wise to see what Webster has to say about the word "abuse." To misuse something or somebody by force, to put to wrong use, or misuse ones authority, position, power, wealth etc. To treat badly, handle roughly or cruelly, injure by so doing it to animals, people, or machines. To presume or assume upon and take advantage of kindness or hospitality; to betray confidence in secret or to be subjected to verbal insult, to scold loudly and coarsely, to blame, to express disapproval by finding fault with, to mislead by being deceptive to others as an act of abuse. I have good news literally, for with all of the depressing negative news that many times has to do with abuse, there is a website called HappyNews.com and I recommend getting familiar with this website to get positive news.
