Co-Dependency, Abuse, and Addictions (eBook, ePUB)

Produktbeschreibung

CO-DEPENDENCY, ABUSE, AND ADDICTIONS describes several types of destructive relationship patterns, also abuse and addictions that leave a trail of devastation behind.

Dysfunctional families or relationships are fraught with co-dependency, addiction, emotional, verbal, physical, sexual, child abuse, violence, and many broken relationships due to the absence of safe boundaries. These traits are akin to a millstone around the neck, dragging the child toward the same sinful patterns as their dysfunctional parents.

Abuse is a word most people tend to shy away from, and in all honesty, we all are guilty of abuse at some level. And this is because of our sinful nature. We all fall short of God's command to love others unconditionally. Abuse is a learned behavior. Abusing someone or substances is not a person's behavior walking in fellowship with the Lord. Any relationship plagued by abuse or addictive behaviors will eventually have to choose one of three paths:

The abuser admits fault, sees his or her behavior as harmful, and changes.

The abused person walks away, at least temporarily to seek out counseling.

The abuse is allowed to continue indefinitely, to the harm of both parties.

The most extreme cure for abuse is separation.

The abuser or addict will only change through genuine repentance and God's saving grace. A person who can understand the nature of their sin will feel godly sorrow that leads to repentance, salvation, and a clear conscience.

Change is a personal choice that we must seek.

ABUSE STEMS FROM SELFISH DESIRES AND IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Autorenporträt

I am qualified in various areas: Hairdressing, Recruitment, IPSC - Affiliate Member APSO, Conveyancing, and Web Design.

I am a born-again Bible-believing Christian who engages in daily Bible study which is my moral compass for everyday living. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 says, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works"

What motivates my writing first and foremost is to glorify our loving and merciful Triune God. And reaching out to the lost, broken-hearted, and downtrodden by planting seeds that point people to Christ His only begotten Son who came to set the captives free is indeed a worthy cause, which forms part of the great commission.

I am sixty years of age and have been married for 23 wonderful years. My husband is my best friend, and we live a sober, healthy life and have no children. I am passionate about animals, children, and victims of abuse. I am an overcomer of severe past emotional and physical abuse which I strongly oppose, praise the Lord, and have gained extensive experience.

As a mature born again, God-fearing, Bible-believing Christian, I specifically studied the Bible in the areas that relate to narcissism and co-dependent dysfunctional families. Furthermore, I have in the past been involved in prison and orphan ministries.

As a Christian, I believe that the Bible is the final authority on all things and not man and thus believe in nouthetic (Biblical) rather than (secular) counseling when it comes to seeking answers to our everyday problems." Jesus the Word" brings healing to those who go in search of the truth that will set them free. Once set free, you are free indeed.
