Note:
As for the acceptance reference, I won't say just accept it to people who have been abused, they would have to realize it happened, but not allow what happened affect their life going forward, and that can only be down through counseling.
Amen
Also, children feel everything, they are very sensitive to emotions, because they are new to the world, this is why the Bible gives parents the responsibility to train up a child: we all have sinned, the parents gave children to school and school kicked God out.
Mothers, if your daughter tells you that she's been sexually abused by your boyfriend or husband, don't get mad at her nor should you punish her. Instead, nurture her back to where she can function and get rid of the problem, which is the man, because he is a predator. If you can't nurture her back to health yourself, do as much as you can, but also use the systems that have been put in place by our Government (Family Support Centers, Counseling, Group Counseling, Psychologist, Psychiatrist [to help stabilize emotions, so they won't get out of hand] and Ministers: and not just one [in the multitude of counsel, there is safety]). Sexual abuse doesn't just apply to girls, but also boys, and predators are not just men, but also women, so pay attention to your children, if you notice a difference in their behavior, take action and go see a professional. Boys hold things in and girls act out.
women have more estrogen than men, so a woman who has been through sexual abuse, when constantly reminded of it, they will shut down. With men, the more they talk about it, the more they heal, but women need space, in order to gather themselves. This can be applied to any relationship issue. I know in the past, I thought that I was helping by bringing it up, but I only made the situation worse, and because God is Just, he struck me with that same helplessness. Why Did I Get Married sort of deals with this through the people Janet and Milek played, but sometimes a picture or movie can't portray what words can. Words are the most powerful thing on Earth.
To the rape victim and molested victim, to free your mind from depression, tell yourself that they may have tried to destroy your body, but they never will be able to destroy your soul, Christ protects your soul with his blood and is cleaning you through his Spirit. To the mental and emotional abused, they may put heavy pressure on you with their words, but what they said about you doesn’t matter, only what God says about you in and through his Word matters. For all abuse victims, God declares the end from the beginning, so your end will be better than your beginning.
Glory to God, Amen.
