Sojourning with a Purpose

  The day I lost my eyesight was not just the day my physical vision faded—it was the day my life asked me a question I could not avoid: Who are you when everything you relied on is taken away? Going blind was not poetic. It was frightening, disorienting, and painfully human. There was grief. There was resistance. There were moments when I begged God to reverse what was happening to my body. I did not wake up that day inspired or enlightened. I woke up terrified. Blindness was not a gift I asked for.

For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are unseen are eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18) You are here for a r...

  Emotional abuse is one of the most invisible yet destructive forms of harm a person can experience. Unlike physical abuse, it leaves no bruises on the skin—only on the soul, the mind, and the heart. Because it attacks a person’s identity, worth, and inner stability, emotional abuse slowly erodes confidence, personal boundaries, and the ability to trust oneself.

Emotional abuse distorts the inner voice, replacing God’s affirming truth with fear, confusion, shame, and self-doubt.
