Guest guest Posted November 14, 2001 Report Share Posted November 14, 2001 Susie, This is a very important message that you were brave enough to share with us. I'm so sorry you had to live through what you did. I hope it helped to write even this small part of it down. Of course I'm not offended. I'm upset that it happened to you, but certainly not offended. I do agree with you about the sometimes absolute necessity to divorce an abusive partner and how a loving God would view such a situation. Abuse occurs on many levels in all realms with alarming frequency. No person should live with it. I'm happy that the group has made a difference in your life. You are an important part of it.
