The King's Daughters is a support group for women who have suffered some form of sexual abuse, whether childhood, or later on in life. We have been meeting now for nearly two years, and tonight was a very special night for the group. It was our second annual Christmas dinner. There were women present for the first time, others who have been a part since the onset of the group. But all have one common goal: to become whole and regain our true, God-given identity.
Tonight one of the ladies blessed us with a poem she wrote, which I felt needed to be shared. It is called "The Gift."
Everything good
And everything perfect
Comes from God above.
He gives us gifts
For us to enjoy
He gives us people to love.
As a King's Daughter
You are a gift
Just look around and see.
This journey we've walked
And are continuously on
Consists of you and me.
God gave me a gift
The day this group started
And I'm looking at it now.
The people here
Are meant to be.
All I can say is "wow."
Thank you, God,
For these wonderful gifts
Whom you meant for me.
Thank you, my gifts
For the friendship you give.
Sisters we'll always be.
We certainly are gifts for each other as we travel this road of healing together!
If you have a longing for inner healing, are struggling with these issues alone, and would like to be part of this support group, please e-mail me (Sally) at:thekingsdaughters7@gmail.com. Don't let life slip by without experiencing the joy of freedom from shame. There is a better way.
Blessings to you all.
