This is to every women(ladies) going through this that cannot be said “Can you really survive it?”
Mrs Ajayi is the host of the program tagged “Battered Women” and the aim is to make every women suffering from hard beatens (by husband and boyfriends), rape and all abused women come into realization that they can survive.
All through the sessions of the meeting, she was not happy, seeing the large population of women both old and young who were battered from the hands of men. “Some men are beast!” she concluded so fast, without feeling bad about the statement she uttered. Along side, she felt the problem is also from the women. She was too careful not to judge.
Still, that does not give men the impression to beat, rape and molest women. Irrespective of what they did or how they behave. She concluded within her as she was approaching the women, for it was her turn to discuss with them. “Excellent women of God, how have the session being so far? “Fine, great, blessed” they all chorused according to how they feel but, she was not satisfied and she believed there was more and she pray to God to help her.
“This is pleasant to hear, but before i begin my session with us, How many women here are suffering Hard Beatens from their husband? How many are struggling from Rape and Sexual molestation?” Mrs Ajayi asked. She was amazed that 60 percent suffers from hard beatens and the rest goes to rape and molestation. She was about to go further in asking, before a woman in the congregration stood and asked “Can i really survive?”
Tears roll down from Mrs Ajayi's eyes because, the woman was a typical example of someone suffering from hard beatens and some young ladies struggling from rape, sexual molestation and hard beatens from their uncle, step dad, drunk dad, boyfriend, stood up to ask the same question. At that moment, Mrs Ajayi knew something unusual is about to happen as she replied “Yes, you can survive”
She continued “I know some of you chose wrongly, while sone chose rightly but things are not still going fine. Either of this situation, should not make us feel bad. We were not created to be battered woman but joyful, wonderful and beautiful women.
For the married one's suffering hard beatens from your husband. Remember, you took a pledge of for better for worst. So, the best option is not to leave your husband, the bible is against it. Instead, why don't you report him to the person who created the both of you(God) to take full charge. It might look like years but do not give up, keep pressing, believe and totally depend on God. To survive, revive the altar of prayer and let God lead you. Divorce is not an option
For the unmarried ones, you have not been joined together yet. Pray to God to open your understanding. With a sincere heart, tell him to help and lead you right. A relationship is to appreciate you, and not to depreciate you. A man capable of beaten you now as opened the doors to more after marriage. Do not be blindfolded by love and all the apologies, that does not end it all.
Lastly, to every ladies struggling from Rape and Molestation. Your strength is from God and not from men. Tell it to God, tell Him to fix you Let Him hold your hands and everything becomes possible. Stop pushing the blames on yourself and move it.
*To survive you have to totally depend on God. You are a surviver through Christ*
God bless and i love you all
