Rosa Jean Wondered If She Could Ever Recover
From Her Life Of Domestic Violence...
In a beautiful Shenandoah Valley suburb of Virginia, Rosa Jean grapples with a marriage filled with domestic violence, compounded by the abuse she suffered as a child. Her kind Aunt Grace patiently listens to Rosa Jean's story, and together they struggle for her survival, spiritual growth, and recovery.
"... I heard a terrible noise from the living room--a loud thud and breaking glass. I asked myself if something had fallen from a shelf. But I immediately realized, no. I knew from the sound of impact that Brad had deliberately slammed my sentimental porcelain doll collection down, shelf and all. I realized that he must be angry, and
there I was, trapped in the dining room. I froze...It was like slow motion, watching him lumber toward me through the only available doorway; it was sort of like when I was a child walking the train
tracks and watching a locomotive meandering toward me."
If a woman has lived in domestic violence most of her life, can she ever really escape or survive it? And if so, how can she hope to recover?
"He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings and he had put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it and fear, and shall trust in the Lord"
{Psalms 40:2-3, KJV}
