You couldn’t explain it.
The pain was invisible.
There were no bruises—just a heaviness you carried in your soul.
You didn’t cry out.
You didn’t fight back.
You just… survived.
But in every quiet moment when your spirit whispered, “God, do You see me?”
He answered:
“Yes, My daughter. I saw. I heard. I still do.”
“Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear.” — Isaiah 65:24

Sometimes abuse doesn’t sound like shouting.
It sounds like gaslighting, stonewalling, or guilt-tripping.
And so you become silent.
You fear not being believed.
You fear making him angry.
You fear being told it’s your fault.
So you pray in whispers.
You cry into your pillow.
You write journal entries instead of speaking truth aloud.
And still… God heard it all.
The world demands evidence, explanations, and clarity.
But God sees hearts, not headlines.
He interprets your tears. He knows your thoughts. He translates your sighs into prayers.
“You have searched me, Lord, and you know me… before a word is on my tongue, You know it completely.” — Psalm 139:1,4
He gives strength when you have none left.
You don’t need to pretend. He welcomes your weariness.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28
Emotional abuse confuses you. God brings clarity and truth—gently and faithfully.
“God is not the author of confusion but of peace.” — 1 Corinthians 14:33
Even when your words fail, your tears speak. And heaven listens.
“The Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.” — Romans 8:26

Sometimes silence is the only way we know how to protect ourselves.
But you’re not weak.
You’re not invisible.
You’re not voiceless.
You are seen. You are known. And now… you are being restored.
Journaling is healing. Write letters to God.
Tell Him what hurt. What broke. What confused you. He’ll meet you there.
When you can’t pray, play worship music. Let it wash over you.
Let lyrics say what your soul can’t articulate.
Even if it’s just, “God, I’m still hurting.”
That’s enough. That’s brave. That’s holy.
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3
You didn’t have to scream for God to notice you.
You didn’t need perfect words for Him to understand.
He was there when you were silent… and He’s here now as you begin to speak again.
Your silence was not weakness.
It was survival.
But now, healing has come—and your voice will rise again.
