Faithful Cycles: When Love Turns into Control

Real Life. Real Struggles. Real Truth.

Truth Cycle:

They said they loved you. But love doesn’t belittle. Love doesn’t bruise. Love doesn’t isolate you, make you feel worthless, or keep you silent. And yet, you stay because you were taught that love is patient. That love endures. But deep down you wonder: is this really love? Or is this just pain dressed up as loyalty?

Biblical Truth:

God does not call you to stay where you’re being destroyed. He calls you to peace, not bondage.

“The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.” _{Psalm 34:18 (NKJV)}

“Love suffers long and is kind… it does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked.” _{1 Corinthians 13:4–5 (NKJV)}

“God has called us to peace.” _{1 Corinthians 7:15b (NKJV)}

Quick Word:

God never asks you to endure abuse in the name of love. His love protects. His love heals. And His love will never silence your cry for help.
