Protected from assault
There has been a great deal of talk in the news recently about violations against women, and I’d like to share an experience I had where I was protected from abuse.
I was living in an apartment after college. I hadn’t lived there long when I was wakened in the middle of the night feeling my shoulders being held down. My head was turned toward the wall, so I couldn’t see anything. I could move only my fingers, and just enough to know I was touching denim.
I became afraid, but almost instantly the word love came to my thought. God is Love, and I felt immediately enveloped in this divine Love. Just like that, the fear was completely gone.
