The Stable Table

Saturday May 23 2026: experienced the wonderful fellowship with five ladies at McH County Correctional Center. Our discussion developed on “go to’s” when darkness begins to surround our thoughts. This included Jeremiah 29:11-13 and Psalm 23. Transforming our minds to embrace God’s Word crucial to all whether in jail or not. Other go-to’s include healthy friends, church fellowship and most important prayers(conversations) directly through Jesus to the Heavenly Father. Please pray for those about to be released- the attacks are exponential when they walk out that door into the re-entry journey.

October is Domestic Violence awareness month. If you need a safe place follow the link on this post. People are eager to help.

But speaking out helps bring it into the light, challenge the silence, and show that it's not just unacceptable, it's a crime. Every voice raised breaks the cycle and supports survivors in seeking justice and healing.

Your safety matters. Your freedom matters. You matter. If you or someone you know is in this situation, there are people ready to help.

Abuse isn’t always bruises and broken bones. It can start with words, control, isolation, or manipulation...long before it turns physical.

🚩 They constantly criticize you or make you feel “crazy.”
🚩 They control who you see, what you wear, or how you spend
money.
🚩 They guilt-trip you or twist reality to make you doubt yourself.🚩 They isolate you from friends and family.
🚩 They monitor your phone, social media, or location.

These are red flags — and they’re just as serious as physical harm.

Abuse thrives in silence and confusion. But the earlier we recognize the signs, the sooner help can reach someone who needs it.
