I know what it means to be paralyzed by fear, because I had a childhood like that.\u00a0Therefore, I want to help and encourage you to think better,\u00a0without fear.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that your father broke your mother\u2019s hand\u00a0and she did not say anything\u00a0at\u00a0the hospital or at the police,\u00a0encouraged your\u00a0father to be even more abusive.He sees himself \u201cpowerful\u201d to do any bad thing he likes, because\u00a0you are paralyzed by fear of him and he\u00a0treats you all like some vegetables.Therefore, when your mother came home he told her that next time would be worse.And if he said so, he would do so, too. What could be worse?Yes, maybe\u00a0one day he could throw\u00a0something\u00a0to her head and kill her.Are\u00a0such cases really few?As long as your mother\u00a0and you,\u00a0sisters, are\u00a0controlled and paralyzed by fear things will go from bad to worse.<\/p>\n<p>You must go home quickly and all together tell your\u00a0father to ask forgiveness from your mother and to\u00a0promise that he would never use any\u00a0violence against her. If he does not want to listen, ask your mother to come and live with you\u00a0separately, so that she may not\u00a0be\u00a0exposed to danger.<\/p>\n<p>I assume that your\u00a0mother can refuse to come to stay with you apart. In this case, go and call\u00a0the police to declare what\u00a0happened\u00a0and tell there that your father threatened\u00a0your mother with reckoning and that is dangerous for her to stay with\u00a0him.In this case the police should warn him\u00a0and, at least he would understand that he is not\u00a0the \u201cpowerful one\u00a0over vegetables\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It might happen that the policeman is one that\u00a0will not occur or will defend your father encouraging\u00a0him\u00a0to continue to\u00a0do the evil he does. When I was a child and my father beat my mother, I ran a few times to call the policeman\u00a0to intervene. The latter did not hurry\u00a0at all, even though I cried desperately and was about to\u00a0take\u00a0his feet to come soon at our home. He stayed to finish talking to people, was walking\u00a0slowly and when he reached our home, my father invited him into the cellar, they were\u00a0drinking a cup of wine and in this way he was\u00a0\u201dhonored\u201d by\u00a0my father and then he was leaving. After that,\u00a0my father beat\u00a0my mother and all of us\u00a0so that\u00a0the walls were sprinkled with blood. If somehow, your\u00a0district guard is the same, then go directly to the Prosecutor Office and\u00a0make a statement.\u00a0When the prosecutor intervenes,\u00a0things go on another way.<\/p>\n<p>Do not be afraid and act.One of my disciples came and told me about the same problem\u00a0in his family.After I advised him, he went home and spoke with his father and told him to stop physically abusing his mother. When the father used violence the\u00a0second time, he came and took his mother to stay with him.Then, their mother went to work in another country, and the father remained\u00a0angry, then he began to realize the mistakes he\u00a0had made, to regret, apologize to the wife and the children and even more \u2013 heartily repented and became a child of God.Now, he is\u00a0looking forward to the coming\u00a0of\u00a0his\u00a0wife\u00a0home\u00a0to live a new life with her.<\/p>\n<p>Satan holds us subject to slavery\u00a0just through\u00a0fear of death, but Lord Jesus came to deliver us, as it is written in the Holy Scripture:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,\u00a0and might free those who <strong>through<\/strong> <strong>fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives<\/strong>.\u00a0(Hebrews 2:14-15)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Put all your trust in God and do not be\u00a0paralyzed and\u00a0enslaved by fear of death.<\/p>\n<p><em>Translated by Felicia Rotaru<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: I have a problem which tortures me so much.
