#357 - I Am a Sexual Offender
Volume 1 - Prayers to Love God

Dear Father, I sexually violated someone. I am so sorry. Father, before the abuse, the victim felt they had dignity and honor. They now feel shame and embarrassment. They want to hide and retreat from society. They have trouble trusting others in relationships. I severely wounded them. Father, I confess my guilt. I did this because I was self-centered. I did this because I was my own god, thinking the satisfaction of my needs was more important than anything else. I did it in total rebellion from You. Someone who loves You with all their heart, soul, and mind doesn't sexually abuse another. Father, in my defense, I was abused as a child. I learned this behavior from someone else. That does not make this an excuse. It simply suggests a pre-conditioned weakness I had to give in to this kind of horrific selfishness. Father, I ask for total healing of my having been victimized. I ask for total healing of my victims. May they enjoy an intimate and healthy relationship with their spouse. Bless their relationships with others. Give them the ability to trust other people, to love and be loved. Father, prevent them from becoming abusers themselves. Surround them with Your love and protection so that they do what I didn't do - live their life to bless others. My victims continue to be weighed down by the scars I gave them. May they be encouraged by the transformation of my heart through the work of Jesus Christ. Amen.
