the 'attention seekers' routine. I think to myself (someday I may have the nerve to actually say it)...."Yeah, I just love the rejection of it all." She said that sometimes she wants to respond back in kind,” Maybe something like saying to these people, "I didn't know you were such an advocate for Satan. He too, likes to bring condemnation to people!" I better stop now.....before I really get going and forget the One who never rejects or condemns us.” Karen has found, like many other survivors, that God loves her and cares for her even when His body can’t. Alice shares her experience within her church: “He (her pastor) even chose this woman to be my "care giver", well, after a few years of what I thought was a wonderful, loving relationship, come to find out she was casting out demons when I left, blaming everything that went wrong in her life and her children's on ME! I'm surprised she was able to hug me as she did without shuddering in disgust...” She tried going to a deliverance seminar to become free of the demonic and to find healing: ” Another thing were these "Cleansing Streams Ministry" retreats/seminars that i would go to...my gosh, they talked about freedom from bondage from SRA and all sorts of things..i mean I thought they covered it all, but because i was acting out/alters acting out..i mentioned this before, they said that they would not pray for me because i was uncooperative..and again, i got called names and shunned..I mean once is bad enough but i went to about four or five of these "retreats" with the promise that the next time would be a charm..and each one was a disaster, and i got yelled at, shunned, and people would not pray for me. Heck, the last one I couldn't even get a ride home!! I scared the couple off that was supposed to take me home..(it was out of state), my caregiver came and reamed me out, and another told me to quit game playing, and i blew up at them..left in tears with my bags packed and roamed (name of city deleted to protect survivor’s identity)..met up with someone who helped me get a bus home..what should have been a 7 hour trip for me, took at least 15 hours by bus, because i was so kind of leper. Yeah, they talked about freedom
