Hi friends, October is Domestic violence awareness month.
Now there's nothing wrong with having a month set aside to make people aware of
something, but just like Cancer, other diseases, child abuse etc. it
doesn't just happen during these months, it happens every minute of every day.
Abuse whether its spousal abuse or child abuse is something people don't like
to discuss but if you have kids, are dating, single and looking, etc. you need
to know that every man or woman you meet are not always the perfect individuals
they claim to be. One of the first signs of a potential abuser is what the
bible calls a froward mouth and a flattering tongue. Proverbs 26:28. How does
the saying go? Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.
Lets face it most people are going to put their best foot forward, and show
only their best qualities when you first meet them.
So just remember, if it sounds too good to be
true then its probably a lie. Listen to what he or she says, it won't take
long to see if they really telling the truth or just shooting you a line.
Tune in next time for "Short Fuses."
