REBECCA HIDLAY

The Darkness of My Early Years

When I entered this world, I faced an environment that should have been a sanctuary but a place of torment. My mother, a woman who should have been my protector, was my most significant threat. With a narcissistic personality and homicidal tendencies, she brought a cloud of fear that shadowed every step I took. I was raised in an environment where emotional and physical abuse were daily occurrences.

I can still remember the deep sense of dread that consumed me, as I never knew when her explosive temper would erupt. Fear of the unpredictable chaos that followed her every mood was ingrained in me from a young age. There were moments when I truly believed I wouldn’t survive—when I thought my life was at its end. But amid this torment, something miraculous happened. It wasn’t my strength that I endured; it was God’s mercy.

The Crucible of Pain

As I grew older, the abuse escalated. There were instances when I genuinely feared for my life, when I believed my mother could kill me without a second thought. Her grip on me was suffocating, and I often felt trapped in a world where love was absent and danger was imminent. But through it all, I found myself desperately clinging to one thing—hope. It was all I had. Even when the pain seemed insurmountable, I held onto the belief that somehow, someway, I would survive.

A Divine Intervention

There came a moment when the abuse reached its breaking point. It was a moment so harrowing, so close to the edge, that I genuinely believed I was about to lose everything. But amid my deepest despair, I experienced a profound encounter with God’s mercy.

It wasn’t some dramatic, life-changing event where the heavens opened up, but a quiet reassurance—a sense of peace that washed over me in the most impossible circumstances. Like a shield around me, I could feel His presence protecting me from the deepest harm. It was then that I realized I had been spared, that God had intervened in ways I couldn’t comprehend.

This was the moment when I knew I wasn’t just surviving out of sheer willpower. God’s mercy at work kept me safe and guided me toward a healing path.
