Preface
THE SECRET
I would like to tell you a secret. You will not believe it, as you have not yet experienced it, because you are discouraged and tired. How could you not be? You have been criticized, teased, manipulated, or threatened. Emotionally and maybe even physically, you have been beaten down. And it continues.
Every day you get up, you feel a little sick. The mean words travel around in your head and hurtful pictures flash across your mind. There are times you don’t want to go anywhere, or else you just want to run away, all because you are being bullied.
For just a moment, I want to imagine I can time travel. I am finding every client I ever counseled who was a victim of bullies. I am handing him or her this book while he or she is still in the throes of the battle. I am encouraging him or her, “Read every chapter slowly. Write all your thoughts, feelings, and strategies at the end of each chapter in your personal inventory and plan of action!” Then I share my secret with him or her. But he or she won’t believe it. Not yet.
Once you take this book as your own survival guide and tactical manual, you will be prepared and ready to break free from any bullies who come after you. Why is there scripture in a book on bullies? If you are, in fact, made in your creator’s image, then who knows better what you need to gain your greatest victory in your darkest moments? By having access to God’s strength, wisdom, insight and heart, no one can stop you for long. You are a reflection of the God that made you. If you look to him for your future and not be shortsighted or blindsided by bullies, you will see a new vision!
That vision includes a path that becomes a road to freedom and to all you will be able to do. Bullies don’t want you to see you have a future. They bothered you today, but don’t lose heart about what will happen tomorrow. I wrote the Book on Bullies, but you are writing The Book on You, and that is a wonderful story that only you can write! The secret I hope you will believe is this, “Your story is not over.”
No more fear of threatening sounds
Or the unexpected strike,
I will go Christ’s way,
Find my path, and live my life.
