7: 10

Dominique Wilkins

Charlotte Pinkerton had twin girls for her husband Greg, who seemed to be more and more abusive over the years as the girls got older. Charlotte did not know The Bible well, but she remembered that 1 Corinthians 7:10 stated that a woman should not leave her husband. She took a vow that she would stay in her marriage especially for the kids. Until one day, she made the mistake of going through his phone to invite people to his surprise birthday party and in response, he turned into a monster and threw her down two flights of stairs. As she lay, crumpled up at the bottom of the stairs, she decided that she was leaving. She picked up herself, and the girls from school and kept going. After some time passed by, she missed him and forgot about all of the bad times and reminisced only on the good ones. She decided to surprise him by going back one evening, then walked in on him in bed with another woman. Instead of him being the loving man that he had been over the phone, he turned on her again and threatened her to get out! Charlotte and the girls ran out of there as if the house was on fire in the middle of the night. That incident scarred them so terribly, that it pushed Charlotte into a strange man's arms, while it made one of the girls "go-wild" and the other withdrawn. They were all spiraling and behaving badly. They never took the time to heal, which caused a trickle effect of one horrific situation after the other, until they either lost their lives or everything they had... That night changed everyone in that house. Find out how Karma takes care of the bad people and how the Grandmother, watching from the outside, decided that praying for them consistently would take care of the good... *Includes some R-rated material*
