Christianity --Youth Issues/Sexual abuse

Question
Hello, I'm just a 14 year old newly Christian girl who is overcoming something difficult - sexual abuse. I feel so alone in this, like nobody knows what I'm going through. I became a Christian about a year ago, and know that Jesus understands, but idk. I just feel worthless.

Answer
Dear Kay,

    I came across a website that I think you may want to see. It's called www.freedomintruth.com.  You may need to look through all the links to find what all is truly helpful for you personally, but I think it might be a good place to start.  

      How are you doing ?
