Theology

Are you carrying a cross or just a victim complex?

Are you carrying your cross, or just refusing to put down your baggage? Let’s have a brutally honest conversation. 🛑✝️ Hey, it's Michael. Today, I'm talking to my fellow Christians about a toxic habit we need to break: dressing up our burnout, anxiety, and lack of boundaries as "holy suffering." God isn't glorified by neurotic self-sabotage. Jesus suffered with a purpose, not a victim complex. We’ve bought into a twisted theology that says misery makes us closer to God. But looking at Galatians 5, chaos and misery aren't fruits of the spirit—joy is. It takes courage to accept God's grace and stop trying to pay a debt Christ already paid. 💬 Let me know in the comments: Have you ever caught yourself playing the "false martyr"?
