Why Jesus Wept (He Didn’t Fake Being Happy)
"I'm too blessed to be stressed." (While their left eye is twitching). 🥴
We all know that person. They treat negative emotions like radiation. But here is the hard truth: You aren't being positive; you are dissociating.
In this video, I explain Spiritual Bypassing—the act of using God as a drug to numb the reality of your life.
The danger is simple: If you numb the dark, you also numb the light. You cannot heal what you do not feel.
Even Jesus wept (John 11:35). He knew He was about to raise Lazarus, yet He still stood in the tragedy and felt it. Stop faking it.
