STOP BLEEDING ON PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T CUT YOU

-

 

There is a wound you didn’t choose.
A cut you didn’t cause.
And yet—if we’re honest—you’ve been bleeding on people who never held the knife.

The Holy Spirit whispered this to me plainly: Unhealed pain has a voice, and it often speaks through us when God is trying to heal us.

Many of us are anointed, called, gifted, loving, and still leaking. We shout, withdraw, overreact, mistrust, or self-sabotage—not because the people in front of us are dangerous, but because the people behind us were.

Someone betrayed you.
Someone abandoned you.
Someone mishandled your heart.

And now, innocent people are paying emotional hospital bills for wounds they never inflicted.

Trauma That Isn’t Healed Will Travel

Pain doesn’t stay where it started. It migrates.

What Pharaoh did to you shows up in your Moses.
What Saul did to you shows up in your David.
What Judas did to you shows up in your faithful disciples.

The Holy Spirit is saying: “You’re reacting to history, not reality.”

Not everyone who asks a question is attacking you.
Not everyone who loves you is about to leave.
Not every correction is rejection.

But when you’re bleeding, everything looks like a blade.

You Can Be Saved and Still Sore

Yes, you pray.
Yes, you worship.
Yes, you serve.

But salvation does not automatically mean emotional restoration. God heals spiritually instantly, but soulish healing is often a process—and He cares about that process.

Jesus didn’t just forgive Peter; He restored him.
He didn’t just raise Lazarus; He said, “Loose him and let him go.”

Some of us are alive—but still bound.

The Holy Spirit Is Calling You to Heal, Not Harden

Hear this clearly: your pain is valid, but your bleeding is optional.

The Spirit is not condemning you—He’s inviting you.

Inviting you to:

  • Stop punishing new people for old pain

  • Stop sabotaging safe relationships

  • Stop wearing trauma as discernment

  • Stop calling walls “wisdom”

Healing doesn’t make you weak.
Healing makes you free.

Don’t Let the Wound Become Your Personality

There comes a moment when God asks a hard but loving question:
“Do you want to be healed, or do you want to be understood?”

Because bleeding can get attention—but healing brings peace.

You don’t have to relive what hurt you to prove it mattered. God saw it. God knows it. And God is ready to heal it.

A Prayer for Healing

Holy Spirit, touch the place I keep protecting instead of surrendering. Heal what I’ve normalized, confront what I’ve excused, and restore what was broken before it made me bitter. I don’t want to bleed on people who love me. I want to live whole. In Jesus’ name, amen.

You are not toxic—you’re wounded.
But wounds are meant to be treated, not transferred.

It’s time to heal.

LOADED BUT NOT FIRED - IT'S TIME TO CHANGE THE ENVIRONMENT

-

  There’s a powerful truth circulating in the mental health space: "Genetics loads the gun, but environment pulls the trigger." This statement is more than a metaphor—it’s a mirror. It reflects the realities many people live with silently. Some are born with a biological predisposition toward depression, anxiety, or other mental health challenges. But it is often the environment—the chaos at home, the pressure at school, the trauma in the neighborhood, or the silence in the church—that pulls the trigger. And here’s what we must remember: We can’t always change the genes—but we can absolutely change the environment. That’s where you and I come in. Why This Matters Now We are living in a mental health crisis. Suicide rates are rising. Youth are overwhelmed. Adults are exhausted. Communities are under-supported. And too many people are still suffering in silence because they think their pain is a personal failure. But mental health is not a matter of weak will—it is often a ma...

THE CHANGING WORLD VIEW

  Have you ever felt like the world around you is shifting beneath your feet? Like the things we once called “normal” are now fragments of a memory we can barely piece together? Welcome to the world as we know it —or perhaps more accurately, the world as we knew it. From the digital explosion that lets us speak across continents in seconds to the emotional disconnect that ironically grows in an age of constant connectivity, we are living in a paradox. Technological breakthroughs are accelerating, global awareness is expanding, and yet, deep within us, many are whispering the same question: “Where is all of this really taking us?” The Speed of Change Change has always been a part of human history, but the pace today is breathless. Artificial intelligence is writing books and diagnosing diseases. Climate patterns are reshaping cities and coastlines. Identity, truth, even time itself—everything feels negotiable. What was certain yesterday becomes debatable today. But this isn’t ...
