I'm Not Running Anymore...

  • For so long, I walked around with a need for deep healing in my heart, but I didn’t recognize it. I guess you could say I was a “hot mess” but I was a functioning hot mess. I could get by through the day.
    But over time, the inner battles in my heart drove me to realize that I needed to stop running-running from love. Like many today, I ran from the issues of the heart. I ran because I was scared . . .
    - Scared of facing God.
    - Scared of facing myself.
    - Scared of seeing my issues.
    - Scared of my thoughts.
    - Scared of people rejecting me, shaming me, abandoning me.
    But when the symptoms of my life rose to such intense levels, I made a decision that I was going to stop running and receive what my heart needed all my life. It led me to learning to stop and say, "Ok, I'm gonna stop running and receive what my heart needs to experience healing and freedom."
    Today I want to share with you that first statement and six others statements I said that have helped me experience greater healing in my life.

    Thank you for these videos Mark. This year i developed severe anxiety due to past trauma i never resolved. I used to have anxiety as a kid but not chronically or consistently like recently. I never knew I had to deal with my trauma because I always just wanted to forget about it and move on. This year i’ve been alone. All my friends dropped me. But i think God took those people out of my life for a reason. I also think God is helping me to resolve my issues and help me have more faith and trust in him. I thank the Lord for leading me to your videos because they help me so much. Just knowing that i’m not alone in my struggle and it’s not going to last forever. God Bless you and your family Mark.

    That's right, Mark.
    Many people are living on painkillers to the heart pains suffered every second in lives. Because we have been told that what matters are the seen - the physical reality.
    God is here to offer us the real real cure to the root cause. So both the soul and the physical realities are healed and whole.

    I used to try to function and hide it all away but now God has me in a season that I have to face my emotions. I went into a dissociative state and that was the indication it is time to heal. I have to face the chronic cumpulsive tensing in my body to avoid my emotions and it iant easy.❤ I am not working, had to leave my job. I am having to trust God in this journey. Takes so much surrender. Please keep me in prayers. ❤

    Mark DeJesus and Adam Young (The Place We Find Ourselves podcast) have absolutely blown open the doors of my heart toward God and his love. I'm a life-long Missouri Synod Lutheran, and for whatever reason, I've never known/felt/realized God's incredible, crazy love. I used to think I should be "healed" the day after I read a book or watched a video,etc. I thought since I knew what a certain sin or issue was in my life and then stopped for a period of time, if I sinned that way again God was going "fry my ass". (Sorry for the language). God is still refining me (a lot of hot), I'm learning patience and love. My eyes are slowly opening, but I don't want to wait. Coming into the light from a dark room or theater is uncomfortable and even painful if done too quickly. I just thought of this image as I was typing. God knows, He is the boss and is patient with me as I wrestle with him because I want to be the boss. I'll hurt myself and others by rushing through this journey. God, please bless me with a super large dose of patience. Thank you, Mark, for all your work! I swear you live inside my head.

    Mark. I replied to someone yesterday. But now, need to add my own comment.
    This is probably the sixth time I am watching this, lost count.
    Before I ever checked this video out, I took a very important step with one of my neighbors, who for one, can be very controlling.
    I had peace about my stepping back.
    Then I came into my apt and clicked on this video.
    I cried so hard as the Spirit was speaking through you right to my heart. I can so relate about
    believers' expectations on others just saying "I'm good."
    So grateful for the Spirit leading me to your channel.☝🏼🥰
    Thank you. My journey has begun. Praise God

      Girl!!!! I just watched this video today. I kept it in the back of my mind for a while as something I should eventually watch, not thinking it was crucial for me. But God brought the title back to me now when I’m aware I’m running and ready to receive this message. ❤

    Strangely enough, the thought of God walking into the door of the room of my heart never frightened me. I’ve been more afraid of His not entering in, being overlooked or rejected “until” such time as I made some correction to earn His attention. You know, “Not yet, Liz” or “Not until ________ ( fill in the blank).”

    I also feeling like running from something or now many things and has been so many blockages to get on track to move forwards especially with "right" love... It was anxiety and overwhilming at first then angry at that it's so much "work" to deal with this... And made me not want to more but less. Had the thought of perfection but not motivated to step up and do more and had other "non-Church" distractions. And to get through the motions... The running feels like can only move forwards and the many paths. And can't go back to some things but also what comes in circles too or also falling in the "pit" running and hiding. Been drowning, Wanting just sleep more avoid more and Just float. But when the fears and anger came so did wanting death more than life thoughts because of the "End" and God's Judgement....
    But before I felt the running and crashed/"Fell" I was on a happy Spiritual high and SO much that all this information was flowing though my head like God was taking to me about how I was riding the waves of life and that I have come through so much through I have done and experienced in life. But that was only the "surface" to what was really going on underneath it all. The it did become I was living a lie and how much I was hiding and running when I though I was moving on forwards.

      But what if you were trying to avoid things that were sinful according to a commandment or law? And really thought you were all god in CHrist. but was really struggling with laying your life down for Christ and others? Because of the fear and lack of love... being the Living Sacrifice accepting Jesus as Lord and saviour in Submission and living in a fallen world. And was thinking I did choose family over Christ. And It was also my family trying to Hold me back from really growing up or "Leaving"... Everyone still trying to live "normal" and saying we do need to get "prepared" or ready for anything...
      There would be "signs" Many signs that I kept seeing - The "Corona" crown of life, the King/Lion and other things to do with CHrist coming and the end of times That I believed in...I could see a "running" away sign in me because the thought it was time we had to leave the city. First it was all good positive I'm ok sense then I did become negative fear after a few weeks. for example situations

      @glendagajsek-shears3890 ปีที่แล้ว

      When at times when I do feel like I'm not running and just trying to reast... But I do feel so dysfunctional from my now Behaviour not being "good" and consitant or stable from my running and avoiding and no control over our "evils". Then others are trying to take the lead where I should be "my roles". And become someone not that great with life but doing the basic home Jobs not wanting to go out much when I did go out more before. And more online doing this stuff. ANd it is really hard to invine God in my heart to even start to fix me!
      Because of what I got stuck in with my issues and the life situations of my sins including "lies" that have snowballed and bult up more restiance to "Change" with love and also who to trust when I was the one getting "tested" and "caught out"... But now know the real problem was my roles relational-heart issue too.

      I really need a real supernatural transformation! and it's not just me but all of us and who I have effected to with my mess or who Has also effected me... This also happpen for me not not controling anything and standing back too much too from fear an trying not to submit. I say I'm really sorry LOrd forgive me constantly that what I'm not doing or should be doing but also messed up my role and loife reputation
