I previously believed that I attracted narcissistic people like a magnet, and numerous people with narcissistic tendencies entered and stayed way too long in my life. However, I now recognize that I lacked education on establishing boundaries and understanding consent. I was never taught to recognize fruit or to judge someone’s character. I was not equipped to discern good character, safety, or potential threats. Conditioned to prioritize others' needs over my own and tolerate unacceptable behavior, my ability to evaluate others developed at a slower pace than it otherwise could have. Fortunately, the Holy Spirit has guided me in understanding people-pleasing, excessive overthinking, boundary setting, and consent. Rather than self criticizing for my past ignorance, I will seek guidance from the Holy Spirit to identify godly and trustworthy individuals. Personal growth often necessitates distancing oneself from toxic people and influences, so it's essential to trust in God's plan and recognize (and stay away from) those with malicious intentions. Elevation requires separation; don't resist God's will if He reveals someone's evil nature.

Individuals raised by narcissistic caregivers or parents often learn to prioritize others' emotional and physical needs over their own. However, it is possible to break free from this detrimental pattern by recognizing and challenging these ingrained behaviors. Start by reflecting on your desires: do you truly wish to attend this event, or are you merely accommodating others? Similarly, consider your viewing preferences: do you genuinely enjoy this movie, or are you seeking external validation? If you find yourself drawn to narcissistic relationships, it may be because you are replicating familiar dynamics. It is essential to shift your focus from catering to others' needs to prioritizing your own wellbeing and spiritual growth. By focusing on your relationship with God, you can find balance and healing in other areas of your life. if you focus on God, He will fix everything else.

Imagine a scenario in which large numbers of white people start saying that they “feel black,” and that because of this feeling, and their enjoyment of stereotypically “black behavior,” they are now not just black themselves, but the most marginalized and vulnerable type of black person.

Imagine them insisting that they should be the main focus of all activism meant to help PoC. Imagine them having operations to darken their skin and mimic stereotypically black features. Imagine them walking around in blackface, and saying it’s the exact same thing as actually being black.

Imagine them being honored as black citizens by the White House, being summoned to talk to the President about issues facing the black community, being supported by celebrities, and having laws passed to make white people who identify as black a protected class.

Imagine these people demanding membership in black organizations, insisting that they receive a share of the reparations that CA is about to pay, and demanding they be given awards created specifically to honor black achievement. Then imagine them getting their way.

Now imagine mobs of them showing up to black events that don’t include them, carrying threatening signs and air horns to drown out any speakers with noise. Imagine them coming up with slurs for any black person who doesn’t accept that white people are black if they say they are.

Imagine them calling for the r**e, torture, and mass murder of any black person who disagrees with them. Imagine them getting black people doxxed, harassed, assaulted, fired from their jobs, and investigated by the police for saying that you have to be born black to be black.

Now imagine the government supporting their demands.

That’s exactly the position that women are in right now, with a few extras, like being locked in cells with dangerous men, the sexual predation of le****ns via coercion, and the increased risk of sexual assault in what used to be female-only spaces. Our oppressors are now claiming not only the right to oppress us in whole new ways, but the right to erase our identities as women and rewrite the meaning of womanhood in ways that suit - and include - them.

If you wouldn’t support this kind of behavior towards black people, you have no business supporting this kind of behavior towards women.

They deploy this line like it's an unbeatable argument, a trump card that should silence every boundary you've set. "But they're your family!" As though those words erase years of harm, as though blood relation creates an obligation that overrides your need for safety and respect. What they're really saying is, your pain matters less than our comfort, your boundaries matter less than maintaining appearances, your wellbeing matters less than keeping the family system intact. They expect you to honour a bond that was violated repeatedly by the very people hiding behind it.

The logic only flows in one direction. You're supposed to remember they're family when deciding whether to attend gatherings, when considering going no contact, when setting boundaries they find inconvenient. Yet where was that same energy when she was destroying you? When you were a child who needed protection, love, basic emotional safety; you were family then too. She didn't seem particularly concerned about familial obligations when she was gaslighting you, manipulating you, making your childhood a training ground for survival rather than a place to grow. The "family" card only gets played when it serves the people who benefited from the dysfunction, never when it might have actually protected you.

Family is supposed to be a reciprocal bond. It's meant to come with safety, loyalty, care that flows in all directions. She violated that contract from the moment she prioritised her needs over yours, yet you're expected to uphold your end anyway. It's like being asked to keep making payments on a house that was never actually built; you're honouring an agreement the other party abandoned years ago. They want the benefits of family; your presence, your forgiveness, your silence about what really happened, without providing any of the foundational elements that make family worth claiming.

People who use this line never seem to ask why you had to protect yourself from family in the first place. They don't interrogate what conditions led to no contact, what years of harm preceded your boundaries, what desperate measures you tried before finally walking away. They just expect you to override your own wellbeing because of a biological connection, as though DNA creates obligations that trauma should never break. They're asking you to sacrifice yourself to maintain a system that sacrificed you first.

Yeah, you were their family too. They just didn't treat you like it. That's not your failure, it's theirs. You don't owe continued relationship to people who only remember you're family when it's time to demand something from you.

What underlies addiction and mental health struggles? Typically, it is trauma. Individuals who experienced parental emotional dysregulation during their upbringing often lack emotional regulation skills themselves, as nobody taught them how to deal with feelings. Some may have been introduced to substance use by their parents or peers during adolescence as a coping mechanism for emotional distress stemming from abuse and neglect, leading to subsequent substance dependency issues. Others may have turned to substance use as a means of emotional numbing due to unaddressed trauma. Effective recovery from addiction necessitates confronting and healing the underlying trauma. It is essential to seek guidance on the healing process. Ask God to show you how to best heal your trauma.

Dear God, I reverence and extol You. You are my Provider, my Father, and my Friend; You safeguard me and keep me secure. You exalt me and magnify my name. Continue protecting me from deceitful individuals who feign affection, from those who are thoughtless, inconsiderate, and narcissistic, and from the spirit of Jezebel. Protect me from the spirit of deception and falsehood, and deliver me from the grasp of jealous spirits. Shield me from liars and malicious individuals, from the influence of Delilah, from sociopaths who seek to harm me, from emotional manipulators, and from family members who harbor such unclean spirits. Thank You, Father, for instructing me on how to worship You in spirit and truth. I praise your name. I praise you, God for my health for my wealth and for protecting me.

Mr. Gable was a retired carpenter. He was 75 years old and lived alone. He spent his days in his workshop, building birdhouses to stay busy.
One day, he was driving through town and saw a young woman struggling.
She was trying to push a heavy wheelchair up the stairs of her porch. In the chair was her teenage son. It was raining. She was slipping on the wet wood, crying from the effort.
Mr. Gable pulled his truck over. He got out and helped her lift the chair inside.
"Thank you," the woman gasped. "He's getting so heavy. I don't know how much longer I can do this."
"Why don't you have a ramp?" Mr. Gable asked.
"I got a quote," she said sadly. "The contractor wants $3,000. I work at a diner. I don't have that kind of money."
Mr. Gable nodded and left.
The next morning, at 6:00 AM, the woman woke up to the sound of sawing.
She looked out the window. Mr. Gable was there. He had his truck filled with lumber. He had his tools. He was measuring the porch.
She ran outside. "Sir! I told you, I can't pay you!"
Mr. Gable didn't stop working. He smiled, nails in his mouth. "Did I ask for money?"
"No, but..."
"Go inside," he said. "Make me a coffee. That's my price."
Mr. Gable worked for three days straight. He built a beautiful, sturdy wooden ramp with handrails. He sanded it down so it was smooth. He even put non-slip strips on it for the rain.
When he finished, he called the teenage boy out. "Give it a test drive, son."
The boy rolled down the ramp smoothly. He rolled back up. He was beaming. "Mom! I can do it by myself now!"
The mom hugged Mr. Gable, sobbing into his sawdust-covered shirt. "You are an angel."
"No, Ma'am," Mr. Gable said, packing up his tools. "I'm just a carpenter. Jesus was a carpenter too, you know. I think He would have built the ramp."
Mr. Gable drove away. He didn't just build a ramp; he built a bridge to freedom for that boy. And he reminded the whole neighborhood that your talent is a gift meant to be given away.

What is your ACEs Adverse Childhood Experiences score? Adverse Childhood Experiences refers to traumatic events such as emotional abuse, physical abuse, or sexual abuse, or can also result from having a mentally ill parent or one who was incarcerated. The higher the score, the greater the likelihood of developing psychiatric illnesses like post traumatic stress disorder, anxiety disorder, or major depressive disorder. With faith in Jesus Christ, healing and liberation from past traumas are possible, enabling individuals to break free from the burdens of their past.
