Emotional maturity means learning to self-regulate.
Healing often begins when we stop expecting others to manage our emotions for us.
Psychology calls this self-regulation, the process of calming, grounding, and integrating our inner world.
Theology calls it sanctification, being transformed by the renewing of our minds (Romans 12:2).
Any model of therapy or theology that teaches “I can only be okay if they are okay” isn’t freedom—it’s bo***ge to the pain of your past.
Emotional dependency keeps us stuck in cycles of fear and control.
True peace begins when we root our identity in the unchanging love of the Triune God.
He alone is stable, trustworthy, and safe. He alone loves you unconditionally.
“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” — Isaiah 26:3
“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” — 1 Peter 5:7
“We love because He first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19
“But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8
You are deeply loved.
You are secure in His care.
You matter to Him. 🤍
