The fear of man DEFINITELY brings a snare!!!! Mental and spiritual snare!!! I am 1 of 7…always compared…always lumped together…thanks, Dr. Cloud…this helped tremendously! Thank you for being righteously angry FOR us and against our captivity. THAT is true LOVE!
Great, much needed message! Sometimes depression and lack of motivation is from fear of not completing tasks “properly” and from being compared/comparing ourselves to others. I had the same issue from being in a toxic narcissistic relationship and being compared to another woman by the man whom I loved. I felt like I was losing my identity trying to fit her shoe. I got tired of living under someone else’s shadow and hated who I was becoming. So depressed, no voice, no control over my emotions. I decided I needed to disconnect and get to know myself and love myself. God is still helping me with this. I now am much stronger and love myself enough that I no longer fear setting boundaries and risk losing relationships with emotionally toxic people, nor fear being single or alone. 😁 Love yourself, get to know yourself, accept yourself, receive forgiveness, set boundaries, define your likes and dislikes, make it clear what you will and will not put up with… And to the caller, if you are the “bad twin”, remember that people who make mistakes often have powerful testimonies. You might be working on yours. Embrace who you are and your flaws. Take your time, it’s not a competition. God bless you! 😇🤍💖
This is SO helpful!! I am a twin .. my name is Michelle too!! SO much of this is ringing bells, about my sister!! I Have taken ownership in so many areas.... and felt guilty for not wanting to share some of the blessings with her: In my heart I have a 110 mile wall around my castle with a mote and have thrown away the key to the drawbridge!! I sense danger if I do... I love her and her family dearly, but she needs to be her own person without me as well... It is something I have prayed about, but I know past tendencies in a very enmeshed setting.
This has been difficult when fighting an underlying autoimmune condition and having basically not knowing what it was for years. I truly believe it’s a symptom of it and the fatigue along with mental/emotional exhaustion.
God bless you 🙏Very helpful in a lot of ways. I'm going to write down all the scriptures you mentioned tonight and think and pray about them. Gods word is our tool and I appreciate what you said. I know this will help a lot of souls. Thank you 🤗
Great reminders to hear and re-tell ourselves and our children. Love your themes; know and own and defend your boundaries, know and own and defend your values.

I have been so complacent lately!
Different is not worse
Sounds like depression anxiety
