When Faith Hurts: Singing Loud, Breaking Quiet, Living Silent
ConverSayShons Wit My Black Self: Colloquialism Professionally Matters!
“I am learning more and more about how to appreciate the noise around me, while finding ways to engage it, effectively. Perfection is NOT my goal, Wholeness is.”
~Mentally-speaking, I'm talking about image-based coping — when a person relies on outward performance, appearance, or status symbols to mask internal distress. Research shows that this often intensifies anxiety, depression, and feelings of isolation.
~For church folks, a familiar look resembles singing loud but hurting quiet. For nonbelievers, it looks like flexing the body, the house, the car — looking perfect on the outside while crumbling on the inside. Let’s be real, it’s not about looking holy, snatched, or chest-fabulous! It’s not about the trends. It’s about being real. It’s about getting whole.
~We’ve gotta stop performing faith that looks cute on Sunday but falls apart by Monday. We need faith that actually works for us — the kind that steadies us when life shakes, heals instead of hides. Because at the end of the day, and this thought; the only faith that really matters isn’t the kind that makes us look good… it’s the kind that makes us whole... GET THAT!
