If Jesus, the Son of God, wept over Lazarus knowing that he would raise Him from the dead moments later, then surely it reveals our deep need for compassion and mercy and the space to grieve over loss.

Love her realness . I can totally relate to the self hatred and not being able to fix yourself. Wanting to do right for God, but not being able to fix yourself and then completely feeling condemned, guilty , hopeless etc. And also getting stuck in the rules of the scriptures and then just feeling pressure even more . The very fact she worries about whether she loves others or follows Jesus correctly ; shows me she does or she wouldn't worry about it. I have hope for her . She wants to do right and I believe Jesus sees that and that's enough for him. He knows your heart, my dear. You're validated through Jesus ❤

She sounds like the sweetest lady...praying for her.

The belief/feeling of being disqualified ("not good enough") is something that has affected me for a long time, but this beautiful verse changed that for me: “giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.” (Colossians 1:12)

Mark seriously thank you. I literally have been feeling so much better consistently, I feel a huge change by really accepting God’s love for me

This is so good. After having a stillborn baby boy (died of a genetic condition) , then a miscarrige, then another baby boy with ANOTHER genetic condition, I've had to grieve alone. I've been drowning & tormented by unresolved grief, shame, legalism, condemnation & fear. I haven't been going to church because I've come to the conclusion that most churches aren't a safe place for people who are dealing with grief, mental health issues or torment etc.

Crying because I have felt the same way for so long. Even walked away from God at one point because the torment was too much to bear it felt easier to just not believe at all and even now today sometimes feeling like it’s just too much. Other churches and Christian’s do not help the mental health of people dealing with what we’re dealing with. This was very validating to know there are people out there who feel like me and I’m not alone in the struggle against what does feel like torment

I’m so sorry that you’ve had to endure all of that pain and tragedy. I hope you know how loved you truly, truly are. I have prayed for the Lord’s love, compassion, and peace to wash over you and your family.

Aside from religious OCD and anxiety, there are REAL burdens in our lives that we MUST rely on Jesus for. Somethings only He can help us with.

This is like listening to someone explain every single thought in my mind, in context and for every situation. This is me 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

I can so relate to this precious sister in Christ. I also have a disability and I get frustrated because I can’t do the things I think God wants me to do. Then I find a list of disqualification bc of it. Then think God doesn’t love me bc of it or I’m disqualified for calling myself a Christian. My heart goes out to her bc I hear myself in her. The “ and I don’t feed the widows” …. Yup I can hear myself… thank you Mark for all your help.

Hiya Mark, this lady isn't Scottish she is either from Yorkshire or Lancashire or somewhere north in England. I will pray for her

Mark, you are probably my favorite to listen to, I can see Jesus.

So powerful! This woman's vulnerability is so appreciated and endearing. The reality check of the heart of God in our grief was so needed for my own heart. Thank you, dear sister, for being so real with Mark as it allows your spiritual siblings to not feel so alone. And thank you Mark, for all your work in relating biblical truths to mental health!

God led me to this video and words can't express my gratitude

I feel so bad for this woman, and understand some of what she’s going through. I think understanding the Bible in the right context really helps destroy many of these thoughts. Also, understanding it through the lens of love from the Father is extremely important. I still struggle with this, but am growing in this area. Whoever is speaking on this recording, my prayers are with you. Praying the Lord will fill you with His love, peace, and comfort! 🙏🏻❤️

This is really speaking to me. Thank you. It is very helpful and the fact that you made me laugh was so good because I don't laugh enough and I guess you could say I take myself way too seriously.

Man I just love this guy. Hilarious. Powerful. Easy. Loving. Legend.

She doesn't feed the widows, but she herself is a widow. l'm sad for this woman. Lord PLEASE show this lady your precious love, and teach her how to receive it.

Amen, Mark! This is a struggle I feel everyone can relate too. Not processing the trauma we've been through. I am trying myself to realize how much God loves me so I can love my son and husband and others the way God does. Thanks for all you do and I pray God blesses you and God bless the woman in the phone call 🙏

The phrase "the letter kills, but the spirit gives life" refers in the context to the fact that under the Old Covenant, the law/letter given on Sinai brought condemnation and death as no one could obey it perfectly and be saved.

God bless this sister. I believe there are many, many people who can relate. Thank you Mark. 🙏

This was me 2 years ago. She has me in tears listening to her cry out, "I want to be free!" I am praying for her believing that God has opened the healing door. I found myself a therapist who does EMDR and I am no longer the same - I am free. 🧡

This made me tearfully think about the song from Casting Crowns "Happy Plastic People"... All wholeness be to the caller! (And: wow, the crazy rants has been my issue... )

Man this was one of the best videos that remind us to have God's heart of compassion when dealing with our flaws, struggles and difficult circumstances. A harsh inner critic builds a wall between self and receiving & understanding God's love for us. Learning to respond to myself in love is the biggest thing you've taught me Mark. Very grateful for your work...and your humor as you teach.

She’s English not German 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂this is hilarious. I can relate so much, the truth in it all makes it so much more funny. I’m laughing at myself.

Thank you Mark for opening up a door of Grace and Healing in Jesus that has been closed for so many people.

Sweetheart my heart goes out to you I've totally been struggling with the same self hate and irrationalities that you are. You are loved

Thanks!

Precious woman and wonderful counsel. Thank you! You are helping me so much, in Jesus’ name!🎉

He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant-not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”

I love how Mark is not too politically correct to do an impression of a Scottish accent (when the lady is from Yorkshire). Sometimes humour is exactly what we need. I listen to Mark on audio when I take my dog out for a walk and have lost count of how many times I end up belly laughing out loud on my travels. I pray that this lady has grace for herself, and peace and comfort in the love of God.

This is me 100%. Never had a present father in the home. Its an ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE emotional state to be in. 😖😖😖🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Did anyone else die laughing when he screamed, " And by the way I don't feed the widows!"😂😂 I've totally been there!

Ok only 18 minutes in just about, and I’m 18, who also struggles with ADHD, GAD, and probably undiagnosed OCD (scrupulosity), and this practically describes the torment I’ve been feeling for about the past 10 or 11 months. I lost my aunt back in November of 2021, and I actually don’t deal with my emotions correctly, I just often suppress them or try to distract myself from them because I don’t know how to deal with it and I don’t like dealing with them, but this is probably also causing me a lot more issues than actually helping. But this already is very relatable and describes what I’ve been dealing with. Let alone my faith I constantly question like “Do I have it or not?” Then it just spirals into even more thoughts and worst feelings and whenever I try to read my Bible I just feel condemned. It feels like I’m going insane. On top with the struggles ADHD already gives me then add GAD on top of that, I feel I’ve gone down a hole and I don’t even know how I got myself in here, let alone how to get myself out. edit: this whole video sounds like me, and this lady sounds like me, even though our situations are different I can relate to this, and we may not have all the same disorder/pain, but yet I still relate to this. It also becomes hard for me because my ADHD and GAD seems to like to overlap. However I’ve also yet to be officially diagnosed with OCD, but therapist said it seems like I do also suffer from obsessions and compulsions. It just becomes harder for me because like I said my ADHD and GAD already presents issues that could look similar to OCD. Probably why it’s important for me to see a psychiatrist. Anyways, this entire video sounds like me. The other issue for me is that I also don’t often express my emotions outwardly, yet internally that’s how I deal with them. And also dealing with the issues growing up because my ADHD made me different and it already gives me issues, then when puberty hit it seems like my mental state got worse when that arrived and just worse over my teen years. However there are some times I have expressed my emotions outwardly, but I don’t often do this. Plus I am also not a people person, I seem to avoid people yet at the same time I fear being alone. I don’t really seem to care for people yet at the same time I do. Heck I fear becoming like Judas yet my brain tells me I’m worse than he was, and just this wave of negative feelings, mainly guilt, shame, anger, frustration, sadness, regret, pain, hatred, condemnation, I just feel like I’m drowning or there’s not enough air, I’m struggling to breathe it feels like. Yet I also as well hate myself for all of this as well. I’m in a toxic/abusive relationship with myself.

I feel you on the compulsions and wanting be away from ppl at times AND the toxic relationship w urself. It’s not easy but ik God loves us and will see us through. A tip for intrusive thoughts or spinning; for spinning - if u feel trapped in a loop of thoughts that u can’t escape breathe and say the truth shall set you free! John8:34 if you don’t feel free it’s not true. For intrusive thoughts before u freak out be still and realise if it just popped in then it wasn’t u! And thank God that u don’t desire these thoughts. Or reject bad thoughts mean thoughts against yourself by saying the opposite with scripture❤ I pray you find breakthrough.

#4:”…not of the letter…” Not of the Mosaic law. The Mosaic law is referred to as the “letter” because it tells people what they should and should not do. It is a series of writings that regulate moral and civil actions. Mosaic law is not a path to everlasting life. Some commentators interpret “letter” to mean the literal interpretation of the Scriptures (as opposed to the spiritual meaning), but this is not the currently favored interpretation.
