Recently, I observed behavior from someone that really concerned me. I watched as they harshly interacted with someone, taking offense to something that was completely innocent, and in that moment, it became clear to me that they were still responding from a place of trauma.
You can often tell where someone is in their healing by how they respond. When healing hasn’t taken place, trauma will speak for you. Scripture reminds us in Matthew 12:34 that “out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” In other words, your words will eventually reveal what your heart is trying to conceal.
The truth is, you can’t hide what hasn’t been healed, especially not from someone who walks with the Holy Spirit. He reveals what we try to cover. And that’s why it’s better to be honest about where you are in your healing process than to pretend you’re whole while still bleeding on others.
Here’s the hard truth, Sis: your purpose will wait for you, but people won’t. People are not called to stand in the line of fire of your unhealed wounds while you chase purpose. Healing is not optional, it’s necessary. Because when you pursue purpose without securing your identity, your trauma responses will expose you, and your behavior will push people away before your purpose ever has the chance to impact them.
I'm not trying to change you or judge you, I'm just offereing you wisdom. Don’t rush into purpose while neglecting healing. Take the time to become whole. Because when your identity is secure and your heart is healed, your purpose won’t just be something you do, it will be something you can sustain without hurting the very people you’re called to help. #Tianastea☕️ #itsteatime
