Thanks so much for the highlights. I was just wondering with my ADHD brain how'd I write these down without losing myself halfway through the sentence 😂 THANK YOU
@@theanonymoushelpline7248 i felt all of this, too. It was like, whoa, I'm not alone. Which we know we have Jesus, but this transparency makes the relatability feel real. Bless you Mark
I liked right away out of a good habit I think but I believe that under five minutes I subscribed! Mentioning the Bible got my attention but giving good Biblical insight was what got me! ❤️
Everything spoke to me, but here are the phrases that popped out the most: 💡 “I am right where I need to be to learn what I need to learn.” 💡 “To value MY journey.” 💡 “You’re trying to encounter the Father from a distance to change yourself. No, what you need is connection with God; out of that, you are changed. And connection is brought about by LOVE.” (I “knew” this truth, but something about the way it was phrased this time turned on a light.)
This is changing my life. Everything you are talking about describes my life for years. Obsessing over my feelings and thoughts etc. Such a relief to have answers.
"I'm where I need to be to learn what I need to learn"- This is so precious!! God is using you brother, Mark! Thank you for being faithful to God and putting this teaching online. I just recently found your videos and they are helping me a lot! God bless you!
Number 9 (carrying others' burdens) is huge for me. My default seems to be "automatic responsibility" for every need...so much that I am not living MY own life.
These are great insights! One thing I am learning to do along the line of checking my emotions and growing what I focus on, is that upon waking up I push out any negative thoughts and emotions by drawing near to God in praise and worship and speaking out scripture. It sometimes takes a half hour or more but it always works eventually. I find it’s true that I give power to whatever I turn my focus to, so the more quickly I can turn from focussing on negatives the better all around.
Mark! You alwaaaays encourage me 🥹❤️ Catastrophizing is a big one for me. I get reassurance I was wrong about whatever it is and then I feel like I can breath - it sure is exhausting to live that way. Thanks for bringing light to struggles so many have and always saying it with compassion!
@@scottm247 Christianity is oppressive and driven by fear. I saw it in myself and with the people I associated with in the church. Also, christians were the worse people I have ever know. Pious, self righteous, narrow minded, judgmental, and EXTREMELY hypocritical! I never felt so happy in my life as I did when I left christianity. Aside from the that the bible is filled with absurdity and nonsense. There are tons of disturbing verses and outright lies and contradictions. It is a sham and the jesus story itself is a copied story form 16 christs that came before him. That is historical record! Christianity is declining rapidly in the world, expecially in the U.S. Nobody is buying that craziness anymore.

I used to dwell in the love of God and walk in the Spirit and it was the period of time that I lived more holy naturally, without even trying. Then negative teachings came which made me doubt the possibility of losing my salvation in the future. It made me feel unloved by the Lord and I found it hard to believe I was a new creation in Christ. This eventually lead me to worry and fear about many things. I used to pray and read the Bible for many hours a day. But after those wrong beliefs came in, My prayer time decreased and I developed OCD symptoms and found it more difficult to walk in the sPirit. I developed a low self image and I fell into a specific sin and temptation I never was tempted by in my whole Christian life since I got saved nearly a decade ago. Eventhough I wouldn't commit this sin frequently, it ate away at my mental and Spiritual health and I even quit my job which became pressurizing on me. I struggled so much and no one to help me. But then the Lord led me to your channel and I feel understood that someone is talking about this and not making me feel evil but loved by God
Don't pressure yourself❤ that was so good! Treasure to be in The Moment❤ Living NOW❤ Being NOW,Here❤ One Thing at a Time😊 Enjoying TODAY❤ I am right where I need to be to learn what I need to learn, to grow❤ STOP being critical to Yourself when you are down❤ Kind nurture💗 Walk your Journey with GRACE❤ GOD YOU LOVE ME,YOU ARE HERE❤ Learning to be loved and to live in love❤VALUE Your Journey❤❤❤ Stop carrying people's burdens for them in false resbonsipility, instead be a brother/sister to them, love them❤ If people do not understand you, it's okay😊 ❤THANKS MARK😀
I needed this so bad right now, thank you Mark ❤ it's so hard to be compassionate towards ourselves when we mess up, especially with parenting. So self condemning. Thank you for this ❤
It is amazing how God has directed me on these 10 things exactly as you have listed them. In this I have come to know him truly and I have started a relationship with him in this journey I never thought I could have with him. Hugs Mark!
I have to comment again! Preach, Mark! I so needed to hear this video this evening. The part about trying to fix myself (nutrition, supplements, trying this and that, etc.)....but connection to God's love is what changes us!! So good!
Zechariah 4 10 10 Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand.” My biblical consent just shared this verse with me recently. I had not heard it b4. Bc im always bumping ahead at how far behind i am. May it bless you all, too
This is super helpful. To embrace the time & season l am in, learn what l need to learn, not compare myself as it’s very unkind towards me and others and most importantly not be worried about what others think about me.
3, 4, and 5 brought it right home. Living in “what or where I should be by now” is self torture and brings me down to the bottom! I re-listened those parts 5 times already and probably need to listen 500 times more. It’s so deeply engraved in my brain. Thank you for this, Mark!
I always find myself taking notes when I watch your videos. As someone who struggles with sometimes intense anxiety and ocd, a few things that stuck out to me from this video were, "I'm keeping my eyes up and I'm moving forward," "Stay slow and don't take on pressure. Breathe," "Practice being in the present moment; focus on what's in front of you," and "See things as they are, not worse than they are." Thank you, Mark.
I'm so glad I happened to see this!..I finally found someone who gets me and what I'm going through and can give tangible help..Ive quoted scriptures till I'm blue in the face and tried all kinds of things and am worse than when I started. I literally felt Holy Spirit laughter come over me when I stopped to just breathe slowly..and all the times I've tried to "help" family during holidays at times when I could have just stopped and enjoyed the moment and relax..I'm seeing it now..the whole performance issue..wow..ALL of them spoke to me...thank you for being transparent.
Mark, in my journey of being restored after the recent death of my husband of 50+ years, the Lord began to walk me through a healing process of knowing who I am. I am up to 7 things about me that I need to understand, embrace and let go of. Imagine the shock I felt when your video was revealed to me. All 7 of my revelations are on your list. I found confirmation and clarity through you. Thank you!
Great thoughts and reminders of self-advocation. Really appreciate this lecture, as I focus on me without criticizing, I find my worth & purpose increases in value.
Love this so much! I’ve been changing inside so much as I’ve practiced these things. I’ve been having much more self compassion and awareness for myself. Thanks for sharing 🙌😇
Literally hit the nail on the head with these 10 points! Thank you so so much. This week was such a tough one for me bc I felt like I was constantly spiraling out and obsessing over everything. Through this video God’s really given me the answers that I needed and I now feel a huge sense of relief!
The first one really hit home. I had not heard it quite like that in the past. It's like taking your temperature compulsively, fearing the flu. Not the way to avoid it! Thank you for wisdom, as usual.
You have hit this head on with my brain and my struggles. I have decided to take notes and subscribe. So many secular counselors, but I need biblical and truth that does not fail. I use to compare my thinking to a ferris wheel. When you said spinning on some others, that was IT! I knew you got it. I am type A and OCD, with RUMINATING at the top. I love Jesus and have memorized so many verses, but I need practical help too and plan to follow close. Thank you Mark for your transparency. Teri
Just came across your vid for the first time and it was exactly what I need to hear right now! I have found myself doing all on this list at one time or another. It is comforting to know that it's not just me who is despairing, broken, depressed, crazy, weird, mentally damaged, etc., but that it's actually a common human condition. Knowing it's not "just me" is a relief. I love that you are a man of God because healing is found in Christ. The struggle is also REAL, but it's that struggle, that weakness, that despair, that leads us to the Healer and keeps us there. Thanks for this vid. I look forward to watching more. God bless you and your mission!!
This is really really good, so so true, I’m reading your books at present, very valuable. Thank you so much, not many within the church community talk about these topics.
Number 7 spoke to me. If I not do rituals now like wiping down walls and mopping etc... after cleaning turtle tank then family will bump up against walls later and make my life a living hel later at a time that should be a good time ( dinner, celabration)
Wow tho, Mark!😍 "I am right where I need to be to learn what I need to learn". Face, learn & grow in the right here & now. I would enter into cause & effect thinking...no more giving the accuser a megaphone or an invitation to condemn me, for I'm most certainly not under condemnation cuz I am n Christ Jesus!🙌🕊 Amén & eternal cheers brotha from anotha motha! 🙌💎🎁
My scrupulosity is so bad at times that I started to worry that hanging Christmas lights was too worldly and indulgent. It was causing that deep discomfort. And I started mulling back over my past and why I deserve a dark Christmas...Wait wait wait... God Himself is working with me on dealing with this. It can reach ridiculous levels easily! My recent prayer to God is "You are worthy of my trust."
I know what you mean. I had that exact same experience of not wanting Christmas to be too worldly or materialistic, it was and is hard to deal with. You are not alone!
All of them were a blessing. Thank you because my mind and thoughts are a constant battle field and this was very helpful. 🙌🏾 I’m making my way through many of your videos thank you Jesus for bringing me to this channel 🙏🏾
You feel what you feel. Allow yourself to simply be without judgement. Not looking for something outside yourself for answers, look inward. The truth is there no where else. Kingdom of heaven lies within, that’s where we look.
I find myself asking for help by stating," I can handle A, B, & C, But I need help with D & E, do you think you can help me with that?"... I'm finding it's a better result to get a little bit less done in a decent manner, than trying to get it all done, by myself. It doesn't impress anyone. Also, I'm allowing myself time to "PROCESS" my ancient "feelings", and then turning them over to God. It does take time. 1 min.2min...somtines 3min.😂
A couple weeks ago my pastor said comfort by comparison during his sermon. The I’m not as bad as they are mentality. It really resonated with me. Thank you for this video. It was super helpful.
Thanks for this. I just met you and became a subscriber. What you said hit a nerve on me. I’ve been dealing with a situation for years and you showed me HOW to approach all the mind “tricks “❤
I'm so sorry you had to deal with whatever your situation was for a matter of years. That's a long time to go through a struggle. I'm glad you found Mark and his channel! Wishing you all the best in your healing journey.
I Thank God for for Mark, who has gone through mental and emotional experience himself, and now to be able to help those who are going through it and not knowing how to deal with it is such a blessing from above. We are spiritual being, however, we are still in this carnal nature and we need to master our emotions. We walk by faith and not by sight. Sometimes easier said than done. So bro. Mark, thank you for this Ministry, first time I have anxiety attack. I did not know what to do with it nor deal with how i was feeling. Having my heart like it’s going to explode is so scary. Thank God for the scriptures and now this ministry. Started listening to your video. Totally totally helped me understand what is going on.
I believe I have lost it when I went into a hard resentment against God and I literally said I hated him and don't want to have anything to do with him. And not only I said that, I went into a harmful behaviour, which was super rebellious. I remember my inner environment has changed and I couldn't even access certain powers within myself, like confidence, risk taking, feeling of always present safety and unconditional love. I was so used to have all these like air in my lungs, so naturally, that I didn't recognise it to be a God's grace and love sustaining me this whole time. However, I felt it strongly once it was all gone and I started failing in everything that was coming easily and effortlessly to me before. So after have went through a desert, have messed up some very important things, I repented and his grace came back. So did the salvation I believe. It is my own experience
All of these were helpful. However, being critical of myself and controlling how people see me or think of me are the most difficult challenges. Also, being present because I am overcoming maladaptive daydreaming; something I have been doing since childhood. If you get this message, will you kindly say a prayer for my mental health and well-being please? Thank you Mark and God bless you!
Sometimes we did not do enough or we should have done more or something, and we have to noticed that and we have to have that mindset to change and try to not feel super super guilty
Mark would you ever consider going on the news to speak on OCD recovery with your book or better yet CBN’s 700 club!!! You could could speak on these issues and promote your book!😮
Thank you for this video. It's just what I needed to hear. The Lord wanted me to hear this, and it has given me so much to think about, I will watch this a few times to fully understand what the Lord is trying to show me, in this great video I see so much of myself, it has given me much to think about, thankyou.
1. Constantly checking and examining my feelings.
2. Increasing speed and pressure during stress.
3. Getting lost anywhere else in my mind that is not here.
4. Being critical on myself, especially when I'm down.
5. Obsessing over "what am I doing wrong" or "what should I be doing that I am not doing?"
6. Compulsively focusing on "fixing myself " VS learning to be loved and to live in love.
7. Catastrophizing
8. Comparing myself
9. Carrying people's burdens for them.
10. Controlling what people think of me.
Wow didn’t think anyone else felt these things and had these thoughts. I know I’m not alone and we will all get through this.
Thanks so much for the highlights. I was just wondering with my ADHD brain how'd I write these down without losing myself halfway through the sentence 😂 THANK YOU

@@thesacredmatt I agree 💯. His teaching is amazing. May God continues blessing him.
People say “there’s no good new music”. There is, they are just not well known or famous.
Same thing😅.
Because social media has made superstars out of losers.
Im going to have to watch this more than once. My intrusive thoughts are distracting me from hearing everything.
Ha! I can relate to this! Those stinkin’ intrusive thoughts or ADHD type distractions that make our minds wander.
This is changing my life. Everything you are talking about describes my life for years. Obsessing over my feelings and thoughts etc. Such a relief to have answers.

“Comparison is a thief of joy” thanks for the reminder
I get lost in my past when l should keep forward
Driving home from work today in tears wondering and asking God what is wrong with me? Thank you for your wisdom. God bless from Texas. 🙏🏻🙂

Same. I feel like Im trying to be a savior to certain people( how laughable).

I stopped doing one thing and it improved my life dramatically. 20 years ago I stopped being a fear ridden oppressed christian.

This what IF thinking and other people teaching "but, IF, else" is what led our thought astray. I can so relate to what you are saying.
Yes, yes, yes, yes! Same for me! Everything he talks about, I experienced, and have overcome through these types of principles! God is love!
wow. Truly many struggle.... I hope that your get closer to God and he will lift you up from the mud you walked into. I also struggle. God bless.

Your ministry is helping you continue to transform my life!
Just came across your vid for the first time and it was exactly what I need to hear right now! I have found myself doing all on this list at one time or another.

Knowing it's not "just me" is a relief. I love that you are a man of God because healing is found in Christ. The struggle is also REAL, but it's that struggle, that weakness, that despair, that leads us to the Healer and keeps us there. Thanks for this vid. I look forward to watching more. God bless you and your mission!!
Listening to this again because I just love it so much. #1 hadn’t occurred to me and I do it constantly…. Thank you!
Great videos, sir. I'm not a Christian but I do seek God's guidance in my life. Your videos are very helpful and I greatly appreciate your insights.
3 is my issue and your videos have been helping so much
You are such a blessing, Mark.❤ Take good care of yourself because you’re very special and important to us.😂❤
among other things, you have an incredible voice, pleasant to listen. Thank you for your work
This is really really good, so so true, I’m reading your books at present, very valuable. Thank you so much, not many within the church community talk about these topics.

4,5,6 and 10 especially stood out to me most and resonated with where I'm at right now. Thank you so much for your ministry
Thank you for this video! This is the story of my life without noticing.
Am so critical of myself
I don't mind checking and stimulating my joyful feelings!
Heard for a third time.. love ur videos. And needed this sooooo much. God creates all of us differently. Thank you Lord for who I am.

I know what you mean. I had that exact same experience of not wanting Christmas to be too worldly or materialistic, it was and is hard to deal with. You are not alone!
So good and so needed, all of it!
Your videos have been a great blessing thanks
Thank you for these awesome reminders! Needed. Blessings....
So helpful! Thank you!!!
I needed this video so much. Thank you. I'm in a new season of resting and receiving God's love. Every single thing you listed spoke to me.
All of them were a blessing. Thank you because my mind and thoughts are a constant battle field and this was very helpful. 🙌🏾
I’m making my way through many of your videos thank you Jesus for bringing me to this channel 🙏🏾
Which of these was helpful for you? Ummm, literally every single one! Thank you!❤
Thank you so much I needed to hear that
You feel what you feel. Allow yourself to simply be without judgement. Not looking for something outside yourself for answers, look inward. The truth is there no where else. Kingdom of heaven lies within, that’s where we look.
I find myself asking for help by stating," I can handle A, B, & C, But I need help with D & E, do you think you can help me with that?"... I'm finding it's a better result to get a little bit less done in a decent manner, than trying to get it all done, by myself. It doesn't impress anyone. Also, I'm allowing myself time to "PROCESS" my ancient "feelings", and then turning them over to God. It does take time. 1 min.2min...somtines 3min.😂
Thank you Mark and these are things are definitely relate to and want to work on!
sometimes have social media breaks can help you a lot for your mental health (no tv, No phone)
A couple weeks ago my pastor said comfort by comparison during his sermon. The I’m not as bad as they are mentality. It really resonated with me. Thank you for this video. It was super helpful.
Thanks for this. I just met you and became a subscriber. What you said hit a nerve on me. I’ve been dealing with a situation for years and you showed me HOW to approach all the mind “tricks “❤
I'm so sorry you had to deal with whatever your situation was for a matter of years. That's a long time to go through a struggle. I'm glad you found Mark and his channel! Wishing you all the best in your healing journey.
This is living in freedom. ☺️
On a 5 star rating, I give this video of Mark a 10. Best ever.
A lot of these but definitely #10 with fries and a chocolate milkshake.
Ha ha, Gabe, I second your statement! 😂
Lol love it😅
Now I want a milkshake, Lol!❤😂
Man your stuff is soooo great! Thanks
I feel like l don't have what it takes to love myself and money doesn't buy love
I Thank God for for Mark, who has gone through mental and emotional experience himself, and now to be able to help those who are going through it and not knowing how to deal with it is such a blessing from above. We are spiritual being, however, we are still in this carnal nature and we need to master our emotions. We walk by faith and not by sight. Sometimes easier said than done. So bro. Mark, thank you for this Ministry, first time I have anxiety attack. I did not know what to do with it nor deal with how i was feeling. Having my heart like it’s going to explode is so scary. Thank God for the scriptures and now this ministry. Started listening to your video. Totally totally helped me understand what is going on.
This was great helping me heal from a narcissist sister. Thank you Mark.
I can relate to all 10 lol…great teaching. Thank you!
I really should treasure in the moment
If Salvation is a free gift people say you can lose it 😢
I believe I have lost it when I went into a hard resentment against God and I literally said I hated him and don't want to have anything to do with him. And not only I said that, I went into a harmful behaviour, which was super rebellious. I remember my inner environment has changed and I couldn't even access certain powers within myself, like confidence, risk taking, feeling of always present safety and unconditional love. I was so used to have all these like air in my lungs, so naturally, that I didn't recognise it to be a God's grace and love sustaining me this whole time. However, I felt it strongly once it was all gone and I started failing in everything that was coming easily and effortlessly to me before. So after have went through a desert, have messed up some very important things, I repented and his grace came back. So did the salvation I believe. It is my own experience
@@viktoriavichkutkina9147 that was Awesome.He doesn't give up on you.
All of these were helpful. However, being critical of myself and controlling how people see me or think of me are the most difficult challenges. Also, being present because I am overcoming maladaptive daydreaming; something I have been doing since childhood. If you get this message, will you kindly say a prayer for my mental health and well-being please? Thank you Mark and God bless you!
Praying for you. I relate to much of what you said. You're not alone. God is in it with us. God bless you
@@Angelssing2her I appreciate you. God continue to bless you on your journey. We have the victory in Jesus name!
I stumbled over your channel today ❤🎉God led me here
May he bless you, your family and friends
BOY! Do I struggle with number 10. But I'm guilty of six through ten. Thank you for this video.
One of the most powerful and helpful videos. I’ve seen in a long long time. Really needed this today. Thank you.
Sometimes we did not do enough or we should have done more or something, and we have to noticed that and we have to have that mindset to change and try to not feel super super guilty
#10 even good friends do not understand no matter how hard we try to explain
Thank you so much for this broadcast. This is very helpful.
Wow! I needed this today!! I’m listening again and will over and over again thank you Mark! 🙏❤️
Mark would you ever consider going on the news to speak on OCD recovery with your book or better yet CBN’s 700 club!!! You could could speak on these issues and promote your book!😮
I did speak on CBN.
@@marktdejesus oh awesome! I’ll check it out! Thank you Mark!
Thank you for this video. It's just what I needed to hear. The Lord wanted me to hear this, and it has given me so much to think about, I will watch this a few times to fully understand what the Lord is trying to show me, in this great video I see so much of myself, it has given me much to think about, thankyou.
Gotta go I have no, patience when listening to long, it’s me, not you!
