How to Get Rid of Your Dark Side: God Reveals a Secret That Psychologists Don't Know
Psychologists call it the “shadow side of personality.” But God says something different. More precise. More liberating. The darkness within you has no name. It takes a name from you. Stop giving the darkness a name, and it will lose its power over you.
Gospel of the Kingdom
You’ve been battling your dark side all your life—anger, fear, despondency. Psychologists call it the “shadow side of personality.” Jung said: integrate the shadow. But God says something different. More precise. More liberating.
The darkness within you has no name. It takes a name from you. “I’m evil.” “I’m a loser.” “I’m a sinner”—you give it a home.
Stop giving the darkness a name, and it will lose its power over you.
Instead of “I’m angry,” say, “anger has come.” Instead of “I’m depressed,” say, “a state of depression is passing through me.” Observe. Don’t claim it. A name is a possession.
The greatest victory is not to destroy the dark side. But to stop considering it yourself.
Your name is sacred. Given to you by God at birth. Don’t give it to darkness.
