When the World Tells You to Rise, Faith Says Fall

Have you ever noticed how the most profound truths often appear contradictory? While countless passages speak of Christ's love for his Father and for humanity, there's a conspicuous absence of any reference to his self-love. This stands in stark contrast to our modern preoccupation with self-love, self-forgiveness, and self-acceptance. What if the path to true happiness isn't found in lifting ourselves up but in allowing ourselves to fall? What if joy comes not from feeling good about ourselves but from breaking open our hearts in humility? This counterintuitive wisdom reveals a divine paradox: we must surrender to rise, lose ourselves to find ourselves, and fall down to be lifted up. Jeff Watson sat alone in his darkened office, his soul as shadowed as the room around him. His wife had taken their children to her parents' for the weekend-a temporary arrangement foreshadowing permanent separation. Between sobs, he revealed years of secret struggle-living hypocritically, growing bitter while outwardly professing forgiveness. He feared rumors, losing his church calling, career damage, and most devastatingly, harming his children. This experience revealed something surprising: when unhappy, almost all our intuitions about finding happiness lead us astray. The promising path is routinely the one we'd never consider because it seems absurdly wrong.
