This is true and the sad thing is they will convince others you are the villain.

When someone can’t face what you reflected back to them, you become the problem.

The research on this is consistent: the mind builds protection patterns early, and one of them is assigning blame outward to keep the self-image intact.

Holding someone accountable triggers their threat response. Your honesty became the threat. That’s about their pattern, not your integrity.

What you did was clear-eyed. What they did with it is theirs to carry.

Look ahead to the Author and finisher of our Faith.

Look ahead--leave the "weights" of the past behind.

𝙒𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙖 𝙣𝙚𝙬 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣.

Do not be taking things into this new time and season that are obsolete, detrimental, toxic, or expired. Spend time looking into your heart and resolving issues that can be potential “strings” that can affect your future. They can be triggers that tug you back into past unhealthy responses or relationships.

Do not be pulled down into the pit of yesterday's failures. The failures have given you strength, power, and authority.

As my friend would say, "Don't Back Down."

Ask for help to 'cut the strings."

Forgiveness:

The following is a profound statement when Jesus was on the cross-- think on this and let it soak into your whole being.

Luke 23:34 The Crucifixion
𝑊ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑐𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑑 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑘𝑢𝑙𝑙, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑐𝑟𝑢𝑐𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑒𝑑 𝐻𝑖𝑚 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒, 𝑎𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑠, 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑜𝑛 𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑟𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑛 𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑙𝑒𝑓𝑡. 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝐽𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑠 𝑠𝑎𝑖𝑑, “𝑭𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓, 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎, 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒅𝒐 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒅𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒈.” (𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑢𝑝 𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑔𝑎𝑟𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑏𝑦 𝑐𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑙𝑜𝑡𝑠.”…

It was radical! It revealed mercy in the face of gross injustice. He saw their ignorance, acknowledged it. Rather than condemning them He showed unconditional love.

It was not sentimental. It is brawny and was costly, bought with a His blood.

You and I are free to receive forgiveness and step out from the shadow of condemnation, walking forward in grace instead.

There are moments for joy, connection, and reflection.
--There are times that invite us to speak, listen, share laughter or tears, and express emotions. In such moments, we seek presence and perspective—rising above to gain clarity and experience the richness of divine love and glory.

Stillness and silent communication foster meaningful engagement.
These moments encourage us to transcend the material and natural, finding comfort and inspiration enveloped in God's love.

Deep calls to Deep.

He leaves a legacy of changed lives.

Doug went to be with his Savior and Best Friend, Jesus, early this morning, on January 26, 2026, at 12:50 a.m. He died from the devastating effects of a neurologic disorder. He passed peacefully, and while this loss is truly heartbreaking, we also find comfort in knowing that Doug is now fully restored—dancing on streets of gold, in the presence of the Lord, whom he loved so dearly.

Doug was a gifted Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teacher who equipped and encouraged thousands to step into their God-given destiny. He was a faithful servant of the Lord, a trusted friend, and a source of hope and encouragement to many. He will be deeply missed by all whose lives he touched.

At this time, no memorial service has been scheduled. Details regarding Doug’s Celebration of Life, including any streaming opportunities, will be shared as they become available.

We thank you for your prayers, love, and continued support during this time, especially for Doug's beloved wife, Linda, his partner of 30 years. Though we grieve, we do not grieve without hope, for Doug is now home with Jesus.

With love in Christ,
Linda Addison, the InLight Connection Board of Directors, and the InLight Connection Staff

People who become trapped in shame and fear may not yet realize that forgiveness is available to them.

In Christ, grace overflows without measure.

Let us not be counted among those who cast stones, but among those who pause, pray, and take responsibility for how we may have contributed to the illusions and elevation of celebrity movements.

We must be willing to face our fear, to ask for forgiveness, and to receive it.

Christ alone is perfect. We are not, and that is precisely why grace was given.

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, we bow before You and bring before You those who are bound in shame and fear, those who have not yet seen that forgiveness still stands open to them. Your grace is bountiful and without limit. It reaches the most hidden places of the heart.

Keep us, O God, from participating in throwing stones. Instead, let us be those whoget quiet to pause, pray, and who examine our own hearts. Show us where we may have participated, knowingly or unknowingly, in elevating illusions and movements built on human fame rather than Your truth.

Give us courage to face our fears, to confess our sins, and to receive the forgiveness You so freely offer. Remind us that Christ alone is perfect. We are not, and it is for this very reason that grace was given.

May Your mercy lead us into repentance, Your truth into freedom, and Your love into wholeness.

Seize the day, stay in your lane, and keep your eyes fixed ahead. Walk with intention and focus, so you do not wander off the path prepared for you.

Stay On the Course

There may seem to be an urgency from the world and the spirutal community to get involved with the issues. The Scriptures reminds us that direction matters as much as desire. “Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you” (Proverbs 4:25). When we scatter our focus, we drift. When we fix our eyes forward, God steadies our steps.

Staying in our own lane is not limitation, it is wisdom. Hebrews tells us to “run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:1–2). Comparison, distraction, and fear can pull us off course, but clarity keeps us aligned with God’s purpose.

Seizing the day begins with focus. As Isaiah declares, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You” (Isaiah 26:3). Today, choose attentiveness over anxiety, obedience over distraction, and faith over fear.

Prayer
Lord, help me keep my eyes fixed on You and my steps steady on the path You have set before me. Guard my focus, strengthen my resolve, and lead me forward in peace. Amen.

Performance orientation is living for others approval and yes, a person loses themself in the process. Get help, get healing to break the patterns. Plan to make an appointment in the new year.

People-pleasing may feel like your personality, but it’s actually a pattern.

And patterns can be rewired. ⏰

Your brain may have learned to associate approval with safety, but your mind has the power to interrupt that loop. The mind can observe the brain’s reactions and choose a new response.

This is the beauty of mind management.
You don’t have to stay stuck in cycles of overgiving, self-editing, or shrinking to keep the peace.

You are allowed to think for yourself, even if others don’t like it.
You are allowed to say no and still be worthy.
You are allowed to break the habit without breaking connection to who you are.
