Today I want to speak to you about something every believer encounters at some point in their walk with God — the tension between what we believe about God and who He is, and what we are actually experiencing in real life. Many of us, especially in our African context, have been shaped by extremes of the prosperity gospel or have come from cultures where expressing pain, confusion, or raw emotion feels uncomfortable or even taboo. Because of this, when life becomes difficult, when prayers seem unanswered, or when God feels silent or distant, we don’t always know how to process it. We can feel alone, confused, disappointed, or even frustrated — unsure of how to express what’s really happening inside us and how to process who God is, experientially.

Faces of Anxiety - Stage Fright and Speaking Up | Paul Nyamuda
One of the major growth steps for a lot of people in the corporate world, in civic society and even in churches, is learning how to speak up. Many people were raised in households where they were told children must be seen not heard. In psychology there's what’s called transference; very often the experiences we have in childhood with our primary caregivers are transferred on to our current relationships as adults.
