It's not thinking at all. It's overt cognitive dissonance. That's the problem with the health wealth and prosperity bunch. They think themselves so spiritual that no reality can penetrate their fortification.
You ask one how they are doing they have some insipid response, like, blessed more than I deserve. Rather than confess the truth, when they are dealing with something. It's absurd how they are unable to be honest because having any emotion other than elation over Jesus isn't spiritual. "My mom died, but I'm doing cart wheels down the halls for Jesus." I'm so happy. Forgetting the scripture admonishing us to morn with those who morn.
There are many; literally dozens of scripture passages given to strengthen us and support us in lonely times; because we will be lonely at times. That is why those passages are there. To carry us through those times. If we can't confess those lonely feelings then how can those scriptures support and strengthen us, and why would they be written?
