[@hey_brea]

[@inezheinemann9617]

Literally SAME like God is soooo goooood🥹❤️

[@myrabanda8459]

Amen

[@smileyfroggyz]

I was recommended this video just as I was worrying about this, I’m so thankful 😭❤ God is so good!!!!

[@statesashley0416]

Well he doesn't "make us" do anything as Ashley had stated in her video that he doesn't force himself upon you but rather maybe say like he put the desire on your heart and kind of nudged you a little bit to watch this would probably be a better terms of word. I'm not a grammar Nazi or trying to correct you but God does not force us to do anything. So when we say that God made us do this or do that it makes him sound like we're an obligation to do something like we don't have free will or free choice because we do have free will. So I guess what I'm trying to say is when we say the things and say that God makes us do this or that it just sounds controlling and God is not controlling like that. He tells us the truth in his word in love and treats us with kindness and etc so that's who he is He's not a controlling forceful person. Again, don't take offense to this I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi or correct or anything like that but We have to watch how we word things too because God is not a control freak.

[@yasminoliveira4822]

I did it this morning and it was great. I decided to wake up at 6 am and felt so close to God and now I'm going to do it every day.

[@ashleyhetherington_]

You go girlyyyy ❤️❤️❤️

[@tduyt1]

❤‍🔥I'm a 58yr old woman, and learn and grow so much from your videos! Keep up the good work Ashley! You are impacting women of all ages for God's kingdom!

[@rayna6284]

I prayed for God to set a fire in my heart this morning. This was the first video in my feed. God is so good 💗✨

[@ashleyhetherington_]

He really is! All the time 🥹

[@DaphlovesChrist]

This summer I will prioritize THE LORD. AMEN ❤ LORD HELP ME AND GUIDE ME REMOVE ALL BURDENS I AM TRYING TO CARRY AND HELP ME ONLY CARRY YOUR BURDEN FOR YOURS IS LIGHT ❤❤❤

[@ashleyhetherington_]

In Jesus’ name!!

[@austinwalden3433]

Back in 2017, i listened to music of jesus on the ✝️ and when I watched the bible TV series that changed me in my heart. idk how to explain this, but I felt his presence in my life, and he had his hand touched my heart. My heart grew stronger than I had ever felt before. Then he said I forgive you, and I will always be with you. I remembered I couldn't stop crying at all like 7 days. I realized this was jesus' holy presence showing me to remember forever. I pray for everyone that can find in their hearts to learn and to see the lord presence with a heart touch to be forgiven. Jesus will always be with us forever ♥️ ✝️ 🙏

[@ShalomAlem]

Beautiful testimony

[@austinwalden3433]

@ShalomAlem thanks 😊 it was a miracle

[@myrabanda8459]

Amen

[@Kayla-r9h]

❤️‍🔥 The enemy really did try but God always PREVAILS.

[@emman13]

I have been feeling so distant from God and it has been hard to read my Bible or devotional everyday recently, your videos give me motivation to do it and really help me in my faith. Thanks so much Ashley I love your videos! ❤️❤️❤️‍🔥

[@ashleyhetherington_]

Hi sweet! Im glad this video helped! We are in this journey together 💕💕

[@Biblical_Nature]

Just remember, guys, when you're feeling stagnate or like you're falling behind, most of the time, that's what God uses to propell you forward! 👐❤️

[@ashleyhetherington_]

Yesss! Thanks for sharing this on here sister ❤️

[@Biblical_Nature]

@@ashleyhetherington_ of Course! 😁

[@Kinsley-rz8gs]

❤️‍🔥hey so i am 12 and i wa t to become closer to the lord and getting the right mindset so i bet u r thinking people that watch ur video older but u really do help me find what to do

[@madisynbinkowski]

starting young is even better!!! i’m so glad you are doing that

[@priscillawoelke5899]

Starting when you're young is beautiful! 1 Timothy 4:12 says, "Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity." This video is so helpful for knowing how to become closer with the Lord. The only advice I can really give you is to rely on the Lord for all things, realizing that you need Him in every moment, and the things in this video will become easy and not like a chore, like sometimes we make it to be.

[@Kinsley-rz8gs]

she has told me what to do to grow my relationship with god and what she does and says and what she does makes me want to do this things. Anther thing that is good is that when people like yall comment on my comments i feel this goodness bc i am not only on this walk with god also ashley making videos about how to become the best version of ur self with the lord

[@Kookingwjessica]

I’m 12 too you’re not alone

[@statesashley0416]

God is so good putting the desire in our hearts when we ask for help! ❤

[@couldbemiley8704]

I am such a lukewarm. I hope to be closer to him like I used to. Thank you for this video you truly are a blessing!

[@Simplywhimsy]

Just started praying for this a few weeks ago! I want to be BOLD for God and tell everyone about Jesus! ❤ your content!❤️‍🔥

[@planntingseeeds]

Jesus always loves you a lot! Praise the Lord! Loved the Lord our God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength! HAVE FAITH! REPENT! TRUST IN GOD! ✝️💓🐑🙏🏻

[@manda6077]

So so true about the relationship with God. Couldn't be any more true. Distance was between God and I and I didn't feel him as much but when I'm on it and praying to him and talk to him at all times I feel he is within me it's so cool and strange and crazy but such a simple concept!

[@ashleyhetherington_]

i feel you sis! Relationship with God is such a beautiful beautiful thing. ❤️

[@sarahkendrick7821]

Literally seeing this video I almost didn't click it and watch a different video but i literally just felt like I needed to. It's Sunday and I slept through going to church I felt bad and said "I'll like listen to a christian podcast, read my bible and journal" but I haven't yet. Until i watched this video and am not reminded to take my time with the lord. Also thank you for the helpful websites and book recommendations I will be looking at those.❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@Melissa_Hoffman]

Ashley. When I tell you the TIMING of this video! I was just a little bit ago having a conversation with my sister. She has been worried about me lately with my music choices. Tbh I have been lukewarm! This past year has been insane and would be very long for me to type out the whole story, but it resulted in me losing some of my faith along the way. I know God is real and that he loves me, I just need to believe it again. I really needed this video to put my heart back into perspective. Thank you so much for being so bold with your faith. It is truly inspiring. I go to a University where it can be hard to share my faith and so I have mad respect for people like you. Thank you for all you do to help us. God Bless 💛

[@Melissa_Hoffman]

@Maliah_Faith Thank you! I will keep you in my prayers as well 😊

[@PedroDiaz-kd9ox]

Hi guys I’m ten years old and I’m really struggling to obey God instead of what my flesh says so pls pray for me and God bless y’all also pls pray for me and my family to grow closer to God but anyways byee guys God bless you all!😄❤️‍🔥

[@Skylerblue434]

Hi Ashley keep preaching

[@__.Miaa.__]

❤️‍🔥I honestly feel like when I think of spending time with God I feel like it’s a huge hard task. I know the enemy is up to this but I feel burnt out in a way.

[@samt868]

[@alinah7413]

I am in the middle of my Daniel fast and at the same time have so much to do with my study and home/ church commitments, that I was concerned that I don't spend enough time with God.. I became more and more anxious about everything and have had a breakdown today.. and after watching your video I realised what was wrong. I need to prioritise my time with Jesus before everything else, to become that peace and power over anxiety and fear. Thank you for reminding me❤‍🔥

Love you Ashley! Edit: Wow! Just after your second camera cut & before your outro, I rummaged in this little bin of stickers I have at my desk and i pulled out a few random ones. I put two of them down and as I read the third, you were talking about seeing who was "still here" and the sticker in my hand literally reads "Still here, still strong"

[@ChildofGod-xo2uz]
