Easy, Versatile Butter Pecan Cake along with a bonus segment

I needed that prayer. Leslie I lost my daughter last week. She was 53. So hard. I pray for I miss her so so much. But I know where she is. Thank you again. I think that prayer was for alot of us.

[@AnnaleeJohnson-p9g]

So sorry

[@suzannest-laurentdvorak459]

So many experience down / sad times, especially since the pandemic. Thanks for reminding us to look for the positive and the beauty that god gives us every day. Like this morning, I was sad that we didn’t get the sun that we were suppose to have,then I saw this rescue video of a little girl and her family being rescued from the rubbles of that devastating earthquake. It reminded me to be thankful for every day we are given, with sun, rain or shine and to pray for others are are going through far worse then us. So thanks for the reminder and for this devotion as well as this recipe. God bless.🙏🏻😘and THANK YOU

[@carolrifon6337]

First, I am going to make the cake when I get to the grocery store. Now, more important to me, and I bet others, I wish, and I have asked before, Leslie, if you could just do a devotion like every other week, or even weekly. You are such a wonderful teacher.. You touch my heart and I bet there are others that need to take that 5 minutes to just listen.. We all go thru days that we wish we did not have to.. I have told you my troubles, they may never change, yet I have to move ahead. Please find time to do a devotion once in a while.. Thanks Leslie for everything you do.. You are so loved...

[@cherylchandler-whitcomb3232]

I just made this tonight, it was wonderful. So good , cooled 10 minutes & it fell out of pan. I had 2 pieces, thank you for enabling!! Will make again.

Love this video. My husband asked me to make the cake. So I'm going to make it for him for Valentine's Day. When it got to your devotion I had to pause the video because we were getting ready to go somewhere. So this Sunday morning I watched it and your words were exactly what I needed. Thank you and God bless.

[@Unit38]

A while back while walking around You Tube one night, I came across your channel. This devotion you gave struck a chord in my heart when you talked about your husband who spent some time battling anxiety and fears. I've been going thru the same for awhile now. I stand a liar if I say I did not shed a few tears while watching this. Thank you for the "God wink."

[@virginiamesko6369]

You are just lit from within with the Holy Spirit, Leslie. Thank you for your prayer and devotional today. The cake was a great recipe for the body. The devotional was good for my soul.

[@karenbrewer5864]

Thank you so much for this devotional and your prayer today. I’m having some anxiety problems again and I know you all understand that too well. Please say a prayer for me. During this devotion, I thought about the song “Turn your eyes upon Jesus”. When I get anxious, I sing this song. I would love for you to do a devotion often, maybe at least once a week. Thank you!♥️😊🙏💗

[@darrelynkelley6925]

Your devotion really touched me today. Since July 2020, I have been through so much - only child moving 3 hours away, daddy died, mom died, and other difficulties. I want to be happy again. I need to start thinking of others first instead of putting myself first. I want to give God winks to others. Thank you! As for others who wants you to do more devotions, I think it's more important to do what the Holy Spirit leads you to do instead of what the world wants you to do. I love you Leslie. I love your love for the Lord and your love for people. God bless you!

Thank you so much for your devotional...my sister just passed away and it is so hard to move on without her. She will not have to suffer any longer. I have prayed many prayers over her and God decided to take her home...knowing and serving God is a true blessing for me. I also believe in reaching out to help someone who may be struggling. And then just to let them know Jesus loves them and is there for them. I am so blessed and those blessings come from him. You have such a beautiful spirit and there is a shining light within. I pray God will bless you for reaching out.

[@homeboundmama9968]

Hey ms. Beautiful❤, well it's just not been the best of week. My son has had his surgery. They kept him to make sure he didn't have a spinal cord leakage, praise the Lord he didn't. During that time they went by asking him questions on pain meds, not looking at his per- op paper work and didn't put a catheter in him so his Blatter split. He's home with that catheter and his staples. Praise God he's getting much better now. Please keep him in your prayers.

[@monicamoore111]

I haven’t made this cake in a very long time. When I was little my Momma made a butter pecan cake and they made butter pecan icing that went with it. They quit making that icing years ago. My brother and I still talk about that delicious icing. Thanks for the word today. You are a blessing to so many and God will bless you for it. Love you guys!! ❤

[@anncleary7241]

Leslie, my Mama made the Butter Pecan Cake and of course I learned to make it from her. I have no idea where she got the recipe but it is good. I try to keep all the ingredients on hand because when you need a good quick dessert that one is it. I also listened to your devotion. You are right on target. We all have hard times but I always say no matter what your situation is there is always something good in it. You may have to look for it but it is there. Back in September I had one of my kidneys removed because of cancer. Cancer is not something you want but the good thing in my situation was that the cancer was contained in the kidney and I didn't have to have any kind of treatment. That was my blessing for which I am grateful.

[@jaysmith2522]

I make this cake but I call it the inside out cake. your devotional was great.

You are so heart felt and the love and emotions that you feel jump right off the screen. You're right no matter who you are times can be hard. So many think when you have Jesus in your life you are living a Mary Poppins life. LOL Well we know that isn't true at all. BUT we have his PROMISE always that things can get back on track when we listen to him. Wondering too where did you get that adorable bowl that you was cracking your eggs into. That was so cute.

I don't care how bad things have been, I have always seen some way God has shown His love to me. And when the day comes that you can help someone else going through the same battle by sharing how God guided you, nothing can compare! God is always with you, blessing you!
