He's Gone 💔

[@queenwarrentv]

Sis you got me over here crying. Wow Jay has went off to the Navy. Congratulations! I could only imagine the worry as a parent! I’m going to certainly keep him and your family lifted up in prayer. My God keep him covered. 🙏🏾❤️🥰

[@devo6867]

My Parents had to watch me leave for Air Force basic training 37 years ago. It expanded my horizons in ways I couldn’t imagine. I made some wonderful friends and learned a type of discipline I couldn’t have possibly learned anywhere else. I’ll be praying for you all🙏🏾 You’ll be so proud when he graduates.

[@06Joybells]

Amen.

[@zariahwilliams9893]

I’ve been watching you since i was 15, i am now 20 and i still watch you now. I will be in the navy 2 years this year. Stationed in Japan, the navy has opened up so many opportunities for me at a young age and I’ve got to see so many places I wouldn’t have thought of doing! I pray that he strives as a sailor!

[@angelag.johnson1985]

Thank you for your service. My brother,nephew and brother in law were all navy. Enjoy and see all you can. Stay Safe.

[@LeilaChristie1]

lol sameeeeee I remember when they lived in Ohio, I feel like a cousin atp, and good luck with the navy!!!!!

[@lifewithjayda]

[@Dr.ZabrinaLife]

I definitely understand. Your son will do well. When their mind is made up, that’s what they want to do. It’s their calling. God got your baby. 🙏🏾 My son received so much good advice. He switched to active duty Marine, that was a blessing. It was difficult for me when my son went to the Marine Corps right after high school. I actually signed the paperwork when he was 17. I knew it was coming because he started researching in Junior High; Navy or Marine. I had him to join JROTC. His recruiter was great. He needed that. His dad drowned before his first Birthday so to have male role models was perfect. He’s been to Germany and Italy. He’s honorably discharged and working in Information Technology the company wants him to manage all of their companies. I help veterans find jobs and my son is so blessed to be in a career. I’m glad he changed his MOS from infantry. 🙏🏾

[@ramonalovick3926]

My daughter left for basic training and her first duty station was Germany. We are a military family but it hits different when it’s your child. It’s scary to know your child is going into the den of wolves, but God. Jay will stand out from others which will cause him to have favor wherever he goes. You and Cleveland have raised your Jay/ children well and they will not depart from God nor the upbringing yall instilled in them. Love you sis

[@BritgirlTX]

⬆This!!! Mine is in the Air Force and we are a retired military fam. 🇺🇸🌎

[@lvngu2]

No matter how old your children get, they will always be your baby! A mother’s love for her child is one of the best things on this earth. Know that God has a hedge of protection around him and prayers to him in his new journey. Thank you so much for the devotional. I really needed that. Sometimes we forget whose we are and let ourselves worry so much that it affects our well being. I remember this scripture as a child we always read every Sunday, “ And Let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which ye are called in one body and be ye thankful” Colossians 3:15 KJV. Thank you for uploading 😊

[@koyaaa4563]

Praying for protection over Jay much love to the whole family 🙏🏾

[@kassinegerrell7903]

My nephew just joined the navy. He just finished basic training in Chicago also. God has Jay covered🙏🏽

Hello JaVloge, and family. I been subscribed to you, since you first came out on KZbin. I don't comment much, but I do enjoy all your video's. I have seen your children grow. You,and Cleveland did a wonderful job. They are fine adults. I do know the feeling. My husband, and I only have one child (son) he is grown now, with a lovely family of his own. When he was going away to College, I cried like a baby. He didn't see me crying. We want to shield our children, from this cruel world. Which is unrealistic. God is in control of Everything. If I remember. Didn't Jay,always wanted to go in the Navy? He,and your family will be alright. I was crying, with you too. May God continue to Bless your beautiful family. ❤❤

[@kmariicalloway9810]

Me too I though someone might’ve died or something

[@annpowell5796]

Lord Sis, you had me worried. You're an awesome Mom, and Jay is blessed and will be fine. He's gonna look so handsome in uniform, so get a cute picture frame ready. I'm a mother of two, and I know that feeling. Just get those snacks boxes ready to ship to him, and before you know it, he will be home for a visit. Sending hugs your way. Tell Cleveland and the girls to hang in there, too.

[@mybrianlips2387]

nope just another youtuber with a manipulative clickbait title. gotta get those views up.

[@dequitarogers5490]

[@tahashajackson292]

My daughter joined the Army three years ago. She enlisted and she left for basic training 7 days later. The tears I shed. I cried every day she was gone and I wrote her letters every day. I understand how you feel 💯. When you have to let your grown babies go and live their lives it just hurts your heart. The saving grace was prayer and me knowing I raised her to be a good person.

[@spacegang690]

Praying for you!🙏🏾 you got this! I have many family members that have went out to join the force and I know it’s tough but like you’ve said god has got him and you all too. Love you and sending peace and blessings your way❤

[@lemonyolanda1974]

🙏🏾 Hey sis!! The tears are definitely flowing over here! You and Cleveland have done an amazing job with raising your babies! It’s normal to show emotion when your children leave the nest! Jay is definitely covered and I’ll be praying for him and the entire family while he take on his new journey. Also, I live in the Chicago area, don’t hesitate to let me know if you need anything while he’s here for training! Take care, Javonne and family🤗🤗🤗

[@itsdoseoftia]

One thing I know, is God will never put his children in harms way. Jay will be okay. You’ll look back and be grateful for the path. Jay was raised by two amazing parents and he will be shielded with the blood of Jesus and kept out of harms way. Your KZbin family is praying for his coverage and success. He’s becoming the man you’ve raised him to be. You’re probably thinking it’s easier said by those that aren’t in the family but trust me, everything will be okay. I am faithful and know this because our father will ensure this. Jay will make you proud. God bless Javonne, we love y’all❤

[@lemonyolanda1974]

🙋🏾‍♀️🌹Thank you to everyone that is supporting Jalen, our good sis Javonne and the Beard family @ this difficult time! He is covered and definitely will DO GREAT! Thank you for ALL of the positive comments! God bless everyone 🙏🏾❤️🤗

[@athomewithmelissa]

I’m 56 and the worst years thus far of my life were the 3 yrs my youngest son was in the Army.One year he did in Afghanistan.I missed him terribly and worried so much his time in Afghanistan.So I understood how you feel.My sons senior year he had already planned on joining and I tried that whole senior year to convince him not to join.My son was already a very respectful and good young man.The army just fine tuned what was already there.💝🙏🏻

[@AllthingsShannon]

Praying for you and the family. We as mothers are nurturers. I know exactly how you feel. My husband said he’s going to be fine. Just keep the faith. When we saw them last week my husband said Jay is all buff and fit😂 He’s going to be just fine💪🏾♥️🙏🏾

[@06Joybells]

Yes I remember seeing him in the Vlog last week too. He’s a strong man and he is going to be a decorated United States Navy Sailor. I could not be more proud of him. May God Bless him.

[@4evaluvGS]

Javonne this video was so touching and it resonated with me on many subjects. My husband and I also shielded our children from this cold cold world. Jay will be fine because of what you and Cleveland instilled into him❤. I’m normally not one to post but I watch all of your videos, the end of your video had me in tears still does. That bible verse was definitely for me as my husband passed in Nov/2023. I have found myself feeling every bit of what you read. Thank you for sharing and reminding me of Gods words❤.

[@toridajour4308]

Ive been watching you from day one! Literally grew up with your kids . Ill be 27 this year ! But i defitnely shedded a tear when you talked about Jay because you guys are all close . But GOD got him and is going to protect him at all time . Also there are donation places for glasses frames in FL.

Girl I was over here so touched by your emotions about your Jay going into the Navy. I am so glad you found the calm devotional to help you sleep at night, it was good for me as well.

Sending prayers your way to give you and your family peace and comfort, knowing that Jay has the shield of protection over him, In Jesus Name Amen 🙏🏾🙏🏾. Love you Sis 💕💕

Awe Jay, I know this is going to be great for him. He's going to have the opportunity to travel learn & meet new people, didnt his older brother Clevon go into the military also

[@Simplytara81]

I truly understand how you feel I try to shelter my kids myself and there 20,21,22 because this world out here is cruel. But just keep your faith and praying that you have raised your kids right and that God is there protection so are we as parents. I love watch your videos I really needed to hear that because I see I’m not alone in wanting to just shelter our kids from hurt, harm danger and this world.

[@mynameisjayne4755]

Congrats Jay! My son joined the National Guard against my will, but I support him. He is only 18 and he goes to basic training in May after he graduates from high school and early college. You just have to pray and believe that every thing you have taught and instilled in him he will use. I know it’s hard but we have to let them go off and live their own lives. Japan? How cool! He’s going to learn so much while stationed there. The navy will offer him great opportunities, experiences, people skills, benefits and so much more. I’m going to be like you in a few months and I’m send you extra hugs because I know it is not easy. Congrats again Jay! I can’t wait to see all that you accomplish!

[@ChaoticCountry]

I'm so sorry Momma. No one talks about how hard this stage of life is when our babies step out away from our wing of protection. I'm praying for you all. Praying it gets easier as time passes and the Lord protects him through this. Congratulations momma on raising such a strong man! ❤

[@AmoreKristin]

I completely understand how you are feeling. My nephew is leaving for Poland in a few weeks. It does something unexplainable to your heart

[@sweetladee55]

That devotional speaks to me in my present situation. I know as Virgo women, we tend to think of the "what if's", but at the same time, we are very optimistic. I know your mind will go back and forth from time to time, but I hope you find your "calm" as I know I will find mine. God Bless you!

[@lorrainekey9944]

I went through the same thing when my son went into the navy. I had a good cry and gave it to god and he protected him. God will watch over jay.

[@ShondaDoray1]

My friends 19 year old son just graduated basic training in the Navy this week! He loves it so far! Jay will do awesome as well! We're claiming it and His protection in Jesus name!

[@Srstein01]

It was definitely meant for me to watch this. My son just moved out and though he's not far, I've been struggling because like you, I want to protect my children. My son just turned 24 and when you were tearing up about Jay I was right with you! Praying for him and your family. And I'm going to read that Devotional today. Thank you for sharing and being transparent

[@BenitiaKimball]

I will be praying God give you strength. No matter how old our children get they are still our babies. 🙏🏾

[@wodawe3]

I definitely understand how you feel I'm the same way my son left for the Navy right after he turned 25 on March 10th he left for bootcamp on March 30th I knew he was safe there but I literally cried everyday up until his graduation day even though I spoke with him every two weeks on a saturday before his graduation. It was the thought of my baby leaving me I definitely wanted to sheild him from the world he was a homebody he went to work & came home. The funny part is he signed up for the Navy on my hubby his father's birthday 1/24/23 he surprised us after his party & yesterday was his father birthday 1/24/24 #navymom #navydad

[@BritgirlTX]

Count down those weeks to graduation Javonne. Send him those motivational letters. I know you are already proud … but wait until graduation day! 🇺🇸⚓️🌎. I hope he gets to go to HI … he will love it … I lived there 4 years.☀️🏝️🌸

[@Babygel]

If my brother had ever joined the military or navy I think I would have cried as well cause me and my brother are super tight but thank goodness he didn’t joined cause the military and navy families are always getting bad and good news about their kids or parents but even though my brother is 29 and turning 30 in march even though he lives so far I still talk to my brother and check up on him but anyways always stay positive and strong and know that you’re son will be okay you don’t have to worry just know that his angels and that god is watching him while he is in the navy always pray and think about the positive energy keep calm and stay healthy and happy your son will be okay just know we will always support you ❤❤

OMG! I remember when my only son joined the Army. I am a military brat in a military family. He has been in 7 years and I am so proud of him! He has been stationed 12 hr and 6 hr drive away. He was in South Korea during COVID. He is currently deployed (9 months) and I do not know where he is. 😱 I won’t know where he was until he returns (Feb). I can at least talk to him and do video calls. I miss him so much! It was definitely tough upfront but it gets a little easier as time goes by. I’m that mom that still talks to him every week. 💕🤗

[@nicoleford7127]

I know exactly how you feel . My son joined the Army last June and I’ve been a mess . He’s my first born and a mother and sons love is different. What makes it easier for me is that he is enjoying what he’s doing . I keep my Gabriel in my prayers and when he came home for Christmas I made sure that I anointed him before he went back . God has got our young men they will be just fine 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼.

Javonne, I pray for you and your family, especially Jay on his new journey. Yes, I shed many years with you sister. It is such a crazy world that we live in, but God is watching over him and is with him. Yes, it's hard to let go. My son moved to Arizona and I tried everything in my power to get him to stay home. But I had to let go and put him in God's hands. I love the bond that you have with your babies. My oldest is 35 and he's still my baby. You and Cleveland did an awesome job raising your children. I have so much love for you all. Keep calm sweetheart, God got you all. I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers. I love you and continue to keep calm ❤

Hey Beautiful Sis, You know that I have been watching you and your beautiful family from the beginning and I know, I don’t comment enough, but I had to when I watched this video you had me in tears I truly understand. I am the same way with my four babies. They all are almost adults now and watching them grow up is so bitter sweet when my first daughter left home at 18 that broke my heart and I still have three at home now and I just don’t know what I would do if another one of them or all of them leave home with me being a single mom I would feel so sad and alone I just love them so much, and like you said, I just wanna protect them from all the evil in this world., my children are such wonderful children and people and I’m so proud of each and everyone of them. You and Cleveland have done a wonderful job with your children and I know that Jay is covered by the blood of Jesus, stay strong in the Lord sis, keeping you and your family in my prayers God bless and much love.💖🙏🏽

[@lifewithjayda]

Hey Javonne. I usually don't comment on vlogs. I've been a silent watcher/supporter. But this one spoke to me because I've experienced the same thing with my oldest/only daughter when she joined the Navy in Mar 2020. It was the most terrifying thing I've every experienced because this was my baby, my first-born. But I knew I had to support her no matter what. There will probably be many days where you just cry in private but keep talking and praying to God...that's what I had to do. Eventually as time passed, things got a lil more easier and bearable but there's always that feeling deep down you know? Us mothers are always in protective mode over our babies no matter the age. Now my daughter is at the point where she can take a leave, we talk and facetime, we've travel to visit her where she's stationed in VA. She has her own apartment and whatnot so things get a lil easier. But kudos to Jay for doing something for himself, it's an honorable thing to do. He will be just fine.

[@depetris37]

My son left in 2020 during the pandemic to attend the Naval Academy Preparatory School. He is now at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in his 3rd year and playing football for the Navy. I was so nervous and scared for my baby boy. I prayed and just asked GOD to protect him and keep from harm and danger. I can say that from just watching your channel, that your love and faith in GOD, you guys will be ok. Jay is going to be just fine. Take this as a sign of him being and making adult decisions. Once you see him after his training, I think, no, I know you guys will see that he is growing up and making his own way. You guys will be so proud, like we are with our baby boy. You take care and keep praying 🙏🏾 God got him ❤

I feel your pain about Jay sis. My sister passed away almost 2 years ago n I promised to take care of her son n make sure he graduated high school n did. He is and adult now n back in October he wanted to move out with his friend. Even though he lives 5mins away n works 8 mins away. I cried like a baby for 2 months n was depressed. I just know he is not ready for the world...he called me the other day because he was sick n wanted to know the name of his doctor n where it was..soon as hung up...I started crying again..I also think having him here was like having a part of my sister here. I'm just glad he didn't want to go back to Detroit. I pray for Jay's covering

[@pagingamber]

[@seleneanquenette]

Heyyyy Jah 👋🏾 Girllllll I know the feeling all to well..I have 4 children and 3 went to the military..At first I was upset with each one of them 🤣 but it got easy..I went into depression when each one left..but girl graduation day made it worth while.. You're going to be so proud of your sailor..Pray over him and give him to GOD..Because there are so many other things he could be doing..But he chose to serve and defend his country..What an honor..Be Blessed ❤ P.S. Go ahead..Get the family ready..Make your signs..Your matching shirts with his name and picture on it..Because graduation day is such a VIBE....

[@creh2330]

Whew. Ok. The title had me on edge. 😮‍💨 Now that I have calmed down, I just want to say that I will keep Jay and you all in my prayers. During this journey, I pray that the Lord continues to shield and protect him, and just give him the strength to handle whatever is placed before him. I’m not a parent, but with having military family members and loved ones, I understand the level (to a degree) of worry that may be going through your mind right now. Just continue to trust in God’s plan for you and your family’s lives. It’s not by mistake that Jay is starting this new journey, and he is going to grow in ways that not even he imagined. He’s going to be just fine. 😌🙏🏽

[@Phira_A]

Aww Javonne! Things will go well. You and Cleveland have raised some incredibly good children from what we get to see. He will do well. He’s a young man now going to find his way on his own. ❤❤

Greetings! Have you descaled your Keurig? You can purchase the solution from the Keurig store... Prayers for Jay.... Kudos to him for wanting to serve in the Navy and expand his horizons. We teach and mold our children to be responsible adults. Him wanting to get out on his own means that you and Cleveland have done a fantastic job of raising him... He is on his way of making his contribution to the world... Best wishes on his journey...

Thank you for sharing this devotional. Words cannot express how I really needed to hear this. I am currently battling with severe anxiety and this was very needed at this moment. I have been praying asking GOD to speak to my heart and I feel I now have conformation that he has heard my cry. I will take this and rest in His word. Thank you so much😢

Javonne, Thank You for sharing your vulnerability and being my confirmation from God. My youngest son has signed up for the Air Force and will be testing in a couple of months. I’ve been praying and crying, trusting God as He tells me he’s going to be alright. I’m like you, I want to shield my children from this world as well so it’s hard for me to let go😢. I needed to see this because God’s reassuring me that everything is going to be alright.🙏🏾

Wondering why she never mentions him.

You spend hundreds on bags, but, not a couple dollars extra for gel pedicure? We all have something we’ll pay money for, I can’t do expensive bags.

Hey Javonne, I'm standing in faith you with that all will be well. God takes care of His. Also I wanted to ask if you could show if it's not too invasive more of the vitamins, supplements etc that you've been taking and or considering or have stopped, for us women 40+ it is greatly appreciated. I don't always comment but sharing tears and emotions with you just builds a deeper bond with my Sister, thanks for sharing it touched me as I to have the same parenting values. I love you, continue in faith. All is well. 😘💜🙏🏼✝️

Anytime I feel anxious I just tell myself its not my battle it's the LORD'S. It always calms me when I say I trust you Lord. All the anxiousness suddenly leaves my body.Javonne Jay is doing what he needs to do to plan out the rest of his life. The experience he will have doing a few years in the service can set him up for life. Trust in yourselves that you and Cleveland have given him all the parenting he needed. Now he will take that knowledge and SOAR!
