Slow Down, Sis (you're not behind in life) | Trust God's Timing | Melody Alisa

[@MelodyAlisa]

hey, sis. let's chat: what is 1 thing you are grateful for in this current season? for me: it's simple for me, His presence. I've been thinking a lot about the reality/ truth that the God of the Universe knows me, loves me, cares for me, saved me. And not only is His presence is available to me but he WANTS to spend that time with me too. i'm just grateful, sis 🥲

[@myDivinePurpose4]

Learning Patience in this season❤️

I’m grateful that God has shown me that He is a provider.

I'm grateful for God reminding me that even when I don't feel Him, He's still here.

I'm grateful that God has provided my school fee right on time (thanking him in advance)

[@Wonder503]

I lost a lot this year, while others have gained and their lives changed for the better. I needed this. I pray that God leads me through this wilderness. I know that what I lost can’t compare to what I will gain through the LORD. Thank you, and God bless everyone.

[@MelodyAlisa]

praying for you, friend!! you said it perfectly-- what you are gaining in God is worth it all.

[@melliemel32]

Prayers for you!

I also didn't have an easy year, but I will continue trusting God

[@TheDevineFempress]

In all things give thanks …when waves pull away we don’t say “I lost water” it’s your thoughts it’s God timing trust and give thanks …. You never loose ANYTHING you receive valuable lessons …. I held on to my ex husband when I should have walked away ..he nearly beat me to death …I learned to let go - I didn’t loose my husband. I knew my mom was going to pass ….i gained an angel when she transitioned….when she came in my dreams …I learned that your loved ones can and do visit you in your sleep but they can only stay as long as you’re not aware in the dream that it’s actually THEM….the moment you get that it’s them …they MUST. Go …happens three times and all three when I realized “it’s not a dream” they exited swiftly or told me to scoot over let’s go to sleep… I met the love of my life --that begun to behave like a narcissist…God told me what to do …I didn’t listen …I learned to listen to Gods instructions and stand strong -you can NEVER help God bless you - that’s God blessing …not YOUR manipulation…when it was happening it was the most painful thing I had ever felt in my life …for a time I thought I was cursed …but the lessons I learned were ones that are pivotal to my accomplishing my life’s purpose…they HAD TO BE “impactful” so they are unforgettable…. Look for the lesson the more painful the situation ….the more necessary it is for you to have the lesson be a how to for your road forward… after all I have grown through-the “pain” was my holding on to things that were meant to teach me something….i know I hurt BUT the gift I received through it all was learning to look for the lesson …and the “pain” only lasts as long as you’re holding on to the thing that was meant to teach you. I hope this helps …because it’s a truth ….know that you only hurt or feel like you lost as long as you’re not looking for the lesson ….xoxo God bless

Im going to give you some more to really help heal your mental health! Fact is ''and an independent fundamental baptist pastor of 11 years speaking here who went to a baptist university to become a pastor & was in an IFB church all my life before that,'' fact is the bible is false as hell all the way through, fact. There are over 800 solid concrete contradictions ''yes solidly concretely fact,'' take for example & I'll name just 1 for brevity's sake, how god says he won't punish the children for the parents sins, but later turns around & says he will to the 3rd & 4th generations. It also gets endless scientific, astronomy, biological, etc, things wrong that we know for fact to be factually wrong. If god wrote the bible he's utterly dumb & hasn't an utter clue whats he's talking about at all. And if there is a god he's the most evil being in existence, a liar, the cause of all evil & loves it. Everyone would do themselves the biggest favor to watch The Lord Who Lies on AronRa channel. Watch channels like Darkmatter2525 & The Atheist Experience & break away from this truly worst of damaging in every way teaching called the bible & the utter bs & worst of damaging in every way bs & evil in it & this worst of damaging thing called christianity. Bart Ehrman is another excellent one to watch ''as the matter of fact there's also a good one on AronRa channel where Bart is interviewed by AronRa with the title Will you be left behind'' Bart has more degrees & licensing than just about anyone in everything concerning the bible ''there's only 2 other people that has as many as him on this planet.'' And Harmonic Atheist is another beyond great channel, endless ex theologians, pastors, Masters of Divinity, apologists, you name it showing how the bible is absolutely false to the core. What you are seeing here in this video is the damage it has caused this man, psychiatrists know for fact now it literally turns people into sociopaths & that churches are filled with them ''especially the pastors'' & that churches are breeding grounds for narcissists, sociopaths, & psychopaths. That is what you are seeing here with the anger in this man. If they were alone out in the middle of nowhere there would be a good chance the student with the hat & glasses would never be seen again. I highly suggest you watch the ones I've listed because it all for solid fact is false and that is indisputable & not even debatable at all, that's solid & concrete! And if you really wanna help people, help St. Judes/all those endless millions of very young little children dy*ng the most horrible painful agonizing de*ths that also completely in every destroy the parents in the process. Put your money where it counts, dont give it to these con men pastors who know they only have to show up about 3 hours a week just to read you a book you can read yourself so they can make massive bank and buy the newest nicest vehicles, have their nice home paid for, take luxury trips all the time, have and eat the best food in their house ''and eat out at the best places all the time too,'' buy boats, motorcycles, side by side atvs, jewelry, buy have and wear the nicest clothes and shoes, etc, etc. But if a hard working mother comes into the church to the pastor/pastors office and asks for 20 dollars worth of gas so she can make it back and forth for the week to continue to provide for her small children/continue to pay bills and feed them, put a roof over their head, cloth them, etc, because after paying bills she didnt have it, but she wont be given one red cent because it will take away from the pastors bank for all of that for themselves, they are sociopaths and psychopaths ''literally look that up, they really are just like the judges, prosecutors, all law enforcement, look all that up''! No dont ever give your money or anything to them ''not even your used cars because they sell them and take the money for themselves'' no put it where it will help the ones who really need it and where it will count and make a difference because I can guarantee you there isnt a pastor or most ''christians'' who give a sh*t! And damn sure dont pray and ask god for help financially because the almighty all powerful becomes immediately hopelessly handicapped if you do and I can assure you it wont happen. It would be like standing in front of a stop sign on the street corner asking it for help every day for years, it absolutely wont happen!

In this season I’m grateful to God for giving my own little family. This year I got married and gained a bonus son. And even though I so desperately want my own child one day, I have a wonderful husband. I remember being sad and depressed around the holidays when I was single I was never in the spirit. But I’m so grateful that now I’m no longer in that place and God had his hand on me and I have faith that God knows the desires of my heart . He always comes through at his perfect timing!

I feel like I wasted my 20's and also I wasted a few months with this wolf in sheep's clothing, and felt like im going backwards in my walk with God. But recently, in God's timing, I ran across this event with my peer specialist, and at this certain location they are having people training included to become CNAs. It's one of my desires to become a nurse, and God is blessing me with this. If my brothers and sisters please please please pray that I pass all my training and tests because I have brain damage and short term memory loss. I noticed my memory is slightly improving, but please pray that I get healed from brain damage and pass all my cna tests. Thanks everyone. God bless!

[@donnaellis9721]

The revelation God gave you about the rapid growing weed can also be an analogy for counterfeits. That weed growing in your yard looked like a tree, a good thing - a God thing but it was a counterfeit. Often times when God gives us a promise, a counterfeit comes along, looking like the real thing, a God thing. It looks good, things are moving quickly (just like the weed) but something seems off. Just like you said, not all growth is from God, not all "good" things are from God. So it's good to seek God about whether a supposedly good thing is from Him or not.

Wow, so good! I graduated from college last year and have seen many friends spring forward into amazing opportunities. It's hard not having a full-time job, close knit community, and just feeling stuck overall. I was super bitter for a good chunk of this season before coming to grips with the reality that me complaining about the season I am in is hindering God from answering my prayers and blessing me. I'm keeping myself from partnering with the Lord in this season to do His will. How foolish! I encourage those feeling discouraged to reflect on Psalm 127, Romans 12:1-2, and James 3:17-18! The last two are really meant to help you live out your daily calling and to have clarity on what He is asking you to do.

[@ledwards3311]

[@chooga4eva]

For me, I’ve been waiting for marriage. I’m 35, and have been praying for a godly spouse since I was 28. I’ve celebrated many weddings and motherhoods for close friends, but God hasn’t given me my turn. Recently I felt like I’d come to the end of myself, but I’m still here. I have been living for God since I decided to dedicate my life to Him at age 23. The wait has been long and I can’t help but feel disappointed with God for giving me this significant portion of life spent alone and in loneliness. But I can do nothing but to continue trusting in Him, in the complete darkness of the future.

I'm always feeling like I'm behind so I'm always trying to create, create, create and move on different things which keeps me stagnant cuz I overwhelm myself not knowing where to start but ignoring where GOD is telling to not only start but keeping being.. Matthew 6:33. I'm grateful in this season that GOD sends constant reminders to slow me down, to rest in HIM and just lean in more, trust and learn in this season because HE is preparing me. I literally was talking to GOD like LORD idk what's going on. What am I supposed to be doing and then this video came back to my remembrance for me to look at it.

This word is definitely meant for me. In fact, it was my prayer point last time. I feel like God always puts obstacles in my path. I am currently employed for 9 years in the same position, no promotion. My applications, whether in the company I work for or other organizations, don't even make it pass the selection stage. After 9 years, I finally secured an interview at my company, did so well, I thought, but still did not get the position. I was depressed I wouldn't lie, but God is good. I am in a good space now emotionally. I am thankful that God has not given up on me even in my darkest hour. Even when I fought with Him and decided that our relationship was over, he always came back to me, and we ended up making peace 😂. I now believe that His time is the best. I can't set terms and conditions for Him. Amen

Late last year, things were coming left and right at me, almost as if I keep getting targeted. I lost of lot of people in my life that I’d known what felt like forever but I made some unintentional mistakes and it led to me losing them. I had experienced something like that before and thought that I’d healed from it but never knew it would come full circle which showed that I didn’t really heal from it, my definition of healing and the Lord’s definition of healing are completely different. I knew that from then until now, I just needed to seek God’s face and get back to that place of vulnerability. Realize that I’m worthy of love, HIS LOVE and am human and will make mistakes but trust that He is with me and is working on my heart. I’m currently grateful to God for His patience. As I stubborn person, I’ve learned that I can’t do everything by myself and that life is definitely not how you plan it, but I truly am grateful to God for Him being patient with me and helping me to let go of “being in control” and just hold His hand and let Him guide me to my expected end ❤

I’ve been looking out of state for work and I haven’t heard a whisper from a potential employer in months.

This message was so good. God, thank you. I’m in an accelerated season of failure and struggle. But I also feel like it’s equally a blessing because I have no one else to turn to but God. I have finally realized that I’ve NEVER been an independent woman. I will always and forever be a dependent of our Heavenly Father. Lord, I pray for everyone tuning into this message to follow your guidance, feel your love and spread your kindness and grace to all That we come in contact with. Most importantly, I pray we all put you first and depend on you for everything we do.

[@shaylag15]

I'm grateful for his grace in this season. I wasted so much of my 20s and my early 30s on things and people who trees didn't bare any fruit. Which has had me stuck in a place of not receiving God’s promises but I'm so grateful he's allowing me to keep walking with him in this season. So locked in now.

[@ngombamarie.m]

Just one minute in and whew🔥 1:19 ‘not all growth that we see is from God and not all acceleration is a good thing’

[@MK22-t7o]

Something I am grateful for in the preparation season I am in is being able to spend quality time with God more frequently and doing this has allowed me to be downloaded with so much more wisdom than I have ever had before

[@Indueseason7]

I've been feeling like God forgotten about me, this was needed.

[@shemireyahlilly5521]

I feel the same way

[@OurGodIsAnAwesomeGod-t1r]

I never forget about you baby, never! Keep wearing those hot soft silky sheer sexy white thigh high stockings, with those hot soft silky sheer, warm moist wet sweaty, hot and sexy smelling, hot and sexy stockinged toes and feet!

[@yoursassyrealtor]

This current season I’m in has been littered with change. I became a new empty nester, relocated to a new city and state where I didn’t know anyone, got a promotion and sold my home all within 5 months! It’s been a whirlwind and an adventure with God. This season also has me being more intentional with my relationship with Christ and my time overall.

[@InstantlyGlam]

I’m greatful that in this season God showed me that he was always going to take care of me.

[@ki6475]

I’ve actually received same revelation through a hospital game I was watching someone play yesterday and they said “ it’s not good for us to grow too quickly because our reputation will only bring in people we are not yet ready for, so let’s not rush to grow but instead train up our doctors and nurses to be prepared for the people that will come because of the higher reputation” and with your message I also noticed how in this game they were doing good work (working in a hospital) so it’s not that they were not doing good work they were just building slowly so they’re work can last and things work out accordingly instead of drowning in debt or killing of patients because they didn’t have enough staff trained to work with certain illness…. So I say this to say that the work I’m doing is probably good and God just wants me to build slowly so that it stands in whatever seasons it will go through and not bring harm but rather be effective and ofc bring his glory. I often thought that since I was growing “slowly” compared to others it wasn’t where I was supposed to be but it is and God just needs us to build carefully so that it’s not bringing harm but good not just for me but others too. I will remain patient so that I can stand in the seasons to come.

[@paigem.3714]

I’m grateful to God that’s he’s not giving me things that my character is not yet ready for! It hurts to be this season of waiting / preparing but I know it’s his will over mine

[@Mira-ut7vi]

2024 has been unexpectedly the most hardest year in my life. I lost my appa this year. But I know I didn't lose him, but he is heaven and would be with me forever as my guardian angel. But I lost some other people I thought would be with me forever. Even though when I about to give up on my life, Jesus didn't give up on me. So here I am! A survivor and waiting to witness the light my lord is gonna show me on 2025. His mercy is endless.. And my hope is in my lord ❤

[@Pretty_Sphe]

For me: the gift of life. I sometimes wondered has God left me, turned his back away from me?. But when the time is right, God will make a way.

[@danie9219]

I am grateful for Gods faithfulness. This year came with a lot of change, it was exciting and scary. Throughout the changes in 2024 I grieved and rejoiced. My job, lifestyle, friend group and romantic relationship changed. Most of all my faith and trust in God has grown. I am grateful that he considers me and that his love endures forever ❤

[@serenehanson-bartholomew1081]

I’m grateful for the small pockets of joy that I am experiencing again after such a hard past 3 years

[@Sunshine4]

I like that “small pockets of joy” this is a great way to deal with life.

[@Tabatha-si8ks]

I am grateful that even through my feeling of being stuck, I still desire to be with my God because I know that he has all the answers and at any second He can change my situation. #nothingisimpossibleforHim.

[@Assuredprimeservices]

One thing I am grateful to God For in this season, is having health, and the family/ support system around me.

[@HannahAlexandra_]

the right person DEF came across this video... thank you!!

[@shirleneedwards5493]

I'm in this season you've spoken about and chileee it ain't easy! You get to thinking that something is wrong with you and as if you're lowkey cursed 😅 but I've been attacking that mindset through prayer and meditation. That's one thing I've been learning in this season...that meditation brings transformation, it's like a transfiguration of the mind. I've been learning to read the word and speak the word over and into my life as if I was prescribed medication by a doctor. God's word is medication for the anxious mind and heart. I know God's will will be done for my life but it's just like the enemy to tell you lies when you open the door to comparison. My faith has been stretched and I can say I am growing deeper roots in my relationship with Christ as a result of this season.

[@saniyasworldoffaith5318]

Omg heavy on the you think you’re cursed, I’m looking I know this can’t be it . I’m only 20 and I genuinely thought it was going to be a movie. I’ve endured a lot of trials and tribulations. I felt stuck because I couldn’t see what God was doing but his promises will prevail 🩷

[@ArianaMonroe]

I’m grateful for growth. I feel like I’m in this season of caring for family. I’ve been here for a while but this is more of an intimate, meaning having to be someone’s complete help. I’ve never experienced it this way before and whewwwww it’s been tough ! Like I was almost making my own plans to “run” in a sense and take myself out of this scenario because it was something I didn’t ask for . But I’ve been sticking it through and God has been showing me things throughout this experience. I am grateful that he WANTS to have me experience these things to help me grow and really rely on him and my community of fellow believers . I’ve had to go to him and ask for forgiveness a few times, there have been many tears but for good reason . I’m grateful that he chooses me 😭

[@Destheesquire]

This was definitely for me. I'm in one of those rough seasons, wishing things could be different but I'm learning to slow down and thank God for where I am today. I'm grateful that He blessed me with a supportive husband and savings so I do not have to jump directly to a new job after losing mine last month. Instead I have the opportunity to rest and listen for God's voice.

[@lenmariepascall9750]

I’m grateful for God providing and keeping me through uncertainty and being far away from family and friends.

[@awsmith071]

I am grateful that God has spoken to me to remind me to slow down. I am unemployed and having a hard time finding a job. God took care of me before, and I know He will do it again.

[@theanswerkey8652]

This is most definitely for me! God has me working on a program. I’ve been feeling so antsy about it taking too long and wanting to see the fruits now. This was just a reminder to stay faithful and finish the project out.

[@amandaulysse1128]

I'm glad you made this video. I have been currently feeling lost and felt behind because of former classmates that have gotten to travel and leave home on their own. These helped remember that I'm in a different path from them and it's not my time. It's God's timing.

[@allisonemig8578]

I was that person! This message came exactly at the moment I needed to hear it! Truly amazing!! Thank you for this & God bless you! 😊🕊️🙌💖

[@r.a5765]

Thanks Melody, this came at the right time for me. I'm watching a lot of people in my life right now (all unbelievers) getting married and I've been single for 8 years now and it's very tough. But you're right - God's will is to protect us from evil and not to deny us good pleasures. So I am focusing on being content with His will in my life right now. As for what I am grateful for, it's the fact that God is really teaching me how to hear His voice and I can't tell you how much I appreciate this. My desire is to walk with Him and He has put me in a season of rest where I really have to ensure I am moving according to His will and instruction rather than my own fleshly desires. I am also grateful for my health and the fact that I can move, jump, dance and sing. Praise be to the Lord our God and thanks again Melody ♥♥♥

[@CAI.DREAMS]

This season has been so hard for me and I’ve cried so much. But I’m really grateful that this season has helped me get closer to God. I’ve always struggled seeing God as Father and he has just helped me see Him in that way and it’s transforming my heart in so many ways ❤ Congratulations on your podcast!! 🥳 I love your ministry, thank you for your obedience and yielding to the Lord.

[@nundame]

your video spoke to me. I had changed my job and my salary had raised 2 times a year. Suddenly, last 2 months I become a jobless person. Now I'm looking for a job and I'm in depressed. I listen to God's videos everyday. I want to have faith in God's timing in every minutes. Please pray for me

[@itsdeborahcolon]

That's a word, sis! Not all growth or accelaration is from God. Phew 🔥

[@derkiathomas7748]

This was for me 😭 so loud but so right! I am so grateful for the season of long-term unemployment that God has placed me in because He’s given me the space and time to dive deeper into his word, but also use my gifts for his glory (and that’s something I’ve been putting off for a while)

[@rachelpalmer5496]

This is for me. I keep seeing everywhere that Gods timing is right on time. This is the same narrative I’ve been hearing and seeing everywhere

[@shaniyadunchie]

I am greatful to God for communicating with me ❤

[@keyanalatricee]

This was definitely for me. I was getting discouraged and growing weary but God knows what I need, WHEN I need it. I’m just grateful for his wisdom and grace that he gives me. I truly love him.

[@Divergentglow]

I needed to hear this. Recently, I started a business that I love and I feel stuck to the point where there is no sale, and I'm waiting on God, I have questions... but I have faith. I know there is something he is proning me from, and in his own time, he will give me my portion of the market. Have your way, God.

[@nikkinikki874]

Wow! This was for ME. I’ve been struggling with this for a while now. I’m in God’s will right now, but I’m not in my will. Thank you for the reminder. Seeing others accelerate when you feel stuck can be tough, but His timing is perfect even if it feel’s late to me. I’m not a failure just because I’m not where I want to be yet. Literally saw this video right after I got home from lunch with a friend where she said she’s pregnant. And I was happy for her but also thinking when is my turn coming. So much good truth in this video. My heart needed it. ❤️

[@ChelsSi_mon]

One thing I am grateful for this season, is for God’s presence. Lately he’s been showing up in unexpected ways. I love that he’s the God who sees and hears me.

[@keyanagreen2135]

In this season I am grateful that God has blessed me with a new job! Its better pay and better hours than my last job, and its in a career field that I've had interest in when I was a little girl. In this season I have been praying more, studying more, and listening to more sermons during my free time at work. I am looking forward to the next season of my life and all that God has in store for me!

[@CateraRuth]

This video was definitely for me🥹😮‍💨 I recently just turned 25 and was reflecting on all the things I can remember I said I wanted at this age at like 21. I’m here now and feel like all that has happened is loss and setback. 4 months into this age and I have really been trying to shift my mindset. I got re-baptized in August and still picking up my cross daily and dying to my flesh. Becoming more anchored in God and his word has been a true blessing and exactly what I’ve needed. Remaining hopeful and faithful that all I need and desire(prayerful that it is God’s desires for my life) will come back tenfold to me! Financially, emotionally, spiritually, in love, etc

[@NicoleAcevedo-x7z]

I’m really grateful for my family. Sometimes I oversee what god has really done for me. Keeping them healthy and full of love.

[@nessababii1011]

Thank you so so so much for this word! Very very timely ♥️ I am very grateful for having more time in this season to spend time with God and myself. I have often been on go go go with work and school, but currently not having those things has forced me to enjoy resting for once and working on myself to be the woman God has called me to be. There are days when I wish a job opportunity would come right now, but it’s been nice just really figuring out how to be a good me to me. I’m also grateful that God hears me and answers my prayers ♥️

[@Raquelcunhass]

I literally was in tears, after prayed to God with so much pain in my heart. I decided to search for any preach on KZbin then I found you. This vídeo gave me peace! Thank you for let God using you throught this word. Your content arrived here in Brazil!🇧🇷

[@makebajameson2467]

I am grateful for the God's pruning. Getting rid of all the traits that don't belong in my tomorrow.

[@Francina_Moleko]

“Be still before the Lord & wait patiently for HIM; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger & turn from wrath; do not fret - it leads only to evil.” -Psalm 37:7-8

[@loureane1552]

I am really grateful for the slow pace of my current season.

[@CameronRichards98]

I am grateful for my relationship growth with him and him showing me that my waiting season has actually been transformative for me as a person. Also, I am grateful for my job and the knowledge I have retained that will help me in the future.

[@BriandriaDavidson]

I am grateful for God’s faithfulness. 2.5 years ago life blew up in my face and I knew I had to make changes. God led me to a new space to work and He gave me the community that I need for the season my life is in right now. I am surrounded by believers that pray, encourage and genuinely love one another like Jesus. It is so refreshing and in this difficult season, exactly what my daughter and I need. I am so grateful that He loves us so much.

[@monicahilliard3620]

I'm grateful for God covering me while in nursing school and teaching me that I'm enough so slow down❤❤

[@Belle-23]

I am grateful that I've walked this waiting journey with God even though it has been hard.

[@ManiOriginals]

Ohhhh I definitely needed this Word today. I’m so excited for the future/worries about the future/anxious about the future so definitely “waking up early in vain” was a direct sign to me. I’m grateful that The Holy Spirit would convict me even against my “wants” because He knows what’s best. My takeaway this week, especially being thanksgiving is to be grateful. Be grateful for everything in my life, even for the things “not going my way”. I can be such a toddler so praise God for humbling me and opening my eyes through this message. Thank you Lord

[@alisaprospero4738]

WOW! So this was definately for me. It speaks to me so loudly. One of the things I am grateful for in this season is God's patience with me. I'm guilty of looking at the lives of others, specifically my age & thinking that I am not where I should be in life. Because of that I have not truly appreciated where He has me now, what I do have, & knowing that things could be so much worse for me. Realizing that my perspective has been wrong & that I Am so blessed. I may not have what I think I want or be where I'd prefer to be, but I do know that God has so much in store for me, I need only to be patient. To Enjoy this time & all the 🎶Million little Miracles🎶 that He allows me to have every day that I wake up & every night that I make it back to my bed. I needed to hear this lesson so thank you for putting it out & sharing it. Blessing to you😇

[@ShanellCameisha]

He spoke to me through a commercial 🥺 I’m grateful for him increasing my faith and trust in him! Thanks Mel ❤

[@DaphenieC.]

I'm grateful for God's mercy when I continue to mess up over and over God has mercy on me. Showing me his love.

[@kgothatsomosweu7358]

Sis, like i said in one of your videos that you have been talking specifically to me. i thank the Lord for you.

[@kaneshiab8275]

This message has encouraged me. As the year comes to an end, I felt overwhelmed with disappointment with how certain things are in my life. In this season of uncertainty, I am thankful for God's grace. I am being patient and being still while God guides me through this season. This word reminded me that delayed doesn't mean denied. Amen.

[@jolenegrant2645]

This message is for me also, I am grateful for the pruning and the discipline God has been instilling in me. Its like He’s just holding my hand like the good Father He is. It hurts sometimes but its so worth it, His presence ❤

[@tieshaarmster526]

Look at our Father’s daughter teaching in parables! Thank you for sharing, Sis. Comparison is something I struggle with…real bad. In this season, I’m thankful that God is kind and loving enough to show the hidden things in my heart, and gracing me through growing pains.
