How will you respond to the problem?

[@melaniemartin730]

I won't answer that. But what do we mean by the sermon title of now what?!🤷🤷🤷

[@tiffe4772]

Quit thinking about it, quit talking about it, continue to stand. Wait on the Lord. The Battle belongs to him. This was on point with everything that I'm going through. ❤ God has told me so many of these things on my journey as well in fact he also had spoken directly to me as well about what you said about God choosing us as parents for our children because we have what they need and it's something that's going through my mind as I've been raising them this whole time and it's good to hear the word of the Lord and to hear that the same God that speaks to me over here on the West Coast is the same God speaking the same things to you over where you are. I also really needed to hear that what I do does matter.

[@vayolasheetekela9515]

I will ask to the lord and he will guide me through it ,as he has said he has plans for me ,plans to prosper and not harm ,plans to give me hope and a future..

[@peacenakimbugwe6871]

Accept the push. Find a person. Respond to the pull. Get in the presence of God. That's how I respond ❤

[@Hillsong_Worship_Greatest98]

May the unemployed find work, may the sick be healed, and may whoever is reading this be blessed in the name of JESUS

[@Beautiful_1986]

Thank you for your prayer, I am really need of employment. You are a blessing.

[@ChildofGod98765]

Thank you God for giving me strength because being a single mother is hard on me. It is only because of God I continue to be able to provide for my children. Both of my sons are special needs. I’m constantly struggling to provide for them and now that I’m home schooling them my hours to work are limited. I’m overwhelmed. Father God give me courage as I struggle to buy groceries, and as I struggle to pay rent. Lord hear my prayers.❤️

[@torigarcia8340]

Praying for you & your sons 🙏🏼 ❤

[@leratomusi4595]

Where's the dad? You should ask for help because clearly you can't do it alone. If you have a supportive family ASK FOR HELP and take some time for yourself or you will collapse and never wake up and how good will you be to your kids then?

[@CountryGospel24]

If you see this comment......May God bless you and your entire family🙏🏻God Bless you

[@emmanueldotisholahyphensalawu]

"One of the hardest things to hear from God is 'wait.'" I feel that.

[@melaniemartin730]

Why's that tough to wait on the lord? Help!↘️↘️🌇🌇

Amen ❤ 19:25

[@joehughes1871]

For me, W.A.I.T. stands for (I am) Willing, (I am) Available, (I am) Impatient (...I'm only human! But I am) Trusting.

[@melissaleonard1168]

The only thing harder than waiting on God is wishing you had❤

[@lmarie931]

Pastor Holly preaches in such a simple, but profound way. As she said, miracles often are hidden in the mundane. God speaks so powerfully through her.

[@andreajones886]

God ALLOWS circumstances to happen in MY LIFE,in order to get me to MOVE!💯

[@melaniemartin730]

Screenshot those texts and put them in a folder for the ghosting stage when "we don't read texts or listen to messages" and you wonder are they alive?? Then the holy days of obligations days the text "what are you planning for mother's day?? " Had a really good day today because I planned it complete with Raffi singing in the car we are going to the zoo zoo zoo! My adult sons loved the zoo today! We can decide to live the hero's journey with prayers singing on the way to the zoo or get stuck in the lion's cage!! Came back home and needed a mother's hug to confront the dragons in the forest! Thank you for lifting me up !!!

[@noordinarygreat]

Good Morning Elevation (too early or late considering I've not gone to sleep yet), Happy Mothers Day from Gods Scared Oak. I think my sister can relate being a mother lol. Thank you for sharing that called The Choice by Dr Edith Eger and Thank you Edith Eger. I love the story called Unbroken which is the most powerful book of survival I've ever read about the Olympic runner Louie Zamperini (way better than the film) so no doubt I'll love this. It's all about how you deal with adversity. I told someone that at church today (well yesterday technically) who told me I have probably been through way much than her. I told them I don't like comparing (although I have been guilty of it in the past when I've been annoyed) in the brackets is something I wish I'd said. Thank you for that demonstration on the screen (clapping my hands). I think I may know someone called Peter. First experience of a church I returned to after 30 odd years, up on stage a bit nervous being up there in front of people, but a warm welcoming and something that I said I should know I could do as I read from scripts in the same packed out church back on the day. 'if you give the treasurer £3, he will give you £1 in return... tight arse ;) - All Saints. I have those moments that God is against me too but like a telekinetic bending a spoon with there mind, I bend right back. Location - God's Sacred Oak: Please pray for my eldest niece Chloe and her 2 little girls, as well as my whole family. Thank you God. Thank you Angels. Thank you Spirit. Thank you Elevation. Goodnight. God Bless.

[@noordinarygreat]

Let me guess. £1 is better than nothing lol.

[@jessicanorris2856]

I love you Holly thank you
