Bella’s advice reminded me of something I heard once that said “sometimes the only closure you need is that God has better!” 🙌🏼

[@rachelortiz1157]

This comment! 😭👏🏻👏🏻💜✨

[@makaila5391]

I LOVE THIS!

[@kevinklein9565]

I disagree. Because maybe it’s just that you two weren’t compatible. Godly people date and break up all the time and saying there is someone better than a person who is also pursuing and glorying God is arrogant to think the next person is better.

[@kevinklein9565]

You jut waiting or the right person for you. Not always someone better. Maybe if you dated a terrible person…

[@ellef4812]

Wow!!! Bella is DEEP!!! She needs to do the audible version to this book. Her voice is so soothing and the way she reads it, you can FEEL it!

[@joellejohnson3996]

YES

[@jeneskedekock6517]

AMAZING Podcast!!! That cliche quote: "you'll find them when you're not looking for them." It made me think of the scripture "First seek the kingdom of God and then all things shall be added unto you." Cause I feel like if you focus on Jesus He will show you the right path.

Dear Bella and Sadie. It has been 4 months since coming out of a serious 2 year relationship. I am so heartbroken and have been feeling the weight of hopelessness because of how painful the entire the experience was. God really used this episode to start my healing process. If you come across this, please pray my new greenhouse, but more importantly, please pray for journey of becoming whole first. ♡ ❤

[@TheFitChemist]

Feel like this was geared more towards women but having gone through a break up recently, I can definitely relate to all that was discussed. I really like the quote “it’s not fair that someone doesn’t get all of me because you want none of me”. So powerful & it’s definitely true that closure has to come from YOU. Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

[@sydneyvaden1175]

amen!! so true, i’ve been going through a breakup phase too and each day is hard but it does get better!! good luck, and prayers being sent your way! i love you brother he loves you MORE

[@johandejager8096]

I'm a dude and I can totally relate. Thank you Bella!

[@kaylalee7861]

Amen. Back in college I went through so many breakups and that quote definitely related to how I felt. Getting hooked on someone is so hard and not being able to give myself emotionally to others. It was only once I turned myself over to God that I was able to start opening up to others in a better way

"Why is it fair that no one got all of me, because you wanted none of me". That hit deep!

After just getting out of a toxic relationship, this was SO reassuring that I made the right decision in getting out of it and giving me hope for the future and a relationship centered on God.

[@rachelmartinez5057]

When she read that line in the beginning and looked up at you and smiled, there was a safety and proud moment she held in knowing you are proud of her and are cheering her on. A precious sibling relationship makes me cry and I hope my children carry this with eachother 🫶🏼

[@nelodypond9282]

Yes! When a guy tells you he doesn’t want to hurt you-then he literally has plans to hurt you!!! He’s admitting to not having good intentions for you or just not being interested in you. LISTEN and walk away.

[@colleengetz1608]

yessss listen :)

[@aGirLnTX]

This podcast touched me on SO many levels. It's almost like you wrote the relationship I'm in right now. The only thing I don't know is how to get out of it. It's the cycle you were talking about... I'm ready to end it, and then something good happens, and I think it's going to change and be okay. I've prayed about it. I've talked to God. I've prayed for him. And I love him so much. I can't imagine my life without him, but I do think I deserve more. I just want him to be the man I know he can be. The man that God wants him to be. Thank you for writing and reading your book, and sharing the Good News with so many people. God bless you both!

[@ItsEvelynIris]

I audibly said "Whoa" while watching this. You both spoke very specifically to experiences I have been through in relationships and I am in shock. It's so sweet to hear ya'll talk about how you dealt with heartbreak and recovery, and I am so encouraged. Thank you for this, the Lord is using you in amazing ways.

[@lorihaynes71]

Absolutely! Me to.... And I'm 50! I wish I'd been that wise and knowledgeable at their age!!! I could've skipped a lot of hurt. Hindsight... But God!!!!!

I really don't do poetry but I'm healing from a relationship that nearly took my life. I felt those words deep in my heart. I'm so getting that book

[@kaitlynw5716]

i would love to hear more about bella’s current relationship with her husband plus more relationship advice !!

[@brandyparker3987]

Very proud of these young ladies for their discernment and wisdom, and setting a great example for other young women. Too often, especially here in Louisiana, the younger generation of women doesn’t stop to think about the long-term consequences of the “dating rampages” (and young men too!). I can also appreciate, as a more mature woman, the candid discussion Sadie and Bella are having, having experienced these same emotions after going through an unwanted divorce after almost two decades of marriage. Keep up the great work you are doing for the Lord!! And thank you!!

[@syd.debruler.1509]

bella and sadie are such role models to me, especially of how much they love God!

[@nikkiisrael2708]

Sadie, I hope you don’t mind me leaving a message for your sister, Bella. Dear Bella: you are just as your name means - beautiful. I was deeply touched by your poetry, and the Holy Spirit has already used it to bring me some comfort and healing from my own broken heart. I believe your poetry will reach many! Not just the young, but also those of us who are more mature, at 52 :-) and yet young at heart too. I can’t give you details on my current situation, because it would be too public at this point.

DANG!!! 😭😭❤️ I love y’all so so much. Thank you, Bella for your beautiful words and such a profound perspective on so many feelings I’ve felt as well. At the part about “hurt at the hands of a man”, that gave me chills because I’ve been healing from abuse and this is so where I’m at. I’ve been there myself where I needed a wake up call that this book would have given. I pray this helps so many young women and saves them from wasting those precious days & years. This is straight Kingdom work in a powerful way! 🙌❤️

Oh my word girls, this was amazing! I've been through all of this in my life and I'm at the stage of where I'm extremely happy in my singleness and I'm not seeking out that relationship anymore because I don't trust myself but I trust God to provide that in his own timing

[@bradleybruening1569]

This is really good so far it’s very refreshing to listen to something positive. And listing to your advice I kinda needed to hear this, my relationship has been up and down for the last 6 years. My fiancé and I, her and I have been together since college and we still aren’t married we have been engaged almost 3 years now and we have a child together, and her and I are two different people and come from two different spectrums of the world, I used to go to church and fell from that and I miss church a lot. And I feel like I lost so many friends and it sucks, thank you for all the good advice Sadie.

[@jaydahstone9913]

This makes me feel better that i’m not alone.. that I am not the only one that has gone through it!!!

This was so powerful, I’ve been in so many bad relationships and I feel like I’ve lost a sense of myself through all the pain I’ve been through. Although I’m not a girl and can completely relate to everything said, I can attest to Jesus being the person who stitched me back together and is holding me in His hands. Thank you so much for sharing this, it helped me to process a lot of emotions I didn’t know I still had about my past.

[@kallie1387]

This gave me such a good and refreshing perspective of how I have been treated in the past... how wrong it was and how I do deserve to be loved & cherished. thank you both so much for this. & Bella, it is so obvious how much God has blessed you with this writing gift and I know He will use it more and more as you continue to seek Him.

[@kaylalee7861]

I agree. For a long time I felt like I deserved the treatment I had received in previous relationships. I am so thankful that those ended so I could gradually start to see that I deserved better. Each relationship before meeting my husband I had less and less patience for bad treatment. By the time I met my husband, God had prepared my heart to be open to a love meant for me and I’m SO thankful that all the previous hurt lead me here.

[@gracearellano91]

Sister! How awesome 🤩 I do not read poetry books either but I will find this book! Blessings. 🙏

I really needed to see this! I too am 18 years old and recently married so seeing Bella getting married at 18 and being so close with the Lord also brings me some comfort I didn’t know I needed! It’s so uncommon nowadays to get married this young & follow Christ at a deep level. Praise God for this beautiful, relatable woman🤍

Why do people get married so young cuz people change as they grow up I'm 51 I went thru a loss 33 met 32 but he was everything Is important too grow up first and miss my fiance he worked much he had Jesus but maybe psychical thing they can't wait so they get married you can rush growing up barely high school I knew older person got married and she tried I oh try talked cuz felt not happy I guess maybe stuck at times and younger but was not right I got upset and let her go oh shouldnt want find the right person just she's not happy she wasn't rite for me I'm 51 but was few yrs ago at 49 there's certain you know you grow know not rite for at all try bring me down not encourage or build me up wrong and not rite at all.....

[@Arirosefishing]

I don’t know where you got that from but there are plenty of people who got married young that stayed together happily for many years. I don’t think I’m the maturest person in the world but I’ve been through a lot of tough crap starting from a young age so I did have to grow up a bit. Not every teenager that gets married are doing it out of “ infatuation “. We dated for years prior, went through a lot of toughness together, and are still pushing strong. We’ve got God in our marriage and stand on His firm foundation and are blessed to have been able to marry young and start a life together.
