Transparency is better. You can't heal if you're running from or trying to hide your problems. I will be praying for you that God will give you strength and continued courage, healing and comfort. Lean into Jesus and stay strong in the Word. Yes, the attacks from the darkness always come when you're down. Much love from an old lady in Texas.
You two pulled me out of my depression after i went thru...finding my fiancee on floor who died from massive heart attack and then two months later lost my friend Chrissy and mike my best friend on the very same day...then lost everything in a Apt fire...i love you both!!! Yall are loving caring supportive and always puts a smile on my face❤ now WE ALL WILL BE HERE FOR YOU BOTH!! ITS OK TO GRIEVE ITS OK TO TAKE A TIME OUT!! YOUR SQUAD WILL ALWAYS BE HERE!!!❤ PRAYERS 🙏
Grief counseling with a group at your church or somewhere can help. Sharing with others who are going through grief really helps. Prayers, love and hugs to y’all. When my brother took his own life grief counseling group at our church was a Godsend for us.❤️💔🙏
Blessings to you both for your transparency and honesty, very powerful testimony. Praying that you will go through the grieving process and God will strengthen you and show Himself strong in your family. If God is for us, it doesn’t matter who is against us.🙏
I'm going to be 72 in a few days. I have cancer and I will never give up. I plan to be here for my 73rd birthday. God will see you through this. Keep the faith. Where two or more are gathered. God will give you protection.
And I'm depressed because I lost my family young and I need surgery on all limbs. And here you have cancer and you're probably stronger than me. Life is so tough. I hope Trump can make things better😢
Everyone grieves differently. I lost my husband and during that week of having to make funeral arrangements, my youngest son got thrown in jail. I absolutely did not feel I could deal with it all. I made up my mind that I could not deal with it after the funeral and I had gotten my son out of jail so I decided that I was going to go home and take my life as I was through suffering. When I got home to take care of this, my twin sister and her husband were at my house and my brother n law told me that the Lord had told him to be at my house and get me and take me home with them. It’s been 13 years now and I am still with them. The Lord is such a loving, merciful God and I have learned that grief is so horrible but it is apart of life and even though I still grieve for my husband I have learned to give it and put it in God’s hands and move on. You can too. Rely on God and don’t give the devil any credit by letting him trying to destroy you and your family. Tell him out loud to get thee hence behind you as God is who you stand for and that leaves no room for him. He has to leave you alone when you tell him in the name of Jesus he has to leave! You two are so precious to us on line and just think how much more precious you are to our Lord and Savior! God bless you both and this can all be worked out! I am standing and believing it! ❤
this is true, I have told people,. after loosing all my family and some friends, we are born with a grief clock, and no ones is the same. even in families and things that remind you of someone may make you cry and the other person laugh
The devil knows how late the hour is and now he's pulling out all the stops against those who belong to Christ. This should and will make us stronger. We need ceaseless prayer as the world grows darker. Love you guys
You guys know I lost my older sister a few years ago. She was the last of my family members. We all grieve in different ways, but I felt some joy mixed in with the grief. Joy that she's where she is and not in pain or suffering. WE are the ones left behind. Sometimes even our spouses or loved ones can't help us. We have to help ourselves and allow ourselves to get thru the pain and loss. Our departed loved ones would NOT want us to suffer so much. They send constant love and messages if we are open enough to hear/see them. When I think of my sister, I start seeing butterflies. Hugs and love to Mel as well, because she doesn't want to see you suffer. She wants you to laugh and feel joy again. Let God heal your heart and accept the joy. We're always here whenever you want to share....come on live for discussions as well. You'll have so many of us who can totally relate. Love you guys and the "squad"!!!!
Grieving is extremely difficult. My mom and dad are both gone. My dad went suddenly in a car accident at 54 and my brother died in his bed at 59. Life is HARD! I always remember the words of Corrie Ten Boom who lost her whole family in the concentration camps during WW11; "THERE IS NO PIT SO DEEP THAT_HE_ IS NOT DEEPER STILL". Lean on HIM and he will hold you through all heartbreak and fear. The enemy will not prosper when confronted with the love of God.
One of the reasons I started watching your channel was because of the love you so openly showed each other. Hang on to that love. Fight for that love! Hugs and brightest blessings to you both.
@@shannaroyal6882 Yes but the key is.... FAITH... NOT to keep praying and praying for the same thing. Pray... Have faith... BELIEVE MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE INSTEAD OF ACTING DEFEATED. Ya'll ask... now have faith and stop asking for it over and over again. Trust and believe your words were heard and watch and give thanks in every little thing as your prayers are answered in God's time.
Prayer is essential! ❤ I've fought grief, depression, difficulty maintaining faith, and losing regard for my own wellness. I'm on my way back up, with prayer, the love of family and friends, and uplifting influences like you and Mel whose warmth and sincerity reach right through the screen to uplift us. ❤️ Thank-you Shawn and Mel.

Thank you guys so much for sharing and being transparent. You are not depressed, the devil is trying to keep you oppressed. Take time to grieve your losses and please know that GOD will see you through. Please develop your personal relationship with our LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS THE CHRIST. GOD has got your back.❤❤❤❤❤

Howzit Guys, from South Africa with love ❤️ If you two can get through and this, you can get through anything! Thank you for sharing your pain. Many dont talk about it, and it's testimony to the connection you have with each other. Let's replace the word DARKNESS with YOUR CROSS TO BEAR. No matter what life throws at you, you will rise✝️
"No weapon that is formed against me and gods chosen shall prosper" AMEN 🙏 you are in my prayers guys, many love and blessings sent your way from LONDON UK 💖
Grief is an ongoing fight. I've suffered many losses including two wives, one to cancer and one to suicide. I think the best thing I did for myself was to attend what was called a Griefshare class at my church. It's a Christian based 13 week class on grief. I've done it 3 times so far. One key takeaway for me was the realization that when someone we love dies, we lost them in each role they played in our life. A lover, a counselor, a friend ... they can be all these and we lose each one of those key roles when that particular person passes. I strongly encourage you to seek out a similar program. I often felt like I was going nuts, but when you get with others grieving too ... and discuss what's going on ... a lot of healing can happen. May God continue to bless you both. Take care.
You are not alone....I took Dad to all his doctor, ER, hospital visits for the last 2 years. He went Home in July...now I am trying to find my way back to Me...amidst helping my 88 year old mother. Now my brother is being tested for bladder cancer...it is Life, it can be overwhelming. I am learning to take each day, endure the moments of sorrow and pick myself up and move one step in front of the other. If you can, let it come and then let it go. Peace I leave with you....Jesus Father, please cover these precious ones in Your comfort and care.
I know grief all too well and I’ve also literally fought Satan’s attacks from all sides all at once. Every bit of pain we give to God he turns into a breath of fresh air, a little at a time, carrying us through when we just can’t. The thing of it is he wants all your pieces, all of the time, and wow what beauty he makes out of our broken pieces… Prayers continue for you and your family.. When you can’t stand anymore, that’s when you kneel down 💜
Shawn and Mel, I am so sorry that you are going through so much right now. I'm glad you shared this with us. It is through sharing that we find our strength again and begin to recharge the love that we feel we've lost. Prayers are such an easy way for us to help right away. We love you both. Be gentle with yourselves and know you are never alone. Your getting through this will help others to remember have faith and know that they are not alone either. I'm sending big love and hugs along with continued prayers for healing. This will get better in time.
Praying for you both. I lost a sister 3 years ago and I thought I was going to go crazy and sometimes the thought of her being gone and the way she was taken from us still takes my breath away I understand that grief and pain. Take care of yourselves.
I lost my husband 5 years ago, I was lost for awhile and I honestly didn’t know how I was going to survive without him, he was my life. I had to dig down deep within myself and told myself not to give up even though I wanted to. I have always been resilient to overcome trials and tribulations, I kept busy taking care of everything that needed to be done. I found my strength through the Lord. It takes time to find yourself again, the grieving process never ends, it was hard to even to carry on a conversation about my husband, but at least now I can without crying. I had a great life with him and have so many memories of our journey together. I can smile and laugh again, but I will always miss him. You will survive these tragic times too. God bless you both.
You can't be up if you've never been down. You need time, Shawn. Grieving is exhausting. I'm really sorry you guys are having a tough time. We've all been scared, exhausted, at the end of our rope. Keep leaning on each other and us! You both mean so much to so many of us, just tell us what we can do to help and we'll come thru! Thank you for sharing your hearts with us, I love and respect you both so much, I truly feel like you're family. All the best for you and your families. You got this ❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
Deuteronomy 31:6, where it says: "Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you." My husband passed in Feb this year. I depend on this scripture and others daily. Stay strong. The devil attacks those that love God the most, he wants you to stumble. Give it God and The Almighty will kick the enemy back under his rock where he belongs. Keep your focus on Jesus, because He see's Everything and knows your heart. Sending you love and hugs!
The power of your words, rest assured they have helped me and I'm sure others? I wasn't aware I was crying listening to you as I felt for you and realised a lot of me is still blocked by grief and fear. Thank you for sharing this. ❤🙏👵🇬🇧
1 Peter 5:8 "Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith"
I'm 78 with COPD and everyday is a struggle, plus I'm broke as a joke. But the power of prayer and positivity helps you through. Remember, once you figure out the worst thing that could happen and you work it out in steps...the stress will begin to lighten up. Keep your humor it's the best medicine..
I will be 75 in four days. God delivered me from death four times. Twice last year within 3 months. Don't give up!!! Hold on to God. He is in control! My prayers are with you.
You’re brother would want you to live your best, and fullest life. Live for him. Depression is hard. Good diet helps. Exercise helps. Walks help. Fill your soul with goodness. Praying you find peace and comfort. After loss, you have learn to live a new normal without them and it takes time. It will get easier with time. Give yourself time to work through it. We love you both. Take care of each other. ❤️🙏🏻❤️
I lost my mother and four of my siblings within a a few years of each other, and it seemed just as I got to accept the death of one, another perished. That is when I developed the close relationship with Yeshua (Jesus) and Yahwey (the name of the God of the Israelites in the Bible). He believes in you as he believed in Job, and Satan attacks Yahwey's chosen people. But the good news is that trials are a sign that you are special; He is always with you and that he has given you many gifts, including an adoring wife, protective angels and another day above ground. Praise him and bless you both; hallelujah. You are in our prayers. Shalom
We understand losing those you love in this life. My husband and I have had 4 losses in a short time, a car accident, I broke my arm and elbow, our home is needing so many repairs and the stresses of the world we hear daily. You will make it through this time in your life. My husband and I too went through a rough time but we put our trust in The Lord Jesus Christ. Stay strong when we are weak , we are really strong. You are both a beautiful couple and The Lord is for you and not against you. Your love will be your healing. Be there for each other! 🙏❤️✝️
I've noticed that around this time of year, a lot of bad things happen to a lot of people. It is definitely a spiritual attack that we are experiencing as the holidays approach. I am so sorry for your loss, Shawn. I pray that God strengthens you and your family. I pray that Yahweh will protect your marriage, and whatever the enemy tries to do will fail in the name of Jesus Christ. I rebuke every demonic spirit, trying to attack your health in the name of Jesus. 🙏🏾
Praying for yall. My grandma passed 2 years ago, i still miss her so much. I am so glad i have so many happy memories and can still hear her voice in times of need. She was the one person I've always been the closest to. The devil tries to hold us down, because he knows he lost. Stay in prayer, God is the one who wins.
Shawn, I lost my older brother when he was 44 to stage four prostate cancer. I feel your pain. I am praying for the peace to be on you and Mel. Please give yourself time, grief takes time. I’m asking God to surround you with his light and love and walk with you through all this
My heart breaks for you both. I know grief. Great pain happens to only those who love deeply. You give so much joy to your followers and friends. I pray that time gives you peace. ❤❤❤
Thank you for being transparent. This is real talk. I too deal with grief and depression myself. I deal PTSD as well. I understand how it is to be sucked into that dark hole and not know how to find my way back out. As cliche as it sounds, cast all your cares on the Lord. It's a daily thing. You are deeply loved, highly favored and greatly blessed!
"You solve nothing with a sword in your hand. We fight with a weapon they don't understand" Lyrics, my partner. Love from rural Ireland, sprinkled in snow☘🎶
God knows your strength he will never allow more than you can handle trouble don’t last always gotta keep your head up and stay solid no matter what it will hurt but it won’t destroy love y’all king and queen!!!!!!
There’s no time limit for grieving but praying and a good family unit will help in this testing time,and remember when you get through this you will come out stronger. Much love and good health from the UK🙏
As someone who deals with depression and suffered a mental breakdown when I lost my Nana who raised me when my biological parents left me at 2 weeks old I can tell you there is no time limit on grief. She was my world. I cared for her during her years with Alzheimer’s she died in my arms. That was 2012. Not a single day goes by I don’t think of her. Many of the people around me including family members don’t understand why my grief is so deep. I DON’T UNDERSTAND IT. I almost committed the ultimate sin to join her. It’s God that stopped me from doing it. I’m in counseling now. I journal now. I pray. I try to live every day. God Bless You Both
Yea but these 2 are blaming it on politics. They need to stand up to these Democrats! Like Mel said, her daughter isn't talking to her....becuz she's a Democrat!!
Shawn and Mel you are awesome! Many of us have been where you are. Pray unceasingly! We are praying for you. Keep going one day at a time. Take whatever time you need to get through this season. We your viewing audience love and appreciate you.
My dear Sean and Mel, you guys are in my prayers. I am determined that regardless of age, grief is just the hardest to overcome as human beings. I lost my Daddy this year in a very traumatic way. While I’m so thankful to the Lord that I had the greatest Dad and how fortunate I am to have had him as long as I did….it’s painful and death stings. He was a retired firefighter and fire inspector. He was and will always be my Hero! In his line of work he has to work 24 hour shifts and fly to other states to learn and teach others about fire prevention. He piloted a puppet program to put on for grade schools to teach children what to do if they were ever in a dangerous situation. Grief doesn’t come with a manual on how to deal with the full spectrum of emotions that comes with the death. God, prayers, memories, and love are what we lean into. He was given a full fireman’s funeral and his casket was carried to his final resting place on the back of a fire truck instead of a hearse. The night of his visitation/wake I thought if I just could force myself to feel the real and raw emotions it would somehow ease the pain quicker. It didn’t work. I miss him with every breath I take and I finally reached out for grief therapy. It has helped a little by keeping me focused on the family I still am blessed to have and knowing my precious Daddy resides with Jesus and is healed in every way. You never know what others go through because some just smile to camouflage the pain or trauma. You both are so inspiring and bold with your truth. Prayers and faith can make the impossible possible. Sending a huge hug and love to you both! Keep fighting the good fight!
It's wonderful you have each other even if things are bad right now that's a blessing in itself. November has hit my family hard too with my mom going in and out of the hospital dealing with confusion and weakness. I've been her caregiver since I was 18 in 2010. Thats when she got West Nile virus, and it ruined her kidneys at 43. Stress does kill like you said. I'm also her only caregiver so it's been hard. Love your channel and hope things improve for you.
I am a believer and I believe in the power of prayer. You will be victorious and we will continue our prayers each and every day. You have brought us hours of enjoyment with your reactions and I want to enjoy many more. Prayers, always. 🙏🙏🙏
Soemthing beautiful is waititng on the otherside of this struggle. And life is not about ups and downs its about walking your path and experiencing the great Joy in the midst of your pain. AMEN❤❤❤ I AM crying .. Praise God xoxox
Doubt is the devil. Remember that if you believe in God, best believe your loved ones who have passed on, are in good hands. You two have each other to lean on. Never ever give up on your family. Now that you know that. Best of luck.
I have been lifted with a smile that I got after watching some of your soulful music reactions. So, with the hope to put a smile on your faces, here's a little tail of someone being in trouble: There once was two bunny rabbits enjoying their day, when they suddenly heard then saw a pack of wolves running toward them barking and howling. So the bunny rabbits start running and trying to escape. Finally they found a hollowed out fallen tree trunk and ran inside. The wolves could not squeeze into the trunk, but stayed outside barking and howling. The mama bunny ask the papa bunny, "what can we do?" The papa bunny, said to mama bunny, "Don't worry. We will just wait in here until we outnumber them." Come on now.. SMILE 🥰
Shawn and Mel, you guys are amazing warriors! Believe it or not, Satan cannot move in the midst of your truths! The author of lies moves in smoke screens and half truths! It’s never our favorite thing to do when we humble ourselves, but you are tearing down his malicious plans of destruction! I’ve been subscribed to you for quite a while now, and totally LOVE your reactions! Your love for each other is alive and it shows through your videos! Look, I’m aware that I’m not telling you guys anything that you don’t know already, but just want to show that I’m serious about lifting you up and covering you in prayer! God’s got you!
Focus on keeping God, yourselves, and your family as the top priorities. When God comes first, everything else will naturally fall into place. 🙏💕🙏🫶🏼 Take it day by day or minute by minute, but you will always be stronger than you think with God at your side. We all love you and are behind you supporting you. Prayers are being rained down on you. ❤❤❤🫶🏼🙏🙏🙏
I really appreciate your honesty and transparency. I continue to pray for both of you, For your comfort and healing. Much love and respect to you! I know I’m not in the chat often but just know I’m praying and will continue to pray for you. May God bless and watch over you!!!
Shawn, grief is devastating. You need to take as long as you need to recover. I am 72. My Mom had to go into a nursing home in 2018. My Dad died later that year. My Mom died in 2919, my uncle in 2020, my aunt in 2021, and my husband in 2022. I crashed and I am still stuck there. I just want to be alone in my house. I don't do anything. I have nothing left to look forward to. The grief and sadness is too much. I know exactly what you're feeling. My therapist tells me there is no time frame for grief. You have your wife to stand beside you. My husband was my rock too. Without him, I am done. I am glad God helps you. Whatever works you need to go with. I am not religious, just spiritual. So I send blessings to you and Mel that you will weather this storm together ❤
You two are so loved and appreciated. I am glad that you are feeling better Shawn, and I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Mel, sorry to hear about your mom. My own mother has not spoken to me in 16 years. So I understand the pain of that loss. Love and hugs to you guys!
Up lifting you now. Stay strong and believe in the Lord he saves us all. You will be with your brother again now is your time to shine it only makes us stronger. God bless you and your family
Your marriage is your protection, fight for it with all your power ! God loves marriage, don’t let the devil hurt God through you !
Pray together every night, thank and praise god and read your bible. Rebuke devil in your life.god already defeated him.
You two are soul mates....y'all got this.
Hallelujah!!
Transparency is better. You can't heal if you're running from or trying to hide your problems. I will be praying for you that God will give you strength and continued courage, healing and comfort. Lean into Jesus and stay strong in the Word. Yes, the attacks from the darkness always come when you're down. Much love from an old lady in Texas.

You are not alone....I took Dad to all his doctor, ER, hospital visits for the last 2 years. He went Home in July...now I am trying to find my way back to Me...amidst helping my 88 year old mother. Now my brother is being tested for bladder cancer...it is Life, it can be overwhelming. I am learning to take each day, endure the moments of sorrow and pick myself up and move one step in front of the other. If you can, let it come and then let it go. Peace I leave with you....Jesus Father, please cover these precious ones in Your comfort and care.
You've given so much to all of us viewers. God bless you and keep you !
God is with you all!!! 🙏
Please just focus on you and your family. When you get back on, your true followers will be here.
Hugs and love ❤️
I know grief all too well and I’ve also literally fought Satan’s attacks from all sides all at once. Every bit of pain we give to God he turns into a breath of fresh air, a little at a time, carrying us through when we just can’t. The thing of it is he wants all your pieces, all of the time, and wow what beauty he makes out of our broken pieces… Prayers continue for you and your family.. When you can’t stand anymore, that’s when you kneel down 💜
Hold your heads up high…God got you all. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐
You are in my prayers. Let us lift you up. We got you guys just like you always got us.
Shawn and Mel, I am so sorry that you are going through so much right now. I'm glad you shared this with us. It is through sharing that we find our strength again and begin to recharge the love that we feel we've lost. Prayers are such an easy way for us to help right away. We love you both. Be gentle with yourselves and know you are never alone. Your getting through this will help others to remember have faith and know that they are not alone either. I'm sending big love and hugs along with continued prayers for healing. This will get better in time.
Remember this.."Greater He That Is In You, Is Greater Than He Of The World". GOD'S BLESSINGS TO YOU BOTH.
You two were made for each other❤ you both have been on my mind alot.someone in Alabama loves you guys!!!!
Praying for you both. I lost a sister 3 years ago and I thought I was going to go crazy and sometimes the thought of her being gone and the way she was taken from us still takes my breath away I understand that grief and pain. Take care of yourselves.
All the blessings in the world for you two and your children ! ❤🙏🏻
I lost my husband 5 years ago, I was lost for awhile and I honestly didn’t know how I was going to survive without him, he was my life. I had to dig down deep within myself and told myself not to give up even though I wanted to. I have always been resilient to overcome trials and tribulations, I kept busy taking care of everything that needed to be done. I found my strength through the Lord. It takes time to find yourself again, the grieving process never ends, it was hard to even to carry on a conversation about my husband, but at least now I can without crying. I had a great life with him and have so many memories of our journey together. I can smile and laugh again, but I will always miss him. You will survive these tragic times too. God bless you both.
We support you guys and love you guys, you’ll be okay, be praying and I’ll pray for you and your family ✝️🙏🏻😇
You can't be up if you've never been down.
You need time, Shawn. Grieving is exhausting. I'm really sorry you guys are having a tough time.
We've all been scared, exhausted, at the end of our rope. Keep leaning on each other and us! You both mean so much to so many of us, just tell us what we can do to help and we'll come thru!
Thank you for sharing your hearts with us, I love and respect you both so much, I truly feel like you're family.
All the best for you and your families.
You got this ❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
Deuteronomy 31:6, where it says:
"Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you."
My husband passed in Feb this year. I depend on this scripture and others daily. Stay strong. The devil attacks those that love God the most, he wants you to stumble. Give it God and The Almighty will kick the enemy back under his rock where he belongs. Keep your focus on Jesus, because He see's Everything and knows your heart. Sending you love and hugs!
Prayers good thoughts and well wishes for all of you.
The power of your words, rest assured they have helped me and I'm sure others? I wasn't aware I was crying listening to you as I felt for you and realised a lot of me is still blocked by grief and fear. Thank you for sharing this. ❤🙏👵🇬🇧
Can you believe we ALL have found love, sincere love, and friends on the internet? I love it! It’s crazy and wonderful! 🥰
1 Peter 5:8
"Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith"
Lord be with Shawn and Mel during these hard times in their lives bring Peace and let them keep their eyes on you in In JESUS NAME I PRAY AMEN.
I'm 78 with COPD and everyday is a struggle, plus I'm broke as a joke.
But the power of prayer and positivity helps you through. Remember, once you figure out the worst thing that could happen and you work it out in steps...the stress will begin to lighten up. Keep your humor it's the best medicine..
I will be 75 in four days. God delivered me from death four times. Twice last year within 3 months. Don't give up!!! Hold on to God. He is in control! My prayers are with you.
You’re family to us.
🙏🏼 praying for you both and your family ❤
Stay strong, you two. In these times, we gotta lean on each other and be supportive of each other. Let's all keep the human in humanity.
You’re brother would want you to live your best, and fullest life. Live for him. Depression is hard. Good diet helps. Exercise helps. Walks help. Fill your soul with goodness. Praying you find peace and comfort. After loss, you have learn to live a new normal without them and it takes time. It will get easier with time. Give yourself time to work through it. We love you both. Take care of each other. ❤️🙏🏻❤️
Praying for you both. The saints are interceding!!!
I will continue to send prayers for you. 🙏
I lost my mother and four of my siblings within a a few years of each other, and it seemed just as I got to accept the death of one, another perished. That is when I developed the close relationship with Yeshua (Jesus) and Yahwey (the name of the God of the Israelites in the Bible). He believes in you as he believed in Job, and Satan attacks Yahwey's chosen people. But the good news is that trials are a sign that you are special; He is always with you and that he has given you many gifts, including an adoring wife, protective angels and another day above ground. Praise him and bless you both; hallelujah. You are in our prayers. Shalom
You know that a couple that prays together stays together 💖🙏
You guys don't let the darkness take you over... The light will shine on you and warm you and save you!!!
We understand losing those you love in this life. My husband and I have had 4 losses in a short time, a car accident, I broke my arm and elbow, our home is needing so many repairs and the stresses of the world we hear daily. You will make it through this time in your life. My husband and I too went through a rough time but we put our trust in The Lord Jesus Christ. Stay strong when we are weak , we are really strong. You are both a beautiful couple and The Lord is for you and not against you. Your love will be your healing. Be there for each other! 🙏❤️✝️
I've noticed that around this time of year, a lot of bad things happen to a lot of people. It is definitely a spiritual attack that we are experiencing as the holidays approach. I am so sorry for your loss, Shawn. I pray that God strengthens you and your family. I pray that Yahweh will protect your marriage, and whatever the enemy tries to do will fail in the name of Jesus Christ. I rebuke every demonic spirit, trying to attack your health in the name of Jesus. 🙏🏾
Amen!
Praying for yall. My grandma passed 2 years ago, i still miss her so much. I am so glad i have so many happy memories and can still hear her voice in times of need. She was the one person I've always been the closest to. The devil tries to hold us down, because he knows he lost. Stay in prayer, God is the one who wins.
We are all with you. Please stick together and focus on yourself. We need you.
I'll pray for you have faith I love you both🎉 from Washington!! The devil is a liar and he's a defeated foe!! Smile you are loved ❤️😍❤️🎉
Shawn, I lost my older brother when he was 44 to stage four prostate cancer. I feel your pain. I am praying for the peace to be on you and Mel. Please give yourself time, grief takes time. I’m asking God to surround you with his light and love and walk with you through all this
My heart breaks for you both. I know grief. Great pain happens to only those who love deeply. You give so much joy to your followers and friends. I pray that time gives you peace. ❤❤❤
Remember: it’s hard to stay mad at someone you are constantly praying for. Especially if that person is yourself. 🙏🏻💜
Satan only bothers us when we're doing the right thing
Stand strong against the wiles of the devil I know that we are praying for you!
Thank you for being transparent. This is real talk. I too deal with grief and depression myself. I deal PTSD as well. I understand how it is to be sucked into that dark hole and not know how to find my way back out. As cliche as it sounds, cast all your cares on the Lord. It's a daily thing. You are deeply loved, highly favored and greatly blessed!
"You solve nothing with a sword in your hand. We fight with a weapon they don't understand" Lyrics, my partner. Love from rural Ireland, sprinkled in snow☘🎶
I love you both and I am praying so hard 🙏
GOD bless both of you!!!! You are in my prayers!!!
God knows your strength he will never allow more than you can handle trouble don’t last always gotta keep your head up and stay solid no matter what it will hurt but it won’t destroy love y’all king and queen!!!!!!
There’s no time limit for grieving but praying and a good family unit will help in this testing time,and remember when you get through this you will come out stronger. Much love and good health from the UK🙏
Please stay together I love watching you both. Prayers for you and your family😊
I’m lifting you both in prayer.
Much love and prayers to you both! It sometimes takes just a weak moment for the devil to creep in. Much love and light to you both!
As someone who deals with depression and suffered a mental breakdown when I lost my Nana who raised me when my biological parents left me at 2 weeks old I can tell you there is no time limit on grief. She was my world. I cared for her during her years with Alzheimer’s she died in my arms. That was 2012. Not a single day goes by I don’t think of her. Many of the people around me including family members don’t understand why my grief is so deep. I DON’T UNDERSTAND IT. I almost committed the ultimate sin to join her. It’s God that stopped me from doing it. I’m in counseling now. I journal now. I pray. I try to live every day. God Bless You Both
Yea but these 2 are blaming it on politics. They need to stand up to these Democrats! Like Mel said, her daughter isn't talking to her....becuz she's a Democrat!!
Yes! But their letting politics and the Dems get to them. Like I think Mel said her daughter isnt talking to her...because she's a Democrat!!
Shawn and Mel you are awesome! Many of us have been where you are. Pray unceasingly! We are praying for you. Keep going one day at a time. Take whatever time you need to get through this season. We your viewing audience love and appreciate you.
I'm praying for you guys in every way. I love you.
I lost my brother 4 years ago he was 56 heart attack 3 weeks later my wife of 21 years left but God got me through it. 🙌🏻 God bless you guys . ❤
My dear Sean and Mel, you guys are in my prayers. I am determined that regardless of age, grief is just the hardest to overcome as human beings. I lost my Daddy this year in a very traumatic way. While I’m so thankful to the Lord that I had the greatest Dad and how fortunate I am to have had him as long as I did….it’s painful and death stings. He was a retired firefighter and fire inspector. He was and will always be my Hero! In his line of work he has to work 24 hour shifts and fly to other states to learn and teach others about fire prevention. He piloted a puppet program to put on for grade schools to teach children what to do if they were ever in a dangerous situation. Grief doesn’t come with a manual on how to deal with the full spectrum of emotions that comes with the death. God, prayers, memories, and love are what we lean into. He was given a full fireman’s funeral and his casket was carried to his final resting place on the back of a fire truck instead of a hearse. The night of his visitation/wake I thought if I just could force myself to feel the real and raw emotions it would somehow ease the pain quicker. It didn’t work. I miss him with every breath I take and I finally reached out for grief therapy. It has helped a little by keeping me focused on the family I still am blessed to have and knowing my precious Daddy resides with Jesus and is healed in every way. You never know what others go through because some just smile to camouflage the pain or trauma. You both are so inspiring and bold with your truth. Prayers and faith can make the impossible possible. Sending a huge hug and love to you both! Keep fighting the good fight!
It's wonderful you have each other even if things are bad right now that's a blessing in itself. November has hit my family hard too with my mom going in and out of the hospital dealing with confusion and weakness. I've been her caregiver since I was 18 in 2010. Thats when she got West Nile virus, and it ruined her kidneys at 43. Stress does kill like you said. I'm also her only caregiver so it's been hard. Love your channel and hope things improve for you.
I am a believer and I believe in the power of prayer. You will be victorious and we will continue our prayers each and every day. You have brought us hours of enjoyment with your reactions and I want to enjoy many more. Prayers, always. 🙏🙏🙏
Soemthing beautiful is waititng on the otherside of this struggle. And life is not about ups and downs its about walking your path and experiencing the great Joy in the midst of your pain. AMEN❤❤❤ I AM crying .. Praise God xoxox
Shawn & Mel Don't give up Let go and let God handle it you can't but God can. Just let him do the lifting and you do the resting.
Doubt is the devil. Remember that if you believe in God, best believe your loved ones who have passed on, are in good hands. You two have each other to lean on. Never ever give up on your family. Now that you know that. Best of luck.
I agree. Personal responsibility for our actions is what this world lacks today. Always passing the blame even even the Devil doesn't cut it anymore.
I have been lifted with a smile that I got after watching some of your soulful music reactions. So, with the hope to put a smile on your faces, here's a little tail of someone being in trouble: There once was two bunny rabbits enjoying their day, when they suddenly heard then saw a pack of wolves running toward them barking and howling. So the bunny rabbits start running and trying to escape. Finally they found a hollowed out fallen tree trunk and ran inside. The wolves could not squeeze into the trunk, but stayed outside barking and howling. The mama bunny ask the papa bunny, "what can we do?" The papa bunny, said to mama bunny, "Don't worry. We will just wait in here until we outnumber them." Come on now.. SMILE 🥰
Wishing the best for you both guys, and your family too...
Salutes from Brazil...
We love you and are here for you.
Shawn and Mel, you guys are amazing warriors! Believe it or not, Satan cannot move in the midst of your truths! The author of lies moves in smoke screens and half truths! It’s never our favorite thing to do when we humble ourselves, but you are tearing down his malicious plans of destruction! I’ve been subscribed to you for quite a while now, and totally LOVE your reactions! Your love for each other is alive and it shows through your videos! Look, I’m aware that I’m not telling you guys anything that you don’t know already, but just want to show that I’m serious about lifting you up and covering you in prayer! God’s got you!
Focus on keeping God, yourselves, and your family as the top priorities. When God comes first, everything else will naturally fall into place. 🙏💕🙏🫶🏼 Take it day by day or minute by minute, but you will always be stronger than you think with God at your side. We all love you and are behind you supporting you. Prayers are being rained down on you. ❤❤❤🫶🏼🙏🙏🙏
I really appreciate your honesty and transparency. I continue to pray for both of you, For your comfort and healing. Much love and respect to you! I know I’m not in the chat often but just know I’m praying and will continue to pray for you. May God bless and watch over you!!!
Shawn, grief is devastating. You need to take as long as you need to recover. I am 72. My Mom had to go into a nursing home in 2018. My Dad died later that year. My Mom died in 2919, my uncle in 2020, my aunt in 2021, and my husband in 2022. I crashed and I am still stuck there. I just want to be alone in my house. I don't do anything. I have nothing left to look forward to. The grief and sadness is too much. I know exactly what you're feeling. My therapist tells me there is no time frame for grief. You have your wife to stand beside you. My husband was my rock too. Without him, I am done. I am glad God helps you. Whatever works you need to go with. I am not religious, just spiritual. So I send blessings to you and Mel that you will weather this storm together ❤
You two are so loved and appreciated. I am glad that you are feeling better Shawn, and I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Mel, sorry to hear about your mom. My own mother has not spoken to me in 16 years. So I understand the pain of that loss. Love and hugs to you guys!
Up lifting you now. Stay strong and believe in the Lord he saves us all. You will be with your brother again now is your time to shine it only makes us stronger. God bless you and your family
