How has God taught you to trust him in ANY uncertainty? Also, P.S. sad I have to address this but I want to point out that bars and bartending is on a spectrum. There are creepy dive bars where people drink their life away on one extreme end…and there are steakhouses and wedding venues that have a bar to add to the ambience on the other. I work as an event bartender 1 day a week serving beer and wine to corporate parties at a high end steakhouse. Hope that helps with the imagination. And those concerned I’m aiding in intense addiction.
I have a question, what made you leave the church job even though you still needed work which you now are doing bartending to make money. Was it not enough money? Or taking too much of your time?
Just recently, God took me through something that I had to learn that I have to look to Him ONLY (although He is growing my spiritual "family" support group around me), but it's something I can't really talk about, because it has to do with sin and could dishonor a particular person if I discuss it. I have made myself accountable to a few people. God is good. .. He will be HERE for me, as He TOOK AWAY my "back up plan."
@@maryldemilo oh thanks for the clarity my mind never assumed you were on the extremes of bartending only wanted to understand your thought process in rationalizing what most of us deem “worthy” work vs. aligning with where God needs you and finding a place that can better work for the specific needs of your household. Anyway, May the Lord bless you on this path!
God stripped me down to below an earthly zero. He took my mom, my husband, and my home. That was the beginning of a very intense 5 years where it just kept coming. Trust in God is all we have. There is nothing else. Lean on Him with complete and utter abandon to self 🔥🥰🔥
In a year, five years ago. My marriage ended, my youngest, only son, died on a bicycle accident. At 17 :/ My huge birth family (previously as tight as could be, I thought) disappeared. Am on my own. And yes. FAIT Makes it all okay. 😬 I accept the losses and changes. Welcome beautiful new experiences. Survive what “should” have destroyed me. And Rather. 🙏 Grateful. Blessed. Thriving. And ready for what God decides. This is it. This is how life is. Everyone to carry their Cross And if we don’t get stuck on mourning, we can see what’s on the other side. 🙏 Beautiful how Scriptures mark the path. Life Instructions. 😊 🛐
@@lLauraLSP Good Lord.....I am so sorry to hear this. Absolutely not fair. But you have incredible resiliency and faith which is fantastic! God bless you I hope the absolute best comes your way.
That sounds similar to me. My family have died, my marriage ended, and let's not discuss my house. I'm hanging on to God's word and promises. It's the only thing getting me through.
My family and wife thought I was crazy for trusting God’s plan. I had a toxic job with great pay. After 6 years in i prayed for a job that fits me and my heart. Later that day I was involved in a fender bender without damage to any property. I was suspended without pay for 6 months. 69 days in I was called to come back to work. I refused and now I’m allowing God to guide me even if it looks uncertain
like the other comment said, you have skills and researching how to utilize them and/or finding another job will be easy for you. just keep that same faith and believe in the path you are walking. but remember you have a family and practical measures for a male with a family are much more imperative. in short, take care of your loved ones before faith. sending love, you will win.
Thanks. I needed this. Am homeless (live in a van, not by choice), jobless (so setting up my own service) and alone (but, ok with that). Keep praying and praising God and relying on his guidance. Very near the edge, but still have faith.
I'm also going through something similar except I live in a tent not a van. The way I see it, when you have nothing it is truly a blessing because it's giving us an opportunity to have God be our everything. At one point He was even my alarm clock when I had no phone , electronics and nothing with the correct time on it.
Strong prayers for you asking God & Jesus to give you a home, an income, good health, and happiness. And whatever you get tithe 10%. That's also faith.
I used to be independent and self-sufficient. My worth came from the outside. God had me get rid of everything. I had to set my pride aside and ask for help. Learn my worth comes from God. And let go of my timeline and expectations. This path has increased my faith and trust in God and my overall relationships
It is hard. I am a pastor of a small church that is rapidly declining in numbers. There is uncertainty not only over my own precarious financial future, but also for the people, who may soon be without their church. May God bless you and your ministry.
Maybe God is trying to give you a new following , and (if you lose tht building) then a new church too. Sometimes it’s not about what’s being taken from us but what’s actually being given. Your faith needs to be bigger, esp. for a following and I know how hard that can be when God doesn’t move on our time but His. Maybe God wants to show you something in this season for a testimony to bring in a stronger following. You never know;You might need to make bones live or have fire shut up in your bones, or be after God’s heart like David, where He can lead you to a place that has been prepared for you..Point being..We may never know what God is doing but Always know tht when He blesses, it’s not just for you…Stay Encouraged ❤
This is exactly the season I’m in!! It’s so awesome to see God showing me more and more women who are walking out this level of faith. I resigned from a career of 28 years last September (2023) and I have seen God show up in was I never imagined. It took FULL surrender.
I just so happened to stumble across your video today and it has encouraged me. I've been living in the US for 2 years now and recently received my Employment Authorization card which allows me to work. I've applied for several jobs but unsuccessful. I've been so depressed and down in the dumps lately as I have a mortgage to pay. This has encouraged me to not give up. We serve a big God who has a plan to prosper us and not to harm us and plans to give hope and a future.
Congratulations on receiving your work authorization. I’m still waiting for that myself, trying to be patient and find peace in the journey not being able to work. Praying the right job finds you! 🙏
God is so good ! New seasons so come and go, i recently left a job over 100k a year and moving back home town and making a lot less but serving God more, I couldn’t be any happier. God is good !
How exciting! Now, we know in the world there wouldn't be that response, but in the Kingdom of God we understand what promotion looks like. Also, I would lovingly call your journey an "Adventure in the Lord", am I right? When He tells me were going to go on an adventure, He really means an adventure. 😇✨🫶
Lord Jesus please give me strength. I seem to bear the weight of the world on my shoulders as a single mom, I often face challenges that can seem insurmountable especially with raising two children with special needs. I’m trying to balance everything but Lord I’m struggling to make ends meet, to pay bills, and to put food on the table for my children. Jesus hear my prayers and please continue to give me strength.💕❤️
I was once in your shoes . Working 3 jobs but kept connected with the lord. He held my hand through it all and blessed me. This is your time of growth you are where you need to be focus on him and his word. ❤
he told me that he is in control of my life. HE is teaching me faith because of what is coming to the earth. its very uncomfortable but all we can do is trust becasue i have seen HIM show out. right now im 2 payments behind on my truck and have $140 in my bank. dont know how HE is going to do it but HE will. HE is going to bless us beyond what we can imagine. when we speak about faith it is going to shake people. amen
I am currently over drawn any have access to £20, with a child to feed. I don’t get paid til 31st July. I feel embarrassed to ask family and friend's. Never have i been in this situation before. God will provide for my child and I. Taking it day by day. Seasoned chickpeas are starting to become the national dish of my home. I am determined to give God glory and praise as i know things will change because i have already started to change.
I think it’s odd that it’s embarrassing to ask family for money especially when you need it. That’s one of the beauties of family to help when in need not only financially but all aspects. God is providing by giving you a mouth to ask your family. Sorry this is happening but your help is there. Love you. Be encouraged
@@davidasingleton8943 It's the embarrassment of being in this situation and my mum especially will over worry. I don't want to put that pressure on her or my brother especially. 1 is having a rough time with employers and one is nearly on the brink of divorce. The situation has strongly encouraged me to be intentional in fasting and prayer (fasting I didn't really have a choice). So far so God. My spirit man is being fed. I am realising there were things in me that needed to change ie forgiveness of my ex. Praying in tongues and interceding has been so powerful. I will definitely get through this season.
Thanks Sis! Its hard right now. I have been living in my van. While serving at church. Providing for my kids. And trying to start a business. Even with financial whoahs. But this wilderness is for my perfection. I do hate it though. I am learning that I can do better with the little money that I do have. Its hard to decide. Pay this bill or that bill? But the LORD. Is with me. Thank you so much. Your brah in Colorado. 😊
This morning on my way to work I asked Father if He was keeping me so strapped so I’d throw up my hands and say here I can’t do it? Then I said to Him “I’ve done that. Many many times! How do I stop having to do it? Why can’t I just trust without stressing again and again? “ I’m trying so hard not to worry about money. But I do. I can sometimes detach, but not always. He always provides for me every thing I need. So thank you for this. I wasn’t planning on ‘a talking to ‘ when I opened TH-cam. I was actually coming on here to study for my realtor test in 4 days. Please pray for me to pass both tests the 1st time. Thank you and thank you again for listening to God and putting this video out. Thank you Father. Amen.
Well God taught me by not being reliant on others and to have faith in him. I have had to let a lot of things go especially social media which was tough because I was in the midst of building my followers with music and photography. I believe God wants to build my character first and faith that no matter what he is the only person that will truly support me and while building a business it does take a lot of loss and effort but God will always make a way. He has broken me down in areas of my life where I truly needed it. I had fell into sin and now I am free from smoking weed so I am able to receive more financially because that was money taken away as well. I thank u God for Maryl message. God bless everyone
This testimony has answered my current battle with my life!! I just asked God to provide someone for me to talk to. Thank You Lord and thank you Maryl!! I pray that God will provide "ridiculous resources" for you! God blessed you!
This message was right on point for me. I lost a really great position at my job with great income and I feel I’ve been struggling since and I got another position at my same company but I was in shock because of the pay cut. So I kept applying for second jobs and stressing like what am I to do. But nothing has come through, none of the part time jobs I applied for contacted me back. And I’m watching this like I have to stop panic applying. I’ve been able to cover my bills, take care of myself and my children and haven’t been without a meal yet. So it’s like God has been covering me this whole time and I just need to trust him completely that all will work out according to his will
I so needed this!. I do not have the $ to pay my bills. I love kids and make basically minimum wage, though I have an Associates and extra schooling and trainings. I have poverty mindset. I have a lot of fear. I want to tithe, yet I can barely survive. Yes, I am on foodstamps and medical. I have to.
Wow did God ever use you today. I bought a house on my own, then the bottom fell out of my business, then my Mom fell, then my pet died. You covered Everything. I look forward to your post. I just subscribed. Thank you 🙏 🎉❤
Your video came up in my algorithm today and it definitely resonated with me! Current season resonated! Thank you for your obedience and being willing to share hard things that I feel like people are less likely to talk about. Keep going! I had so many takeaways.
Hey! This resonates with me on so many levels. I have a 70hr per week toxic job and I have been trusting God to show me the next steps. May God bless you. This is so helpful
God’s timing is spot on. Your video came up this morning. I’m on vacation, in and air bnb with a nasty cold. Scrapping for control when at my age (66) I should know better. I’d prefer to feel better and do all the fun stuff, but maybe God wants me to spend time with Him. My brother doesn’t need to entertain me 24/7 and I don’t need to be doing EVERYTHING on my “want to” list. Love how God can take a financial message and use it in a completely different way to meet my needs. With regards to finances I’m being led to look at three things in a different light: Commercialism Materialism Consumerism All equal idolatry You might want to add them in to your studies. (Or not) Thanks for your transparency Nana Cherry
Thank you Nana Cherry! I appreciate your comment. Its so hard to not be in control I FEEL that. Those 3 things are great. there are so many lessons. We have a lifetime to learn and be loved by God.
I am going through the same challenge right now, my business has closed down after 15 years and I have to trust that He may use totally different ways to supply my needs and desires financially, but it is still not nice to go through
This is such a great video! I’m glad I found it. It has taken me years to trust GOD especially with my finances. I have always been one to act on my own when the situation seem bleak. I hasn’t been until these last 4 years that I have learn to let go. I have struggle so hard to hear the Holy Spirit! I failed the last test though, his grace and mercy corrected my path. Now, I find myself in the same situation again except I keep hear in my head “Trust GOD”. I feel that I’m so close to a blessing that will change my life. Before, I would have reacted as the world does now, the LORD is doing a New Thing in me. It has been giving me his peace calmness while I wait. I’m so thankful that he is changing me. I pray for all of you here who needs a blessing today.🙏
Watching from Czechia but im from Zambia 🇿🇲, thank you for your timely message, i thank God for his favour upon me ever since I came here. He's totally sustained my finances throuought this time ive been here and my life in general, I pray and know that he will continue to sustain me. I know that he will sustain you too.
this really spoke to me and appeared at the perfect timing. god has really been with me this whole time but i've just been blind to it and ignored it. have had a lot of things happen to/for me lately that i can only attribute to Him. to the extent that it is impossible for me to deny his presence in my life anymore.
Hello sis in Christ wow this video was SUCH A HUGE HUGE BLESSING. I WASNT EVEN LOOKING FOR THIS the Lord sent this to me Thank you woman of God for being obedient and transparent I don't know you but I love you sis ❤️ And Lord willing I'll be back for your next one
One thing I had to realize that trusting God in this way really is a season. It was really hard transitioning out of this season and into one where God told me to strive towards my desires with his guidance.
So good...thanks for sharing!! Yeah...God been showing me personally that He has me...regardless of wht comes!!! Just a few weeks ago...the place I was working closed the doors and shut down...on my last day leaving there...as I was driving out of the parking lot...someone called me about another work opportunity ...and I was employed with better work with great benefits...and a boss who is very understanding and respectful of ppls needs!!! God is good
This is me! I was a manager in my job but stressed and wanted more time with my kids. After the pandemic my, I was demoted to a OPS position and my husband lost his job. It was very tough. But in that God kept us! I now don’t have the same responsibilities in my job so less stress and my husband got a new job. Im still learning to lean on Him, but thankfully I’m not where I used to be❤
Moments after a financial blessing Father brought this video to my attention. I had been praying for help to feed my guinea pigs. I too have been on this journey of depending on Father as my Source and Father's consistent Word for me has been "Wait." I remembered Joel Osteen telling a story about how his dad prayed for two cows, but instead of waiting on the Lord, he moved out of impatience, and God had told him that he could have had two cows. So as I was praying to Father for help the other day, I looked down and saw my sisters 2 cow slippers. Today, Father gave my guinea pigs double food :) I know it's not really about the food and the cows, but truly having faith in Him. He will provide for us in the wildnerness in His perfect way. What He's truly asking for is our heart Thank you for sharing your story and giving me more courage to share mine!
this video is 23 minutes long. and literally. you outline my understanding perfectly. really happy to see other people are having the same experience and understanding their faith in the same way. God bless you.
I’ve never seen any of your videos, my heart and head are weary, weak and defeated. Just when I’m convinced God doesn’t care, he has forsaken me and is apparently enjoying watching my nonstop troubles, he puts this kind of message in front of me !!! God is faithful according to HIS will, not MINE !!! Praise God in all that we face 🙏
Based on my algorithm - there wasn’t any reason your page should have shown up. And yet it did- because of The Holy I Am!!! This is exactly what I needed! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ Thank you for being the vessel to which this message was delivered to me ❤
I left my teaching job at the end of the school year in May. Now what? I taught for 20 years. I’m now 72 years old. I still want to work because there are things I would still like to do. And I’m a little bored, but on the positive side, my home is really clean! I needed to see this message. I’m not desperate. I do have some money. I find myself at a standstill-paralyzed. Maybe God wants me to take a little time to regroup and stay open to new things. I’ve worked all my life. I’m going back to watch your video again-I needed this message.
Yes this: standstill, paralysed but my home is 😂clean. It is really strange and nothing seems to open up, whenever I try and look for some way to show up, I am thrown back to the same standstill.
God has taken me on quite the journey to gain my trust. I used to think being content meant settling for less but I really connected with your explanation. In this season God has removed a partner I thought I would marry and my business went from flourishing to almost shuttering completely. Each step of the way God has shown me that He is enough for me and while I may not be traveling or living the glamorous life I have enough. And yes I have some past due bills but so far everything important has always been paid for. It is hard to let go but there is a certain peace and freedom to be found when I let God be God in my life that is way better than me trying to control situations that were never in my control in the first place. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This is my confirmation, I left my job in January hoping and trusting the Lord will open a door that aligns in my true calling, it still didnt happen, but I know now that I should wait on him🙏
Thank you for sharing this literally entering into this season of my life. Key thing I took from your video is sometimes the suffering is really for our good and he loves us so much they he will make us walk through something to bring us closer to him!
🙏🏽Thank you Sistar 💫, this was a confirmation for my soul, as I tread the journey of beINg content with the current journey of releasing who I was as a 6 figure earner, to who I am becomINg, as I reply from my daughters couch that has been my bed for the last 30 days. EverythINg that you shared has blessed me and made me certaIN that although it doesn’t look like what I imagined 52 would be, death is part of rebirth. I surrender. Ashe.
We are trusting God to provide for the homeless families, leper colonies and the beggars we serve here in India.❤ -with no financial stability or guarantee for how much will come in every month. The Lord is faithful!!
This definitely resonated with me. I was feeling so low about my finances. Feeling like I am not enough. I was reading the idea of getting a second job b/c I don't want to be exhausted and dislike what I'm doing. I was looking for something to just help me get centered while I work on my budget. After listening and taking notes, I feel relaxed and understood. It was easier for me to shift from needing to be certain about an outcome and just surrender and trust. Thank you for such a great and needed reminder.
Oh wow...more relaxed and understood is a wonderful place to be. I find making decisions from that place of connectedness with self and God is so much better (with the outcomes too)
Thanks for sharing ❤it really means a lot. I’m going through financial hardship because I quit my job due to a toxic work environment. I don’t regret it, but I must admit it has been hard. God has been faithful. ❤ just today after 5 months, I received a job offer slightly over minimum wage but I am content and grateful, I feel humbled and thankful 😌 sometimes things may not go my way but God is bringing me closer to Himself💕💕Amen!
Watch out. Discern. Some schools talk all the fine-sounding talk about how they are there to equip you, but behind it all they are fundamentally narcissistic institutions that want your money. Very rarely, if ever, will the school have the courage or integrity to say this.
WOW! Execellent! Once I lost everything! Best thing ever. What people don’t realize is we are in a constant state of fearing that. Once that happens you realize no big deal. You get ride of a lot of junk you don’t need that you have been worrying about how to keep or how to move it. This is stuff you have dragged with you for years from your past. Finally I was able to create the life that I really wanted and not the life I was born into. I earned a lot more money because I was mentally free! What I did from that experience was to think about what I call “memory stones” mentioned in the Bible. Markers that God told his people to place to remember all he has done for us! I started a memory book. I bought the largest Hallmark picture album I could find and started to fill it with all the wonderful things God had provided for me in miraculous ways. It was an awesome project and I love reviewing it every once in a while as a reminder of God’s amazing provision!
Sometimes it feels like delusion. I put my trust in Yah and quit some pretty good jobs with great benefits, to start a business that has been struggling to say the least since starting in 2023. Everyone thinks I’m nuts for the choices I made. I was convinced that because The Most High gave me the direction, I would be successful right away. Either way, I’m going to believe the promise until my last breath. I can’t go back anyway, so I gots to see it through 😅. Shalom.
The journey is part of our evolution. I did something similar and it’s a hard slog at times but I wouldn’t change it because the lessons learnt have been incredible.
That’s amazing how you mentioned it may just be God inviting me to apply for the job because I did twice and first time I didn’t have a resume ready but the next time I did I ended up getting the job! However, I still have bad anxiety & scared if I made the right decision or not. It’s been better now and hope it stays like it is because it’s definitely different going from 1st to 3rd shift less toxic, drama, gossip, more/easy money. I need to focus now more time on God since that shift allows me way more free time on the job. ❤
Totally! I still to this day add things to what God says and have to be honest with my assumptions and also be willing to make decisions even if i don't hear anything.
I must say this message is divinely right on time. Everything that was said is exactly what thoughts/questions I have been having and what I needed to hear. I’ve always been pretty good about trusting Source and Gods timing but this certainly reinforced it. Thank you truly.
Hey Friend!!! Recently, I've been urged to let go myself in the sense of letting go of my ego. Thinking I know what is best for me even though God knows what's best for myself. Trust the Lord and tell the Lord what you want in life and God will provide. Catholic prayers and ahem. other means and ways to communicate with the divine are perfect guides to detach and let the Lord take over. The old adage. "take things day by day" is absolutely true and the more you trust in the divine, things will always work out for those. Have a great weekend!!! Sorry for the long comment but you're doing great things because I see the signs!!! Blessed Be. :)
I’m so grateful that I decided to watch and listen to this. I’m reminded of Paul, of Job, and then there’s Jesus. 😊 All praised God no matter the circumstances. And it’s very tempting, I’m finding my doing it right now, to think “oh I get it! Ok, I get it and so now I really trust You, so you’ll make it all ok!” No. Yes but no. Not *my* version of ok, His version, which I must trust is so much better than I can conceive of. Use the tools we have, let Him make what He will. Thank you for making this video. Really helped!!❤🙏🏻
I really do need to change my heart posture and learning to trust God 100% and give it all to him and not be half-hearted. I have made so many financial bad choices and it has haunted me over the years. I needed this!
😂😂 Totally agree in 3:28 , I always think about the goal after doing a new job interview is not to get the job itself, always prepare myself for future interviews or something else ❤
This was a good word. I very much so needed this today. God is more interested in my heart and mind, my perspective, my trust, than in getting everything exactly how I want it. He is always faithful, regardless of what my plans dictate He “ought” to do. Thank you so much and God bless you!!
I have been praying on detaching, I have done it before and God sent something better. I trust He will do it again! Your points were well organized and great personal examples! Hugs ❤
I am dealing with anxiety right now, some days I'm good others I'm not. I can't help but to look for a job, I am someone who is use to working, as a matter of fact, I enjoy what I do. I am a case manager here in Atlanta and helping people brings me joy. Trusting in God while looking at my funds depleted is very scary, I have big bills that need to be paid now. I asked God to use me and I knew it would be painful but I'm ready to give up. The old me is ready to reveal herself and do things that I know will get me what I want and that's to pay my bills and to keep myself from being evicted. I don't have my own strength to depend on God I really need his help in strengthing my faith and my trust. This is a bit more challenging than I thought.
I wanted to ask you about this how can we tell the difference between God doing this to people and life just sucking and us need to take action I mean I’ve gone to medical school. I’ve become a hairstylist. I’ve done a lot of things, but I also have ADD and ASD and bipolar and somehow during Covid I took on the fact that maybe God will make it so I’ll never be financially stable the way I think and maybe if that’s what he wants. I have to listen to what he wants me to do because I thought maybe I will be able to do what he wants me to do. I just trying to wonder like a bunch of because they’re a lot of people out here like what does God want to do you want me to trust him and you don’t see any of those people with jobs like doctors, lawyers, engineers, even like dental hygienist, you know like the gas station work anything that’s like mandatory requires education or mandatory like you could even get a job at Walmart if you were disabled so I don’t know half of us on here saying this have just become disillusion and waiting for something like passively or depressed or like if it’s really God, I don’t understand and I’m in that spot right now or I’m like I don’t feel sick anymore. I feel like I need more antidepressants and I wanna make sure I don’t mess up again like if I go to school I don’t wanna mess up and I sure as heck want to stable job and income like I’m so wish I could be my sister or someone like I’m so tired of this at 50 but if the same time I’m like if God doesn’t want that it’s not gonna happen and I just need to know if it’s issues or if it’s both because if it’s good, I don’t wanna waste my time doing what I’ve always done and I want to know what he wants and friends keeping saying oh fast and pray but like it’s not God and so many other peoples lives so like what am I doing? I already have ADDASD and bipolar why why not just assume is cause I have all this crap And get more help with that crap and not assume it’s God like I don’t know. I’m really dealing with this and wondering what sources I should be listening to at this point because it’s been like of Covid since I had a job and I’m starting to get fat and crazyand bored, and I can’t do anything anymore
It’s so bad today was one of my bad days. I didn’t leave home. I’ve had so much coffee so much tea just to like try to go outside and exercise and snap myself into being in the world and I’m just like in the haze today and the only active day I could do is lay down and read about this and eat. It’s really sad and yesterday was so productive and I might could this be bipolar like in one day it’s so different or did I just screw up by being at home like I don’t think this lifestyle is healthy for me I know if it was God it would at least feel healthy and do other. Don’t know what to say. I don’t even know. I just drank coffee and I just don’t know I want. I’m starting to wonder if I’m gonna be crazy honestlyis a spirit of slumber upon my parents house like what I always feel when I come here. I didn’t feel like that three years ago but now it’s just crawl into bed and watch Netflix really bad. This can be from God. I’m just God I just wish I could help me now I really do. He knows this is not good. I’m wasting my life. Please pray for me
Dude, what if we’re crazy and it’s not God it’s just up to us and the world and we became stupid and started believing the stuff cause what why would you play some dumb guessing game you know it’s so stupid like people decide what their suited for what skills God gave them they do it if it doesn’t work out they try something else, but they’re not playing some dumb guessing game all the time God is it this oh God is it that oh Lord that you preparing me oh Lord, did you allow me to get stuff into the school? I applied to that I thought you had sent to me just so I realized I don’t wanna do it. I mean it’s almost like we’re playing insurance games with God like we’re I don’t know how to explain it, but it’s almost crazy stupidity you know, I don’t know I don’t believe makes me think that’s really what it is and it scares me And I hear nothing from Him. And scared to just read the aBible all day…. How do you think people becomes doctors or mba’s or whatever- they do the steps and do the work no? So what is up with us? Why are we delusional in thinking it works differently? Why are we delysional?
Is it bipolar or addiction or God… I had a normal day yesterday- woke up , dentist, shopping, cleaned my house, watered friends houseplants, gym, shower, dinner But then I couldn’t sleep til 3- today dragged myself up at 10, Physical Therapist’s at 11, some groceries, home and just stayed at home/ drank al the caffeine I could- even cacao/ just eating and reading and even got in car to go run or go to gym. Turned around went back and out pajamas on and eating. This is really scary- and in these phases, I don’t return calls or do anything- Just sleep and eat Anyone else get this? Sometimes I wish to God I could have my old job back- but I don’t know if that will fix this Yesteday I didn’t have my job but I was able to exercise and productive Pray for me please I just want to take sleeping pills and get knocked out now
This is my situation now. I’m used to working as well. I am a go getter, I am never one to stay stuck in bad situations if I don’t have to. Yet, I surrendered my life to God and he led me to stop working and start a business which I did. I’ve been poor for years now, depending on family and government assistance to get me by. Now I am facing eviction. It’s very hard and apart of me wants to just get a normal job and work. I just want to live a normal life.
Im glad that you mentioned Bartending. In the late 90's early 00s my Mother was a bartender and wanted to volunteer at church. The church denied her to volunteer because she was a Bartender. But, yet they would readily accepted her tithes and offerings FROM that bartending job. 😅😂 Of course we no longer attend that church. We now look back at laugh. Great video! 😅
i love this so much. going through a phase rn where i don’t have control over the outcome that i want. this REALLY checked me and reminded me to let it all go for Him. thank you for saying that He cares for us more than we care for ourselves. that is really reassuring ❤
Thank you for this sacred reminder. I have not handled some situations in a godly, trusting way but am convicted to be more mindful to seek Him to provide all I need AND be content during the wait.
I graduated from high school two years ago and have been looking for a job ever since. I have no choice but to trust God. He is the only one who truly provides for me. He is in control and He knows what He's doing, even when it doesn't feel like it. He is our Prince of Peace in the waiting. 🙌
This was such a well articulated video. So many of my thoughts and perspectives were addressed and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m currently in a wilderness season after quitting my job 9 months ago. It’s been a faith journey but I’ve learned so much about myself and God in the process. Thank you and God Bless you ❤
I’ll be honest. The events over the last several years of my life have really damaged my relationship with God. I feel like I can’t really rely on him to help me solve problems.
I am very sorry, I sincerely hope that God does not let you go even when there are doubts and despair, and that He can reach you and help you in a miraculous way
Awesome testimony and insight. I have learned this way of trusting to but unfortunately, my spouse has not, so even if I feel at ease most of the time, he does not and it can make it harder for me to navigate. I'm praying he gets that peace and trust as well. Its a life changer! Thank you for sharing, so so good! 🥰

As i listened this i wanted to thank you for sharing this. For the the first we are facing homelessness with our 9 year old son. We have served the Lord faithfully for over 14 years. Lost family, lost so much and understand that. But this is just so uncertain and a bit unsettling.y My husband lost his job then i was injured at work is where it all began. Kept drowning in debt ,do here we are not knowing what next. But trusting God just not understanding how a loving father could want this for us. But counting it all joy through it all . Praying for others who don't have Jesus and are going through this.
That is SO hard. I am sorry you are experiencing this. I have faced that a few times growing up. I cannot imagine the stress you feel. I pray God brings the family of God around to support you in this season
Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Ana Graciela Blackwelder.
My life slowed down because I knew my daughter needed me more than long work hours. She's a graduate now and her emotional well-being is improving. God always make a way. I trust in God in every area of my life. God bless everyone 🙏
Thank you so much for candor, clarity, and keeping it real! I'm 60 years old and I found a great deal of reassurance in your video today. God is good.. all the time! He knew exactly what I needed to hear . God bless you. New Sub ❤
I know the internet is just listening to me but this topic was exactly what I needed to hear. Working through a difficult situation rn and I know I will be thinking about what you said about trusting God. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much, I really needed to hear this. God's will God's way...Trust not on our own understanding..Trust GOD he's our Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. Thank you Heavenly Father for your Unconditional Love 🙏 🙏🙏
This does speak to me. I really resonate with your story. I think for me in my journey, more than anything God is pushing me to fully trust Him matter what is currently happening instead of trying to do things on my own
God does come through for me . But for the major things I have to say it’s because I begged Him for it. Incessantly. And tried my best to be obedient in thanksgiving.

How has God taught you to trust him in ANY uncertainty?
Also, P.S. sad I have to address this but I want to point out that bars and bartending is on a spectrum. There are creepy dive bars where people drink their life away on one extreme end…and there are steakhouses and wedding venues that have a bar to add to the ambience on the other. I work as an event bartender 1 day a week serving beer and wine to corporate parties at a high end steakhouse. Hope that helps with the imagination. And those concerned I’m aiding in intense addiction.
I have a question, what made you leave the church job even though you still needed work which you now are doing bartending to make money. Was it not enough money? Or taking too much of your time?
@@maryldemilo I'm doing it all the time, life is uncertain. God is certain, his word is certain, we trust his certain word in an uncertain world
Just recently, God took me through something that I had to learn that I have to look to Him ONLY (although He is growing my spiritual "family" support group around me), but it's something I can't really talk about, because it has to do with sin and could dishonor a particular person if I discuss it. I have made myself accountable to a few people.
God is good. .. He will be HERE for me, as He TOOK AWAY my "back up plan."
@@ashleybrokenchainstime vs money.
@@maryldemilo oh thanks for the clarity my mind never assumed you were on the extremes of bartending only wanted to understand your thought process in rationalizing what most of us deem “worthy” work vs. aligning with where God needs you and finding a place that can better work for the specific needs of your household. Anyway, May the Lord bless you on this path!
I really liked your response to anxiety... "Thank you anxiety for trying to keep me safe, but I'm going to lean on God" Very insightful
I’m glad you found it insightful!
That was the message in Inside Out 2 funnily enough - you should watch that movie!
That is life changing! Wow!!!
@@all4jesusall4him37 :)
Yes! That is so good!
God stripped me down to below an earthly zero. He took my mom, my husband, and my home. That was the beginning of a very intense 5 years where it just kept coming. Trust in God is all we have. There is nothing else. Lean on Him with complete and utter abandon to self 🔥🥰🔥
In a year, five years ago.
My marriage ended, my youngest, only son, died on a bicycle accident. At 17 :/
My huge birth family (previously as tight as could be, I thought) disappeared.
Am on my own.
And yes. FAIT
Makes it all okay. 😬
I accept the losses and changes.
Welcome beautiful new experiences.
Survive what “should” have destroyed me.
And Rather. 🙏
Grateful. Blessed. Thriving.
And ready for what God decides.
This is it.
This is how life is.
Everyone to carry their Cross
And if we don’t get stuck on mourning,
we can see what’s on the other side. 🙏
Beautiful how Scriptures mark the path. Life Instructions. 😊
🛐
@@lLauraLSP Good Lord.....I am so sorry to hear this. Absolutely not fair. But you have incredible resiliency and faith which is fantastic! God bless you I hope the absolute best comes your way.
That sounds similar to me. My family have died, my marriage ended, and let's not discuss my house.
I'm hanging on to God's word and promises. It's the only thing getting me through.
My family and wife thought I was crazy for trusting God’s plan. I had a toxic job with great pay. After 6 years in i prayed for a job that fits me and my heart. Later that day I was involved in a fender bender without damage to any property. I was suspended without pay for 6 months. 69 days in I was called to come back to work. I refused and now I’m allowing God to guide me even if it looks uncertain
That is true faith. God bless
Oh wow. That takes faith. bless you
May Abba Father grant you THE DESIRES OF HIS HEART FOR YOU..EVEN MORE THAN YOU COULD ASK THINK OR IMAGINE. EPH320. BLESSINGS 🔥🙏🏼❤️
You have valuable skills. With hard work wherever you go, but with self respect, you will find a way.
like the other comment said, you have skills and researching how to utilize them and/or finding another job will be easy for you. just keep that same faith and believe in the path you are walking. but remember you have a family and practical measures for a male with a family are much more imperative. in short, take care of your loved ones before faith. sending love, you will win.
Thanks. I needed this. Am homeless (live in a van, not by choice), jobless (so setting up my own service) and alone (but, ok with that). Keep praying and praising God and relying on his guidance. Very near the edge, but still have faith.
OH thats hard. I pray you find the support you need soon. There are NO Christian platitudes that can change this!
I'm also going through something similar except I live in a tent not a van. The way I see it, when you have nothing it is truly a blessing because it's giving us an opportunity to have God be our everything. At one point He was even my alarm clock when I had no phone , electronics and nothing with the correct time on it.
Prayers for strength and continued faith for all in this situation! God's got you!!!!!
Strong prayers for you asking God & Jesus to give you a home, an income, good health, and happiness. And whatever you get tithe 10%. That's also faith.
PRAYING FOR YOU❤
I used to be independent and self-sufficient. My worth came from the outside. God had me get rid of everything. I had to set my pride aside and ask for help. Learn my worth comes from God. And let go of my timeline and expectations. This path has increased my faith and trust in God and my overall relationships
It is hard. I am a pastor of a small church that is rapidly declining in numbers. There is uncertainty not only over my own precarious financial future, but also for the people, who may soon be without their church. May God bless you and your ministry.
Yes when things shift it is so hard. Bless you on your journey
When we pray for potatoes 🥔 we pick up the plow 😮
I’m lifting you and your congregation in prayer!🙏
Maybe God is trying to give you a new following , and (if you lose tht building) then a new church too. Sometimes it’s not about what’s being taken from us but what’s actually being given. Your faith needs to be bigger, esp. for a following and I know how hard that can be when God doesn’t move on our time but His. Maybe God wants to show you something in this season for a testimony to bring in a stronger following. You never know;You might need to make bones live or have fire shut up in your bones, or be after God’s heart like David, where He can lead you to a place that has been prepared for you..Point being..We may never know what God is doing but Always know tht when He blesses, it’s not just for you…Stay Encouraged ❤
You should fast. Actually maybe the church should fast🤔
*of course the whole check with your doctor thing*
I'm blessed only God knows how much I praise Him, $80k every 4weeks! I now have a good house and can now afford anything and also support my family
The miracle of God is flowing, thanks for sharing your blessings, please help others too ❤❤
God is wonderful, thanks for sharing such good news and opportunity for others
I'm genuinely curious to know how you earn that much monthly
I Thank God for Bringing Christine Evelyn Mackie brokage service into my life, I'm happy for God's grace have found me ..Amen ❤❤❤
God has used her to save so many lives including mine, could remember when I started with her back in 2023.
This is exactly the season I’m in!! It’s so awesome to see God showing me more and more women who are walking out this level of faith. I resigned from a career of 28 years last September (2023) and I have seen God show up in was I never imagined. It took FULL surrender.
Oh wow. that takes courage. I am so glad to hear you are seeing God's work. What a gift!
I just so happened to stumble across your video today and it has encouraged me. I've been living in the US for 2 years now and recently received my Employment Authorization card which allows me to work. I've applied for several jobs but unsuccessful. I've been so depressed and down in the dumps lately as I have a mortgage to pay. This has encouraged me to not give up. We serve a big God who has a plan to prosper us and not to harm us and plans to give hope and a future.
I’m so sorry that it’s been taking a long time for that. That can be really stressful.
Congratulations on receiving your work authorization. I’m still waiting for that myself, trying to be patient and find peace in the journey not being able to work. Praying the right job finds you! 🙏
Be still and know I AM GOD! Let us have solid faith in our CREATOR DAILY.
Sure
God is so good ! New seasons so come and go, i recently left a job over 100k a year and moving back home town and making a lot less but serving God more, I couldn’t be any happier. God is good !
That’s awesome 👏🏼
How exciting! Now, we know in the world there wouldn't be that response, but in the Kingdom of God we understand what promotion looks like. Also, I would lovingly call your journey an "Adventure in the Lord", am I right? When He tells me were going to go on an adventure, He really means an adventure. 😇✨🫶
Warms my heart !
There are things money can’t buy !
“God cares for you more than you care for yourself.” Love this; great reminder, perspective, and truth!
Right!?
Lord Jesus please give me strength. I seem to bear the weight of the world on my shoulders as a single mom, I often face challenges that can seem insurmountable especially with raising two children with special needs. I’m trying to balance everything but Lord I’m struggling to make ends meet, to pay bills, and to put food on the table for my children. Jesus hear my prayers and please continue to give me strength.💕❤️
Praying for and with you! Thank you for your comment!
I was once in your shoes . Working 3 jobs but kept connected with the lord. He held my hand through it all and blessed me. This is your time of growth you are where you need to be focus on him and his word. ❤
I see this same comment on a few channels.
@@rickimcfarland2269oh interesting 🧐
@@rickimcfarland2269same here. and she changes the pictures of her “two sons” to different boys each time.
he told me that he is in control of my life. HE is teaching me faith because of what is coming to the earth. its very uncomfortable but all we can do is trust becasue i have seen HIM show out. right now im 2 payments behind on my truck and have $140 in my bank. dont know how HE is going to do it but HE will. HE is going to bless us beyond what we can imagine. when we speak about faith it is going to shake people. amen
I hear you!
Amen!!!! Blessings!!!!!
I am currently over drawn any have access to £20, with a child to feed. I don’t get paid til 31st July. I feel embarrassed to ask family and friend's. Never have i been in this situation before. God will provide for my child and I. Taking it day by day.
Seasoned chickpeas are starting to become the national dish of my home. I am determined to give God glory and praise as i know things will change because i have already started to change.
I think it’s odd that it’s embarrassing to ask family for money especially when you need it. That’s one of the beauties of family to help when in need not only financially but all aspects. God is providing by giving you a mouth to ask your family. Sorry this is happening but your help is there. Love you. Be encouraged
@@davidasingleton8943 It's the embarrassment of being in this situation and my mum especially will over worry. I don't want to put that pressure on her or my brother especially. 1 is having a rough time with employers and one is nearly on the brink of divorce. The situation has strongly encouraged me to be intentional in fasting and prayer (fasting I didn't really have a choice). So far so God. My spirit man is being fed. I am realising there were things in me that needed to change ie forgiveness of my ex. Praying in tongues and interceding has been so powerful. I will definitely get through this season.
Look to see if there are summmer lunch programs for kids in your area. Any blessing boxes.
@@davidasingleton8943not everyone has family like that.
@craigfryer7167 You should look into food pantries in your area. They give free food weekly to people.
Thanks Sis! Its hard right now. I have been living in my van. While serving at church. Providing for my kids. And trying to start a business. Even with financial whoahs. But this wilderness is for my perfection. I do hate it though. I am learning that I can do better with the little money that I do have. Its hard to decide. Pay this bill or that bill? But the LORD. Is with me. Thank you so much. Your brah in Colorado. 😊
Wow, that's a powerful testimony I pray God continues to provide for you and what you need (and MORE)
This morning on my way to work I asked Father if He was keeping me so strapped so I’d throw up my hands and say here I can’t do it? Then I said to Him “I’ve done that. Many many times! How do I stop having to do it? Why can’t I just trust without stressing again and again? “
I’m trying so hard not to worry about money. But I do. I can sometimes detach, but not always. He always provides for me every thing I need.
So thank you for this. I wasn’t planning on ‘a talking to ‘ when I opened TH-cam.
I was actually coming on here to study for my realtor test in 4 days.
Please pray for me to pass both tests the 1st time. Thank you and thank you again for listening to God and putting this video out.
Thank you Father. Amen.
Yes will be praying for you! It’s an ongoing journey that’s for sure
Well God taught me by not being reliant on others and to have faith in him. I have had to let a lot of things go especially social media which was tough because I was in the midst of building my followers with music and photography. I believe God wants to build my character first and faith that no matter what he is the only person that will truly support me and while building a business it does take a lot of loss and effort but God will always make a way. He has broken me down in areas of my life where I truly needed it. I had fell into sin and now I am free from smoking weed so I am able to receive more financially because that was money taken away as well. I thank u God for Maryl message. God bless everyone
God bless thank you for sharing your story!
This testimony has answered my current battle with my life!! I just asked God to provide someone for me to talk to. Thank You Lord and thank you Maryl!!
I pray that God will provide "ridiculous resources" for you!
God blessed you!
How wonderful
“Becoming indifferent to the outcome of things” that’s huge for me!
Churches never talk about finances. (Unless they are prosperity which isn’t realistic) thank you for teaching on this subject.❤
I find that good teaching on finances are rare as well! Im glad it resonates
Trusting God for a home of my own ....knowing its in Gods time and will...
Aw yes
This message was right on point for me. I lost a really great position at my job with great income and I feel I’ve been struggling since and I got another position at my same company but I was in shock because of the pay cut. So I kept applying for second jobs and stressing like what am I to do. But nothing has come through, none of the part time jobs I applied for contacted me back. And I’m watching this like I have to stop panic applying. I’ve been able to cover my bills, take care of myself and my children and haven’t been without a meal yet. So it’s like God has been covering me this whole time and I just need to trust him completely that all will work out according to his will
Thanks for sharing!
I so needed this!. I do not have the $ to pay my bills. I love kids and make basically minimum wage, though I have an Associates and extra schooling and trainings. I have poverty mindset. I have a lot of fear. I want to tithe, yet I can barely survive. Yes, I am on foodstamps and medical. I have to.
Same here
Wow did God ever use you today. I bought a house on my own, then the bottom fell out of my business, then my Mom fell, then my pet died. You covered Everything. I look forward to your post. I just subscribed. Thank you 🙏 🎉❤
Oh wow 😮 thank you for sharing your story that’s hard!
Ive always prayed or had the thought, "lord give me the grace to trust you more, give me the grace to stop worrying about everything........"
Grace! Yes 🙌
I listened to the voice of the Lord. Left that church. Less Stress! Less Anxiety. New Supportive PeopleI I I Will Trust in You Lord Always
Your video came up in my algorithm today and it definitely resonated with me! Current season resonated! Thank you for your obedience and being willing to share hard things that I feel like people are less likely to talk about. Keep going! I had so many takeaways.
Hey! This resonates with me on so many levels. I have a 70hr per week toxic job and I have been trusting God to show me the next steps. May God bless you. This is so helpful
Great. Thank you. "An unexamined life is not worth living." - Socrates. That's what came to mind listening to you.
Love that!
God’s timing is spot on. Your video came up this morning. I’m on vacation, in and air bnb with a nasty cold. Scrapping for control when at my age (66) I should know better. I’d prefer to feel better and do all the fun stuff, but maybe God wants me to spend time with Him. My brother doesn’t need to entertain me 24/7 and I don’t need to be doing EVERYTHING on my “want to” list. Love how God can take a financial message and use it in a completely different way to meet my needs.
With regards to finances I’m being led to look at three things in a different light:
Commercialism
Materialism
Consumerism
All equal idolatry
You might want to add them in to your studies. (Or not)
Thanks for your transparency
Nana Cherry
Thank you Nana Cherry! I appreciate your comment. Its so hard to not be in control I FEEL that. Those 3 things are great. there are so many lessons. We have a lifetime to learn and be loved by God.
I am going through the same challenge right now, my business has closed down after 15 years and I have to trust that He may use totally different ways to supply my needs and desires financially, but it is still not nice to go through
Wow! Yeah it is NOT fun to go through. Thankfully this is not forever. but still not fun at all.
This is such a great video! I’m glad I found it. It has taken me years to trust GOD especially with my finances. I have always been one to act on my own when the situation seem bleak. I hasn’t been until these last 4 years that I have learn to let go. I have struggle so hard to hear the Holy Spirit! I failed the last test though, his grace and mercy corrected my path. Now, I find myself in the same situation again except I keep hear in my head “Trust GOD”. I feel that I’m so close to a blessing that will change my life. Before, I would have reacted as the world does now, the LORD is doing a New Thing in me. It has been giving me his peace calmness while I wait. I’m so thankful that he is changing me. I pray for all of you here who needs a blessing today.🙏
God bless thank you for sharing your story!
Watching from Czechia but im from Zambia 🇿🇲, thank you for your timely message, i thank God for his favour upon me ever since I came here. He's totally sustained my finances throuought this time ive been here and my life in general, I pray and know that he will continue to sustain me. I know that he will sustain you too.
Hello! 👋🏼 wonderful to connect across the world. Amen!
this really spoke to me and appeared at the perfect timing. god has really been with me this whole time but i've just been blind to it and ignored it. have had a lot of things happen to/for me lately that i can only attribute to Him. to the extent that it is impossible for me to deny his presence in my life anymore.
I am so glad to hear!
Hello sis in Christ wow this video was SUCH A HUGE HUGE BLESSING. I WASNT EVEN LOOKING FOR THIS the Lord sent this to me
Thank you woman of God for being obedient and transparent
I don't know you but
I love you sis ❤️
And Lord willing I'll be back for your next one
I am so glad to hear!
One thing I had to realize that trusting God in this way really is a season. It was really hard transitioning out of this season and into one where God told me to strive towards my desires with his guidance.
Thanks! Very practical and encouraging. God loves to take care of His children.
Yes! Thank you! 🙏🏼
So good...thanks for sharing!! Yeah...God been showing me personally that He has me...regardless of wht comes!!! Just a few weeks ago...the place I was working closed the doors and shut down...on my last day leaving there...as I was driving out of the parking lot...someone called me about another work opportunity ...and I was employed with better work with great benefits...and a boss who is very understanding and respectful of ppls needs!!! God is good
Oh wow thanks for sharing that!
I love to praise him... I am learning to trust him.
Amen!
This is me! I was a manager in my job but stressed and wanted more time with my kids. After the pandemic my, I was demoted to a OPS position and my husband lost his job. It was very tough. But in that God kept us! I now don’t have the same responsibilities in my job so less stress and my husband got a new job.
Im still learning to lean on Him, but thankfully I’m not where I used to be❤
Thank you for sharing. that is hard! Glad that you are in a new season!
Moments after a financial blessing Father brought this video to my attention. I had been praying for help to feed my guinea pigs. I too have been on this journey of depending on Father as my Source and Father's consistent Word for me has been "Wait." I remembered Joel Osteen telling a story about how his dad prayed for two cows, but instead of waiting on the Lord, he moved out of impatience, and God had told him that he could have had two cows. So as I was praying to Father for help the other day, I looked down and saw my sisters 2 cow slippers. Today, Father gave my guinea pigs double food :) I know it's not really about the food and the cows, but truly having faith in Him. He will provide for us in the wildnerness in His perfect way. What He's truly asking for is our heart Thank you for sharing your story and giving me more courage to share mine!
Thanks for sharing your story
this video is 23 minutes long. and literally. you outline my understanding perfectly. really happy to see other people are having the same experience and understanding their faith in the same way. God bless you.
Yes! Thank you!
I’ve never seen any of your videos, my heart and head are weary, weak and defeated. Just when I’m convinced God doesn’t care, he has forsaken me and is apparently enjoying watching my nonstop troubles, he puts this kind of message in front of me !!!
God is faithful according to HIS will, not MINE !!!
Praise God in all that we face 🙏
Oh wow
Thank you. I'm in that season now. I'm so worried and anxious I can't even hear god some days.
Based on my algorithm - there wasn’t any reason your page should have shown up. And yet it did- because of The Holy I Am!!! This is exactly what I needed!
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Thank you for being the vessel to which this message was delivered to me ❤
Boy, I have a story, but I won't go into it. Your words are really hard for people today, but they ring true.
I bet! Thank you!
Very true
I left my teaching job at the end of the school year in May. Now what? I taught for 20 years. I’m now 72 years old. I still want to work because there are things I would still like to do. And I’m a little bored, but on the positive side, my home is really clean! I needed to see this message. I’m not desperate. I do have some money. I find myself at a standstill-paralyzed. Maybe God wants me to take a little time to regroup and stay open to new things. I’ve worked all my life. I’m going back to watch your video again-I needed this message.
Yes this: standstill, paralysed but my home is 😂clean. It is really strange and nothing seems to open up, whenever I try and look for some way to show up, I am thrown back to the same standstill.
God has taken me on quite the journey to gain my trust. I used to think being content meant settling for less but I really connected with your explanation. In this season God has removed a partner I thought I would marry and my business went from flourishing to almost shuttering completely. Each step of the way God has shown me that He is enough for me and while I may not be traveling or living the glamorous life I have enough. And yes I have some past due bills but so far everything important has always been paid for. It is hard to let go but there is a certain peace and freedom to be found when I let God be God in my life that is way better than me trying to control situations that were never in my control in the first place. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you for sharing your story!
This is my confirmation, I left my job in January hoping and trusting the Lord will open a door that aligns in my true calling, it still didnt happen, but I know now that I should wait on him🙏
Oh wow! 😮
Thank you for sharing this literally entering into this season of my life. Key thing I took from your video is sometimes the suffering is really for our good and he loves us so much they he will make us walk through something to bring us closer to him!
What a good take away~ Bless you!
🙏🏽Thank you Sistar 💫, this was a confirmation for my soul, as I tread the journey of beINg content with the current journey of releasing who I was as a 6 figure earner, to who I am becomINg, as I reply from my daughters couch that has been my bed for the last 30 days. EverythINg that you shared has blessed me and made me certaIN that although it doesn’t look like what I imagined 52 would be, death is part of rebirth. I surrender. Ashe.
Thank You! The timing of this video popping up for me is incredible! ❤️
Wonderful
We are trusting God to provide for the homeless families, leper colonies and the beggars we serve here in India.❤ -with no financial stability or guarantee for how much will come in every month. The Lord is faithful!!
Oh wow, that takes faith.
This definitely resonated with me. I was feeling so low about my finances. Feeling like I am not enough. I was reading the idea of getting a second job b/c I don't want to be exhausted and dislike what I'm doing. I was looking for something to just help me get centered while I work on my budget. After listening and taking notes, I feel relaxed and understood. It was easier for me to shift from needing to be certain about an outcome and just surrender and trust. Thank you for such a great and needed reminder.
Oh wow...more relaxed and understood is a wonderful place to be. I find making decisions from that place of connectedness with self and God is so much better (with the outcomes too)
Thanks for sharing ❤it really means a lot. I’m going through financial hardship because I quit my job due to a toxic work environment. I don’t regret it, but I must admit it has been hard. God has been faithful. ❤ just today after 5 months, I received a job offer slightly over minimum wage but I am content and grateful, I feel humbled and thankful 😌 sometimes things may not go my way but God is bringing me closer to Himself💕💕Amen!
This blessed my whole soul! I am stressing about resigning from my job to attend school full time
Oh that’s hard! I’ve been there. Praying you get the confirmation from God that you need
I am doing the same! I’ll pray for you!
Watch out. Discern. Some schools talk all the fine-sounding talk about how they are there to equip you, but behind it all they are fundamentally narcissistic institutions that want your money. Very rarely, if ever, will the school have the courage or integrity to say this.
@@fengariii praying for you as well!
@@maryldemilo thank you!🙏🏾
WOW! Execellent! Once I lost everything! Best thing ever. What people don’t realize is we are in a constant state of fearing that. Once that happens you realize no big deal. You get ride of a lot of junk you don’t need that you have been worrying about how to keep or how to move it. This is stuff you have dragged with you for years from your past. Finally I was able to create the life that I really wanted and not the life I was born into. I earned a lot more money because I was mentally free!
What I did from that experience was to think about what I call “memory stones” mentioned in the Bible. Markers that God told his people to place to remember all he has done for us! I started a memory book. I bought the largest Hallmark picture album I could find and started to fill it with all the wonderful things God had provided for me in miraculous ways. It was an awesome project and I love reviewing it every once in a while as a reminder of God’s amazing provision!
Sometimes it feels like delusion. I put my trust in Yah and quit some pretty good jobs with great benefits, to start a business that has been struggling to say the least since starting in 2023. Everyone thinks I’m nuts for the choices I made. I was convinced that because The Most High gave me the direction, I would be successful right away. Either way, I’m going to believe the promise until my last breath. I can’t go back anyway, so I gots to see it through 😅. Shalom.
Amen may God bless your ventures brother ❤
Shalom to you! Yes God directs our step
The journey is part of our evolution. I did something similar and it’s a hard slog at times but I wouldn’t change it because the lessons learnt have been incredible.
I love Paul in the bible he melts my heart!
Yes 🙌
That’s amazing how you mentioned it may just be God inviting me to apply for the job because I did twice and first time I didn’t have a resume ready but the next time I did I ended up getting the job! However, I still have bad anxiety & scared if I made the right decision or not. It’s been better now and hope it stays like it is because it’s definitely different going from 1st to 3rd shift less toxic, drama, gossip, more/easy money. I need to focus now more time on God since that shift allows me way more free time on the job. ❤
Totally! I still to this day add things to what God says and have to be honest with my assumptions and also be willing to make decisions even if i don't hear anything.
Self awareness and seeing Gods blessings in the lows and high times truly are a gift from God. 💜💙
Totally!
I love this approach to the relationship. Awesome video.
:)
I must say this message is divinely right on time. Everything that was said is exactly what thoughts/questions I have been having and what I needed to hear. I’ve always been pretty good about trusting Source and Gods timing but this certainly reinforced it. Thank you truly.
Oh I’m so glad
Hey Friend!!! Recently, I've been urged to let go myself in the sense of letting go of my ego. Thinking I know what is best for me even though God knows what's best for myself. Trust the Lord and tell the Lord what you want in life and God will provide. Catholic prayers and ahem. other means and ways to communicate with the divine are perfect guides to detach and let the Lord take over. The old adage. "take things day by day" is absolutely true and the more you trust in the divine, things will always work out for those. Have a great weekend!!! Sorry for the long comment but you're doing great things because I see the signs!!! Blessed Be. :)
Thank you for this comment!
I’m so grateful that I decided to watch and listen to this. I’m reminded of Paul, of Job, and then there’s Jesus. 😊 All praised God no matter the circumstances. And it’s very tempting, I’m finding my doing it right now, to think “oh I get it! Ok, I get it and so now I really trust You, so you’ll make it all ok!” No. Yes but no. Not *my* version of ok, His version, which I must trust is so much better than I can conceive of. Use the tools we have, let Him make what He will. Thank you for making this video. Really helped!!❤🙏🏻
Oh great!
Thank you.. I feel less alone in this season. Praying & trusting in faith.. God bless you!!!😇🙏❤️
Same here ❤
I am SO glad to hear. The trinity is with YOU.
:)
I really do need to change my heart posture and learning to trust God 100% and give it all to him and not be half-hearted. I have made so many financial bad choices and it has haunted me over the years. I needed this!
😂😂 Totally agree in 3:28 , I always think about the goal after doing a new job interview is not to get the job itself, always prepare myself for future interviews or something else ❤
right!? :)
This was a good word. I very much so needed this today. God is more interested in my heart and mind, my perspective, my trust, than in getting everything exactly how I want it. He is always faithful, regardless of what my plans dictate He “ought” to do. Thank you so much and God bless you!!
Well said!
This video hit home! Thanks for sharing!❤
I’m so glad!
thank you God for teaching me how to be faithful and to trust you more.
You’re so welcome
Pray the surrender novena..."Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything."
It will bring you peace.
:) beautiful prayer
I have been praying on detaching, I have done it before and God sent something better. I trust He will do it again! Your points were well organized and great personal examples! Hugs ❤
Thanks for sharing!! Oh good!😅
I am dealing with anxiety right now, some days I'm good others I'm not. I can't help but to look for a job, I am someone who is use to working, as a matter of fact, I enjoy what I do. I am a case manager here in Atlanta and helping people brings me joy. Trusting in God while looking at my funds depleted is very scary, I have big bills that need to be paid now. I asked God to use me and I knew it would be painful but I'm ready to give up. The old me is ready to reveal herself and do things that I know will get me what I want and that's to pay my bills and to keep myself from being evicted. I don't have my own strength to depend on God I really need his help in strengthing my faith and my trust. This is a bit more challenging than I thought.
I wanted to ask you about this how can we tell the difference between God doing this to people and life just sucking and us need to take action I mean I’ve gone to medical school. I’ve become a hairstylist. I’ve done a lot of things, but I also have ADD and ASD and bipolar and somehow during Covid I took on the fact that maybe God will make it so I’ll never be financially stable the way I think and maybe if that’s what he wants. I have to listen to what he wants me to do because I thought maybe I will be able to do what he wants me to do. I just trying to wonder like a bunch of because they’re a lot of people out here like what does God want to do you want me to trust him and you don’t see any of those people with jobs like doctors, lawyers, engineers, even like dental hygienist, you know like the gas station work anything that’s like mandatory requires education or mandatory like you could even get a job at Walmart if you were disabled so I don’t know half of us on here saying this have just become disillusion and waiting for something like passively or depressed or like if it’s really God, I don’t understand and I’m in that spot right now or I’m like I don’t feel sick anymore. I feel like I need more antidepressants and I wanna make sure I don’t mess up again like if I go to school I don’t wanna mess up and I sure as heck want to stable job and income like I’m so wish I could be my sister or someone like I’m so tired of this at 50 but if the same time I’m like if God doesn’t want that it’s not gonna happen and I just need to know if it’s issues or if it’s both because if it’s good, I don’t wanna waste my time doing what I’ve always done and I want to know what he wants and friends keeping saying oh fast and pray but like it’s not God and so many other peoples lives so like what am I doing? I already have ADDASD and bipolar why why not just assume is cause I have all this crap And get more help with that crap and not assume it’s God like I don’t know. I’m really dealing with this and wondering what sources I should be listening to at this point because it’s been like of Covid since I had a job and I’m starting to get fat and crazyand bored, and I can’t do anything anymore
It’s so bad today was one of my bad days. I didn’t leave home. I’ve had so much coffee so much tea just to like try to go outside and exercise and snap myself into being in the world and I’m just like in the haze today and the only active day I could do is lay down and read about this and eat. It’s really sad and yesterday was so productive and I might could this be bipolar like in one day it’s so different or did I just screw up by being at home like I don’t think this lifestyle is healthy for me I know if it was God it would at least feel healthy and do other. Don’t know what to say. I don’t even know. I just drank coffee and I just don’t know I want. I’m starting to wonder if I’m gonna be crazy honestlyis a spirit of slumber upon my parents house like what I always feel when I come here. I didn’t feel like that three years ago but now it’s just crawl into bed and watch Netflix really bad. This can be from God. I’m just God I just wish I could help me now I really do. He knows this is not good. I’m wasting my life. Please pray for me
Dude, what if we’re crazy and it’s not God it’s just up to us and the world and we became stupid and started believing the stuff cause what why would you play some dumb guessing game you know it’s so stupid like people decide what their suited for what skills God gave them they do it if it doesn’t work out they try something else, but they’re not playing some dumb guessing game all the time God is it this oh God is it that oh Lord that you preparing me oh Lord, did you allow me to get stuff into the school? I applied to that I thought you had sent to me just so I realized I don’t wanna do it. I mean it’s almost like we’re playing insurance games with God like we’re I don’t know how to explain it, but it’s almost crazy stupidity you know, I don’t know I don’t believe makes me think that’s really what it is and it scares me
And I hear nothing from Him. And scared to just read the aBible all day….
How do you think people becomes doctors or mba’s or whatever- they do the steps and do the work no? So what is up with us? Why are we delusional in thinking it works differently?
Why are we delysional?
Is it bipolar or addiction or God… I had a normal day yesterday- woke up , dentist, shopping, cleaned my house, watered friends houseplants, gym, shower, dinner
But then I couldn’t sleep til 3- today dragged myself up at 10, Physical Therapist’s at 11, some groceries, home and just stayed at home/ drank al the caffeine I could- even cacao/ just eating and reading and even got in car to go run or go to gym. Turned around went back and out pajamas on and eating.
This is really scary- and in these phases, I don’t return calls or do anything- Just sleep and eat
Anyone else get this?
Sometimes I wish to God I could have my old job back- but I don’t know if that will fix this
Yesteday I didn’t have my job but I was able to exercise and productive
Pray for me please I just want to take sleeping pills and get knocked out now
This is my situation now. I’m used to working as well. I am a go getter, I am never one to stay stuck in bad situations if I don’t have to. Yet, I surrendered my life to God and he led me to stop working and start a business which I did. I’ve been poor for years now, depending on family and government assistance to get me by. Now I am facing eviction. It’s very hard and apart of me wants to just get a normal job and work. I just want to live a normal life.
This is good practical doctrine, application, and explanation of God's will and plan.
Nice 👍🏼
Im glad that you mentioned Bartending. In the late 90's early 00s my Mother was a bartender and wanted to volunteer at church. The church denied her to volunteer because she was a Bartender. But, yet they would readily accepted her tithes and offerings FROM that bartending job. 😅😂 Of course we no longer attend that church. We now look back at laugh. Great video! 😅
What?! That’s crazy! I’m glad you’re at a different church. ⛪️ ya different denominations have strong stances on some odd things
i love this so much. going through a phase rn where i don’t have control over the outcome that i want. this REALLY checked me and reminded me to let it all go for Him. thank you for saying that He cares for us more than we care for ourselves. that is really reassuring ❤
Very profound ideas in this video. Thank you for sharing
You’re welcome! ☺️
I wholeheartedly agree with this message, learning to be content no matter the situation is an invaluable virtue.
God is faithful through it all.
Thank you for your comment!
Thank you for this sacred reminder. I have not handled some situations in a godly, trusting way but am convicted to be more mindful to seek Him to provide all I need AND be content during the wait.
I graduated from high school two years ago and have been looking for a job ever since. I have no choice but to trust God. He is the only one who truly provides for me. He is in control and He knows what He's doing, even when it doesn't feel like it. He is our Prince of Peace in the waiting. 🙌
Oh wow! I pray you find one and that it is the right fit.
This was such a well articulated video. So many of my thoughts and perspectives were addressed and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m currently in a wilderness season after quitting my job 9 months ago. It’s been a faith journey but I’ve learned so much about myself and God in the process. Thank you and God Bless you ❤
Oh wow! I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
I’ll be honest. The events over the last several years of my life have really damaged my relationship with God. I feel like I can’t really rely on him to help me solve problems.
I am very sorry, I sincerely hope that God does not let you go even when there are doubts and despair, and that He can reach you and help you in a miraculous way
I unfortunately feel the same. I hope things get better for you.
I am so encouraged by these kind responses. Yes I pray that the family of God comes around you and supports you in this time.
Awesome testimony and insight. I have learned this way of trusting to but unfortunately, my spouse has not, so even if I feel at ease most of the time, he does not and it can make it harder for me to navigate. I'm praying he gets that peace and trust as well. Its a life changer! Thank you for sharing, so so good! 🥰
It Can't.
Be right, you working in a bar?You've got drunken people. You will have guys chatting you up all the time. It's.
Not really spiritual is it?
Go outside
Everything is spiritual
@@kilaa3417 Yes Kila, spiritually good or bad that is spiritually bad (1 Corinthians 15:33 KJV
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.) (this means bad company has a bad effect on someone))
Regards
@@dave22240 "evil communications" because she works in a bar, but Jesus would have probably befriended her. Peace
Not really. That s big assumption to make.
After surviving so many trials, I'm almost immune to problems thru God.
I am so sorry to hear that!
As i listened this i wanted to thank you for sharing this. For the the first we are facing homelessness with our 9 year old son. We have served the Lord faithfully for over 14 years. Lost family, lost so much and understand that. But this is just so uncertain and a bit unsettling.y
My husband lost his job then i was injured at work is where it all began. Kept drowning in debt ,do here we are not knowing what next. But trusting God just not understanding how a loving father could want this for us. But counting it all joy through it all . Praying for others who don't have Jesus and are going through this.
That is SO hard. I am sorry you are experiencing this. I have faced that a few times growing up. I cannot imagine the stress you feel. I pray God brings the family of God around to support you in this season
Hallelujah!!! I’m favored and blessed with $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and also support the work of God and the church.
Oh really? Tell me more!
This is what Ana Graciela Blackwelder does, she has changed my life.
After raising up to 60k trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the US and also paid for my son’s (Oscar) surgery. Glory to God.shalom.
I know Ana Graciela Blackwelder, and I have also had success...
Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Ana Graciela Blackwelder.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭thank you! All your words, ALL OF THEM were God speaking to me, bc all of them are what Im right now.
:)
My life slowed down because I knew my daughter needed me more than long work hours. She's a graduate now and her emotional well-being is improving. God always make a way. I trust in God in every area of my life. God bless everyone 🙏
Thank you so much for candor, clarity, and keeping it real! I'm 60 years old and I found a great deal of reassurance in your video today. God is good.. all the time! He knew exactly what I needed to hear . God bless you.
New Sub ❤
You are so welcome! I am glad!
Thank you for posting this. It’s true that you don’t need to be reckless and irresponsible with finances, but don’t worry and trust in God.
:) you’re welcome
I know the internet is just listening to me but this topic was exactly what I needed to hear. Working through a difficult situation rn and I know I will be thinking about what you said about trusting God. Thank you 🙏
It was exactly what I needed to hear today. God put you here for me to hear this. Thank you for your words!
Oh I’m so glad 🙂 I pray God continues to reveal his goodness to you!
Thank you so much, I really needed to hear this. God's will God's way...Trust not on our own understanding..Trust GOD he's our Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. Thank you Heavenly Father for your Unconditional Love 🙏 🙏🙏
Aw yes!
This does speak to me. I really resonate with your story. I think for me in my journey, more than anything God is pushing me to fully trust Him matter what is currently happening instead of trying to do things on my own
I’m so glad it does
God does come through for me . But for the major things I have to say it’s because I begged Him for it. Incessantly. And tried my best to be obedient in thanksgiving.
Thanks for sharing
This really ministered to me in this time when I need it! God bless
OH I am so glad to hear!
