I’m so sad that women like you are older than me. I struggle to find friendships at 32 going on to 33 of women who are Christians, decide to put their family first and homeschool or stay at home, don’t try to “have it all” and wait until the window opens up to follow our passions responsibly not selfishly. I wish so much, that I would have friends like you, I don’t care if they’re older( better for me) because I can learn from them. I’m often the wisest friend in my groups and that doesn’t allow me to grow because when I have questions no one can answer them. 😢 This was a great talk.
Hey Friend ! I wanted to watch this before I replied. I’m 34 years old I grew up thinking I had to be surrounded by friends and I was, until after High school when I dedicated my life to Christ, I looked back and noticed all of the friends (most) were distractions and never truly knew the true me. They knew the broken disobedient me and they were content with that me, I wasn’t. I let go of those friendships that were harmful and toxic. I appreciated the ones who weren’t bad but I realized we were only meant to be distant friends/ acquaintances. And as I grew closer to God I held on to the words “Show your self friendly” and you will find good friends. I have them now. Another word of wisdom from my Grandfather, is “In life you only need about 1 or 2 GOOD friends). God knows you have this desire. Trust him with it. Thank him in advance for your new friends. 🎉🙌🏾
What did it look like when my kids were smaller? Hiding in the bathroom. 🙌🏾😅 Yup! Or the bedroom closet! AND, it's your chuckles [after you say something]. for me 😊
This blessed me, thank you! I'm being stretched...but strengthened. Gave up striving two weeks ago, when I resigned from my job without having another one in place. "Faith without works is dead." I am ready to serve!
❤ oh you blessed me my amazing sister I agree, I don’t want waist more time & God is leading me to stop striving and trust Him and His presence that He loves me even in the silence and the wait He is working on freeing me & I’m happier 😊by His Grace I saw a difference today while I was was with my mom and sister I was happy and positive loving God confessing Him and loving them and helping God took me so far just in this year! Hw is jumping me with mercy and Grace more than ever and His hands blessings everything & I was doing what you said exploring and to know myself 🙏 Thank you & God bless you ❤
I have listened to this message intently. Paused it several times to take notes. Now to apply it to my life. I have been struggling for months now. I had journaled last night to the Lord, "Holy Spirit, I ask You to refill me and grow me in the Lord." I think I have listened to this message before, because the title spoke to me. BUT THIS MORNING, it has been LIFE to me; DIRECTION. After I wrote it all down, I took a deep breath. Wow.... I needed this wisdom and direction to "course correct". Now it is the walking it out and applying it. I had been doing some of it, so I was hearing Him and He was leading me. *But this helps me to put it all together.* Halleujah and Amen!
You are authentic, relatable, lovable. Your words cause me to stop and listen. love your honesty at the end. May the Lord keep using you. I know your mom is proud. ❤
Just watched this...thank you so so much loved this sharing..."know your creator who knew what you were to become"absolutely beautiful...less striving more stretching...
This was a good word at a great time. I have not heard you before but a friend sent this and I listened. I knew when I saw you had that good water on your table you had wisdom 😂😂! Thanks for a word that I can apply. I will be sharing with friends as well.
Interestingly, I recently saw the word striving and seemed offended....I changed to I'm doing, I'm getting things done, and acknowledging that I'm learning as I go, it's so amazing. I believe I can hear the Heavenly host more...it's like a whisper. I'm laying thinking what can I do to continue to grow even more.....and I'm dreaming big.
This entire message came for my life and future lol God is so good. Your definitely a big sister. We appreciate you Chrystal ♥️ This is what I learned and applied today : Practicing solitude to hear from the Lord. I gave myself space to lessen competing distractions around me to write today about my experience with grief. Through multiple tears fell, something actually came out🙏. Im actually surprised and fell so much better. God Bless you Sister. Thank you for your time and energy in supporting us sisters♥️
Chrystal, I recently attended “ABIDE” and discovered YOU! My husband and I admire and follow your father, Tony Evans, and I just had no idea that you were out there teaching the same great lessons! A friend and I are planning on going to Waxahachie to see you in September. I love your advice I love your life strategy. Thank you so much for all of your wisdom.
Chrystal, this was so good, I've listened to it twice in 24 hours and I'd heard it Monday before it was edited! Such wisdom and practicality! Thanks again! Monet
That's good! I've been striving for a while, trying to figure things out! But God is strengthening me. I feel like God is stretching me now and always been trying to do so. I'm just finally open to it now. I'm being stretched!
I asked I want to know the meaning of what I do. I don't want to let a day go in vain. Strengthening or stretching in His will! That was it for me! Thank you & God bless you. And to think I clicked "randomly". There was meaning!
Thank you for this message. I had to watch twice, 1st time I listened, the 2nd time I listened and took notes. I needed to hear this. May God continue to use you as His vessel.
Beautiful video it really blessed me, and right on time 🤗. It's amazing how GOD use his children for his children for his will for their lives ❣️. Thank you so much 💓, I truly appreciate it 🌻.
Loved this so much! When the whole world is screaming "You're not striving enough!!" It actually is being stretched and not out of capacity but in God's will and purpose for you. I love this so much! Thank you Chrystal
So good Chrystal. Thank you. That part about meditation...God has been teaching me about meditation for the past year and has given me content to create for the body of Christ. Stretching. Amen
Mrs. Hurst, you don't know how this freed me. It's like God was confirming what I have felt he has been telling me. I have lots of fear about if I am hearing God correctly or not. Thank you!
I’m starting to watch your shows. You and your sister are helping me grow in God he’s truly using you all as vessels. Thank you! I’m going to put the info in this video to work. Thank you again
Whew.....I watched this and then had to run it back immediately. This message blessed my whole heart. I am coming out of my striving season and entering my stretching season. Thank you for breaking this down for me 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much for sharing! This was an on time Word. Because that's what I've been asking God to reveal to me, especially as my circumstances have not changed yet.
Praise God, just what I needed on my lunch. Striving or stretching...I felt that I was striving and when I became overwhelmed, I pulled up the breaks and said, something has to change. Now I'm working moving towards stretching, letting go of things that I don't need to strive for. Thank you so much dear for being a source of encouragement and enlightenment.

Good Morning Lady Chrystal, Thank you for Sharing words of Wisdom. I listened, intently to this podcast message and it resonated in my spirit. Keep up the Good work, All the best, Peace And Blessing 🙏
Crystal! This video is amazing. One of my coaching clients shared it with me, and I’m glad she did! It’s one that I’ll watch over and over. I can’t wait to watch your video on intuition. Hopefully I’ll see you in October for the retreat!
Good stuff Chrissy...some of us are lost in between there not sure...but now I know... Thank you sis for encouraging us every other time...God bless you...!!!
Hi Chrystal..have you and your family done a talk on how to make end of life decisions from a Christian perspective. If so pls can you share a link to the talk. If not, can you pls consider doing one. I've read Divine Disruption book but could use a deeper dive on this specific area..thx much
I love your sister podcast my name is Camille pancham always following you my name is Camille punch your mom is following you online and on my laptop and on my phone my name is Camille punch God bless you keep up the good work God bless you
Striving is negative. Stretching and Serving are positive. They are not mutually inckusive. Like wheat we can sepaate striving out of abundance of stretching.
Jesus didn't (doesn't) charge money to be a member of His "inner circle." Those who do charge for that are like Judas (who robbed Jesus and the other disciples as the treasurer).
I hear you. But don't forget that in addition to sharing the gospel and discipling His "inner circle", Jesus was a carpenter. In other words, He did have a way of earning a living. So did Paul (tentmaker) who is considered the most prolific writer of the New Testament. The gospel is free. Producing video content is not. The Inner Circle I speak of in the video is not the only one I have, however it is the only one I charge for. I assure you that the gospel is engaged and discipleship is experienced in those circles, particularly in the circle of people I walk with, minister to, or personally know and disciple. Questions are welcome here. Accusations are not. Blessings to you.
I’m so sad that women like you are older than me. I struggle to find friendships at 32 going on to 33 of women who are Christians, decide to put their family first and homeschool or stay at home, don’t try to “have it all” and wait until the window opens up to follow our passions responsibly not selfishly.

Can relate.
I definitely can relate. Would love prayer in this area as well!
I definitely am in the same boat
You took the word out of my mouth! Can definitely relate .
