84. Testimony | Military Mandates, Vaccine Injury & God’s Protection: How I Chose Faith Over Fear


Listen Later

When your body breaks down and the world tells you to “just trust the system,” what do you do? In this testimony episode, I share a deeply personal chapter of my journey — one that began long before COVID, mandates, or public conversations about medical freedom ever entered our lives. In 2018, while serving in the military and preparing for deployment, I experienced a vaccine injury that sent my health spiraling and left me searching for answers, hope, and healing.

What felt at first like a devastating loss of control became the doorway to discernment, faith-strengthening revelation, and a complete shift in how I understood the incredible way God designed the human body to heal. I talk about the months of debilitating symptoms, the fear of speaking up so close to retirement, the night-and-day transformation I experienced as I pursued natural healing, and the unexpected clarity God gave me about trusting Him above institutions, titles, and pressure.

This is not a political episode and there is no judgment for anyone who made a different decision in the pandemic. We all navigated an incredibly intense and confusing time, and many felt they had no other choice. My intention is not to divide — but to encourage. To remind you that God prepares His daughters long before we realize we’ll need strength for the journey. To show you what it looked like to stand firm during military vaccine mandates, to choose faith over fear, and to witness God protect and provide in ways only He can.

If you have ever questioned your health journey, walked through unexplained symptoms, felt dismissed or unheard in the medical system, or wrestled with fear around making the “right” decision for your body or your family, this conversation will meet you there. This testimony is rooted in compassion, obedience, and the unwavering truth that God did not make a mistake when He created our bodies. They are resilient, intentional, and capable of healing.

My hope is that this episode strengthens your discernment, deepens your trust in God's leading, and reminds you that even in moments of uncertainty or pressure, you are never walking alone. God goes before you. He equips you. He heals. And He honors obedience, even when the world doesn’t understand it.
