Have you ever wondered, “What if I had just trusted God and taken the step?”

In this episode of Healing in His Hands, I’m sharing a powerful devotion from John 10:10 that challenged me to think about the dangers of living in fear instead of faith. So often, we stay where it’s comfortable because the unknown feels scary.. but what if the abundant life God has for us is waiting on the other side of our obedience?

I open up about my own journey of leaving everything familiar behind and moving to Humboldt County. It wasn’t easy, and it certainly wasn’t comfortable, but I knew God was calling me to take that step. Looking back now, I can see His hand in every detail and the countless ways He has blessed me because I chose obedience over fear.

If God has been nudging you toward something—a move, a ministry, a new opportunity, a relationship, or simply a deeper level of trust—this episode is for you.

Don’t let fear write your story. Walk in faith and see what God can do.

Scripture: John 10:10, Deuteronomy 31:8

In this episode of Healing in His Hands, we walk through Judges 11:29–36 and unpack the weight of our words when we pray. Sometimes we ask God to “use us” without fully understanding what that may require, what it may cost, or how deeply He may stretch us in the process.

I share personal experiences of surrendering myself to God as His vessel, while also realizing that obedience and purpose can come with unexpected lessons, heartbreak, refinement, and growth. This episode is a reminder that God hears us, sees our hearts, and still moves with grace. Even when we pray from a place of limited understanding.

If you’ve ever prayed bold prayers, struggled with the outcome of obedience, or wrestled with trusting God through the process, this conversation is for you.

Scripture: Judges 11:29–36

Some days God speaks through His Word… and some days He speaks through people.

In this episode of Healing in His Hands, I share the unexpected encounters I had throughout my day. The moments where God used others to pour back into me, encourage me, and remind me of the calling He has placed on my life.

As someone who often pours into others, this episode is a reminder that God sees the ones who serve, encourage, and carry others through hard seasons. He knows exactly when we need to be refilled.

We also dive into the importance of using the spiritual gifts God has given us and why those gifts were never meant to stay hidden. Through 1 Timothy, we’re reminded to steward what God has placed inside of us and to continue inspiring others to stay close to Christ, no matter what life looks like.

If you’ve been feeling weary, unseen, or questioning your purpose… this episode is for you.

What does it really mean to be saved? In this episode of Healing in His Hands, we dive into Romans 10:5–15 and unpack the true way to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. I also share something deeply personal.. how I have peace knowing Vanessa and Nick are with the Lord, not because of religious works or baptism, but because they confessed Jesus as Lord over their lives.

We also talk about fear.. especially the fear of death that so many adults and even children carry.. and why, as believers, we don’t have to live in fear. Our earthly bodies may pass away, but in Christ, death is not the end… it’s eternity with Him.

This episode is for anyone wrestling with grief, salvation, fear, or wanting to understand what God’s Word truly says about eternal life.

Grief is heavy. It comes in waves, in quiet moments, in memories, and in the ache of what’s been lost. In this episode, I open my heart about the grief I’m carrying right now, and the grace of God meeting me in the middle of it.

Even in sorrow, He is present. Even in tears, He is faithful. Even in brokenness, He is still holding me together. If you’ve ever wondered how grief and grace can exist at the same time, this conversation is for you.

Right now, I’m literally walking with crutches… but spiritually, I’m being carried in a whole different way. In this episode, “The Lord Is My Crutch,” I open up about what it looks like to lean on God in the middle of real pain—physical, emotional, and everything in between.

Sometimes we try to be strong on our own. We push through, hold it together, and tell ourselves we’re okay… even when we’re not. But God never asked us to suffer alone.

2 Corinthians 12:9 reminds us: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”

This episode is a reminder that your weakness isn’t something to hide. It’s exactly where God’s strength shows up the most.

If you’re walking through pain, grief, or just feeling worn down… this is for you. You’re not alone, and you don’t have to carry it by yourself.

Behind every smile, there can be a story no one sees.

In today’s episode, I open up about the heaviness I’m carrying as we mark one year since Nick has been gone. Grief doesn’t always look the way we expect… sometimes it shows up in quiet moments, hidden behind a smile, tucked beneath “I’m okay.”

✨ “Even in laughter the heart may ache…” — Proverbs 14:13

But here’s the truth: God meets us there.

Not just in our strength, but in our sorrow. Not just in our joy, but in the places we try to hide.

If you’ve ever smiled while silently hurting, this episode is for you. You’re not alone, and you don’t have to carry it by yourself.

🤍 Let this be your reminder that God sees what others don’t… and He draws near to the brokenhearted.

I wasn’t even planning on recording today…

I’m not feeling my best, and honestly, I was ready to rest. But in the middle of my shower, God gently whispered something that shifted everything:

“The world will keep going, even if you can’t get everything done.”

That reminder hit deep.

In a life full of responsibilities—being a mom, working, serving, building, and trying to stay consistent—it’s so easy to feel like everything depends on us. Like if we slow down, everything will fall apart.

But that’s not truth. That’s pressure.

In this episode, I’m sharing what God showed me about:

• Letting go of the pressure to do it all

• Resting without guilt

• Trusting that God is still in control, even when we pause

• Releasing the need to prove or perform

If you’ve been overwhelmed, tired, or feeling like you’re falling behind… this is your reminder:

You are not the one holding everything together, God is.

In this episode of Healing in His Hands, I dive into the story of Mary and Martha and share how God convicted my heart about distractions.

I didn’t realize how easily “being busy” was pulling me away from simply sitting at His feet. Like Martha, I was doing all the right things… but missing the most important thing.

This episode is raw, honest, and a reminder that Jesus isn’t asking for our performance. He’s asking for our presence.

If you’ve been feeling distracted, overwhelmed, or distant from God, this is your invitation to come back and sit with Him.

This episode stretched me in a way I didn’t expect…

I started in 1 Samuel 16:6-7, where God reminds us that He doesn’t see the way we see. He looks at the heart. And as I sat in that truth, God began to gently confront something deep within me.

I found myself wrestling with the reality that the same grace God gives me… is available to the people who hurt me the most. Even the ones responsible for taking someone I love.

If they repent, God forgives them.

And that’s hard to accept.

But how can I hold onto anger when God has forgiven me time and time again?

This episode is raw, emotional, and real. I even broke down mid-recording because of the conviction I felt. But I know this is a message someone else needs too.

God isn’t asking us to understand everything… He’s asking us to trust His heart. 🤍
