In this episode of It’s Mel with Grace, we’re talking about what it really means to hear and recognize the voice of God— even in the middle of everyday chaos. We’ll unpack how the Holy Spirit speaks to our hearts, how to discern His voice from our own thoughts, and what obedience looks like when He calls us to move.

This conversation was deeply inspired by a powerful message from Priscilla Shirer, “Hearing God,” which reminds us that hearing the voice of the Lord isn’t reserved for a select few — it’s for every believer who belongs to Him.🎥 Watch the full message here: Hearing God // Priscilla Shirer

“My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” — John 10:27

This week’s episode didn’t go as planned — but maybe that’s exactly how God wanted it. After a recording glitch with a special guest, I decided to roll with it and share my heart on the power of your story.

Because the truth is: your story, with all its detours, delays, and doubts, still carries purpose. Grace doesn’t erase the messy parts — it redeems them. Through raw reflections and encouragement, let’s be reminded that our testimonies have power, our honesty has impact, and our obedience to share could be someone else’s breakthrough.

✨ Episode Verse: Revelation 12:11 — “They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.”☕ Theme: Testimony, Grace, Purpose🎙 Bonus: Stay tuned for our upcoming conversation with a friend as a bonus episode!

until next week friend!!

with grace and gratitude,

Mel
