What the Elle with Elle Kreamer

Everything in our lives can start to feel urgent, and when that happens, we forget what it truly means to be still and know that He is God. Scripture reminds us that “by waiting and by calm, you shall be saved,” yet the enemy works hard to steal that privilege of stillness.

I talk about how urgency can become a god in our lives—an idol we bow to without realizing it. The devil can’t create anything new; he only distorts what God intended for good. One of his biggest tactics is pushing us to move fast so we don’t slow down long enough to notice God’s presence or listen to His voice.

I also touch on the parable of the sower and how the most dangerous seed is the one swallowed up by thorns—choked out by hurry, worry, and the pressures of life.

And the beautiful truth?

Even while we rush, strive, and stress, God is urgently waiting for us—waiting for us to return to Him, to breathe, to trust, and to rest in His stillness.

This episode may ruffle some feathers… but it’s coming straight from my heart. I’m talking about something we all run into when we start walking boldly with Jesus: knowing when to lovingly stand firm in our faith, and when to step back from a conversation that’s going nowhere.

I share some real moments where I tried to defend what I believe—only to realize I was arguing with someone who didn’t actually want understanding… they just wanted a debate. And honestly? That can leave us feeling discouraged, misunderstood, and even questioning ourselves.Through all of this, I’ve learned that discernment is key. Not every conversation is ours to win.

Not every challenge is worth our peace. In this episode, I want to remind you (and myself) to lead with love, anchor ourselves in community, and trust that God can handle His own defense. We’re simply called to reflect Him well.

If you’ve ever walked away from a conversation wondering if you did the right thing—this one’s for you. Let’s talk about grace, confidence, and picking our battles with the Holy Spirit as our guide. 🤍✝️

This episode gets real about the stuff we don’t always admit out loud: the sins we keep going back to, the habits that own us, and the lies we start believing about who we are. I talk about the difference between being a slave and a servant, how sin tries to claim us, and how Jesus refuses to leave us in bondage. If you’re tired of feeling chained to the same cycles, this conversation will remind you of the freedom already paid for in full.

If we waited to act until we “felt like it,” nothing meaningful would ever get done. Jesus didn’t go to the cross because it felt good—He went because it was necessary. Purpose will ask you to move even when your emotions don’t want to.

There’s a certain kind of grief that no one really talks about—the kind that comes from losing someone who’s still alive, or mourning the version of yourself that you had to let go of. It’s not loud, it’s quiet. It’s the ache that hits when a memory surfaces, or when you realize you’ve outgrown the place you prayed to be in.In this episode, I open up about the pain of change—the kind that doesn’t always come with closure. Sometimes God asks us to release what once felt like home so He can rebuild us into who we were always meant to be. But that doesn’t make it easy. You can forgive, heal, and move forward—and still miss what was.If you’re walking through a season of silent mourning—grieving the old you, or someone who’s no longer in your life—this episode is a reminder that healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means trusting that God is writing something new, even when your heart still breaks for what used to be.✨ Stay Connected with Me! ✨ 🌸 TikTok: [@whattheactualelle](https://www.tiktok.com/@whattheactualelle) 📸 Instagram: [@elle_kreamer](https://www.instagram.com/elle_kreamer?igsh=bGwxb3BjZjg4OHM0&utm_source=qr) 🎥 YouTube: [Eleanor Rose Kreamer](https://www.youtube.com/@EleanorRoseKreamer) 🌐 Linktree: [All My Links](https://linktr.ee/ellekreamerr) 🎙️ Podcast: [What The Elle](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/whattheelle) 💖 Let’s grow together, spread love, and dive into all things faith, growth, and purpose! 🌷✨

I’ve been thinking a lot about worthiness—how easy it is to feel like what we have or who we are isn’t enough. But this week, I’m reminded that God doesn’t need perfection; He just needs surrender. The same God who multiplied five loaves and two fish can multiply what little we bring when we trust Him with it. Let’s talk about letting go of comparison, finding real satisfaction, and resting in the truth that He loves us right where we are.✨ Stay Connected with Me! ✨ 🌸 TikTok: [@whattheactualelle](https://www.tiktok.com/@whattheactualelle) 📸 Instagram: [@elle_kreamer](https://www.instagram.com/elle_kreamer?igsh=bGwxb3BjZjg4OHM0&utm_source=qr) 🎥 YouTube: [Eleanor Rose Kreamer](https://www.youtube.com/@EleanorRoseKreamer) 🌐 Linktree: [All My Links](https://linktr.ee/ellekreamerr) 🎙️ Podcast: [What The Elle](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/whattheelle) 💖 Let’s grow together, spread love, and dive into all things faith, growth, and purpose! 🌷✨

In this episode, I open up about the struggle of comparison and what it does to our peace. We talk about trusting God’s timing, letting go of envy, and learning to cheer others on while waiting for our own breakthrough. God’s plan for your life doesn’t look like anyone else’s—and that’s the beauty of it. You’re not behind; you’re being prepared.

I talk about the importance of letting go of what no longer serves us and truly trusting God’s plan for renewal. I’ve learned that surrendering control isn’t easy — especially when what we’re letting go of feels familiar or comfortable. But sometimes, the things we miss most are the very things God is trying to free us from.I share some of my favorite biblical examples, like the Israelites wanting to go back to Egypt and Sarah trying to rush God’s promise through Hagar. These stories remind me that God doesn’t need my shortcuts; He needs my surrender. When we stop trying to replace what He’s trying to renew, that’s when we actually step into His promises.This episode is for anyone who feels stuck between where they were and where God’s taking them — still holding onto Egypt while praying for the Promised Land.✨ Stay Connected with Me! ✨ 🌸 TikTok: [@whattheactualelle](https://www.tiktok.com/@whattheactualelle) 📸 Instagram: [@elle_kreamer](https://www.instagram.com/elle_kreamer?igsh=bGwxb3BjZjg4OHM0&utm_source=qr) 🎥 YouTube: [Eleanor Rose Kreamer](https://www.youtube.com/@EleanorRoseKreamer) 🌐 Linktree: [All My Links](https://linktr.ee/ellekreamerr) 🎙️ Podcast: [What The Elle](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/whattheelle) 💖 Let’s grow together, spread love, and dive into all things faith, growth, and purpose! 🌷✨

You know, when I read the story of Rachel and Leah, I can’t help but see myself in it. Leah spent her whole life trying to earn Jacob’s love, thinking that if she performed enough—if she gave him children, if she proved herself—then maybe she would finally be seen. But here’s the thing: she already had blessings. She just couldn’t see them because she was too distracted by her suffering.

And don’t we do the same thing? How many times have you and I stared so long at what someone else has that we miss the gift God has already placed in our hands? We say, “They stole my chance at success, at love, at joy”—but really, no one can steal what God has already written for you.

Sometimes He allows something to be taken away just so you remember who you are without it. Sometimes He closes a door so you’ll stop prying it open and finally look at the blessing sitting right in front of you. You already have everything you need in Him.

So today, I want to challenge you: How can you overcome envy and replace it with kindness? How can you stop performing for love and start resting in the truth that you’re already chosen, already loved, already seen by God?
