About this channel: Welcome to my channel. I'm Amber Smith. My husband Granger and I live on a little farm in central Texas with lots of animals and our beautiful, super funny kiddos. We have London, Lincoln, River (who is now with Jesus) and Maverick. This channel is a spin off of our family vlog The Smiths.
I started Arise, when we lost our son, to share my feelings of loss, grief, love, hope, parenting and my faith journey along the way. We comb through scripture, I share what the Lord puts on my heart, I answer questions and more. My hope through Arise is that something I say makes you want to seek Jesus. He changed my life and my heart when I was in my 30s and I've been sharing the good news ever since.
Life is hard but God is so good. I pray you are encouraged each week. Make sure you subscribe and hit the notification bell so you don't miss any videos! I can't wait to see you Sunday mornings at 8am central! Welcome to Arise! You are chosen!

    Amber thank you for being you. You have been instrumental in my walk with Jesus. I wake up every morning journal and read my Bible. I have done this for over a year now and it’s all with your and Granger’s encouragement. You even helped me pick out my Bible. My life has completely changed. You are making a difference. I thank you with my whole heart ❤.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer questions like you did today. Things that I'll be especially taking away from today's sessions: I love that you talk about asking your children for forgiveness. Too many parents think this is some sign of weakness, but it's the ultimate sign of strength and faith. Thank you for your answer to looking forward to seeing River in Heaven. I struggle with that issue. I noticed I was getting more comfortable with the idea of Heaven when more of my loved ones had passed from this life, but I know that being with God and Jesus should be my utmost desire. I'm working on it. I hope you know the difference you're making in the lives of others, and I know you're making that difference because you're allowing Him to work through you.

    Thank you for humbling me in my motherhood. As a stay-at-home mom and caregiver of elders in my family I can get lost in the mundane feeling that what I'm doing isn't worth much but this morning you opened my eyes to the honorable job our glorious God gave me, to thank Him and pray to Him in the midst of my day to day duties. Amber, I'm grateful to have you in my life. I'm grateful that my son Oliver led me to your Granger which Ied me to your sweet Smith family. Happy Birthday to your sweet River. His memory is very much alive.

    Amber this message is so good. Your answers were so insightful. I shared with my daughter's and friends. Thank you for being faithful. Happy heavenly birthday River. My husband's heavenly birthday was May 14th, and my perspective has changed as well the closer I get in my faith the more I know what I am looking forward to. Keep up the great work.

    Father, this Pentecost, may it be apparent to all who see me that I am obviously more than a conqueror in Jesus. (Romans 8:37). Blessings

    I really think your part of God's plan you spreading that word could not o ly be the path to saving a child but brings someone to God through that saving. Some times the saving is the plan. I've learned that first hand with my brother, as much as I dont feel like a hero, I know it wasn't God's time or plan. God bless you so much 🙏 ❤️

    Happy birthday River! I have asked this question a few times and still very interested in your answer and I’m not sure if I’ve missed it on a previous episode or not. But would love to hear about your IVF experience. Specifically, did you only have 2 embryos? I know you experienced a miscarriage prior to Maverick. Curious to hear your perspective on how IVF aligns with God’s Will. & if there were more than 2, would you have those children as well? I see conflicting information as to if they are considered children prior to implantation. Interested to hear your biblical perspective. I have a friend who did IVF and chose to have a boy because she lost her 6 month old son. I’ve even considered this myself… But what about the other embryos? Thank you for your time! Hopeful to hear your perspective soon.

    I am a born again filled with the Holy Ghost. I believe that speaking in tongues is very important in our relationship with our Father. He wants us to speak his language that special language that he gives us. Do you watch things other than soft Baptist preaching. I would hope you would watch prophecy teaching. Please give. Robin D. Bullock. Church International in Warrior Alabama. Hank and Brenda Kunneman . Lord of Host Church, Omaha Nebraska. Try it. It is alive with Jesus. You would love it so would Granger. God Bless. 🙏🏻✡️✝️
