    😮 Tori, the way I saw the drawing of a little girl’s feet standing on her father’s when you shared perspective shift…as we wait and put our trust in Him, he gives us his eyes to see things through his lens. 🙌🏽

    This episode is one of my favs on the podcast! The texting incidence made me laugh sooo hard! 😭 but overall, the message of the episode was very sentimental and spiritually deep 🤍 thank you so much for sharing your stories! They mean more to us than you realize.

    I just listened to the health journey part but man I needed to hear a story like this. I've been dealing with tinnitus (constant ear ringing) for the past month, and you have no idea how disruptive to life it can be. It's hard to know what it's like until you experience it. It's caused debilitating anxiety, fear that I will be stuck like this for the rest of my life. (most doctors say it's hard to "cure" or find the underlying cause for it.) Thankfully the past week it has gotten a lot quieter and I pray that the Lord is healing me and it's going away, but there's also so much fear about what if it comes back more... But man I'm trying to learn so much going through this and seeing how the Lord is working. He gives me ways to cope and find relief in moments throughout the day and I've had a few good days filled with no worry almost no sound and pure joy. Other days are harder and I'm anxious for no reason even when I pray that the He would cast out fear and fill me with peace. I know He's working all things for my good and His glory but I'm so scared of continuing to suffer. It made me feel not alone that Kelly said some days she's not good at staying calm and positive and having hope, because I know that God wants me to have joy in the midst of suffering but it's HARD. It feels impossible most of the time. Kelly, I will pray for your continued healing.❤ Sometimes I feel like my situation is the absolute worst but I have to remember I still have so much to be thankful for. I can't imagine what it's like to go through what you're going through. I would appreciate prayer as well for healing of this tinnitus and for God to reveal what he is doing through me or working in me internally. I miss being able to sit in SILENCE in God's presence or just sit down in the quiet to relax in general. Even sometimes white noise or music doesn't help. I'm especially worried I'll be too afraid to start a family with my husband. I'm already too over stimulated sometimes with sounds I can't imagine how a child could exacerbate this. It's truly so sad... I would appreciate prayers for courage and guidance and healing... Thank you all.

    I have been dealing with a double ear infection and some tinnitus as well!! I got pretty sick a month and a half ago and it developed into this a couple weeks ago. I am also dealing with ear aches and sound sensitivity. Can we pray in the name of Jesus for HEALING!!

    I wish their was more Christian based chronic health and what it does to the mental and spiritual, I look 70 lbs and have been traumatized from what I've been and go thru, struggling mentally and spiritually big time, I'm not sure I'm saved, idk how long I have, my mind and heart and spirit are a mess, the suffering is so intense and relentless, prayers appreciated, need others standing in the gap for me, I can't make sense of anything God based right now and don't have support, my ex spouse left me during this season and I lost the ability to finish raising my son due to my health battle, its systemic and structural, prayers plz, the torment and despair is beyond what I can handle, I cry out to God yet deal with unbeleif, prayers plz
