Hey Ashley, back in 2019 i gave my life to Christ. Before this (in 2018) My family started having a really terrible time coping with bills. I got kicked out of school, my dad lost his job, we basically only had little to go by. I remember having to write my final exams as my family lived with our Pastor and his wife in their little apartment. Eventually, after i got kicked out of school, my mental health went under. I'd be left at home till late-ish and would literally sit in the dark just staring. My life was really going under but then Jesus stepped in. A friend of mine posted different things about Jesus and Scripture on her story and that's how I came to know the Lord. Ever since then my life and that of my family have changed. Literally God has opened financial doors, my education is moving forward so much has happened and honestly it's great to belong to Jesus🥰🥰🥰

Hi Ashley I’m 12 😊 I gave my life to Jesus when I was little probably around like 6 years old but I never really took it seriously but this year when I was at a camp with our church, but during the night service I saw my friends just all breaking down crying because the Holy Spirit was just falling on us and I didn’t really feel anything so I walked up to the alter I closed my eyes and I just prayed to God I surrender every thing and now I trust the Lord even more and now I take my faith very seriously

I grew up in a Russian Orthodox family. At least with my mum. I was baptised at an early age ( all children were actually: my brothers and cousins. We were all babies), so I knew the baseline of faith. I always accepted Christ, but I didn’t really have a relationship with him. We pray before dinner, we fast before Easter (Lent) We have an icon of Jesus and Mother Mary, I have an icon of my Guardian Saint Martyr: Hope. The beginning of my relationship was the second time my paternal grandfather got really sick (2019). We were in Italy in September that year. One day, my step-dad (whose Catholic) took me to a nearby church in Rome. I walked around (it was really beautiful) and came to an image of Christ. I had been constantly worried about my grandpa. I just fell and prayed that my grandfather would recover. When we returned, we were told he was recovering slowly. Slowly, but there was a big chance he would survive. The whole year was a massive blow to us. As I mentioned it was the second time this had happened, I am very close to my paternal grandfather. But I never turned back. However, I kind of forgot about Jesus and Lord. I never forgot what he did though. Last year I moved to Russia from Australia. That was a horrible 4-5 months. My back was turned. I was leaving my family, my friends. I’ve been to my mum’s hometown anytime, so it wasn’t knew or scary, but the thought that I might never see my friends and family again scare me. Only a month and a bit ago, I realised, all this time I had some one else on my heart. We weren’t together, he didn’t;t like me, he had a girlfriend. But we were friends. Not close, just friends. For some reason he occupied my thought months after I moved. But I’m glad I’ve started to read the bible, pray and talk to God. Your testimony was so moving an inspiring, Ashely, keep up the wonderful work. God bless you!

Girl! So happy to hear your full story. It's so amazing everything God has brought you through, He truly never stops loving us. What hit home for me would be that He can heal all things, our hearts, minds, souls, bodies, and pasts. I've been blessed to grow up in a Christian home, but that definitely doesn't rule out struggle and attacks of the enemy. I dealt with insecurity in my body and image around 13-14. Basically expecting mother nature to do more for me more quickly. LOL It led me to view things I shouldn't of and that honestly just troubled me more. I had had an "ok God I'm done with this moment" but didn't fully surrender it. The enemy had me in so deep that I didn't even realize it, I fell back to the "viewing" again here and there over the next month or 2. Then I was at youth group one night, an amazing service and then the holy spirit fell during the alter call and God lifted that weight off of my shoulders, my heart, and my soul. It felt like an instant drop off from my mind to the floor and I felt like I could fly, honest truth. I spiritually could feel all of that junk, weight, and hurt drop to the floor in front where I was standing and I left it there. Walked away that night free, never falling back into that rut. I found my image to be beautiful and exactly how God wanted me to be at that time of life. I saw myself through His eyes not the world's. He truly loves us, even when we waver, as you said Ashley, He's patiently waiting. It was a process over the next year to 2, to have the full realization and appreciation of who I was as a daughter of Christ. I've of course had many other struggles and most just these past 2 years. But I can now say, with a thankful heart, that God has delivered me from it all and I am as of this year growing closer to Him then I have for a very long time. I'm not on a perfect schedule yet, but it's a daily process and commitment that I refuse to lose sight of. Your encouragement and messages were truly an inspiration and a light from God for me Ashley. I know that He literally started putting your posts in my Pinterest feed. So never stop doing what God calls you to, He will always bless more than you know with your obedience. Thank you sweet sister. ❤️

God saved me from a suicide attempt almost 2 years ago, he changed my life, brought my family close together and taught me love. I’m so grateful for Him ❤️

Hi everyone. I have something beautiful to share. My testimony. I was suffering from depression, fear and anxiety. So many people told me to go to psychiatrist but I refused and started praying...started reading John. What a beautiful chapter. Till 9 months nothing happened. My situation was same but I used to pray pray and pray...one day it was all gone...I was free...free of fear,, anxiety and depression. Prayer does work. God is faithful. Know that your situation is only temporary. May be in this painful time god is teaching you something. May be he is getting you closer to him. Because we humans...trust him with all your heart. He will deliver...surely. God bless 😀😀

Girl me too! I wasn’t raised in a Christian family so talking about my testimony and about the Lord was hard but he will guide us every step of the way

A few months ago, I was having friend problems and started to get sad alot.Then, I saw one of your videos, and I began reading the bible, and trying to go to church with my grandma any time I could. Then in one of your videos, you said, "If you're worrying about it you're not praying about it." That changed everything, I began praying about anything that made me nervous, and all my fear went away, then just a few weeks ago, I started a KZread channel devoted to spreading the Lords word.

Thank you for this. OCD doesn’t define me, God does.

Wow. I have never been moved by a video so much. I was raised loosely Catholic, we went to church every Sunday for a few years on and off throughout my childhood, but my biological father wouldn’t allow my mom to have me baptized, and denounced all religion. I feel like the lord has spoken to me, and I cannot stop consuming content and scripture since that moment. I’ve been having a really rough time, for a very long time, and I’ve been doing it alone. I feel like I’ve made too many mistakes that God can not forgive, and I’m early in my journey, but your videos (especially this one) are showing me the love and light that is God and Christianity. I’ve been struggling to find whether I should follow the Catholic or Christian faith, but I feel like God is calling me towards the latter. I have hopes of getting formally baptized on my 24th birthday (late, yes, but never too late) and fully giving myself back to Christ. I already had my head down, tearing up when you started your prayer. I said every word with you, crying. God is so good, and so patient. Thank you for spreading his word, and his light. To anyone reading, it’s never too late to form a relationship with Christ, and as she said in the video, you’re never too far gone. God bless ✝️💗

I was a cradle Catholic but finally started reading scripture on my own this year. I ended up finding Christ for real this year and left the Catholic Church to go to a church with more emphasis on scripture. Personally, I’d recommend finding a Christian community over Catholic because Catholicism is much more rooted in tradition. The mass involves a lot of rituals with barely any time for a sermon. I’ve found that a Christian service helps me grow more in my faith bc there’s a much longer sermon with a lot more references to scripture. Stay focused on God’s word!

Feelin like I’ve been grabbed by fear and been stuck in cycles of depression and anxiety too. God has picked me up so many times and still I have issues believing. Thank you for sharing your testimony and being bold! Thank you for leading me in prayer today ❤

Hi Ashley. My name is Vanessa. I barely reply in the comments, so I’m definitely out of my comfort zone but I just wanted to thank you. Your story just struck me. I too had to experience both my parents divorcing and my grandmother passing away at the same time. There was a time where I felt like I had to do so much just to be able to fit in. I thank God that today I can experience having a relationship with him. I still remember the afternoon when my mother told me something that changed my life. She said “when we die, we get to spend eternity with Jesus.” My mind was blown away. I couldn’t comprehend and still today it feels so hard to do so. I’ve been following you for a while, I actually discovered you from my little sister. Today I just wanted to know more about your story, and I’m glad I did. I can’t believe how much I can relate to you. Please keep encouraging so many to get to know Jesus. I hope you see this. (My hands are literally sweating while I’m writing this note) 😅❤ Thank you so much!

wow this is crazy... God suddenly led me to watch this video at 1 am and i'm shocked by how i can directly relate so specifically to two aspects of your testimony! i know that it wasn't an accident and i'm so thankful that you posted this video and that God led me to it!

I felt so much conviction when you said how you would change your self around different people because I LITERALLY DO THAT STILL but God is my everything my #1 yet I still find my self worrying about what others think of me IF ANYONE SEES THIS PLEASE PRAY FOR MEEEE I wanna get out of that mindset and Galatians 1:10 life

your testimony is currently moving me. Even though this was uploaded a year ago I’m still trying to get closer to God and I’m glad I found you through Pinterest. You inspire me and I’m currently writing scriptures down so Amen and God bless u.

I TOTALLY relate to this bc I struggled with fear exactly like this before too. Im also a Christian KZreadr and I was in bondage as well and God delivered me through fasting a prayer. And I finally stepped out of the fear and into the calling of my life. God is so amazing! Thank you for sharing and may God bless you sister in Christ🙏

I said the prayer. Lately I have been feeling like I have been away from God. Like I have been living this life alone, and that I dont really know God. I have talked to Him and prayed to Him but I alwalys have had conistant fear that I am not His. But for once, I BELIEVE. PRAY FOR ME, IF YOUR WILLING. AMEN. ❤

Wow, GOD use you to talk to me! for the 2 week i went to the ER, due to shortness of breath, a very bad headache and neck pain, i was shaking, felt very depressed. The Doctor told me that I had panic atack. He told me to ask my primary care Doctor to put me on medication. I stayed in prayer all the time, i say Psalm 91 tree times a day then pray. Now im heal, and said that im not even going to talk with my primary care Doctor about the situation. And you talking to me, is proof that God doesn't want me to be on medication. Thank you so much Ash, may the LORD continue to use you. And stay humble just like you are! I can feel the spirit of GOD in You. GOD bless you!

I did the prayer with you. I have been saved since 2012, but I have been lukewarm. Not on fire for the Lord, not in the word. Cursing, drinking. Not raising my children to know God. I pray for restoration of faith, that I may be able to lean on Him. I have been experiencing anxiety and paranoia and I think it’s satan getting in my mind, instilling fear, and robbing me of joy. Thank you for this.

I’ve come to realize that the enemy is just a tool that God uses. The enemy can’t do anything without permission. Just like he had to approach before he terrorized Job, he has to do the same for us. The accuser of the brethren can’t act without a legal right. The warfare comes because God is calling you back. Your spirit is convicted, your soul is battling the flesh and the spirit. You have conviction to change but the enemy uses that conviction to condemn. God uses it to correct us. The Joy of the Lord is our strength. When we aren’t close to Him we have joy or strength.

@@The_holly_and_the_holy I don’t mean that he uses the enemy to torture us. But warfare of the mind can be used to strengthen our faith.

I'm thirteen. My testimony started in August a few months ago. I've had a stutter since I was 8. In sixth grade, I experienced some pretty bad ridicule from my classmates and people who I thought were my friends. Since then, my life changed into wanting to be fluent. Middle school was coming up the year after, and I thought stuttering would be the way out of my pain. The way out of sadness and bullying. I didn't see it then, and I worked so hard to stop stuttering. Of course, it didn't go away. I went through 7th grade with a few friends, but I was still focused on the stuttering. My mind would be on it pretty much all the time. In 8th grade, I was determined to make a "new version of myself" and the process of this was to manage my stutter and to not put the goal of fluency in my mind. One day, in August, something was put on my heart to read the Bible. I read it, not really caring much about it. I stopped for about three weeks, when I decided to read it again. A few days before the 8th grade year, I realized that I did not prepare to say my name in front of people (I like to have everything planned). That led to anxiety and even trouble sleeping. When I got to school, I didn't even have to say my name! That whole first week of school, I was anxious. I realized that the anxiety was ridiculous, and it made me think about how God knew I wouldn't have to say my name (which would have saved me from my worry), and that I should trust in Him. This walk hasn’t been easy. Although I still stutter, stuttering no longer has me in its wraps. I am free!

So grateful for your existence on YT. Thankyou Lord ❤

You have such a warm heart and you are so kind and sweet, I really want to just hug you. I love your energy! I am in my 20s and my story is a little bit unusual. I grew up and live in a completely atheistic community (east germany has lost almost it's whole christianity due to the DDR). But I found faith still. I always believed in something higher and was really into spiritual things and then I read the Books of C. S. Lewis. Narnia, Mere Christianity, the problem of pain. I also read The Power of now and still think it's a good book as it offers some good ideas that are helpful. And I am still into spirituality and it actually helps me to get closer to god. I bought a bible and do bible journaling a lot and I love worship music very much. Also learned a lot about the bible at university (I study literature sciences). Sadly christianity isn't very accepted where I live. Church, the bible and faith have a really bad reputation here. But that won't stop me from doing what I think is right. I experienced several trauma since childhood and grewing up the world offered no help and pushed me deep down into anxiety and anger. Guess who finally helped me to step into healing? You know the answer. Who the son sets free, is free indeed 💚

I really love that you are sharing this story I'm catholic and I understand that you can get bored really fast during service if you don't really understand what's happening. I started to understand like a year ago when I started getting involved in a community group. Everything what's happening during service has purpose and deeper sense and once you start to understand it's not as thrilling as your ceremony but it's amazing too. You get to receive Communion ( like when you start to belive that's Him in this little piece fo bread it's literally WOW), read His word just like in your church, worship Him, share peace with people and some other things. I wrote this in different order than it is but I think that what's the most important thing should go first so... yea. I used to get bored easily during service but now when I know more and have personal relationship with Jesus I really like going to church and even though it's not the most interesting form I'm really happy to be there. And for my little catholic and non-catholic sisters: it really helps when you'll find community group. You can learn a lot about Jesus, service, life and everything. You can't forget about having intimate relationship with Him but sometimes community can be something you can start with

I’m struggling with OCD right now. But as I was writing a card to my parents for Christmas. I wrote how God Is helping them, suddenly I felt something while writing that. It was the Holy Spirit. I cried in tears of happiness because feeling God is The most amazing feeling of all, The Holy Spirit loves you, welcome the Holy Spirit in your life! The Holy Spirit wants to befriend and help you, so invite it into your life. It’s changed me for the better! If you are struggling with mind battles, remember scripture and how God is helping you. ❤ I loved this video, Thankyou! ❤

Testimony’s aren’t always the most interesting thing to me because I have a short attention span but I was genuinely interested in hearing what you had to say!

Every time when I hear how Jesus saved people it makes me soo happy. Praise our lord that he has so much grace and love for everyone! I´m now 15 years old, at I was 11 years old I give my life to Christ, after a accident. Everyone tought I was dead, but the lord saved me, because he know that if I was dead, I were getting lost. Jesus change so much in my life, after I gived my life to him. I never was so grateful in my life than now, not because my life is easy or something, It´s because I have Jesus and we go togehter through every day in my life. Thank you Ashley for you videos, it helps me so much to grow in my life with Jesus!!❤

Thank you so much for sharing your testimony! You touched my heart! We are in many ways opposites. I was an only child almost ten years. I came from an abusive family. I was raised Byzantine Catholic. After my parents divorced my mom pushed me to become LDS. I was not popular. I wasn't willing to do or pretend to be what it would take to be popular. What the popular kids did wasn't appealing. I was lonely, but unwilling to change for my peers or my parents. I had been told about being born again. It was unlike my Catholic back ground . I was told the Catholic Church was the church Jesus established. So i didn't give it much mind. The abuse became unbearable and i took up drinking. I was already alcoholic at a young age. I jumped from one bad relationship to another where again i suffered abuse, so i drank more. I had a brief first marriage that ended in disaster and i tried to take my life. I was married again about six months after the divorce. We have been married since May of 1981. We were married in an LDS Temple. I was offended by the experience and took off the Mormon underwear after two months, so did my husband. I went back to drinking. I hadn't been drinking because i damaged my liver trying to end my life. Eventually i landed in AA and got sober. That was 1988. I have three grown children. Back up a bit. My first nine years sober i spent dabbling in New Age. My husband had become born again . A sister in sobriety was having a really hard time and wanted me to attend a Bible based step meeting. She was always there for me so i attended. After attending for a few months, i hated it, I told the pastor who was running the meeting i wouldn't be back. He held my wrist and asked, " why?" I said , "Your God doesn't want anything to do with me!" He kept talking and i ended up on the floor weeping and surrendered my life to Christ. I tell folks i was kidnapped lol because that wasn't my intention. I went through an adolescent stage in my walk with Jesus. He gently brought me back into walking with him. I share common ground with you because i deal with fear. I have an anxiety, panic disorder. It lead to agoraphobia for years. I was 37 yrs when i came to Christ. It is wonderful you surrendered to Him at such a young age! May our Lord richly bless you!

I was also told to make Bible cards for my depression and they were so helpful, I still have the cards. Your testimony is so powerful and gives people hope to fully surrender even if the struggles are there. But you have to keep pushing forward towards God. God always nudges you and waits for you where you are.

I was born into a Christian family but feel like I am so so shallow in my link with the Lord and I feel like I'm crippled with my life situations at the moment. I think you're amazing and thanks so much for what you do it's so needed.

God is with you (and everyone) forever He will never leave you not even for a second. God bless everyone!

This video was recommended to me TWICE. The first time, I didn't watch and today, it was recommended again. Took the chance and I'm awestruck at how I could relate so much. I've been struggling but while watching this video, a wave of peace and contentment rushed to my soul. It has been hard and I've prayed for as hard as I could but with this video, it has brought up the hope I had lost. Hope that things will get better and I will heal completely. Lord knows how much I've cried but this testimony changed me today. Nothing has changed nor did any solution prop up, but I've changed. I just completely surrender everything to God. Thank you for this and God bless you more. ❤️ Love from India. ❤️

I'm so glad you were led to this lady's video. May the Lord bless you deeply.

Honestly this really spoke to me, im much younger than you but my story is really similar. it was process. i was camelean in middle school then i was homeschooled and realized i wasnt who I pretended to be. i did a bible study with my grandmother who lived thousands of miles form me and i learned about God and finally started to understand His word. As i got closer to God i got obsessive thoughts and ruminations that led to an eating disorder and then God called my family and I to move to live 40 miles from my grandparents! I found your channel around the same time and now im doing the Holy 40! i prayed the prayer at the end and cried tears of Gods joy!!!

Amen!! 🙏 He leaves the 99 to go and save the 1 lost sheep!! 😊 He loves us all even when we're sinning and hurting Him.

beyond grateful for how this encouraged you.

Hi Ashley, I was want to say, I’m in my late 30’s and find you so inspiring. I’m on a journey to come closer to God and live a more Christian life. I think just becoming a mamma for the first time 8 months ago is what sparked it and drew me closer. I stumbled across you on Pinterest and you are amazing! I just want to say what really brought a tear to my eye was seeing all the comments from 10 year old, young teens that you are helping. I mean there’s me in my late 30’s but wow these younger ones are looking up to you as well and you’re helping them and such a vital age. Thank you! You’re doing Gods work and are amazing.

Thank you for your testimony. ❤ Been watching your videos & following you for a few months now, & I'm, just now, watching your testimony. I cried watching - such a beautiful story of finding God in a broken world. I have struggled with OCD as well . . When I was a teen (I'm 25 now), it was so bad. It was life crippling with ruminations. A battle in my own brain. I never went to therapy, but I probably should have. I told my parents about what I was struggling with, but they just thought I was looking for attention. Anyway, it was years of struggle, but I do feel like God has healed me. Years of just crying out to God. I still have the disorder, but it's nothing like the past. God can heal anything!

This video has been a huge blessing for me! I have just recently been trying to connect with God and I’ve felt super lost in how I should be going about it. I went online and I was searching up christian books to read for beginners. I knew my brother had bunch of Christian books and he let me borrow one that caught my eye. I read the first chapter yesterday and on my way home from work I’m talking to God and I ask him for guidance I said “God I don’t know if this is the right way to go about getting closer to you. Please give me a sign that this is what you want.” I’m sitting on my couch this morning drinking my coffee I come across this video and I instantly related to you testimony. Then you mention this book. The same book “The purpose driven life” you mentioned so many things that resígnate so closely I couldn’t help but cry. God really works in mysterious ways. Thank you so much for this video. I needed this. God bless you.

Thank you ❤ my testimony is so similar to yours ❤ from rarely going to catholic church and being bored, from being away from God and partying and meeting guys, to finding spirituality elsewhere to OCD diagnosis, to accidentally finding the Lord during COVID while reading a book! My intrusive thoughts were about my relationship fears and I still take medication but after watching this video, it has given me the courage to ask our Father to help me heal and stop them eventually. It would be beneficial since I’m trying to conceive. I’m already in my late thirties 😅. I have the impression that you are looking for a life partner and I know that God will grant you that wish. ❤

I'm currently post grad, back in my childhood bedroom, and unsure what to do next. Through prayer, fasting, and reading His Word, Im learning to put my future in His Hands. One thing He is telling me to do is share my revelations through my blog. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for stirring my faith with your testimony.💕

hi ashley, i just got home from church today and i have homework to do but just decided to eat and watch yt for a bit before. i had this video on my watch later and put it on and when you started talking about how you felt god in your bedroom even though you were depressed i just started crying, and i hardly every cry about things. i have been struggling with anxiety and intrusive thoughts just like you did and having a really hard time because one of my best friends has been struggling with self harm. i've had so much doubt about god and feeling like i was too lost and far to be a follower of jesus and a bunch of other things, but your story was so amazing i am realizing and feeling like god can meet me anywhere and that he loves me with no strings attached. god brought you through so much and helped you just because you surrendered and he is seeking out all kinds of people in their brokenness and i am so grateful that that is what jesus does and that people like you are telling others about jesus. thank you so much and god bless you

Thank you for sharing your testimony. I have been walking with the Lord for 4 months now and I too suffer with OCD. God Bless You for posting this.

Thank you! ❤️✝️😁 I love hearing different testimonies and it just helps me so much to know that there are others out there who struggle but stand in faith.

I don’t know if anyone’s going to see this but here I go… I am 18 and I was raised in a non-religious household in which I still live in. It is incredibly welcoming, loving, and caring environment and I absolutely love my family. But I did not grow up with religion and was first introduced to it in my Catholic high school. I love the community and going to the masses and learning about scripture, but I never felt like God noticed me or that I even mattered to Him or the world. I know this is a Christian based yt channel (no hate, only love) but I first had the idea to become Catholic when I was 16, so two years ago. I’m a pretty shy and introverted person, so I haven’t told my parents that I want to become Catholic. I also know that I need a full year of classes to become Catholic since I’m 18. My college has an RCIA program that I can start in September but I’m worried that I’ll probably be the only person in the program which worries and scares me. I’m just feeling lost but I want a relationship with the Lord. Can anyone here help me out or give me advice? I feel so lost right now.

Ashley, I stumbled upon your page a few days ago but your videos have touched me in so many ways. I pray the Lord shares an overflow of blessings over you and the work you do ❤

I love how honest you are. Thank you for sharing your story! ❤️💕

Girl! So happy to hear your full story. It's so amazing everything God has brought you through, He truly never stops loving us. What hit home for me would be that He can heal all things, our hearts, minds, souls, bodies, and pasts. I've been blessed to grow up in a Christian home, but that definitely doesn't rule out struggle and attacks of the enemy. I dealt with insecurity in my body and image around 13-14. Basically expecting mother nature to do more for me more quickly. LOL It led me to view things I shouldn't of and that honestly just troubled me more. I had had an "ok God I'm done with this moment" but didn't fully surrender it. The enemy had me in so deep that I didn't even realize it, I fell back to the "viewing" again here and there over the next month or 2. Then I was at youth group one night, an amazing service and then the holy spirit fell during the alter call and God lifted that weight off of my shoulders, my heart, and my soul. It felt like an instant drop off from my mind to the floor and I felt like I could fly, honest truth. I spiritually could feel all of that junk, weight, and hurt drop to the floor in front where I was standing and I left it there. Walked away that night free, never falling back into that rut. I found my image to be beautiful and exactly how God wanted me to be at that time of life. I saw myself through His eyes not the world's. He truly loves us, even when we waver, as you said Ashley, He's patiently waiting. It was a process over the next year to 2, to have the full realization and appreciation of who I was as a daughter of Christ. I've of course had many other struggles and most just these past 2 years. But I can now say, with a thankful heart, that God has delivered me from it all and I am as of this year growing closer to Him then I have for a very long time. I'm not on a perfect schedule yet, but it's a daily process and commitment that I refuse to lose sight of. Your encouragement and messages were truly an inspiration and a light from God for me Ashley. I know that He literally started putting your posts in my Pinterest feed. So never stop doing what God calls you to, He will always bless more than you know with your obedience. Thank you sweet sister. ❤️

Thank you, Ash, for being raw and sharing your testimony with us! ❤️ You've inspired me to reveal mine.

This has blessed my soul. I also grew up Catholic! I tried to find my worth in accomplishing things to make my parents happy. I also just wanted to be like and valued by others. It took everything from me. I realized that the Lord was all that I needed. I want to fully live my life for Him and make Him known. I feel like I am stuck though and have been consumed with anxiety at times. I don't know how to win the battle and I have dealt with it for years. I related to you with you saying that you ended up realizing you had OCD. I thought it was amazing that you said you fasted and prayed and God healed you. What does that look like? I want that

Ashley, it’s so amazing getting to know your testimony! And knowing that I’m not alone, I never grew up in church, never knew God growing up. When I was 13 years old, I fell into addiction with pornography and masturbation. I felt so ashamed and so scared to come to God. About a year later, I was 14 four days from turning 15 a month before October in late September my family of six had Covid. My mom and dad were really sick and my mom ended up in the hospital for a month and a half, on October 22nd my mom ended up passing away. And at first, I wanted nothing to do with God. Because I was so mad at him, a few years before my mom had passed away I was homeschooled for 7 years of my life. And when my mom passed away I had no choice but to go to school. It was a private Christian school my freshman year of high school. I ended up getting bullied, and tried to fit in with other people. That school ended up not working for me, so in 2022 my sophomore year I transferred schools. I’ve been to that school for almost 3 years now, last year, February 24th my old school ended up having an event Celled enlightened. That night I ended up meeting my best friend Abby, and getting saved. Seven months after being saved, I got baptized September 10th. The Lord has truly moved in my life. My sisters or my dad is not Christian and they don’t know God, please, if anybody can pray for my family, it would be really appreciated. Ashley, it’s been so amazing getting to know your testimony again, thank you so much. You are so dearly loved by God! 💗

Im so speechless, I don’t know even know what to comment , but thank you for your obedience to our Lord. Just this morning I told God that I felt like I couldn’t hear him, I felt like my mind has been in a prison. your videos have been popping up on my feed for a couple days now but finally I decided to click on your testimony video today. And wow I kept pausing the video because of how flabbergasted I was .I was relating to You so deeply especially when you said your mind was in a jail cell . But today I declare that if He did it for you , He will do it for me. Thank you dearly, God bless you & keep you ♥️

Yes you are so right about God being a healer! Thank you for sharing your story 💓

hi ashley! I know this is an older video but I just stumbled across it and wanted to share my experience. I'm in my freshman year of college and have been feeling very lost for a long time now. I've decided I wanted to become closer to Jesus and surrender to him so he can lead me to be the best version of myself that I can be. At the end of your video, saying the prayer with you I closed my eyes... right when I opened, the sun was shinning ( its ohio in the middle of winter and the sun hasn't been out in days). I just know that was the lord showing me he is there and hears me. Thank you for sharing your testimony!!

I’ve just found you this week from your “self discipline” video and I loved it! Hearing your testimony just made me so happy! I relate so much! I’m from Ohio too, and moved to Florida last year!Thank you for what you bring to this space 💙

All I cn say is "Praise God!" Once again, we see God is PERFECT in ALL his ways🙌 ure testimony is such a blessing every bit of it just to see how he worked with you stood by u..allowed u to be broken to rebuild u..ugh so amazing! May God continue to bless u.. ure videos are a blessing , keep them coming! 😊 your love for the Word is everything🙏🙌🥰❣️

A few things were so relatable! I'm going thru it right now. I said the prayer! I'm chasing Him. Thank you Jesus!

i am crying so hard right now, it’s a blessing you were on here for me to find. i prayed that prayer and immediately started to cry. i said it out loud and i felt Jesus with me. I’m fourteen years old and i think im in a very lukewarmish state of my christianity, im so terrified to be lukewarm but it’s so hard to get out of it. i’ve been trying to connect with God because right now i am in a rough patch in life, i don’t really have many friends right now because i’ve lost many and God has taken them out of ky life because they weren’t good friends but im stuck feeling alone since im soon going into freshman year of highschool. i don’t know who i am but your video and hearing your testimony which is so eye opening gives me faith that i can turn my life around and start living for God only. i want to do so much more like get baptized but i’m not sure where to go from here. thank you so much 😊

I prayed with you and it was amazing! Let me just say, I found u on Pinterest, ( meanwhile I’m trying to grow in my faith and am facing struggles with that) and I started watching u a lot and u have helped me so much with my journey with the lord! I love you and thank you so much! I haven’t been watching for long but you have already helped change my life!

WOW! Our testimonies are so similar... I grew up struggling with similar things you struggled with and God really revealed Himself to me during the quarantine and my faith has been deepened and my life forever changed after coming closer to Jesus in 2020. I struggle with OCD rumination as well - your insight is so encouraging. Also, God actually just led me to Nashville too!! Thanks for sharing, sis!

Absolutely love this. God is amazing. Thank you for this ministry

WOW! Ashley I can testify about replacing negative thoughts and fear with scripture. I was just telling my friend this an hour ago about how if I feel a sense of anxiety coming or a negative thought, I think about the times I’ve felt Gods presence and replace it with scripture as well. I love Jesus! ❤

Ashley, your testimony resonates so much with me. I grew up in the Catholic Church but only went a handful of times. I went through all of the sacraments (minus the covenant of marriage) because my mother wanted me to but I still didn’t understand and I didn’t have a relationship with Christ. I found my worth in a boy in high school as I grew up in a very abusive household that felt very loveless. I too became a chameleon to fit in wherever I was and dealt with imposter syndrome. When I was 21 I felt this pull in my heart to seek a higher power and began to go to mass with the boy from high school but he complained and hated it and would wear satanic clothes. That relationship ended. Thank the Lord!!! I kept seeking Christ and my cousin started posting about how much she loved her church. On Fourth of July weekend I was at her families lake house and I asked her if I could tag along with her to her church when we got back home to. It was set and I was so excited. At the time she wasn’t driving yet and so I picked her up and minutes away from the church I ask what to expect and she revealed, apprehensively, that the church wasn’t a Roman Catholic Church but a non denominational church. We grew up Hispanic and our entire family is Catholic and very opinionated about being so despite not going every week. My cousins mom and my mom are sisters so my first thought was, “DOES YOUR MOM KNOW?!” And “WILL SHE TELL MINE?!” Haha mind you i’m 21 and terrified haha. Her mom didn’t know the details of the church just that it was a God believing church. That visit changed my life. It was the first time I understood Gods love for me. I too fell in love with Jesus. I rose my hand to accept Christ that day. I finally revealed what the church was to my parents and they were furious. I stopped fighting back as long as I wasn’t being physically hurt. My parents learned to finally accept that I had accepted Christ in a different church and my older brother began to attend too and they allowed me to take my younger brother too eventually. My mom visited on Mother’s Day and accepted it further. I then moved to a college 45 min away and kept seeking Christ and joined Cru. The first meeting I could go to was week 3 and I almost didn’t go because my new friends couldn’t join me but I decided to be bold and was convicted that I needed to go alone. That night I met my husband!!!!!!!!! I prayed for him as I drove off from that cru meeting and asked God to bless him and to bless the friendship I hoped he would allow. We are now married with a 5 month old son. My parents still struggle with my identity in Christ and we’re appalled that I got married outdoors and with a Baptist pastor not a Catholic priest. I unfortunately am estranged from my father and am partially estranged from my mother. Last year in June I felt a tug that I needed to take a step back in order to heal and guard my heart. That same month I found out I was pregnant with my son. I always wished my mom had protected us from my father and now I had the chance to protect my son and new family. I had previously tried to heal my relationship with my mother and we were getting there and I also tried to have a conversation with my dad about the abuse growing up and he tore me down 3 times while trying to repair it all. He doesn’t want to accept the physical, mental and verbal abuse. I am working on seeking God everyday and my husband and I are church hunting after moving to a new city.

Your testimony reached me here in Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷God spoke to me through you. Thanks so much for sharing❤ (I’m leaning English so I’m sorry if I wrote something wrong 😂😂)

I feel like God has led me to this video. I have felt everything you said. My story is long but I felt heartbreak, lost, empty, and fear before Jesus saved me, and when I came to Jesus, fear also came into my life and had me chained just as you said. Now I know it is the enemy and that I'm not the only one. This video inspired me to keep getting closer to the Lord. Please pray for me to keep walking and carrying my ✝️. Thank you so much!❤

This year is going to be graceful for this who hear this...She is so inspiring....She is leading her viewers to God...She is so much blessed

It’s amazing what God brings you to … I’ve been watching you for about 4months now, I was gifted The Purpose Driven Life maybe 3yrs ago I just threw it on my book shelf and didn’t think much of it. I picked it up 29 days ago and it’s changing my life as well…. Then I hear God tell me to watch your testimony video… one I’ve scrolled by a few times… and then I hear that books changed your life as well.. isn’t it neat the seasons God brings you to. ❤

This is so special and moving. I’m watching this on Christmas Day and it’s so inspiring watching you speak about how God healed you and he can heal all of us❤️

Praise the Lord for your testimony, and how He’s blessed your ministry to meet other young women and lead them to the path of God. I love you sister, thank you for your service and your kindness to this generation of women 💖

Thank you for sharing your testimony! God showed me this video this morning, and I had the opportunity to use your testimony to minister to my friend the same evening. Praise God for using you for His glory!

Hearing you talk about Gods love brought me to tears. I just surrendered to Jesus a few nights ago and I just said your prayer at the end of the video and I feel so full of hope. I struggle with panic attacks and general anxiety and I’m praying God will deliver me from this unending fear.. thank you for sharing your testimony Ashley. Such an amazing story! God bless.

Thank you for sharing your testimony. It was such a blessing hearing you and what the Lord has done in your life. I am struggling with anxiety and bad thoughts and I feel like the Lord wants me to put my full trust in Him, that He cares for me and loves me. God bless you all!

I really loved hearing your testimony! What I can relate to is that God finds and meets me in the midst of all my brokenness when I was a mess and when I was really far away from Him. A few years after I got saved, I was getting really lukewarm and filled with pride, my heart was hardening (yet I didn't realize it) and I reached a point where I couldn't feel God's manifested presence for a long period of time (which I believe was a harsh but necessary discipline from the Lord), and backslid for that season of my life. During this time, I was really confused about my identity in Christ, and asked my mother to intercede and pray for me consistently throughout this season. After receiving answers to my mother's prayers (in which God confirmed to my mother and me about my identity as a Christian), I sought the Lord with all my heart, and found Him again (Jeremiah 29:13). Time and time again, God proved Himself to be very faithful; He met me where I was even in the midst of all my pain, heartache, and struggles, and led me to repentance and provided me with His guidance when I would stray from Him. Nowadays, though I still go through many trials, I realize that I should value and prioritize my relationship with God first. His daily guidance and His will for my life is my number one priority. I learned a lot of deep lessons - how detrimental it is to my Christian walk to be lukewarm and to be filled with pride and haughtiness, that one should not depend on feelings but should focus on what the Word says and having faith first and foremost, that seeking Jesus in my secret closet is key, that guarding my heart all the time is essential (against all attacks of the enemy, such as pride, bitterness, anger, etc.), that God loves and cares deeply for me even when I mess up, that God prioritizes and cares more about my heart being right with Him than my ability to get my life together, etc. Trying to live a life that is closely connected with God through remaining in the Word and seeking to please Him above all else is most important, regardless of what difficult circumstances I may face in life.

Thank you for sharing your testimony. I cry every time I watch it! I’m approaching my 30s. And I just feel like I’ve gotten everything all wrong in my life. All of my relationships in my life feel strained (the very few I have). I too would mold myself for other people thinking that would give me the acceptance I was seeking, only to not even know who I really am or why I’m here. Outside validation equated to acceptance for me. Self help books really don’t help, at least not long-term for me. Throughout my life I’ve tried in different ways to get closer to God but became conflicted in the communities I found myself in. But I seriously just need help and feel like I can’t do it alone anymore.. I want to be a woman of grace, peace and light. The kind that you can easily see In those women who have a strong relationship with God, just like you. ❤

Hi Ashley! Thank you for sharing your testimony and battle against the devil. This summer I have really been struggling with intrusive thoughts and waking up every single morning thinking about the thoughts I’m struggling with. Tonight I was lying in bed watching KZread and I thought it’s 11: 30 I should go to bed but something in my heart was telling me just watch Ashley’s testimony before you go to sleep (because I had seen it on my for you page earlier) and man, I truly think the Lord was guiding me to this video. It really touched me, hearing that such a strong believer in Christ has struggled with the same things I am struggling with. This summer I have really been praying that I could just hear God’s voice and what he wants for me and I feel like he is urging me to try these battle cards to battle against the devil. Thank you so much for sharing your testimony, it has given me so much peace and really made me want to continue perusing a stronger relationship with the Lord even though some days I’m feeling hopeless.

I just prayed that prayer and I believe God lead me to her testimony to encourage me to keep going ❤️

Really enjoyed your testimony. I know all about being tormented internally day in and day out with intrusive fearful thoughts. It’s been the toughest battle of my life and there are times I can’t believe something has got this much control over me. I also struggle to make scripture work for me and to believe that I can come out of this. Thank you for sharing your testimony. ❤

omg i loveeee your channel i’ve been binge watching all of your videos❤ you inspire me! praise God!!!

Praise the Lord for what He’s done in your life Ashley 💖 thank you so much for sharing your story and being such an inspiration 🙏

This was truly inspiring. We have verrrry similar testimonies. I’ve been in a rut with my faith & hearing your story really sparked a new fire in my soul, so thank you! God has also put Nashville on my heart - just waiting for doors to open right now. Hearing how he did that for you gives me faith he can do it for me, too 🥰 TY!

I'm 43, live with my mom and I have Type I Bipolar Disorder. Am I a loser? No. I've stopped 4 people from killing themselves. One of them said I was her guardian angel. If you look at me through the world's standards I might be a loser, but I don't care about society's judgments. I am here to do God's work. God cares about your heart and your character and based on that I feel I am pleasing the Lord and living up to my purpose.

I cried when you said God was introducing Himself to you…..thank you for being so so transparent. It helped alot
