No waisting time! I rejoined the military after my divorce and I'm now 26 years old thankful to God that I didn't waist any more time, "marrying God's plan for my life"🧬❤🎉
I needed that word today. At 65, I have struggled in this thing called "time." Sometimes I fretted over it, felt embarrassed... and sometimes God let me know that time was in His hand and that I was right on time. Other times He showed me how my procrastination, disobedience, or something else led to a missed opportunity to share and care for someone. Today, though, it's just this room in my house that I have been avoiding to clean. I am 'bout to clean it right now before my husband gets home in 2 hours. Move, girl! Move! Sheila from Pittsburgh
@ChrystalHurst my name is Sheila as well. I missed I feel the opportunity to minister to someone. She was In a nursing home for years and I was one of the few people she allowed in her space. Now she is gone. How Does this regret fuel ?
So needed this today at 53 yrs of age! I have so many things on my heart that I feel have been given to me by the Holy Spirit! Even things from 20yrs ago as you mentioned. I just need to let go of the idea that I need a perfect home to open up my home to others in need. Thank you for your words today that have spoken to me so deeply! I will take that first step in Jesus name!
I took my first step. I wanted to spend more time with God & in His word. So now, when I get up in the morning, after the bathroom, I go straight to my chair where I keep my Bible. I spend at least half an hour, but most times I find I'm there more than an hour. We have an amazing time.
I started my business immediately after I separated from my ex husband, after years of procrastinating. I knew it was the one thing I would regret in my old age if I hadn't pursued it. I am so glad I did it.
THANK YOU!! This was so needed in my life. I just turned 50 and was feeling like my life was just beginning but I needed to make that first step. My first step is going to be waking up 30 minutes earlier to read God's Word so that I can "Marry God's plan for my life".
Crystal girl!!!! I love you for being YOU! I so needed this message 3 years ago!!! I’m happy to hear that you and I share some of the same struggles! Before Covid, I had many regrets, but Since Covid, and after taking my first step, Jesus Christ has blessed me to published 6 books, be a mentor to young ladies, minister and feed nursing-home patients, and homeless people in Fort Worth cold iced water and fresh fruits! I have my own UA-cam channel and T-shirt business. And yes, I’m still behind, but I’m making progress and I’m loving it! It’s like watching myself grow from nothing to something good❤️Unlike before, Now I wake up every morning looking forward to what the day will bring! Thankyou Lord! I love you LORD! Thank you Jesus for not only waiting for me, but too, for helping me discover my abilities despite my fears!!!!Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah🎉🎉🎉❤️♥️❤️Thanks again beautiful Crystal❤️♥️
Omg, you just described my life in the first 2 minutes 😂 I ALWAYS feel like I have more time than I actually have. I feel that 1hr is enough time to conquer the world (figuratively). It’s normal for me to miss my flight 😬
I want to say thanks God for your channel. I really need this message. In my case I move from my country 3 years ago when I Thought my life was going according to my plan in every area. But I have a wonderful new life with a kind husband, a son 👶 and IM so happy. But I finding hard to accept that my professional life and career is no the same way yet, and maybe is going to take more time! I’m working hard to achieve my goals and constantly I feel overwhelmed because I want to be a perfect wife, mother and successful professional. Today I take my first step to get and marry with God’s plan in this area ❤
Gurl! I feel like we’re truly sister girlfriends in real life! But 👏🏾 this 👏🏾 one 👏🏾 right 👏🏾 here 👏🏾!!!!! “Running hard for goals God didn’t assign to me.” Lord I thank you for my sister friend and the ministry you have planted in her. 🙏🏾 Minimizing Distractions
Thank you so much.....I am 35 with 2 kids .....living with my parents and I really want to move out but have been so scared coz I have really made bad decisions in the past.....thank you so much.
Chrystal, I just want you to know I love what the Lord is doing in and through life. You have been helping so many of us to see more clearly the purpose of God for us through His word, the inspiration of His Holy Spirit and your shared experiences. I love and appreciate you. God bless you and your team!
THANK YOU!!! God keeps talking to me...I know He is waiting on me. I've passed this along to family and friends. I needed this today!! God has given me an assignment...and I've not done it. I will choose the ONE thing THIS day!! Thank you for provoking me!!
Crystal!!!❤🎉❤ Girrrrl, this IS powerful....every minute of it!! WOW ❤..Thank you for your heart and intention and desire to teach. I hear you...I see you...Iam MOVIng!! My first dominoes effect is to minimize distructions.
Wow this was powerful, thank you for Blessing with this message, one think to move for me is to to become consistent reading the word. I do daily but I have to be intentional study , study study . Thank you again. The rest will fall into place.
For me I believe my first step is to read more. My bible and reading in general. I love writing but I'm lacking in imagination at the moment. And everything seems to be pulling me from doing that... As you said I need TO BE INTENTIONAL. Thank you 💚
People are people, and people always seem to hurt me... I'm so over it. Later for the haters. And if you ask me about trust, for this world I have none
Whoo Crystal!! You hit the nail on the head with this one! This is me, always running late! My first step is minimizing distractions! Love how you said, "do it in the fear"!
Believe me it works like a charm. I get up early, go for a run, read my Bible, have breakfast and get to work at least 10 minutes before my scheduled time. It helps that I am not working in consulting (over 60 hours a week) anymore, and I also moved to a small town. Enjoying this season of my life to the fullest because I know things will change but at least I have learnt the art of slowing down.
I got to do something about my sleep habits. Stay up late sometimes and just can’t get up early enough most of the time to not be rushing. I did better when I was younger 🤦🏽♀️ now I’m about to be 63 this Friday I’m tried of rushing. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hello Crystal, I really love your channel, it inspires me, when I click on your channel, I know I’m going to get fed with Gods word. I know God is speaking through you to me, I don’t ignore it, I except in and try to apply whatever he’s saying to me. I love your transparency, your honesty and your courage to speak not your truth but Gods truth. I honestly watch your whole family on UA-cam. Y’all have gotten me through some hard rock bottom times, during my time of God pruning me, I’m still going through the pruning process. Which is painful but beautiful, I love how God is changing me. It’s like I’m actually a part of your family, I have your dads study Bible and his Bible commentary. I also went through marriage counseling with your church although I live in Miami. I paid my tithes to your church until God found me another church home after Covid. I pray one day I will meet your family. I so sorry for the loss of your mom, it really hit me hard, I watched the whole funeral online. She was such a humble soul, she was very elegant and classy. Thank you and your family for spreading GOD’S WORD to the world.❤
Resonated with this so much. Thank you Crystal for this! My first step is to make a plan to simply move. To be consistent in progress. The first domino is minimizing distraction and using the time I do have to make that plan and execute.
Chrystal I love your energy and your heart. At 67, I feel most of the time that I have missed out on so much God wanted me to do. Thank you for helping me to stop fretting and focus on my now. I needed to hear this message.
I just wanted to say that….that ever since I found your channel…I just feel…so…blessed. Places I felt lost in, the Holy Spirit gives me guidance through your words. It just amazes me that how thoughtful God is to create people that are tribe to to the soul while feeding our inner spirit. I just wanted to say thank you for your obedience to the God we serve and the courage to keep showing up for others.
I finally let my husband go. He cheated 9 years ago. I should have left 9 years ago, but we are separated now and I'm filing for divorce. Thank you Chrystal!
The first domino is to marry Gods will for my life and remove distractions in my time. I’ve distracted myself lately with a good show to silence the voice of “I’m behind”. Time to do the thing!
THIS was so powerful and timely for me! I sincerely don't know how to be more emphatic. Our Father used u ima mighty way to share this word just as u did! I literally have been praying that His will for my life aligns with the plans for my life so that i don't waste any more time!! I think my blockage was fear and loneliness....my first domino is to purge my home, so that i can have clarity physically then mentally. THANK YOU 4 yielding to the Holy Spirit with this message!
This was so good. I’m like you, I always think I have more time than I do. The first domino is to give up sugar, I sabotage my workouts everyday. I also need to make a certain time for Bible study with God on a consistent basis.
"Marry your plans with God's will." So good! 👩🏾💻 I am taking copious amounts of notes. I pray that my discernment grows in this area; I keep thinking I am not doing enough or too much. Time assessment is something I want to develop more. Thank you for this timely word. That 'Janet did it" resonated, lol. More than you know. 🙏🏾❤ One thing: Submit the request.
13:50 OMMMMGGG, my neighbor just got snappy with me because I blocked her driveway a bit. In my eyes she did a little much so I did the same lol. I’m GLAD I didn’t curse at her because I REAAAAALLY wanted to.. but I could have just apologized and kept it pushing. I just might do that..
Why was Chrystal talking to me so hard today? Can you see me over here in Barbados? 👀😄 I really needed to hear this today. Thank you. I actually prefer when it's you alone 🙂
Thank you Chrystal My one thing is eliminate distractions…. Discontinued the notifications on my phone have a set time(s) to check emails and messages!
I need to not hold on what’s not working in my life, need to make to call to tell my soon to be ex spouse, I can’t do Life with him. It’s a long story. Been separated since November, But I know God doesn’t want want me to live in misery. I ask my self Do I fully trust God in this process? I need to let him know and it’s not fair to me or him. Praying for the strength for the call and move forward. Thank you for this! Praying 🙏🏻
Thank you for this practical application Word!!! I need to make a move. I want to use my time wisely. Focus on reading more both the Bible and other books. My first step is to look up Bible reading challenges and look at some book recommendations list. Then do!! Thank you😊
I am really enjoying this! Lol Currently at the part you said you were having a bad day and so was the person at the dry cleaner. You are hilarious! I love your spirit and authenticity! Thank you for this much needed Word! ❤
So for me, it’s “making a move” Mainly me moving out of Gods way . Striving towards new ventures in my life, and intentional about the spending time in his word and making time to just sit in his presence. I am a known procrastinator and struggle severely with indecisiveness. So instead of doing something, I’ll do nothing and that’s not the way he set this thang up for me 😊 . But 2023 is my year of move, making, and soul shaking 🫨
No waisting time! I rejoined the military after my divorce and I'm now 26 years old thankful to God that I didn't waist any more time, "marrying God's plan for my life"🧬❤🎉

Get it, Sheila! Move and do what you can 🙂
@ChrystalHurst my name is Sheila as well. I missed I feel the opportunity to minister to someone. She was In a nursing home for years and I was one of the few people she allowed in her space. Now she is gone. How Does this regret fuel ?
It’s through forgiveness that we move forward and through action that we lose regret.
My first step is to minimize distractions and financially invest in myself to meet a goal.
That sounds like a good first step! Keep going!
