    I find it funny that when we speak about God the views are down 🤔. Gods word will always prevail so keep pushing forward sissy.

      And yes to more Christian lifestyle videos. I've been really thinking about doing some sort of praise and worship on the tube. I need to pray on it and ask God to move me whenever he's ready.

      PurpleReign 413 It Is Beautiful How We May Share So Openly Our Hearts Desire So Freely As In To Share All Across The Span Of Existence & Time; Even Space; Fore I Am In Utah; USA; As You May Be In California; Or Texas Or Even Japan & Still Ye May Read Of My Words.
      I Was Just Inspired To Share Something With You; & That’s What Care Out; So Enjoy That Little Piece Of Heaven As We Are All Little Pieces Of Heavenly Mastery; Thus When We Come Together We Get More Of A MasterPiece! See!
      Cute Huh!
      I Love God!
      Thanks Fore Being Alive!
      Thanks Fore Reading This, Even!
      Thanks Fore Belonging On Earth! Youre Adored; Loved & Honored & Highly Respected! As Are All HueMans!!!
      Thanks Fore Being Beautiful & Sharing Your Thoughts & Feels Fore All To Be Touched Moved & Inspired!
      Fore I Am Happy Of What Did Come Of Your Inspiration To Me; Shows You Are Kin; In Soul To M3, As All Man Are.
      (I Mean That As ManKind) Fore We All Are This Man Kind; So Kind Am I Too Man; Ye Even Wo’s, Ye Even Wo’s.
      Blessed Is Your Path Ahead!

      PurpleReign 413 Please Follow That Intuition! This Is The Spirit InspiringThese Words Intuitively; I Finished That Last Comment & Saw You Other One Below Your First One;
      God Has Been Telling Me To Share More! Preach!
      I Was Feeling As You Are Now. Or Were Maybe This Is A Long Time Ago Man I Should Have Read The Time; Of When You Wrote That; You Could Be 76 Pray & Worship Vidoes In & Cookin On That Good Good Soul Feel!
      Fore I Hope It Is So Fore You!
      So What I Did Was I Just Began! (because That Enate Desire Within You To Start Something Is CalledThe Law Of You; It’s A Future State Based Law; Thusly As It is Your Guide Into The Future! Thus That Desire to Be That is God Telling You To Do It! fore He Did Give Us feet to stand Upon Ye Even To Walk Run & Dance! woah even to climb hurdle tackled or skip; However You Wish To Play!
      So That Desire is as Denzel Washington Puts it Is The Proof & Permissions Slip; Signed Laminated And Documented Stating That Your Desire To Do Be & Or Have A Thing; Things; Or Whatever Thusly Is On Thy Heart, Is Your Real Life Proof That You Are Capable & Do Strive Fore That Fore You Are Worthy Of Greatness & Fame; Fortune Or Whatever So Have You!
      (fame Can & Is Used Fore Gods Will! just As Sex is & Music & Sports!) Too Many Christians Think Only The Devil Used Sex Fore Pleasure; Or Only He Used Music Fore Redirecting Thy Mind To See What We Don’t Want To! yet Still He Is A teacher fore ask why are you directed at the dirt the dark the sex or the drug or tv sugar whatever!! You have purpose and there is purpose fore the devil even if he may know it! He is a helpful tool to us when we get what exactly is his rule. It’s like driving a car and getting angry that there are construction cones Stuck in Your Wheel Well Because You Did Not Heed The Message They Were They To Teach You! Construction Zone! Veer Left!! Thus Is The Devil; He Is Like Pain; It Is There Only To Say You Are Supposed To Lift Up Your Hands From The Burner On Your Stove. Else You Will Be Burnt; & Ye May Desire It; As Ye Do Have Free Will; And We Do Learn Much From Our Burns Suchly Is Why We Desire Them So Much.
      Well I Hope That Helped someone!
      Blessed Are You!
      Remember Gratitude This Day!
      Remember Your Alive! So Be Feel & Act Alive!!!

    Girl, yes! I recently turned down a masters program + job because the Holy Spirit led me to do so, as badly as I wanted them. I also turned down a huge scholarship to a great university because the Holy Spirit led me to. I was going to work into healthcare administration/informatics, but God told me not to go, so I threw that idea out of the way (which was extremely hard because I wanted to work in healthcare since high school and I'm currently 23 and about to graduate with my B.A. in English/Art). I have stopped dating guys because God told me to. Is it easy? NO. Not at all. I need the money and I want the job security and the guy. But, I choose God's will for my life over my own will. I encourage all women to do the same. It is really hard, I'm not going to lie, but you definately want God's will over your own! Now I'm becoming a teacher as God has led me. After graduation I'm returning to my current university for a double masters in Mild and Moderate Disabilities and Art Education, two things that were totally God-led and I have complete peace with and God is blessing me.

    So happy I saw this video. I graduated college back in Dec of 2015, got married 4 months later, and then moved 9 hours from my home and all my family. Once I got to my new area I was not able to find a decent job, despite haveing a degree and it has caused me to really break down. I ended up getting a job that I'm happy for but it's not what I want. Im still here but I leave soon because im having a baby... watching this video has really made me realize that I need to turn to God and let him handel my job situation. Thanks for sharing this 🙂

Just continuing to grow in my spiritual journey and hold tight to my faith. So just listening to your videos and your testimony is inspiring and joyful to watch. 💕

  • @sherriturner7669
    @sherriturner7669 4 роки тому

    I am super late to the party but Im here in 2020, just recently subscribed and want to comment on this video. You hit the nail on the head when you said wanting God to take control and lead. I can totally relate. I am happily married, almost 7 years and we have twin girls. At work today something came over me and in my mind I heard the question "what in the world am I doing?". I know that God has something greater for me and it's been a journey figuring it out. It's been mainly my lack of being inconsistent with my bible reading/prayer life. So now I am doing a reset and going to be intentional about making time for God, making Him a priority 1st in the morning because feeling like you're in the wilderness is so not cool, especially when you know you could have been out lol. I loved the video❤

  • @treasurewithlove
    @treasurewithlove 7 років тому +5

    It is great to hear that you are following God's will for you. Your makeup looks nice btw. I honestly not 100% sure what I want to do career wise. So, videos about that would be helpful. Also, I would like bible study videos. I feel that will help and encourage me.

  • @NahkymaGraham
    @NahkymaGraham 7 років тому +2

    Amen and I would love to see more videos like this. I am 23 and I completely understand what you mean as far as trying to figure out what you want to do with your life and Gods calling for your life. It definitely is a challenge but all we can do is stay prayed up and keep pushing forward. 😘

Seeing other young women walk boldly in faith and seek Gods will for their lives is so inspiring! God is so faithful and he honors those who seek him! There's an undeniable peace and fullness in walking in your God given purpose. My prayer is that you find that. So excited to follow along as you update us!!!

    Hey Leah,
    Thank you so much for sharing these videos with us.
    Here are things that I would like to hear you discuss:
    - How does God speak to us?
    - How to know what God's plan for us? What is our purpose?
    -Can you share with us the stories that built your faith? What are things that made you trust Jesus? Any stories that you have with Jesus?
    - bible studies videos.
    - How to build our character as christians?
    Thanks again :)

    Wow, just came across this video. So timely, definitely in a similar situation. I've gone between thoughts of uncertainty and doubt when it comes to being in a situation similar to yours, but then I remember that this season has brought me closer to Christ. It's a work in progress. But it's really about seeking God.

  • @minimalassembly7893
    @minimalassembly7893 7 років тому +2

    Happy that you're going to be posting more frequently. The Bible studies sound like a great idea.
