If you have been struggling in your Bible studies because God feels silent or far away, I pray this video is not only an encouragement but also a resource to encourage you the next time you need it! So, save the link if needed so that next time you can watch this video when you need it! Sometimes we just need that easy reminder of these truths.
When I was 8 yrs old. I prayed every night for God to bring me a Cabbage Patch doll for Christmas. Seems like a frivolous ask now, but I didn’t know much of the time. God showed his love and grace by allowing my mother to find 5 Cabbage Patch dolls that Christmas for me. Surprisingly I lost faith not too long after that with horrible events in my life. And I’m 50 years old and have come back to God and I’m so thankful I did! I look back at the moment and all the prayers I made every night and my child like innocence, and I strive to go back there. God bless all.
God bless you! I am glad you have come back. I know what God started He will complete in you. God doesn’t waste one single thing in your life. He can teach you through all of it and redeem all the years you were away. He is right there!
@ he is always working. He is so blessed he saved me after being so very sinful my whole life. I need Jesus and love how he works. Now I am trying to share the truth of Jesus!! So much proof if anyone needs each. Physical proof. 🙏🏻🥰❣️ God bless you too !
Faith, you said exactly what I needed to hear! I spent my entire childhood in trauma and thought God wasn't listening to me and getting me out of that situation. Well, God did hear me. I prayed someone would love me unconditionally besides Him and wow...He brought me my husband of 33 years. Let me tell you, I always thought I was unlovable and God proved me wrong! I think I let my disappointment that I wasn't 'rescued' by God when I was a child let me hold back a small piece of myself from Him! Now, my prayers will be different and filled with more gratitude. God Bless you and yours!!!
So crazy you said this, I was just thinking the same exact thing a couple days ago. I remember being so miserable and alone during childhood. I always wanted and wished for my family to be close and full of love…He gave that to me, but it just happened to be my own little family with my husband and sons 😊
Thank you for this encouraging video. I've just been having a conversation about why God allows us to fall, to fail, and to be broken. Having gone through some dark nights of the soul, I can say that the Lord feels most present when I am struggling and just call out, "Help me!" When I admit that I cannot do anything, cannot find a solution. I have also found that praying the Psalms is a really helpful way to get some of those feelings out when I feel God is far away or is not listening. In giving us the Psalms, the Lord has given us the gift of showing us, like you said, that we can be honest before Him (because He already knows everything about us!). Your videos always bless me--thank you for considering the soul care of your viewers!
Thank you Faith so much for this video, I been trough so much & my son too. & now. Pls kindly pray for us . Thank you so very much for this ❤️i needed this so much.
First?! 😂❤ I love your channel Faith! New subscriber here. Pray for me, I'm dealing with a lot of anxiety and fear since childhood. I heard a demonic voice calling my name recently. I'm so sick of it. Jesus I need you! 😩 🙏🏼

Such sweet encouragement! Love this for when I am feeling downtrodden and defeated in life. Faith, do you have any more Bible nerd shirts or sweaters? I love the ones (pink and green) you're wearing in the video!
Yayyyyyyy heyyyyyy Faith Im soooo here for all your videos 🙏🏾 this video came right on time because I've been feeling very down during my Bible studies lately and I need a great pick-me-up..... So I'm so happy you made this video ❤
@HowtoFaithALife all of your videos to me personally are sooooo life changing and information rich... God placed you in my life for a very important reason and I'm forever grateful for that 🙏🏾 thank you Faith
Faith I was wondering if it's a sin to put pages in your bible and notes in your bible. I'm very confused and concerned about this. Can you please help me. God Bless you and your family. Or can anyone help me.
It is absolutely a matter of preference of what helps you to study God's Word effectively. It is not sinful to do so. That is mere mortal man saying it is. Let God lead you, forget what mere mortals have to say about it.
My appeal to every Muslim, my brother or sister, the owner of the channel, I know that it is not my right to comment on your channel, but God is my witness that our circumstances are harsh and forced me to do this. Please forgive me. My brother, there is still a brotherhood of faith. I asked you for a bag of flour. My brother, we women cannot go out among men. There is still a woman with you. My brother, God has honored you. You are men. We are women. We cannot go out or work like you. My brother, where is the brotherhood of faith in your hearts? We are women. There is no brotherhood, no mercy, no compassion, no humanity. And give good tidings to the patient. It is the greatest hope while waiting for what we want. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' How many times I called and talked and tried hard, but no one responded. Oh man, we are with you. My mother ordered us food from the restaurant. More and today. My mother left. Crying. She said, Why areyou crying, my mother? She said, My daughter, I ask. God, that I may be honored by death. She said, Why, my mother. She cursed us. She said, "My daughter, today the restaurant owner insulted me. I said, 'Why?' I said, 'How can I be better than people?' I ask God, my daughter. May God gather me. With death alone, a gathering that is better than this humiliation and this humiliation. It is true. I am saying this. It diminishes my value and respect. But, man. I swear to God that I did not say this. I kiss your boots. I am so hungry that my conscience no longer allows me to let you go and ask us for food. I kiss your boots, man, and I ask you by God Almighty and in the Book of God, man, I kiss your boots, man. He has caused us harm, my brother, so that we can buy a kilo of flour and pay the rent. My brother, have mercy on us. He who is in the show will have mercy on you, He who is in the sky. My brother, this is my WhatsApp number: 00967772168484. Whoever can help us,full name. He will transfer us as much as he can. May Allah reward you. Allah knows that my family and I, our house rent is 15 thousand Yemeni riyals per month, and now we owe 45 thousand for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of those people who do not have mercy. By Allah, my brother, he comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants to throw us out of the house and into the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. We will have until the end of the week, and if we pay him, he will swear by Allah that he will throw us out into the street without mercy. See my situation for yourselves. I ask you by Allah, the Living, the Eternal, to help me. By Allah, the Almighty, even at night we cannot sleep from fear. We do not have mattresses or blankets to warm ourselves from the cold. Everything is flooded from the rain, and we have no one but Allah and then you My brothers, I kiss your boots, don’t turn me away empty-handed. Help us with whatever you can. Is it acceptable to you that we live in this place? We are girls and we have no one. Our father died in a car accident. Consider us your daughters and your honor, and help me with whatever you can. May God reward you with good =>[[}>] ^][/*&;;&;&&;•̥·-•.,¸-•.,¸°꒰·̮ •̥·°,.•¯,.•¯::;;;:::;;🎉😢😢😢;:::🎉😢😢;//^/^&/}:;:;:;;::;;::;;::;;::;;;:::;;;:::.............
This isn’t about the video, kinda is in a way, it’s about feelings, and a relationship I’m in, she isn’t a Christian, I am a Christian, and I know God does and can use a bf/gf to draw someone close to Him, but I’m scared of getting it wrong 🥺. A prayer I’ve had on this: God if she isn’t for me, please take her away, I know I won’t have the strength of heart to break up with her if this isn’t right for me, so please remove her if this isn’t Your will and You don’t have a purpose in it for me.
Praying for you to know the answer.. NOT saying to break up with her, but if she’s not willing to at least HEAR your side and accept that God is first in your life….it miiiight be a sign… but if she’s willing to accept it and be open to at least conversation then stay with her and let God lead you but don’t give up your relationship with God for her.. if she keeps blocking you from church, your relationship with Christ, I would run…
@@kathrynaraguz4816 thank you for this, I felt in my heart earlier about opening my heart up to her about this, she’s been dealing with a lot, I mean a LOT, and I wanna share Jesus with her, and even go back to basics with my faith also, I’ve been backsliding a lot these last 4 years, things have been getting better, but I still feel it, I really do wanna share it with her tho, am I nervous? Yes absolutely, but I wanna open up to her too
Be ye not yoked with unbelievers is a command for a reason. Study what the words yoke and yoked mean and how they apply to this scripture passage. Never is it a good idea to seriously date a non Believer. I know this from firsthand experience. Share Jesus with her by all means yet if she doesn't accept Him as her personal Saviour and Lord then it is time to break up with her and stay split.

How beautiful this was. Thank you. Thank you so much. My prayer is that we will all "get" this and know how very loved we are by HIM.

She says it’s not just as long as you don’t get so caught up in all the “aesthetics” of it, as long as it helps you retain the information it’s okay
