Hi! My name is Melody Alisa - welcome to my channel. I lived in South Korea for two years where I met God and I documented my life as an English teacher (check out my Life in Korea playlist for more on this!) Now, I call Atlanta home. On my UA-cam channel, I share my Christian faith and life as a creative, a newlywed, a soon-to-be first time mama through weekly new videos!
Hi, Melody....I had the same thing when I was pregnant with my daughter.. I was bleeding a little I was rushed to the hospital. The ultrasound technician told me that the baby implanted herself under one of the fibroid and shrunk it down to a size of pea. The most amazing part I asked God not to feel labor pain and I didn't my whole labor and delivery was miraculous. Just stay strong and know God is in control and allow him to have full control and rest in that faith. Stay sweet I'm praying for you🥰🥰🥰🥰
this is so encouraging ♥️🙏🏾 thank you so much!
Powerful testimony
Glory be to god.god is so amazing🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
What type of fibroids was it location and the size?? Bless you.
I've realized that God allows us to go through a lot because He wants to do a lot through us, you're only getting stronger
Melody, Thank you, Thank you,. Thank you, Thank you for your transparency, thank you for being vulnerable before us, you helped me sooo much. One thing I know when you go through something when you come out you realize it's for you to strengthen others, you already begun helping me. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you....Mwaaaaahhhh! 💋
Okay if that’s the case WHEN? Not tryna be funny but I’m at my end I’m very very much hanging like cliff hanger at this point
@@destinixshakur God gave me Isaiah 40:31 just recently as I was going through a battle. It really helped me, also intentionally worshiping and praising God actually uplifts you. You might not even feel like it at first but just keep giving God praise for how good He is even if life is looking like hell right now, He will take care of you ❤️
PRAYING A TOTAL & COMPLETE healthy pregnancy, delivery and mommy recovery! I too had fibroids during my pregnancy. 7 to be exact, One that grew larger than my 7lb baby boy. 🥺 Was on bedrest last 2 months. Nonetheless, my pregnancy was good! & baby boy healthy and fine! God is with you. You got this!
P.S. Words of advice, stay off GOOGLE about your pregnancy. It's only upsets you. Just stay prayed up. You'll be fine Dear-Heart! 🥰😘 Some of us just have to bear this pregnancy thing a little harder than others. THANKS BE TO GOD THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO DO THIS! 🤗
Prayers up for a healthy pregnancy, sis 🤍
Tysm ♥️♥️🙏🏾
Transparency is key for God. He loves when we give him the in's and outs of what we are dealing with. Only then can he take full control and handle it all for us. Keep doing what you are doing because it is speaking to us all. God uses us in all stages of our walk.
Melody, I completely understand. I had a huge fibroid growing with my daughter through the entire pregnancy. I was also diagnosed with gestational diabetes while having Graves disease. I delivered a healthy babygirl 6lbs 19inches. I knew our Father in heaven had us covered by His blood. She is 23 years of age in her final year of her Master's program. The favor of God is on her. God has you, Melody. I prayed, spoke over her life daily, and read the Bible to her daily. The word of God is life, use it to combat the enemy's lies. You and the baby will be healthy in Jesus's name. This is your and your husband's blessing. Continue to create an atmosphere of praise and worship. We are praying for you!
I've been through degeneration pain twice during my pregnancy and was actually hospitalized twice because of the excruciating pain. But I made it through it all by God's grace and gave birth to a healthy baby boy 2 years ago. I couldn't give birth naturally because of a big fibroid blocking baby's wait out but I give praise to the Almighty for keeping me and gifting me with my precious son. He knows why I had to go through this and I did come out of all this stronger 💜 Praying you stray strong and healthy through the second half of your pregnancy. Blessings 💜💜💜
Going through the comments, my heart feels so peaceful as I'm seeing the body of Christ coming together to comfort each other. I even got to grab some advice for my own relationship with God.
He will not leave us comfortless.
Praying for God's will to be done in your pregnancy Melody ❤🦋.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivereth him out of them all...Psalm 34:19.
I had a miscarriage in May at around 7weeks,doctor found a fibroid 6.34cm.Was disappointed BUT I have 100% faith in God. He has blessed us already. He said be fruitful and multiply. And in due time, I will conceive again in Jesus name 🙌
This reminds me of Jesus in the garden. Even He didn't want to go through pain but He closed His prayer with, "Not my will but thy will be done." If He hadn't freely given of Himself, where would we be? God sees beyond what we can. Only He knows what He protected you from or prepared you for. And look at this video....you are encouraging and inspiring so many ❤ Your obedience despite pain and circumstances is inspirational. Bigggggggg huggggggg!!! May God continue to bless and keep you 🙏💙
Praying for you!🙌🏾
For me, I just graduated from college and it’s been soo difficult finding a job and that’s been discouraging. Especially since I’ve been praying to God for just some type of direction. More than anything though, he’s showing me to solely depend on him and I’m learning he has me where he wants me.
Girl I feel the same. I lost my job about a month ago. And I'm like God I need to get a job asap. But I know he is showing me the same and how to hear for his voice. Prayers God places u somewhere where u will grow and have peace.
@@jenniferrivera8627 Amen. More than anything, his timing is perfect. Thank you and I pray God continues to keep you and direct you where he needs you. 🙌🏾
It is tough finding a well paying job after graduation. I’ve been there. I work in recruitment. I’d be happy to see if I can give you some tips. Are you getting call backs for interviews?
Meolody this is a word…! When things are harder than what we expect them to be, we tend to forget to trust in Him and remember things we’ve been brought out of. This growth you’re going through physically is soooo important because it’s helping you build a greater spiritual tolerance for you and your family. God bless you; thank you for always seeing the blessings through your experiences and sharing them w/us.
I value your transparency on how as Christians we place human characteristics on God; we get confused, angry, entitled and sometimes that has an affect on our prayer life. Thats honest, and true, and raw. Whats even better is that He NEVER stops loving us, He NEVER forsakes us. He will convict us, but never leave us. Thankyou for this beautiful reminder to be in a constant state of gratitude of His grace ♥️ Praise Jesus for your healing and this beautiful miracle growing inside of you! This is all worth it ♥️
Amen 🙏🏾
Amen
Thank you for sharing your story. I have fibroids and it has made the last 20 years of my life very difficult. I’ve recently married and wondered if having a child would be possible. I’m praying for you!
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.”
Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV
Our Savior suffers with us in our distress. You are not alone.
“Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses) And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.”
Isaiah 53:4-5 NKJV
🙏🏽💙🤍
I try to recall 1 Peter 5:10 CEB when I am going thru tough times. "After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, the one who called you into his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will himself restore, empower, strengthen, and establish you". Without an amount of suffering we are not aware of how much we can endure and how strong we actually are. The things we go through make us wiser, sharper, and increases our endurance. He never promised we would be exempt from pains. He promised that He would stay with us throughout. You have just been taught how much you can endure and a glimpse of what you may have to endure for delivery. Begin to practice and prepare yourself for stress and pain management now. How to relax your mind and body. And how to reassure yourself that God is indeed with you and this will pass. Thank you for sharing Melody!!
I am so blessed by this video. I recently found out I have fibroids. I have been freaking out about the possibility of being a mom but after watching this I am believing God.
Isaiah 55:9
For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
During times like these, it teaches us to pray intentionally. By saying “God, I’m believing that this fibroid won’t harm me, but if that is not your will, give me what I need to get through it”. I’ve found myself convicted many times by praying for what I want and not for God’s will. You will be so much stronger because of this and in hindsight, I believe God will reveal to you the purpose behind your pain. Sending much love to you in this journey and pray this journey gets better from here.
You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you dear,only believe in His report only and work in faith! Like we pray in Africa,"YOU WILL CARRY YOU BABY"!!!
LISTEN! When I say this spoke to me...I'm currently pregnant with my 2nd child (by the grace of God following a miscarriage a couple of years ago) and I prayed fervently that this pregnancy would be different. I asked God that I wouldn't be sick and could remain present (mentally, physically) at my job and in my home. BUT guess what..I'VE BEEN SICKER! I was soooooooo angry with God! I sat on my kitchen floor and just cried out for help. I'm still dealing with sickness, but so thankful that God never leaves us in these moments. When we are angry or turn our backs, He's still right there making his love and presence known to us. Thank you for your transparency!
Even though I walk through the valley of shadow of death, I will fear no evil for thou art with me, my rod & my staff, they Comfort me. - Psalm 23:4.
In this life we will experience pain as Christ did on earth - as stated in John 16:33. Sometimes God doesn’t always give us our hearts desires but he gives us his PRESENCE. Sometimes he doesn’t take us out the storm but He will take us through it. Praying for a safe pregnancy & increased faith during these challenging times. 🙏🏾🤍 God got you. Stay blessed.

I kid you not I was right next to one of the many fibroids my mom had at birth. My dad says till this day he saw them during my mom’s cesarean:). Keep praying mama, your amazing inside and out! I’m 30 now and still getting on her last nerves :). It will get better ❤️🩹
When difficult times come I’m learning to not shut God out and bring him closer like never before. So easy to push him away but faith is what brings him closer. So I’m learning that each day!
This video has me emotional. Sis I feel you right now. I’m 22 weeks and 1 day pregnant and this is my second child. It’s kicking my behind. I have trouble walking, shortness of breath, my hips ache all day, my pelvic just hurts daily, and there’s literally nothing they can do to remedy this so I make it work. I’m on my feet a lot at work so it’s really whooping my butt. Which is crazy because with my firstborn I was able to work like crazy with no issues aside from her coming a month early.
Blessings to you. Lord I ask that you will relieve Melody of the discomfort and continue to protect her growing baby and her throughout this journey to birth.
Love you!
Us preggie women going through it gotta uplift each other and I’m so glad you’re sharing this because oftentimes pregnant women (been guilty of this myself) put on the “I’m fine” front but we are TIRED lol
Keep taking day by day
thank you so much for your transparency. I've noticed that so many believers have been having very similar moments with God. we are being called to trust more than ever. as the world seems to be turnt on it's head. the enemy wants those of us who love god, to move in disbelief. -- I pray over you, your body, your baby and your entire family. you are all covered and protected.
Your share was powerful and moved me more than any video here yet! Thank you for your transparency and keeping it real.
I had a traumatic family situation happen 5 years ago that led me to homelessness and a 7 month hospital stay. Your words spoke tome so deeply and I cried with you as I know that loneliness there and the pain. The lessons I have learned are largely the same too. Trusting His sovereignty, simply getting through the pain/hardship, and testifying later. He shows up in unexpected ways- like those nurses.
My mom also came and helped and God has used us both for healing in our family. His plan is higher and no one can stop Him like Job says. When we repent and see He is always worthy of praise we can really heal. Thanks again!
Am going through the most difficult times in my life.I feel like my mental health is deteriorating every single day.It is really confusing because l talked to God before l made this decision that put me in this situation.Sometimes l get myself thinking maybe this is not what God wanted for me from the beginning.But God has reassured me that He knows what am going through and l will get out victorious.That reassurance from God and peace within my heart keeps me going.
I don't normally comment but this time I had to, my sister and I have collectively gone through what you are describing, her with the fibroids and pregnancy and me with the degenerating fibroids. My sister was told she could not get pregnant because of the massive size of her's but God had other plans and she went full term and the fibroids shrank after giving birth, with no pain.
Jesus said in this world we will have tribulations, Peter counted it a blessing to suffer for his Lord, when we can't understand God's hand, we have to trust his heart. ROM. 5: 3-8. This is the text we need to reflect on when we suffer. I hope this will encourage you as your message encouraged me. Much Blessings.
Beautiful testimony and words of encouragement sis. Continue to share what our father give you. Your words definitely hold weight, it’s valuable! Thank you so much. Blessings queen🤗❤️❤️❤️
Thank you beyond words. I cried through most of your video and God has reminded me in so many ways of His goodness in the midst of our pain and disappointment. I am now 21 weeks and my pregnancy has been interesting to say the least and some of my prayers seemingly went unanswered. God is so sovereign. Thank you for your obedience.
Not me crying right with you 🥺🥺. But that part about not forgetting what God has done for you even during rough times really touched me.Didn’t think that’s the message I would get out of this video. Thank you for sharing ❤️🙏🏾 and praying that you will have a pain-free, safe and amazing rest of pregnancy
God will always come through but it may not be in the way we want or expect. We saw how He was with you when they were not even sure if you were pregnant. The doctors said one thing but Jesus said another. Whenever you feel down or discouraged I hope and pray you can look back and how He worked a miracle then and can continue to make miracles. We love you Melody and we are so excited for you. Praying for you! But more than anything Jesus loves you and He sees the hurt that you feel and He still loves you and will carry you through it all. You do not have to take care of it at all. I know God will use everything for His glory and our good. I can not wait to see what He teaches you and how He strengthens you throughout this beautiful journey!
Learning that God will do whatever it takes to get our attention. Any trials and any hardships are worth it all if it brings us to our knees and focuses our hearts on Him. If it brings us to the place where He is the satisfaction of our lives and He is everything to us then that is all worth it.
AMEN! It’s so easy to praise the Lord during “good” times but surrendering + trusting during trying seasons is the true testament.. it also made me realize a lot of my prayers were more of me asking for things vs. focusing on others. Thanks for your honesty 🙏🏼
I almost cried when you started crying! I will add you to the prayer list. I learned that God allows pain for purpose to be birthed. Sending love your way and I hope you stay under His protection always.
This was a testimony that was needed for so many of us who have fibroids. I was truly blessed and had to share it because it truly was a beautiful testimony. Thank you for being transparent because you touched someone right there; more than you know🙏🏾🙌🏾 God is so good; for His ways are higher than ours.
For one going through a four year separation from my family I feel encouraged.
There’s a thing with human memory, we quickly forget God’s goodness to us, among many other things.
We’re quick to ‘pick on’ God each time an event don’t go in our favor, especially after praying according to His will.
I last saw my son in June of 2018 and was unable to witness the birth of my daughter in March 2019. So I’ve never even seen her physically and vice versa.
I recall many occasions I’d pray and believe my visa was gonna be approved so I can be with my family but then I’d be denied!
I’d be offended with God and keep malice with Him for weeks.
Looking back today, I’m in a much better place spiritually now. My prayer life is flourishing and am spiritually aware than I’d ever be were it not for my predicaments.
I’m learning to live in surrender and trust in God and longings for His leading daily consume me.
Thank you for your down-to-earth honesty and yielding to be open in your video today.
“May God bless you, and keep you, may His face shine upon you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord turn His face towards you and give you peace’.
Amen!!!
I learned that my faith still needs to grow I was having faith for 2 days and all of a sudden I was going through it and I realized he has done so much good for me and just because I’m going through I shouldn’t lose faith I should rejoice in the moment💖❤️
Oh my! You are tearig me up, I have 3 sons, and no daughter, but i am crying like you're my daughter. So sorry, Sweetie! I am praying for you. God's character is good; be encouraged. Keep the faith; I've got you undergirded in prayer.
Thank you for your candor....as Christians we all question God when our prayers are not answered the way we want them to but as you came around to see in the end is that God's ways are higher than ours, and even though He allows us to go through challenges He helps us to get through it. I pray you will have a healthy pregnancy (you and baby)! And always remember Jeremiah 29:11.
I’ve noticed that going through difficult seasons definitely build and strengthen my faith like a muscle. So far being able to overcome such huge obstacles has served to keep me focused on God’s Word when new trials are afoot. I just try my best to recall those seemingly impossible times when He came through for me and it helps me to continue to trust in Him for the future. And He is so faithful y’all. How can I not?!
Thank you for opening up to us like this! I get like that with God sometimes and always end up thanking him afterwards for “sticking with me” while I got through it. 😂 Praying for you and the little one though the rest of your pregnancy and afterwards 🙏🏾
Very encouraging and very real. I thank you for your honesty because it feels really good to know that I can relate with someone about when our desires asked of God in prayer goes another way. It really is like that sometimes and it can be really hard and discouraging but I always try to remember that GOD IS SO GOOD and he never does anything/allow anything without a reason or something to be produced out of it. It builds our character and refines our faith because we see that no matter what, we just need to trust God in his goodness and surrender everything to him saying “thy will be done, and thy will alone.” He is working out everything for our Good.
Romans 8: 28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
Wow the Lord has me reading Deuteronomy as well. And you hit the nail on how the book is. It spoke to me as well to remember what the Lord has done and brought me threw when I go through current things. Praying for the rest of your pregnancy journey. love you sister in Christ. Gods got you, He will keep you and sustain you. 💕
Old Testament is wild! But thank you so much ♥️♥️🙏🏾
Mel this hurt me to the core as a Christian as well and I pray that God would touch and heal u from everything that is not correct in your body, I pray that he strengthen your faith, hope, trust in him and help u in everyway possible. Keep praying Sis
I have fibroids as well and it make my periods goes crazy and the pain is real but I praying about it and intaking natural products so I wouldn't have to get surgery cause I understand when u do it they still come back.
Knowing God from this level - a pain level is beautiful. Wow...
I fear this kind of thing, like you Melody, I’ve never been sick.. went to the ER once as a kid over an injury but other than that no medications, no emergency.. you just never know! So glad you’re okay.. you’re such a light!
So, I loss my 19 year son in a tragic accident. It has been devastating to our family. God has proven that His grace is indeed sufficient.
Thanks for your transparency...im sure it will help alot of women who are also not going through a not so "easy" pregnancy.... I had fibroids..one of which needed surgical removal so I could get pregnant..thankfully they did not grow during both of my pregnancy...
I'm wishing you a healthy delivery and uneventful rest of pregnancy
U definitely set & concord. You have let the Lord use you to help others in more ways than one. I Dealt with it myself. God Got You 4 Sure!! THANK U 4 SHARING.😇 BTW, A 🙏has been sent up 4 delivery & baby. My lesson upon going threw things, is definitely #1 TO TRUST HIM NO MATTER WHAT. #2. AND when the enemy get to messing, LOOK OUT A BLESSING IS COMEING😇
I recently came across your page and subscribed to your channel because of your faith. I am a new mom who also struggled with fibroids. In fact, I had a myomectomy less than a yr of getting pregnant and my Dr. was unable to remove them all so I get it. It is scary, very scary but God is good all the time. Your faith will carry you through. Just take it easy, stay off your feet and no stress please. Unto you a child will be born 😘
A lesson that I’ve been learning this year really has been OBEDIENCE. Obeying the voice of God and trusting His leadership. It’s amazing because He’s teaching me to come into alignment with His purpose for my life. It’s a tough breaking but it’s so worth it.
Thank you so much for your transparency! It’s not always and easy thing to share. But I pray that you’ll continue to grow in your faith through this season. Much love to you and your family! 💛
A testimony:
I took a leap of faith and moved to a different state because it felt like the Lord was leading me to & was opening doors for it to be done. It was a huge leap because many from my family were advising me not to. When I first moved things were fun, but things have been dying out, and now I'm just trying to pray about how I should be going about this. I was hoping for things to keep "falling into place," but it doesn't feel like that's happening anymore.
Anyways, I'm still trusting in God, and praying to stay surrendered to His will. He gives me hope each day, and for that I'm grateful!🙏🏾
Love your videos Mel!❤ thank you for them
Sis... Wow. I feel for you. Recently I've been thinking about how much a woman goes through when she's pregnant n hearing your testimony just now, I'm like why, God? She already has to go through the regular symptoms n hardships of being pregnant. But then... You mentioned the good behind it. The Lord allows everything to happen for a reason. It can be to show you your strength indeed or to encourage someone else. And since it's so rare, maybe that woman would find it as a blessing to hear someone going through what she did or is. But God is sovereign like you said sis. I've always been so used to God giving me favor and answer my prayers so when I had this discomfort in my body for months and I've been praying and praying, I got frustrated. I'm like, why God? Why won't you take this away? Then I remembered Paul. The thorn in his side. N I keep reminding myself that God's grace is sufficient and He will give me strength and nothing will last forever. It may be months of discomfort or pain but it won't be forever. That's what encourages me. It's not easy.
Praying for a healthy pregnancy and a safe delivery
I am currently going through a challenging season and my friend who’s daughter has been in and out of hospital encouraged me. She said she prayed for peace more than anything during this season. She reminded me that God is good and faithful and we can expect Him to see us through our hardest seasons. I felt the Holy Spirit asking me how will I wait in my waiting season? How is my heart posture as I am waiting for my miracle and breakthrough? Peace that surpasses all understanding is what I’m praying for and praying for you as well and healing and a safe pregnancy.
Hi melody! For me, I think during recent difficulties God is teaching me obedience (to continue showing up & represent him) , patience (which is not just waiting, but the manor in which I wait) & to simply trust that he knows what he’s doing. Often after we go through difficult times we are thankful for it because it forced us to grown, to learn & it transformed us. Thank you for your transparency. Pregnancy is not perfect, but your baby will be! I am praying for a healthy, peaceful & joyous experience for you & your husband. 💕
Hey Melody, You are a divine daughter of our Father. He makes no mistakes. Your growth in Him is amazing and truly felt. I do believe that God has a major setup for you and your family. I pray that you continue to abide in Him like never ever ever before. Trust. Trust. Trust. Your “test” is of course your testimony!!!! Hopefully you’re journaling your journey. May God bless you, wrapping His protective hands around you.
Hey Melody. Glad you and baby are doing better☺️ I was just in a car accident on my way to work, but I’m well. It’s the enemy because we (me and my church) are just finishing up a fast. (7more days to go)🙏🏾 just wanted to ask for your prayers to keep pushing forward as I continue to pray for a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Thanks in advance ☺️ Be blessed and thank you for great content. It really helps🤗
As I'm listening to you speak I just hear raise it up the song from the movie August rush and the chorus just sticks out, it says hang in there with me, so don't give up, when pressures come down.
God's got you Mel, I'll keep praying for you. ❤️✨
Babygirl, you're gonna be just fine. God's got you.
It will be okay. God has everything under control.
Thank you so much for sharing Melody! This was a beautiful testimony story and very timely. I just went through a tough week and felt that same frustration with God. I didn’t even want to read my Bible or listen to my gospel music 🤦🏾♀️ Then I had a similar epiphany!
God doesn’t owe me anything. The simple fact that he sent His son on the cross so that we can have eternal life is enough. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, God tells Paul after he’s complaining about a thorn in his flesh “...my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness”. (So powerful. I encourage everyone to read that chapter.) And even STILL God has brought me through sooo much. How dare I distance myself because things aren’t going my way. My biggest takeaway is pray that I submit myself to His will instead of the other way around. I’m so glad you and baby are okay 🥰 And love your channel so much. Literally one of a kind 🙏🏾❤️
I have a fibroid as well and it’s on my left side they said it got a little bigger..but the baby is healthy and that it shouldn’t effect my birth..n it scared me at first because this is my 3rd n nothing like this happened with my other two..but honestly God has been very good to me n baby…n i pray he covers you n baby and that delivery is a good one…n May Gods will be done many blessings
Give thanks to your vulnerability ! This baby is here to break things that no longer serve you ! God is so gracious he is using these experiences to draw you closer to him and show you his loyal limitless loving nature . I encourage you to consider two things .
1) please please please Get a doula to guide you through these experiences . As a doula myself one thing I’ve done for a client that may be helpful Is to write out words of encouragement, devotions , affirmations , prayer points on sticky notes or hard cards to place around the birthing spaces as you go through the various stages of active labor this can help you stay focused on god as you get to that point of surrender .
2) include in your diet seamoss And Okra the gelatinous nature of these two will help baby and fibroid degeneration an easier smother process .
Praying for you. There is nothing too hard for our Father. Keep believing and it will be done! I’m certainly learning to trust God more while in the midst of a tribulation. The more I pray while in the storm, the more peace he’s given me.💗
Thank you for your honesty! I’ve shared a lot of my journey overcoming fibroids naturally. So I know it’s definitely possible to be healthy and have a healthy pregnancy. Just keep eating well, take care of you and baby and of course trusting The Lord. Praying for you sis 🙏🏾
Thank you for transparency Melody! I too was diagnosed with fibroids and i’m hoping to have a baby one day. Praying for you.
Theses past two years God has taught me that there’s always a purpose in everything we go through, even the painful seasons we go through. Continue to be transparent with God and I pray he will show you the purpose in everything you experience in this season and I pray that you will have a wonderful pregnancy.
Thank you so much for sharing ❤️
During those tough seasons, I really had to learn to trust God and trust the process
Don`t cry we love you, and you belong to God so you are fine. You will have so many stories to share with us and as faith based content creators we tend to be too hard on ourselves but we also go through stuff. we are all praying for you.
Your transparency is beautiful.
Those fibroids will not hinder or complicate anything else in Jesus name!
He is teaching me to be still & remember HE is God!
Praying for you!🙏🙏
First of all, I am so glad that both you and baby are safe and that you are doing better physically. 🙏💛 Continuing to pray for a smooth recovery and a safe rest of your pregnancy. God is doing a new thing, and I pray that when it is complete that you will look back in awe and wonder at what God has done. Much love and kudos to X for being a great husband and the nurses for their loving care!
We love you mel ♥️
im coming out of a few months of numbness and fear and anxiety. what I've been learning is to stay at the Fathers feet, to run to Him with my joy and sorrow because He really does care for me. also, I will be praying for you and your family, its sad to hear everything you've been through with your pregnancy so far
definitely shed a few tears as you shared. your obedience is not in vain. I encourage you to listen to mav city’s ‘wait on the Lord’ and let it encourage you. The Lord will renew your strength in this season. sending you love 🤍
You’re doing great sweetie 📸 God will never give you what you cannot handle ! It’s through the most difficult challenges that it’s sole purpose is to show you your strengths and how blessings happen in disguise ! You’ll have a very prosperous birth to your baby 🤎
Thank you sweetie for sharing your heart 💯🙏💕🙏💞💜
I will be praying for you Melody. Thank you for reminding us that through the hardest things God is with us, and there is always something good that we can take away from it if you look closely. Rom 8:28 We love you!!!
Thank you for being so honest!
Praying with you mama. You're only getting stronger. God loves you, more than you can ever imagine. Keep praying & rest.
Melody your transparency is what the world needs more of. People to hide behind problems instead of reveal them. So thank you and your vulnerability led many of us I'm sure to pray for you. Thank you for being open. Much love and prayers 💜🙏
Blessings to you & your spouse! This same issue occured with my Mother when she was expecting me. It was not easy, but I am now 40ish & Mom is great! Be encouraged!💚 Trust God!!!
God knows us from the inside out it’s hard on the face of difficulties to not doubt I only pray for strength as you go through this pregnancy and I hope your baby continues to be healthy. Take care of yourself Melody! God made you and he knows you and the baby he’s gifted you with so I’ll hold on to his promise to keep you and all his children safe
Thank you for sharing with us, Melody. I pray the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly. It was nice seeing you being candid & honest about what's happened.
I've found out a few things that have been difficult to come to terms with recently but each time God has made so that I've found out at a time when I can take steps to remedy the situation or lead me to someone who could help. i'm so grateful for his love & mercy on me. Your story is a testament to this too. xx
I love your honest and rawness in this
Aww, Melody, this video really touched my heart! Thank you for being so vulnerable and obedient to the Lord to be transparent. It is so hard to pray for something and feel like God did not come through, but God is so good and cares so deeply for us. The Lord is reminding me right now to also surrender to his sovereignty. I pray that God continues to sustain you and your body through your pregnancy, and for a healthy baby. I am an RN and it just makes me so happy to hear how they cared for you!
Also, Thank you for sharing your journey and walk with Lord, on this youtube channel! I watched some of your other videos from a couple of years ago and your testimony. It is so evident that God is moving in your life. You really are a blessing!
YOU ARE A CHOSEN ONE!🙏Melody the Lord is with you
I had Hyperemis with both my pregnancies. I was so sick in and out of the hospital. And I too asked God, what meaneth these things? He showed me my strength comes from Him. So when I come across speed bumps in the road ahead, I could look back and see how He carried me through those tough seasons. And they are seasons!! You have so many wonderful blessings in your life right now. And I will be praying for you and your husband through this season of pregnancy. Stay encouraged, God is with you.
😂😂😂😂😂😂…you’re so sweet and funny and I love it….the out of breathness ( not a word) has me cracking up 😂😂😂. God was there he just didn’t move how you wanted him to and that was to increase our faith . I’m in a similar situation myself and did the same thing…when you just said that the doctor was there already familiar with you and the nurse’s were so nice , I was convicted in that moment. Sounds like Testimony time to me 🤔🤔🤔🤔. Thank you for sharing 💜💜💜…
First off Melody thank you for being so transparent and real in such a public way, there is so much power in that! I have also been in a very trying season and was so frustrated with God because I was praying and believing for Him to answer my way. However, I’ve learned these past weeks that God cares more about our character than our comfort and when He doesn’t answer the way we want it’s because it’s in our best interest which in our mind it’s not our best interest. Also that our pain can be used for the benefit of someone else because unfortunately pain and suffering is inevitable even with God. I can testify that your faith will be made so much stronger and you’re going to experience God in ways you haven’t seen before!
Stay encouraged and keep your mind on God. What the enemy meant for your defeat, God will use for your victory. God always wins and He’s always good❤️ I’ll keep praying for you!
Praying for you sis!! And would like to ask you to please pray for me too. I’ve been dealing with fibroids for over 15 years. I have had 2 surgeries and yet they continue to return and grow. I turned 47 this year and now I’m praying I get approved for a hysterectomy!!! I’m severely anemic and look like I’m in my 3rd trimesterof pregnancy and my stomach is in constant pain …so iam praying for total healing for you and the baby and for God to restore your faith in Jesus name…Trust me we have all beefed with God before, I recently lol Godbless
Oh sweetie congratulations on your bundle of love ❤️: advice from mother of 3 my last born I was told he was gonna have complications brain wise but I trusted god my husband was in tears we were shocked but I was seven months at the time I prayed to god and trusted him my little boy is smart after he was born we did a scanner on his brain God is good they couldn’t find anything.. Please stay blessed and I pray that you have a wonderful birth delivery..
Hey lady! Hearing about your pain is making me cry, I'm so sorry you had to go through that, that sounds traumatic. Your faith is amazing through this though, I'm inspired how you keep leaning on God! Praying for you, I hope the rest of your pregnancy is just a walk in the park!
Thank you for your honesty. Thats so tough! I too have a fibroids and prior to diagnosis I had miscarriages. I won’t be having kids since Im now in my 40’s. But thanking God he is bringing you through. Will pray for you and your baby.
Thanks melody so much I waited to get pregnant till marriage and now am married but the baby is not coming becoz of fibroids I kept on asking God why becoz I believed in him tried to do the right thing but bum bad new but at the end of the day God remain God and ever pain has purpose so thank you so much for sharing
He makes all thing work together for our God and by his stripes we healed and I will carry my children and you will have all the number of children you want in Jesus name
Gods gonna help you Petuah
It’s okay mamma, it’ll all be worth it when the baby gets here.
Girl Melody (wow that reminded me of the show The Game lol) but this video! This maybe one of my fav videos from you. The vulnerability is just such a blessing being real and honest with your battle with the Lord but also pregnancy. It just so so relatable. Thank you for your obedience in sharing this. 🤍
You got this Queen and God got you as different as it may seem or feel Thankyou for sharing your testimony they all come with a test
