    One of the best and most relatable, real life examples for how hard we walk and run, but often are going nowhere!

    Heavenly Father hear my cries. I’m seeking guidance through fasting, prayer. As a single mother I feel so alone. God I know my faith in you will get me through my hardships I’ve been facing with my sons as a single mother. Both of my sons are special needs and require much from me. Lord I’m trusting your plan but as I struggle to pay bills every month and as I struggle to buy groceries I ask that you give me strength to hold my head up because I’m ashamed. Get me through this Lord Jesus.

      You have to pray, believe he cares and will answer and real important, you must thank him for answering the prayer you just asked for. Believe and it shall be.

    I ran from God and North Carolina 14 years ago and the past two years he's been cleaning up my life and making my heart soft again. I'm struggling with one thing but I know he's got this. He's showing me who I really am. I run to him now.

      As a young man who was raised Christian but didn’t really find my true faith until around 5 years ago. I struggled with what your 15 year old is probably struggling with right now. My Dad knew that he couldn’t change me so he didn’t force religion anymore than he already did but he did set a good Christian example for me in which I eventually understood overtime and led to me growing WAY closer to God. I’d say be careful with forcing it too much on him or it will push him away further but do set a good Christian example for him and God will handle the rest. 🙌🏻🙏

    I have lost family members cuz of their 'personalities', dysfunction & their self-righteousness. Well the apple 🍎 doesn't fall far from the tree, as that's the way mom is. I got so tired of being yelled at BCS they haven't grown up & matured enuf to fix, surrender and let God make them new and his image. It breaks my heart to see how toxic they are. They have burnt bridges with most everyone else in the family and probably many non related folks. They are so delusional and are going to live out the rest of their lives alone & defend how perfect they are. So very sad. Thank you, Pastor Steven for making this so eye opening, relatable and with practical, spiritual ways to tackle these issues. You are truly annoited.
