This is one of my favorite episodes so far!😁 Candace, I so appreciated your sharing your hard conversation with God about needing time and grace to make the change or be obedient. I’ve been there. Now I’ve got to go back and listen to this again. The Holy Spirit was working with you and Priscilla in this episode. So good.
I totally believe that the prayer that Priscilla is talking about is a prayer that my mom always prayed for me. And because of that I can say that I am grateful to God for having a drama free life. I am praying the exact same prayer for my kids. I love you two ladies, I feel like you are my big sisters. I am an Ugandan watching you from the USA.❤❤
This season has been so impactful for me. As someone who is just starting their walk with god, I can't thank you ladies enough for your wisdom & guidance. The way you carry yourselves, the knowledge you've acquired over the years and the relationship you have built with the man upstairs is so inspirational. Learning about God can feel so overwhelming (especially when starting from ground zero) but you both explain things so clearly and relatably that it feels like I'm just having a chat with my gal pals lol 😉 Again, thank you SO much for this and I can't wait for the next episode!
Candace! This is the best season yet! I love you, love Priscilla and the two of you together are just the most encouraging combo. This has been such a trying season in my life and I look forward to these episodes week after week. I’m a parent of a toddler, my husband’s name is being falsely accused at his job, we just lost several family members due to a heartbreaking betrayal… girl it’s just been a season. Thank you for your dedication to the Lord and to your listeners in putting out this podcast. It has been so healing and comforting to my soul during this very challenging phase of life.
Candace, Thank you so much for your transparency in relating times when you have spoken to God needing space. Knowing some part of life was sin. I have felt that way too at times , but then felt like he loves me, yet I'm not enough. Not measuring up. Not where I should be. I've just been through so much physically ongoing for years, that it wears me down. But God keeps supplying our needs and showing me in little ways He still loves me. I see it. And it was so beautiful how Priscilla received what you so vulnerably shared. 🧡
Candace please I hope you read this. I have been a Christian for 6 years ( I am a 39 year old stay at home mom to a 3 year old) but my faith walk has maybe only really begun in the past 2 - 3 years. I look up to you and your brother greatly. I struggle with reconciling the person I was in the past with my Christian self. I struggled with eating disorder, depression, self hatred, low self esteem, low confidence. I am long since recovered from my eating disorder but I have a negative voice that still lives in my head. I am very hard on myself and feel I don't live up to being a good Christian. I know I am redeemed through Christ but there are many times I don't feel worthy of salvation or God's love and forgiveness. I know none of us are perfect but when I think of a "perfect" Christian, or a Christian role model here on Earth, you are the first person that comes to mind. I look at you and see your joy and happiness and faith and I think how I wish I could be like you. To be light and carefree and a joyful. When you are so candid and vulnerable on your podcast it makes me realize that I am okay where I am. That you have struggles too and that my struggles are okay to experience. THANK YOU for being so open in this podcast episode about needing space from God while you struggled with a sin you didn't want to let go of. I never would have thought you would go through that or have that conversation with God. I see your walk with Christ (what you show publicly) and it makes think that someday I can achieve the joy that you have as long as I keep reading my bible and talking to God. Your confession here just stopped me in my tracks and really made me think about things. A million thank yous for sharing something so intimate.
I always felt guilty for not truly enjoying motherhood. I wanted more for them than I felt capable of giving, but asking for help didn’t feel good. I constantly felt overwhelmed. I thought everything to death and just made it harder, but I felt like if I didn’t do that, I didn’t care. Ugh. Anyhow. They are young adults now and I think back to all I wish I did differently. 😕
Candace this was inspirational sharing your friend Priscilla with us! When I was 1st saved I walked out side in my front yard I had a big tree 🌳 and on top of a branch above my head was hanging a cloth tie die book marker that said “I am the Vine you are the branches “ I believe this was Jesus that sent it to me! So thank you for the reminder! 🙏🏼 Thank you for this Podcast! 🙏🏼❤️🤗
Wow! What a share, Candace! I went through, but I was so scared and felt I was never allowed to ask our father such a thing. Wow. Thank you, Holy Spirit!
Thank you for that suggestion Candace , in your response to that parenting question at the end. I also feel like I am the 'NO' queen and I like the YES BUT method. Genius. ❤ Pure wisdom right there! These pod casts are such a breath of fresh air and a light in my parenting world! Thank you!
Oh my God! I am watching from a hospital bed in India, and I want to thank Candace for sharing her struggles so openly because I am going through an extremely similar situation. Your sharing helps me trust that God still is sticking around and hasn't left me and hasn't let my heart be hardened so much that I completely turn and reject Him, but He has given me that space. I am so very thankful for your openness. I had acute lumbar disc prolapse with weakness in my left leg, and I had surgery on Tuesday and had to go for re- exploration again the next day. I have been so angry with God for the past month for allowing this to happen in my life when already life had not been going good ( it seems like something bad seems to come my way all the time). I was so angry that I couldn't read my Bible every day and pray to Him with the love that I had felt so much just over a month ago. I couldn't feel His presence and thought He has abandoned me. Please pray that God will pour out His love and draw me back to Him. Sorry for posting a long post. Please continue your good work!
I've been walking through a challenging season. I've just been through my mom having an aggressive breast cancer tumor, relationship challenges, trying to learn how to parent a toddler, struggling with my own health, business and financial struggles and just feeling like I'm failing in every area. I have to tell you this season of the podcast is brining me the encouragement that I need. When I do get a chance to sit down with my matcha and a healthy snack in he midst of it all this is what I choose to watch. Thank you ladies. Love you both. Prayers over you.
Candace thank you for your transparency bc there’s someone in my life who I have been trying to let go of but I don’t want to but I know I have to by God’s grace
To not feel God presence is one of the worst living hells that I have ever had to endure. Being separated from him,his "chosen" people and life Way of living when he separated me from all of that.😊😢😊
Thank you so much for this episode, Candace! I just love the wisdom the Lord has given you and Pricilla! This all meant a lot to me during this season of my life!❤️
I am so thankful for your podcast, Candace. This one with Priscilla Shirer is my absolute favorite. I have ordered her new book and am looking forward to reading it. Thank you so much for honoring God.
As long as we remember that we have a purpose walk and talk the purpose of our faith through our fruits of the spirit. Practice and remember 10 commandments, the Lord's prayer, remember that peace , love , joy and faith is important but the most important thing is to love your Lord your God and love others.
Thank you Candace for sharing this very very personal intimate vulnerable part about living in sin and asking for that break. This spoke to me deep in my heart and I felt the Holy Spirit just put a hand on my shoulder and let me know that me praying that and struggling over that exact type of situation in my life, I'm not alone . I have been so hyper focused on something that makes me so so so excited and happy, and in the same way I have been dedicating my life to God and trying and trying and trying, but the thing that has been helping me in this season is not exactly "God", it's been idolatry in a big way and I've been so conflicted and convicted. God is so good. Because let me tell you that He revealed through this thing that has been my primary focus that is not him, he is not going to abandon me. He understands what we need. I don't think this applies to every sin of any nature and I wouldn't say that I've abandoned God over something that is so sinful, but it just enough to know that it's not "quite right" to be priority up there with God. It's my passion for music. God gave me the gift of music and gave me the hyper fixation of the things I am passionate about. I'm in a hard hard healing season where God has been holding my hand. And lately I have somewhat chosen to put music first as it truly has been making me feel so much comfort and I had to admit to God that as terrible as it sounds that God my father is not the only thing providing me comfort as it should be and that this thing for me in this season is. I rationalized it by saying like , well God gave me the gift of music and then these cool things wouldn't happen without God because God is in and of everything, right? And I do believe that's true. But I think this specific instance for me, like you mentioned, it was the acknowledgement that it was idolatry regardless of our intentions or the ways we justify it. And anyways... I just wanted to ramble on that this was just my regular morning 'lets listen while we get dressed ' noise and I've watched all of these videos lately and I love your channel, but I wasn't expecting to feel the Holy Spirit working through this one just to tell me that my recent confession to God was not just a singular, only me thing. Thank you so much. Candace and Priscilla I pray that you are able to see this comment, because I am certain that your honestly and willingness to share that was not just to minister to me, but to probably validate others too. about something so hard to even put into words let alone share with an audience. I am a newer subscriber but not new to Jesus. But today's message just really allowed me to feel the Holy Spirit.
"Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds!" - Luke 12:24
Hey guys I'm wrestling with an overwhelming bad gut feeling every time I step into my work place for the past week and a half. I feel like this is not the occupation for me and it's causing struggles with my fiance because of how some of the men I work with not choosing to talk to me respectfully. And when they do I bring him and Jesus up in the conversation. That normally changes the way they speak to me. I just don't know if I should stay at the job to make sure I stay afloat or if I quit while still looking for another. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! God bless you all!
This may sound silly, but … when it comes to meditating on a verse, writing it on cards and encountering it all day? I feel stuck somehow by the choices. Even when I ask God for guidance I still ask myself, is this the right one? So, I continue to ask which verse? There are so many. Only 1 at a time or is a passage better? I find I end up doing nothing? Do others encounter a similar challenge? How did you break it?
God's voice was intentionally premeditatedly maliciously callously taken away from me and hidden from me for over 40 years and it was done with the intentions to harm and destroy me and it did so. Satan destroyed me and everything good in my life and that my life could have been. I was torchered and his communities of people helped to destroy me every step of the way.
Will God meet my needs? Hmm! Phillipians 4:6-7 KJV [6] Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. [7] And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Phillipians 4:11 KJV Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am in, therewith to be content. It seems to me that our needs are physical and God prioritizes the spiritual while providing for those things which we have need of (by His standards) which we should be thankful and should not question or pray for things which we think our needs actually are. Pricilla reminds me of someone who knows much scripture in an intellectual way but has a fairly shallow understanding spiritually and very little spiritual wisdom. She speaks much about praying for her children to behave "goodly" but each person who has the Holy Spirit within them already has regulated behavior and anyone who does not have the Holy Spirit within them is dominated by sin (Romans 6:14) and there is no prayer which anyone can pray which will be heard in heaven for any who are lost except for Romans 10:13 which must come from the one who is lost. We are in the age of grace. This does not mean that those who have the Holy Spirit do not sin but sin shall not have dominion in their lives and after salvation no sin is imputed to anyone (Romans 3:24-26). After salvation, Jesus is the justifier of all those which believe in Jesus: who have the Holy Spirit within. Even so, come, Lord Jesus Rev 22:20 KJV

I don't have any friends like that and never have. I never met those types of supportive friends in Tennessee in 52: years.
