My secular music testimony: I have always been a social butterfly. Did cheer my whole life and have yelled acting goofy, doing dances in front of thousands in my cheer career. I graduate hs and continue working and going to college. Out of no where I get social anxiety, extreme paranoia, and insomnia. God put it on my heart that our tongues speak life and what we allow our eyes to see and ears to hear have impact. I realized singing those violent songs was speaking death over myself and hearing secular music was making an impact to my thought life. The same week I swapped to only Christian music I had 2 girls I’ve never seen before come up to me at work and ask to pray for me. In the cereal aisle the girl praying asks God to calm my anxiety, give me peace and comfort, even asks Him to give me a good nights rest tn. I was SHOOK. I knew God was showing me through them that He was hearing my prayers and seeing my struggles. After she finished the other girl looked at me and said “God showed me a vision of you singing Christian music in your car” The gasp I gusped😧. She then said “He wants you to continue to do that” Now I’m crying by the fruit loops at work. I told them my story and told them to continue to do what they do bc they make a difference. After that I had to take my 15min break because I was a wreckkkk. That was over 2 years ago and now I post a “Daily Concert” along with my Christian playlists to help expose people to different styles of Christian music.
Lately I’ve been living luke warm. I listen to gospel music and mostly just that when I’m alone but when I’m with others I feel the need to play secular music even when they don’t ask. My flesh caters to the world easily when I’m around others, I cuss and gossip. I don’t want to be that person, I want to be who God want me to be, please pray for me, I’m learning to walk BODLY in God’s word.
At least you're self-aware and that is how we can start repenting and start incorporating it into our lives! Yes we will stumble but then we get back up and try again. Also keep praying and reading the Bible daily! Eventually you will find yourself doing that last and eventually not even anymore!
I understand! Most times we have to sacrifice friendships, environments, relationships, music, etc, whatever it may be that is driving us away from Jesus or hindering your growth with him! The flesh wants to hang on but pray for strength and guidance, pray for obedience, to move and leave all the worldly things behind. But still cater the word of God to them but if you feel that you are influenced in the worldly acts with them, then don't hang with them because we can still be sensitive and not strong enough at times or all times. As the bible said, let me paraphrase a good fruit doesn't bear bad fruit and vice versa and bad company corrupts good character.. We can say that we want the change but words can be words and we truly have to one day have a stand to be true to the change we want with God. I pray that you'll come closer and stronger with him, Have Faith, You got this If you believe you can and If you believe in him! God Bless.
The “eyes by men” yessss Girl it’s like i still have that “I need to look cute cause what if i meet my husband today”! 😂 so yea I ask God now to change the way I dress
I understand I used to always think it’s the day I’ll meet my husband that’s why we’ve got to surrender our desires and everything and learn to be patient and remember that only God completes us satisfies us and makes us whole relationship with Him is Most Important 😊❤❤
I haven’t been feeling that fire and desire to fix my relationship with God as I found myself drifting away from him. I know how wonderful life is when my relationship with God is strong and I love the person I am when I have God flowing in my being. Picking my Bible up is very hard and praying is even harder. I can’t seem to separate myself from the word and it’s killing me because I want to better my relationship with God and for it to be what it was before! Hearing you saying that you won’t always feels that fire and that it takes time to get there comforts me. Me wanting to fix that relationship says something and I pray that God lights up that fire in my heart and that he gives me the strength to fight this world and to fight my flesh. I pray that he gives me the desire and want. I can’t do this by myself but I know anything is possible if it’s done with the Lord. May he work his wonders into my life and bring me back to him. I pray in his holy name, Amen.
I relate to you a lot with this comment. I’ve been also struggling with this I’m not sure if this will help you at all but it has helped me by deleting the social media apps off of my phone. I have no idea if that is contributing to your struggle but Jesus is with you and knows what you’re going through all of it! I haven’t been able to pick my Bible up but I read James this morning and deleted it and that has helped. God is with you!
Figure out what are the biggest distractions you may have while chilling with God (reading, praying, talking, meditating). Social media , thoughts and even tiredness can be used as distractions. I think if you commune with God, although you may not “feel” like it, it can begin to make you feel closer to him. He’s always near but sometime we do kinda lose interest. It SUCKS! But a good thing too Is to keep people around you who is strong in their walk and take things day by day. Watch sermons on what you’re feeling or podcasts. This walk is a relationship and it takes intentional love. I know exactly how you feel though.
I understand but staying away from your Bible and not praying isn’t going to help! This is when you run to God full force! Deny your thoughts and your flesh of this negative thing and continue to pray more and continue to read the Bible more. Pray and ask God to bring that fire back! And he will but FIRST you must put in the work. Read Matthew, reading about Jesus brings so much joy to me and I hope it does the same for you. I love you and I pray for all of yall strength
My pastor talked about shame this morning. He said to reject shame and rejoice in conviction. Shame is not of God. Shame is an attack from the enemy to try and condemn you but if you know God, you don’t know condemnation. Conviction helps us to put our darkest sins into the light and reject them IN JESUS NAME. I rebuke shame, I rebuke condemnation and I pray that the lord continues to convict us and keeps on track, in Jesus name ✝️❤️🙏🙌 God bless you!
Thank you @Godseesyou365 for this it really spoke to me about feeling ashamed of my past, I was praying to God to remove shame from my life and the very next day I saw your comment Praise God🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏
@@karenacornett condemnation judges it tears you down it does not have Love which is God present this is why we need to know God vividly so we can differentiate conviction is with love it allows you to fully surrender and Let God leads the bible says in Proverbs 3 versed 11 to 12 it a summary of how and why God discipline which is by conviction and he convicts us because he Loves you like a father LOVES THEIR CHILD
@@Godseesyou365 True and when light shines where the is darkness, darkness does not even last a second I urge accept the Living light into your troubling mind with dark thoughts , remember you are not alone even if it feels like it , remember faith over feelings, faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings faith over feelings. FAITH OVER FEAR . He promised you child of God your father promised never to leave you never forsake you, your not alone
Definitely needed to hear this. I’ve been struggling with my journey for some time now. And that quote that you mentioned, “Be mindful of the way that you live your life, because you can potentially be the only Bible somebody reads” hit deep. As believers we are the light of the world, and we need to set an example for those around us, especially unbelievers. God bless🙏🏽❤️
I am really thankfull to have found your video. I feel like my relationship with God was not my priority and hasn't been for a while. Today I needed to get ready and I usually listen to random videos, but today, I saw your video on my screen and felt the need to watch it. I do not regret it. Thank you for this. I feel like my fire for the Lord is slowly coming back.
That was a beautiful prayer to close with. Thank you so much for touching on seeking first the kingdom of God. I struggle with media addiction when I know I should talk to God. In turn I beat myself up and assume that God doesn't want to hear my prayers or spend time with me, since I already ruined the day. You reassured me that that is not the case and He sees me trying to do better and to keep praying over my vices.
I just came across your channel and this video today. I honestly couldn’t be more thankful and blessed to have come across your beautiful vibe. I’ve recently been trying to reconnect with God because without him I haven’t been myself. The prayer at the end of your video was what I needed to hear so I wouldn’t give up. This was extremely touching and honestly I have never cried while having someone pray over me. Thank you so much and have a blessed day 🤍
I’ve been trying sooooo hard to get closer to god, work keeps me so busy because everything is so crazy and I have to work so much with 2 kids idk where to find the time, this whole video made me cry so much I want so much to get closer
Maya my gworlll coming through 🥹🥹❤️ you are such an inspiration for me in motherhood and as a sister in Christ , thank you God for using her as a vessel🫶🏼
Girl, the Lord only knew I needed this video at this very moment!! Here I am bed ridden, recovering from an emergency appendix removal surgery. Thanks for being a vessel girl!! Light me up Lord Jesus!! 😂🥰🩷 god bless you Maya! Hope you and the family are doing well always! ❤️🩹
ahhhh this was soo beautifully said sister! LOVE seeing women standing their ground in this society we live in today. You know a girl is of Christ when she doesn't fear the hate of the world.
The secular music is so real! I didn’t even notice how much I struggled with it until a few days ago because I don’t specifically play secular songs but these songs that I hear around me and on social media get stuck in my head and I begin to recite them aloud and when I really caught myself I was shook because although I don’t intentionally do it, it happens! And it also really has an effect on us as well, I felt very distant from God the last few days and once I caught myself I already see us coming closer together again!
As a Christian who has been struggling recently and is just starting to get back on track this video is so helpful!! Especially secular music, unbelieving family members and growing closer to God
I am so happy that I came across this 😢 I believe the Lord listened to me and brought this chat 💬 to my page. I feel like I am going through rejection right now, from family, friends and I don’t know, I’m having serious accommodation issues right now, I don’t have a place to stay, I had to stay in ex’s house for awhile, but I left because I was doing things that I wasn’t pleased with; and I kept having this restlessness about everything. I know God wanted me leave my ex’s house, so I did, but now I don’t have a place to stay, I’m really looking for a place and I believe God is in control 💯🙏 thank you so much for this revelation.. it really lifted my spirits 🙏 and i believe with this the Lord will direct and show me what to do amen 🙏
Girl your answer to the modesty question was so on point, I know it can be so easy to get in your head and think you're "doing too much" and "saying too much "but you answered the question in full detail. Also you're so right with asking God whether or not we should listen to a certain artist or their music because I was unsure whether or not I should be listening to beyonce's music and God Definitely answered me. Once I heard in the intro to one of her songs that she was saying she uses the pages from the Bible as a tampon I was like Ok God I hear you .
Absolutely loved & needed this video. My family is not religious at all and lately I have been feeling so called to get closer to god. Thank you for your wisdom and prayers. I am ready to get closer to him 🤍
This episode actually blessed my heart because this is not a season for me where am running around in church Meeting God personally has been something so precious to me Thankyou for sharing your story and making me feel seen
My testemony about secular music is this: I was never the type of girl that Hears the worst musics but i liked to hear some depressive musics things that dont edificated me a lot. And some day I was in my bus going home and listens those songs, and at thist moment I was needing a answer of God about someting , when I thinked "God I wanted to much that especific answer" then I feel Him saying "so why are'u speending ur time listen to this , instead off listen to something that could shows more about Me and My porpose for you?" It was crazy , than I resolved to delete my "secular playlist" and only listen to songs that can edificates me
Wow thank you so much for this video ❤ I’m trying to separate myself from secular music , & you are truly helping me in the right direction. God bless you sis 🙏🏾
New here, & i'm on my journey w| Christ & getting to know God more as a single mom of two💙. But your voice was sooo calming, i loved just hearing you talk. & I don't know you personally but I can tell that you were definitely made over😇
I just rededicated my life to God 💗 Starting from the bottom and working myself up as a 16 year old young woman!! This helped me better understand some of the things I need to work on myself to get closer to God!! 🪽🎀💗!!
Thank You Maya 💕this was much needed, inspiring and very humbling video for me to take note of, while continuing my own journey & showing myself grace even tho its not easy all the time but one thing I do know is God is Good all the time, so I pray we all will continue to try our best & continue our walk with Jesus no matter what our situations may look like🤍✝️✨!!! P.S Your 500k is otw😝🎉 God is Good!!!
Maya, this video touched my soul in ways I really can't explain, but God knows. It touched me how throughout the video you were asking God to help form the words to say in order to answer the question in a way that would help us, but glorify God. God will give us the words to say and He DEFINITELY gave you the words to say! With God, you delivered! Keep allowing God to use you in ways only He understands! Allow Him to use you as a vessel for His Holy Kingdom, In Jesus' Name I pray, AMEN! Thank you!! 💗💗
I love everything about this omg thanks for sharing your experience thoughts etc I’m working on my spiritual journey & it is beyond amazing GOD bless you sis needed this!!!🫶🏾🙏🏾💜
The vlogs, the fashion, the mom content, the self care, Christ chats & more girl we LOVE! Jesus makes us well rounded, love you 💕 Also 10:59 yessss! Thank you beautiful girl, you are so mature, loving and transparent with us girlies 💘
Wow Maya… I loved loved loved this video🙌🏾you spoke so gracefully and wisely thank you for speaking and helping us sisters in Christ 💗 you nailed it on the head about smoking the Holy Spirit has slowly been helping me let it go and I have let him. Thank you for your prayer as well at the end spoke to my heart. Blessings 🙏🏾
As someone who’s trying to get close to God I need some Christian girl advice. I’ve been having a hard time going to church. Part of it is because my family didn’t support me for going to a Christian church instead of a Catholic Church. But another is about forgiveness. How do I forgive the pastors daughter for kissing my boyfriend while she knew we were together. This happened a while back. My bf never really went to church but his parents do and I started to go to church with his parents but didn’t know this happened. She knew we were together but didn’t know me personally and he told me this happened when we got into an argument. I forgave him but how can I forgive her? I’ve prayed about it and now I can’t go back to that church and feel like now I’m taking it against the pastors when they probably had no idea this happened
You should forgive and I know you’ve been hurt! Pray about it sis and make sure you sit and have a talk with her and tell her you didn’t like that. We have to face our fears sometimes. Also, we shouldn’t stop coming to church just because we were hurt. That is evil ppl, Jesus can heal your broken heart.
Thank you so much for letting God use you to speak his word and light .. I really had been struggling with my walk in faith but through you the Lord confirmed it all thank you 💖
I absolutely love this sis please keep thriving in the Lord he has you and he has all of us ladies and gentlemen . His love is forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ keep this content coming my girl
Be encouraged! Very very sound wisdom and knowledge shared in this video. This was amazing! May you continue to do the work of the Lord without compromise.
God bless Usarmy 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
This was amazing and so full of God’s love and awesomeness 🙏🏼🙌🏼❤️ I can testify to all of this and stand in agreement with you on all that was spoke on Sis. This was so encouraging to my spirit & walk with Christ!
on the topic of secular music i think it's not just violent secular music but also reggae music that says 'jah' or 'selassie' in the music that gives reference to their god like that one song from yg marley ''praise jah in the moonlight''
Omg I just found your and I wish I could just hug you. I love you girllll everything about u already. I’m starting back on my journey and you so far have been helping just with this SINGLE video. Like omg where have I been n not seen your channel lol❤❤
Good morning Minister Maya❤ Thank you so much for this Holy Girl Chat this was amazing and encouraging!!! Thank you for your transparency it is so profound to see your growth in the Lord and I just love every bit of you! Thank you for being obedient and releasing this video it was very helpful even at some points convicting and we all need that as it leads to repentance snd reposting our hearts with God who loves us!! Thank you 🙏🏾 also I need the shirt details please share ❤ love you girlie patiently awaiting the next video!!!
I looove and bawl watching The Chosen, this video has been one of my favorites ever we talked about Jesus, motherhood, modesty & more I done commented 5x like that’s how you knowww I love it and rock with my gurl Maya my good sis 💐 My Pastor said too we have to partner with God and yesss we have to be healed and delivered! It’s a process, we gotta put in the work too and I read Ephesians 6 🔥 WHEW and I’m in my season of being courted wow Romans 8:28 is dear to my heart 🥺
This is such a great video! Thank you so much Maya for sharing your testimony and being bold for Christ. Awesome video and I could definitely feel the Holy Spirit throughout the video. ❤️🔥🙌🙌
Ahhhh you are such a blessing🫶!!! This was my first time watching you and you got me crying in my kitchen lol. Thank you for your vulnerability with weed it has been a struggle of mine in the past and God used you to remind me of the blessings he has provided delivering me from the sinful nature. And then you got me again with that prayer ahhh. So so good God always does the unexpected.🫶🫶🥰
Hi Maya nice to meet you, I decided to look up more Christian based female UA-camrs - I am across your page and I realized we got the same name lol keep up the work and the motivation in walk with God. ❤
Okay girl this is my first video… obsessed and subscribing! Lol I guess I should say I’m newly like deepening my relationship with God, just found a church I think I LOVVVVVE ! Only been twice but literally looking forward to going this week! I’m reading my bible ALMOST daily I won’t lie lol the goal is daily I’m trying!! I say a daily prayer w/ my son before he goes into daycare and we say one before bed I’m working on my solo prayers idk what my problem is it’s like it’s hard to get focused to do it or to like really get into it! But it’s like I’m hear I’m excited I’m feeling the feelings but idk! I also plan on trying to mingle at my new church and going to events I have extreme social anxiety and am just a super introvert but I’m gonna give it a go lol
So I struggle with overthinking and feeling alone sometimes and that no one cares about me but maybe it's just the Devil getting into my head I had a nightmare last night from arguing with my friend last night cause he said I was overthinking too much and I got angry because he said that and I didn't want to hear it. But today I woke up thinking it's not a big deal and I just needed rest and I feel so much better so God woke me up and I feel so blessed that he did
You don’t understand the way the Holy Spirit told me to watch this video. Mind you, this is the first time I see your channel. Wow, what a beautiful video and testimony for so many girls out there, including me. Thank you for being obedient to the Lord, and for your love poured out into talking with us to help us as a big sister in Christ. That prayer felt like a hug from Jesus :,) So thank you Jesus, our beauty Lord and Saviour, and thank you for sharing what God has done and will do. God bless you and your beautiful family always, and remember (on the days you feel like you can’t keep on with the fam) “ it is such a blessing and always better to be tired from healthy children and a husband that came from work, than being tired from being in the doctor because your baby is sick and your husband is not with you” Have a lovely day, and keep the light on! 🤍
as a girly who grew up with two brothers, i have always been invested in video games and eventually it became my hobby . but ever since i have gotten closer to Christ, I try to put him first and avoid games that are violent and make me feel convicted. My question is, do i have to drop my hobby , as a whole, for Christ? Is it a sin to play video games? I want everyones opinion on this !! :)
do you think Lana del rey is also a bad influence? I personally just really like the vibe her songs have and it just hypes me up. She also mentions God a lot in her songs with a good intention
Girl ik exactly how u feel i smoked every second of the day I couldn’t go without weed and blasting Nicki Minaj everyday and then…. Jesus took my hand and now two years later im a completely different person it’s crazy the kind of world we live in….the most gorgeous creation with these horrible demons taking it over breaks my heart to the utter core

This spoke to me! I too went to Jesus while sitting DEEP in sin. To God be all the glory!
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
no words could ever be enough to explain how much this video helped me! thanks sis love your content sm😭❤
Girl, the Lord only knew I needed this video at this very moment!! Here I am bed ridden, recovering from an emergency appendix removal surgery. Thanks for being a vessel girl!! Light me up Lord Jesus!! 😂🥰🩷 god bless you Maya! Hope you and the family are doing well always! ❤️🩹
I have struggled so much with shame over my past. Thank you for mentioning shame over the past. I know that’s the enemy trying to discourage us.
Not only circular, but also mindful about some so-called Christian music❤
ahhhh this was soo beautifully said sister! LOVE seeing women standing their ground in this society we live in today. You know a girl is of Christ when she doesn't fear the hate of the world.
Loved this!! You just gained a subscriber! Love the energy and your vibe thru the screen! Just getting into my journey with god! 🩷💪🏽
I always cry when someone prays for other people. Really beautiful, God bless you girl ❤❤❤❤❤
The secular music is so real! I didn’t even notice how much I struggled with it until a few days ago because I don’t specifically play secular songs but these songs that I hear around me and on social media get stuck in my head and I begin to recite them aloud and when I really caught myself I was shook because although I don’t intentionally do it, it happens! And it also really has an effect on us as well, I felt very distant from God the last few days and once I caught myself I already see us coming closer together again!
As a Christian who has been struggling recently and is just starting to get back on track this video is so helpful!! Especially secular music, unbelieving family members and growing closer to God
I love The Chosen too!! Just when I thought I couldn't love Jesus more, it made me fall deeper in love with Jesus.
I am so happy that I came across this 😢 I believe the Lord listened to me and brought this chat 💬 to my page. I feel like I am going through rejection right now, from family, friends and I don’t know, I’m having serious accommodation issues right now, I don’t have a place to stay, I had to stay in ex’s house for awhile, but I left because I was doing things that I wasn’t pleased with; and I kept having this restlessness about everything. I know God wanted me leave my ex’s house, so I did, but now I don’t have a place to stay, I’m really looking for a place and I believe God is in control 💯🙏 thank you so much for this revelation.. it really lifted my spirits 🙏 and i believe with this the Lord will direct and show me what to do amen 🙏
Girl your answer to the modesty question was so on point, I know it can be so easy to get in your head and think you're "doing too much" and "saying too much "but you answered the question in full detail. Also you're so right with asking God whether or not we should listen to a certain artist or their music because I was unsure whether or not I should be listening to beyonce's music and God Definitely answered me. Once I heard in the intro to one of her songs that she was saying she uses the pages from the Bible as a tampon I was like Ok God I hear you .
12:48 this past because I remind myself I’m a daughter of His first before I am a mom, a wife in waiting, a business woman, a sister and more
Girl! This is the first time I’m watching u and I love u already. I LOVE your vibes you truly inspire me
Absolutely loved & needed this video. My family is not religious at all and lately I have been feeling so called to get closer to god. Thank you for your wisdom and prayers. I am ready to get closer to him 🤍
This episode actually blessed my heart because this is not a season for me where am running around in church
Meeting God personally has been something so precious to me Thankyou for sharing your story and making me feel seen
Sis, I used to watch you since the beginninggggg. There was always a light about you that I noticed. Now I know !!!
My testemony about secular music is this: I was never the type of girl that Hears the worst musics but i liked to hear some depressive musics things that dont edificated me a lot. And some day I was in my bus going home and listens those songs, and at thist moment I was needing a answer of God about someting , when I thinked "God I wanted to much that especific answer" then I feel Him saying "so why are'u speending ur time listen to this , instead off listen to something that could shows more about Me and My porpose for you?"
It was crazy , than I resolved to delete my "secular playlist" and only listen to songs that can edificates me
Wow thank you so much for this video ❤ I’m trying to separate myself from secular music , & you are truly helping me in the right direction. God bless you sis 🙏🏾
I kept getting tears throughout this video!🥲🤍
New here, & i'm on my journey w| Christ & getting to know God more as a single mom of two💙. But your voice was sooo calming, i loved just hearing you talk. & I don't know you personally but I can tell that you were definitely made over😇
I just rededicated my life to God 💗 Starting from the bottom and working myself up as a 16 year old young woman!! This helped me better understand some of the things I need to work on myself to get closer to God!! 🪽🎀💗!!
Thank You Maya 💕this was much needed, inspiring and very humbling video for me to take note of, while continuing my own journey & showing myself grace even tho its not easy all the time but one thing I do know is God is Good all the time, so I pray we all will continue to try our best & continue our walk with Jesus no matter what our situations may look like🤍✝️✨!!!
P.S Your 500k is otw😝🎉 God is Good!!!
Maya, this video touched my soul in ways I really can't explain, but God knows. It touched me how throughout the video you were asking God to help form the words to say in order to answer the question in a way that would help us, but glorify God. God will give us the words to say and He DEFINITELY gave you the words to say! With God, you delivered! Keep allowing God to use you in ways only He understands! Allow Him to use you as a vessel for His Holy Kingdom, In Jesus' Name I pray, AMEN! Thank you!! 💗💗
I love everything about this omg thanks for sharing your experience thoughts etc I’m working on my spiritual journey & it is beyond amazing GOD bless you sis needed this!!!🫶🏾🙏🏾💜

Thank you for your prayer as well at the end spoke to my heart. Blessings 🙏🏾
Lord l thank you for listening to this it is really inspiring for someone like me who is seeking and struggling to be closer to you ❤❤❤❤
As someone who’s trying to get close to God I need some Christian girl advice.
I’ve been having a hard time going to church. Part of it is because my family didn’t support me for going to a Christian church instead of a Catholic Church. But another is about forgiveness.
How do I forgive the pastors daughter for kissing my boyfriend while she knew we were together. This happened a while back. My bf never really went to church but his parents do and I started to go to church with his parents but didn’t know this happened. She knew we were together but didn’t know me personally and he told me this happened when we got into an argument. I forgave him but how can I forgive her? I’ve prayed about it and now I can’t go back to that church and feel like now I’m taking it against the pastors when they probably had no idea this happened
You should forgive and I know you’ve been hurt! Pray about it sis and make sure you sit and have a talk with her and tell her you didn’t like that. We have to face our fears sometimes.
Also, we shouldn’t stop coming to church just because we were hurt. That is evil ppl, Jesus can heal your broken heart.
I love you very much and so does God
Thank you so much for letting God use you to speak his word and light .. I really had been struggling with my walk in faith but through you the Lord confirmed it all thank you 💖
Thank you so much. May God bless you more
I absolutely love this sis please keep thriving in the Lord he has you and he has all of us ladies and gentlemen . His love is forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ keep this content coming my girl

Love this video and the obedience & grace to share your walk with us. It is not in vain !❤
This was amazing and so full of God’s love and awesomeness 🙏🏼🙌🏼❤️ I can testify to all of this and stand in agreement with you on all that was spoke on Sis. This was so encouraging to my spirit & walk with Christ!
on the topic of secular music i think it's not just violent secular music but also reggae music that says 'jah' or 'selassie' in the music that gives reference to their god like that one song from yg marley ''praise jah in the moonlight''
Hi, I'm a jamaican and most of the time when we say "jah" or "jah jah", we are referring to the Christian God. For us, "Jah" means God.
hey Mal i'm also jamaican, but i have just heard rastafarians use the term "jah" in the terms and contex of the religion they practice (:
Omg I just found your and I wish I could just hug you. I love you girllll everything about u already. I’m starting back on my journey and you so far have been helping just with this SINGLE video. Like omg where have I been n not seen your channel lol❤❤

Ahhhh you are such a blessing🫶!!! This was my first time watching you and you got me crying in my kitchen lol.

And then you got me again with that prayer ahhh. So so good God always does the unexpected.🫶🫶🥰
Hi Maya nice to meet you, I decided to look up more Christian based female UA-camrs - I am across your page and I realized we got the same name lol keep up the work and the motivation in walk with God. ❤
Okay girl this is my first video… obsessed and subscribing! Lol
I guess I should say I’m newly like deepening my relationship with God, just found a church I think I LOVVVVVE ! Only been twice but literally looking forward to going this week! I’m reading my bible ALMOST daily I won’t lie lol the goal is daily I’m trying!! I say a daily prayer w/ my son before he goes into daycare and we say one before bed I’m working on my solo prayers idk what my problem is it’s like it’s hard to get focused to do it or to like really get into it! But it’s like I’m hear I’m excited I’m feeling the feelings but idk! I also plan on trying to mingle at my new church and going to events I have extreme social anxiety and am just a super introvert but I’m gonna give it a go lol
thank you muchh for sharing with us these things ! , may God bless you 🫶🏽
So I struggle with overthinking and feeling alone sometimes and that no one cares about me but maybe it's just the Devil getting into my head I had a nightmare last night from arguing with my friend last night cause he said I was overthinking too much and I got angry because he said that and I didn't want to hear it. But today I woke up thinking it's not a big deal and I just needed rest and I feel so much better so God woke me up and I feel so blessed that he did
I absolutely love this series!!! Please continue to make these videos 🩷🙏🏼
This video just gained you a new follower! Loved everything you had to say girl!
I loved this I needed to see this!!
All I have.to say is RHANK YOU JESUS that prayer at the end whee the Holy Spirit❤❤
Come on sista maya! I feel like I just watched a virtual young adult ministry bible study! I love this❤
Amen love this video girly !
Thank you for this honestly I needed to hear this...❤️🙏🏼
You don’t understand the way the Holy Spirit told me to watch this video. Mind you, this is the first time I see your channel. Wow, what a beautiful video and testimony for so many girls out there, including me. Thank you for being obedient to the Lord, and for your love poured out into talking with us to help us as a big sister in Christ. That prayer felt like a hug from Jesus :,)
So thank you Jesus, our beauty Lord and Saviour, and thank you for sharing what God has done and will do. God bless you and your beautiful family always, and remember (on the days you feel like you can’t keep on with the fam) “ it is such a blessing and always better to be tired from healthy children and a husband that came from work, than being tired from being in the doctor because your baby is sick and your husband is not with you”
Have a lovely day, and keep the light on! 🤍
Thank you so much ❤️
This was really realistic & needed tbh
I am so glad you made this!
Thank you it really helped me!♥️
this really spoke to me 💕. God bless you
Girlllll you better preach!! Whewwww
Thank you for this. May God bless you and your family...💜🙏
wow, I'm new here and I love you already. I needed this so bad, you addressed so much that I needed to hear.
as a girly who grew up with two brothers, i have always been invested in video games and eventually it became my hobby . but ever since i have gotten closer to Christ, I try to put him first and avoid games that are violent and make me feel convicted. My question is, do i have to drop my hobby , as a whole, for Christ? Is it a sin to play video games? I want everyones opinion on this !! :)
I been waiting for this video ❤
Yayyy!
@@MayaGraves l can't believe you replied to my comment maya graves
“The cropest crops” 😭🤣 #NewSubscriber
thank you ❤
Praying for Godly tribe. Out here in New Orleans from canada and I have zero friends lol.. just my baby n hubby.
Hi, I was like let me see if Maya posted and here it is! Wow. Such a great video so far.
do you think Lana del rey is also a bad influence? I personally just really like the vibe her songs have and it just hypes me up. She also mentions God a lot in her songs with a good intention
LOVE THIS!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Girl ik exactly how u feel i smoked every second of the day I couldn’t go without weed and blasting Nicki Minaj everyday and then…. Jesus took my hand and now two years later im a completely different person it’s crazy the kind of world we live in….the most gorgeous creation with these horrible demons taking it over breaks my heart to the utter core
On a different note, maam..ur skin !!!!!🎉❤
