For all the people that supported and watched this video thank you... truly love you all. If this video touched you please see my latest spoken word video "Where is Jesus?" God woke me up in the middle of the night and told me to make this for Him. I didn't take that lightly so I put everything in. Plus had to go back to parts of my past... God bless you all🙏 WHERE IS JESUS? || Spoken Word Video link: ua-cam.com/video/5vabmDLQjQ0/v-deo.html
This is powerful and inspiring, is about Jesus and he’ll keeps always, we just have to trust the process which a lot if times is hard, but sooooo rewarding at the end Thank you for sharing 🙏♥️
I am only 12 years old an I am a Christian. And I'm PROUD of it. He saved me. He saved my family. And HE saved my friends... I love him with all of my heart and I will praying for anyone and everyone. DO NOT BE AFRAID to ask for prayers.
+Tatiana M. Zayas Don't let anyone take you down. God made you beautiful He will always be there for you even when the path gets broken and your heart gets clouded know that He is always there just shout out to Him when you begin to fall into despair. I know there will be a time when you begin to doubt that everything you believe is nothing more than a fantasy but it's real. I went through the time when I didn't believe in God because of all that was around me and what I could see but beyond what I could see is the truth of our reality. A broken creation, split to its core the moment Adam and Eve bit that fruit and their faith dropped to the floor. People will tell you a lot that makes sense that the universe doesn't need God to exist and on paper, yeah, it's right, but He is the lion behind creation. Tell me, what kinda paper can stand up to a lions claw? It's our fault, we participated in the mutiny against God and so we found other outlets and solutions to try to explain but in our confusion, the evidence is feigned. Just think of what they say about the pyramids, many would rather attribute them to aliens that to admit we are not the smartest civilization. My plea is don't give up even when the world comes against you. The truth may be unpleasant, but the truth will make you brand new. God be with you.
+John Oliver well guess what, you just lied to her. Christianity IS true, Jesus is alive, and deluding yourself wont change it. I used to be an atheist, but looking at the evidence, following the real truth, and not my own bias led me here. It pains me to see someone going through the same thing, and thinking he is in the right path.
+John Oliver God gave man free will because in order for a true love relationship, in order for genuine kindness, there must be the risk of true hatred and genuine evilness.
+NormanSee Thats true, but even then God will stop all evil, all injustice. We only need to wait. +John Oliver What about the Christians who were raped, murdered, tortured, burned alive because of their faith! What about Christians who die trying to share the gospel to those in Syria, Iran, India!?!? Why dont they ask that question?... Because they know the truth, any kind of suffering does not amount to anything in the presence of our Lord. If God does not exist WHERE IS THE JUSTICE!! If a rapists gets away, lives a normal life and dies a normal life what about the victim?!? WHERE IS THE JUSTICE!?!? If Hitler just killed himself after murdering all those people, where is the justice? At least with God we have mercy, we have redemption, we have hope. That is something your worldview does not give.
I did give up on God. I stopped going to church. I'm heartbroken but I'm my hearts never gonna heal without God putting me together. I'm broken ,struggling ,barley moving along. This video gives me hope.
Pixzuuhl we go to church cuz even in the bible it's says don't forsake the assembly of the Godly.the church is a spiritual family so we need each other.
Bob, God did not give up on you. Whatever happens to you remember He is always there by your side. Just pray, God will always be there for you. Whenever stuff has happened to me, really bad stuff, I ask God to help me to trust Him in the hard times. He has never let me down, bad stuff happens, but God cares about you and is there for you.
Dear whoever you are, The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These humans have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen. You my friend have been through whatever it is that life threw at you and you're here now, broken and bruised but not defeated. You my friend, are a warrior.
some people cry to God and some don't... I'm so happy for those who found the help and saviour in God, yeshua... be blessed! may God bless all the people reading this!
"I am close to you. No matter how broken you are, I am close to you. No matter how restless you are, I am close to you. No matter how anxious you are, I am close to you. In the midst of your sadness and joy, I am close to you. In the midst of your strength and weakness, I am close to you. In your fears and doubts, I am close to you. I am just here, a step closer, so near to you. I am with you, and in these unknowns, I won't leave. You will never be alone. I am close to you." Thus says the Lord 💖
+Jake Tyler That's amazing, and is really important because God manifests signs only to those willing to even acknowledge His existence. Some atheists ask "where is God? Why hasn't he revealed himself in my life? Why doesn't he help me?" and I say "Why would He? When you don't even bother admitting he exists in the first place..." It's like a group of peasants in the medieval ages all huddling together in a pub, talking sh*t about the ruling king of their lands, but then the moment the king visits their village, they suddenly start acting all friendly and asking for favors from this king. Why would the king willingly help the people that foster strong hatred for his mere existence? It makes no sense. But I also know that God is Great and Merciful, you never really know what to expect. For example, I was fortunate, I was atheist and somehow found God (against all odds).
+Jake Tyler I would like to hear how Jesus has been working in your life...because life is difficult and not easy. This is a jouney that you wont walk alone :)
Umm.. It's not easy I can tell you that.. Once I told my family they didn't like it , cause they're Roman Catholic.. Some days are good and some days are bad but I'd get through them.. I just pray that my family sees the real truth and to start trusting the Lord.
Hey bro, i would liek to hear your expiernce and be there when u need some advice. My email is Orlando.blanco@moody.edu your welcome to email me whenever you want :)
just lost my job, I'm broke, have nothing, no family, no items.. nothing... being lost and afraid.. hurts, and makes me blind... I have to remember I have God, and God has me to do his bidding.. I pray that he guides me soon, for I don't know how long residing like this will last, and I need him, I need God..
Two years ago, I asked why did I go through depression... it took a toll over my life; I felt overwhelmed and discourage but now that I am healed and delivered from depression... I realize that all of what I went through was only preparing me to do greater .... I am now able to share what I been through to help encourage others to hold on a little longer and at the end God gets all of the glory because He have a plan for us! 😫💕 hold on a little longer!
raised in a christian home and always being told that God is in control of everything , that he chooses who loves him back. it's easy to blame him for everything wrong in my life, it's easy to be angry that I'm depressed and anxious. but maybe the reason Im this way is because I don't have a relationship with God. I want to be happy and trust him, but I can't force myself to love him .
Always remember when you accept God things don't always get easier they sometimes get harder because the devil now has to fight even harder for you to part from God and give up you just have to be strong and show the devil no matter how hard he tries to knock you down and get you to part from God that it's not going to happen because you know God has your back and you will get through anything with your Faith in the Lord. Stay strong and open your heart for God ;)
It's reasonable to wonder why God didn't destroy Lucifer and his angels instead of just casting them out of heaven. One wonders why God didn't just destroy Lucifer right at the beginning, when he started murmuring. Wouldn't the destruction of Satan have prevented all the suffering in the world today? Lucifer started this controversy by attacking God's character. He asked aloud, "Is God's way the best way? Does God deserve to be God? Does God deserve our love?" All of heaven began watching this controversy intently, waiting for the answers. What if God had “answered” Lucifer's questions by destroying him? Being destroyed for asking questions doesn't seem fair. Can you imagine what the other angels would be thinking? At least some of them would have wondered if Lucifer was right. They might have come to the conclusion, "Don't question God, or He'll destroy you!" Now, instead of worshiping God out of love for Him, they would worship Him out of fear. Many angels would be left with doubts about God's character. Yes, God could have destroyed Satan, but that would have left behind doubt and fear. God is love. The only loving way to quell this uprising was to let it complete its course so the answer would be obvious to all. The best way to answer Satan's questions was not to destroy Satan, but for God to demonstrate why His way is the best way, why He deserves to be God, and why He deserves the love of His creation.
I am so glad I have found God and I pray deeply that soon enough everyone will!! I have experienced him in so many ways and he has answered almost every single one of my prayers. God bless you all, never stop seeking his love, he is there now and will be there forever.
there is no god outside of us, there isn't "anybody" who loves us. there is deep consiousness in us, you and me. there is nothing, in that there is everything. we are the one, we are the love. we are living in this endless love. there isn't anything what is waiting for us. everything is already IN us.
Mr Clayton Jennings, you are a true inspiration... I was once a depressed suicidal cutter who had no purpose for life. I found Jesus Christ and my life has not been the same. I have written a song that I want to produce but I dont know where to start. I want nothing more than to preach the gospel to everyone. Thank you ❤ God Bless You.
Matt, Dear Brother in Jesus, you are one amazing young man!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!! You're so kind to share this lesson you've learned, with the world. I am soooooo blessed by your courage and love for GOD and understanding of His goodness and mercy!!! Thank You!!!
Thank you for your faith and your message.... 1 Peter 1:7 just as fire tests and purifies gold our trials test and purify and strengthen and prove our true faith... love it!!!... a message I truly needed in this season of my life... thank you for being the vessel to point me to that piece of Scripture today, and may God continue to bless you!
I cant explain how Matt has helped me. these videos are always posted when i need them. i been so lost but God has found be and i am getting back on my feet. THANK YOU MATT ... God has used you to touch so many people your messages have helped me more than you can think.
praise God it wasn't until after my struggles and down falls where I found myself close to God more and more I was being pulled closer because I'm my weakness he is my strength
I love this. Who hasnt came to God with these types of questions during our times of distress? I have more than once, Ive asked God WHERE ARE YOU???! But God is still good. Oh Lord I thank you. He has always brought me out.
I watched this video a few months ago, and I didn't know why it hit me so hard, and then back on July 4th 2015 my family lost my brother in an accident. When you mentioned your friend getting in an accident on July 4th I knew there was a reason why I watched this a few months before my brothers passing. Your spoken words are amazing.
i was raised by a christian family only 16 rn and i have depression, social anxiety and suicidal thoughts every freaking day. I dont have to explain how i feel. Those who have/had them know how i feel and i wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy. God says 'dont doubt me' but tbh i really am doubting him now. I still belive that he exists and that he created everything but i think that he cares for all of us and that he loves us is false :/ because if he did he wouldnt let me go through what i am going through or anyone like me. But i still love him. Kinda.
Hey, i know just how you feel and i'm 17. See God gave his sons life for our sins. Jesus was beaten up etc. because of you and me. When I think about this it makes me cry. We should've been in his place, but God loves us so much that he let Jesus take our place. Isn't this love? Everyday we make mistakes and sins and God forgives us but some people would've abandon us. Isn't this love? 2010 my little sister died, 2011 my aunt died, last year my uncle died, this spring one of my best friends died and some weeks ago i lost an aunt, again. Add all this pain which i have had for years with the pain you described. My school life is also about to crash down. But I stick on to that God. I don't blame him for anything. I'm not disappointed in him neither am i angry. Last month I had an extrem breakdown. I lost God. I always felt his presence in my life, but suddenly he wasn't there anymore.. It felt HORRIBLE. - till date I don't know what sin i did that he left me; it could also be because of a prayer i did, i asked him to let me feel how life would be without him so that i could appreciate his presence in my life more -. I never ever! want to feel like this again, it was so much worse than all the pain before. To feel his presence again in my life took a bit, but I made it and i'm so GLAD! i did without losing the way. Now i feel his love extrem. I never been loved like this before. Not from my family. Not from friends. My life is still crashing down but i know he lets this happens for a reason. He's preparing me for bigger things. I don't know if my story could or will help you - never telled it before -. But let me say, as child of God life will never be easy! The devil is no pleased because he knows that you're on the right way. He'll attack you till you lose your hope in God. Than he's pleased. In some combats God will stand up for you but in some he'll do nothing to shape you for your future. People get strong because of the tough times you know? He wants you to get stronger. He loves you. And if there's a day where you feel unloved just pray to God. Tell him how you feel. Tell him what you need. "Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear"-Isaiah 59:1 I hope you'll find the love you've been looking for. (Srry for spelling - etc. - mistakes; I'm from Germany)
Robel Tesfu Life is hard, but the thing is to realize that you are only put through things that God knows you can handle. When the devil see's you going through this and still carrying on with life it angers him, it destroys him, and God loves to see you build your strength through past things that tested you, he will supply and in him you will not die, just know that even though we fail God every day he never fails us. We will always have the things and necessities for us to live and carry on, I pray for you and hope you get through this and one day use your testimony to change the nations and to tell others that God provides a way, and he is the way. If he didn't love you he wouldn't have placed you in this world, and give you strength and the ability to get back up because God isn't part time
"God doesn't give you the people you want, He gives you the people you need." Wow. Thank you for this. I write spoken word too. Your struggles are similar to what I have been going through. So thank you for sharing a piece of your life through your words.
It's at times like this that i remember that belief in god is possibly the biggest connector of religions. I'm a muslim, and looking through the comments it seems the majority are christian's and yet i can relate to nearly everybody's struggles as well as the feelings of the man in the video, and it's a spectacular feeling to know that belief (or lack of it) can connect everyone. No matter who you are or what you believe.
I love all of your spoken words! It reaffirms my spirit with each and every word. I pray that God keeps using you for His Glory! We need more youth with a passion for Jesus like you! God Bless You! 🙌🏼
I remember the first time I encountered Gods presence. Broken hearted, and alone he met me at that alter. A merciful, graceful love that changed me. Thanks for this video, I am encouraged.
Thank you for taking the time to produce this. 2016 and 2017 have been the most difficult years of my life. I'm still in the hard part of it right now. But the Lord strengthens the ones that he loves and that means pain is good. And we can only give Him credit for our growth when it happens. Eph 2:10, Rev 12:11.
Speaks volumes my man.felt like you were talking right to me. Not a sensitive guy bc of all the shit ive been through but this hit home for me and moved me for the first time in a long time. God bless
i've wanted so much to write a comment under this video but i am afraid someone of my family or friends will see this comment. This is one of the videos, who saved my life many times in the last year. I relate too much to the poetry. i've lost everything even myself. I tried so hard coming closer to jesus again, but somehow i feel like a million miles away. I am lost and broken and i hate myself for not being brave enough, and i hate myself for not being able to reach out to jesus. because everytime i am screaming and crying and reaching out. nothing happens, nothing changed in the last year and i am still waiting for being saved again, because i am not able to live without gods love. its enough, how many struggles do i need to take again? because i cant bare one single struggle again. i just need a saving soo bad. thanks Matt for saving my life a little bit every single time i hear a poetry of you
So needed of a message. I'm going through some needed reminder who God is. Please do not ever abandon the scripture as to God's promised word, the Holy Bible. Simply, the truth.
Thank you Matt for this - you bless so many people> i cried while listening to this. I may never meet you here, but I know we have heaven to look forward to because of Jesus.
Wow Brother in Christ...this so deeply touched me...i have a story similar to yours. I hit my head and started having panic attacks. My Grandpa died, then my Godgrandmother, then my best friend... I went through Major depression and anxiety. But God is sovereign and continues to heal my brokenness to this day. He truly is Jehovah Rophe
we have all said these things to god even ones who walked with him when he was on earth. be encouraged that he does hear our prayers, he knows our hearts more than we know ourselves. our life is to seek his will and plan. . when things do go our way will we be like temperatum spoiled children stomping our feet or do we humble ourselves before him and trust him. look at what a guy named Job had to endure in his life in the bible.. he lost everything but all of it was restored after he passed the test. there is hope, there is restoration, there is love that surrpasses all understanding. the question remains will we give up and are we willing to seek him?
i cried at this because my boyfriend of 3 years died last week in a car accident, its the most pain i've felt in my entire life but i'm not going to hurt anymore because i know he's in a better place and he's at peace. i love you forever and always, andy!
I was bullied in primary school. My grandparents died. My mother has cancer. And sometimes I just wonder so much where is God, when I was getting kicked at 9, when my grandma had Alzheimer's, when my mums getting chemo. Where is God?
Pic Perfect he's there. he knows that you are strong enough to handle everything he puts on you. everything he puts you through is meant for something. he is not going to make every bad thing go away, he's gonna show you that you are strong enough to handle what he gives you. Xo
To all: you are an immortal soul, a light of divine design. When you are born unto this world you are given His love, a mortal body, and free will. You are given a body that may get weak, that may get sick, and that may be slain. You are given free will, but free will with the consequences of choice. You may do good and you may do bad, but you live in a world where every man, woman, and child also has that free will. And you're given His love, commodity that can't be stolen, that can't be sold, that can't be broken. Where is God? That light inside of you, that is a sliver of the I AM. So when your mother is diagnosed with cancer, remember that she was given a mortal body. Why my mom? Why not your mom? Who are you to expect your loved ones to be untouched by disease or death? Are your loved ones better than your neighbor's? When there is murder and war, remember your free will. Why would God let a man murder my brother? Why would God let there be war? War is a consequence of the choices of man. Men have free will, but there is consequence. Men choose war. Men choose to murder. God must let His children make their choices and pay the debt of those choices. But remember also, He has given us His love, and He had to pay a price for His choice to love us; He sent his son to be slaughtered by man, so man could be saved from themselves. He didn't have to do it. But He chose to. Remember that. Where's God? He's in us, around us, above us, and always with us. He's begging you to do good, pleading with you to make the right choices, pushing us to love our neighbors, but always there, ready to forgive us for our failings, our sins, and our pettiness. Thank you God. I love you too.
NTIH Official I'm so very sorry for what you're going through esp at such a young age. I am loosing my dad. I'm praying right this minute for you. God will carry you through cling to Him nonstop no matter how many times a day/minute you need to call out to Him for comfort & help. The Bible says He is close to the broken hearted & crushed in spirit, that He binds up the wounds of the broken hearted, that He has every tear we ever cry saved in a bottle & He will heal, strenthen, comfort, & bless us. Reach out to Christians & churches or online- just anywhere that you can whenever you can to get through this. God bless you & He will carry you through.
For all the people that supported and watched this video thank you... truly love you all. If this video touched you please see my latest spoken word video "Where is Jesus?"

gotta admit that this video is so powerful it made me tear up. I wasn't raised in a Christian household, I found God on my own.
but God is great
First of all, if you don't like God why are you here? Secondly nice typos

+John Oliver God gave man free will because in order for a true love relationship, in order for genuine kindness, there must be the risk of true hatred and genuine evilness.

raised in a christian home and always being told that God is in control of everything , that he chooses who loves him back. it's easy to blame him for everything wrong in my life, it's easy to be angry that I'm depressed and anxious. but maybe the reason Im this way is because I don't have a relationship with God. I want to be happy and trust him, but I can't force myself to love him .
Always remember when you accept God things don't always get easier they sometimes get harder because the devil now has to fight even harder for you to part from God and give up you just have to be strong and show the devil no matter how hard he tries to knock you down and get you to part from God that it's not going to happen because you know God has your back and you will get through anything with your Faith in the Lord. Stay strong and open your heart for God ;)
It's reasonable to wonder why God didn't destroy Lucifer and his angels instead of just casting them out of heaven. One wonders why God didn't just destroy Lucifer right at the beginning, when he started murmuring. Wouldn't the destruction of Satan have prevented all the suffering in the world today?
Lucifer started this controversy by attacking God's character. He asked aloud, "Is God's way the best way? Does God deserve to be God? Does God deserve our love?" All of heaven began watching this controversy intently, waiting for the answers.
What if God had “answered” Lucifer's questions by destroying him? Being destroyed for asking questions doesn't seem fair. Can you imagine what the other angels would be thinking? At least some of them would have wondered if Lucifer was right.
They might have come to the conclusion, "Don't question God, or He'll destroy you!"
Now, instead of worshiping God out of love for Him, they would worship Him out of fear. Many angels would be left with doubts about God's character. Yes, God could have destroyed Satan, but that would have left behind doubt and fear.
God is love. The only loving way to quell this uprising was to let it complete its course so the answer would be obvious to all. The best way to answer Satan's questions was not to destroy Satan, but for God to demonstrate why His way is the best way, why He deserves to be God, and why He deserves the love of His creation.
I am so glad I have found God and I pray deeply that soon enough everyone will!! I have experienced him in so many ways and he has answered almost every single one of my prayers. God bless you all, never stop seeking his love, he is there now and will be there forever.
there is no god outside of us, there isn't "anybody" who loves us. there is deep consiousness in us, you and me. there is nothing, in that there is everything. we are the one, we are the love. we are living in this endless love. there isn't anything what is waiting for us. everything is already IN us.
Mr Clayton Jennings, you are a true inspiration... I was once a depressed suicidal cutter who had no purpose for life. I found Jesus Christ and my life has not been the same. I have written a song that I want to produce but I dont know where to start. I want nothing more than to preach the gospel to everyone. Thank you ❤ God Bless You.
Matt, Dear Brother in Jesus, you are one amazing young man!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!! You're so kind to share this lesson you've learned, with the world. I am soooooo blessed by your courage and love for GOD and understanding of His goodness and mercy!!! Thank You!!!
Made me tear up, and thats hard to do. Props for this guy who shared his testimony to help others. God is good.
this......is the greatest spoken word or poem,period.... I have ever been bleesed to listen to
Everything God lets to happen, he always got a good reason for it.
Oh my God this was like I felt... the pain of thinking that he is making fun of you and he abandon you... that pain is soul breaker..
"Your mistakes bring you one step closer to your successes. Because God can take any mess and make a message. You are PRECIOUS."
Thank you Lord!
respect for him doing this in the snow!
This gives me chill bumps on my arm
this is so beautiful. this made me think that there are other people that live with so much pain . this made me cry...
Wow. This just gave me an awakening.
Thank you for your faith and your message.... 1 Peter 1:7 just as fire tests and purifies gold our trials test and purify and strengthen and prove our true faith... love it!!!... a message I truly needed in this season of my life... thank you for being the vessel to point me to that piece of Scripture today, and may God continue to bless you!
Continue using ur talent to capture people's hearts! Ur fantastic
I cant explain how Matt has helped me. these videos are always posted when i need them. i been so lost but God has found be and i am getting back on my feet. THANK YOU MATT ... God has used you to touch so many people your messages have helped me more than you can think.
praise God it wasn't until after my struggles and down falls where I found myself close to God more and more I was being pulled closer because I'm my weakness he is my strength
I love this. Who hasnt came to God with these types of questions during our times of distress? I have more than once, Ive asked God WHERE ARE YOU???! But God is still good. Oh Lord I thank you. He has always brought me out.
I watched this video a few months ago, and I didn't know why it hit me so hard, and then back on July 4th 2015 my family lost my brother in an accident. When you mentioned your friend getting in an accident on July 4th I knew there was a reason why I watched this a few months before my brothers passing. Your spoken words are amazing.
The most beautiful things in life are the ones that can change your life.. God changed my life🔥🔥🔥
*tears rolling down*
I understand your pain and I am so glad you are able to share it with others.
i was raised by a christian family only 16 rn and i have depression, social anxiety and suicidal thoughts every freaking day. I dont have to explain how i feel. Those who have/had them know how i feel and i wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy. God says 'dont doubt me' but tbh i really am doubting him now. I still belive that he exists and that he created everything but i think that he cares for all of us and that he loves us is false :/ because if he did he wouldnt let me go through what i am going through or anyone like me. But i still love him. Kinda.
Hey, i know just how you feel and i'm 17. See God gave his sons life for our sins. Jesus was beaten up etc. because of you and me. When I think about this it makes me cry. We should've been in his place, but God loves us so much that he let Jesus take our place. Isn't this love? Everyday we make mistakes and sins and God forgives us but some people would've abandon us. Isn't this love?
2010 my little sister died, 2011 my aunt died, last year my uncle died, this spring one of my best friends died and some weeks ago i lost an aunt, again. Add all this pain which i have had for years with the pain you described. My school life is also about to crash down. But I stick on to that God. I don't blame him for anything. I'm not disappointed in him neither am i angry.
Last month I had an extrem breakdown. I lost God. I always felt his presence in my life, but suddenly he wasn't there anymore.. It felt HORRIBLE. - till date I don't know what sin i did that he left me; it could also be because of a prayer i did, i asked him to let me feel how life would be without him so that i could appreciate his presence in my life more -. I never ever! want to feel like this again, it was so much worse than all the pain before.
To feel his presence again in my life took a bit, but I made it and i'm so GLAD! i did without losing the way. Now i feel his love extrem. I never been loved like this before. Not from my family. Not from friends.
My life is still crashing down but i know he lets this happens for a reason. He's preparing me for bigger things.
I don't know if my story could or will help you - never telled it before -. But let me say, as child of God life will never be easy! The devil is no pleased because he knows that you're on the right way. He'll attack you till you lose your hope in God. Than he's pleased. In some combats God will stand up for you but in some he'll do nothing to shape you for your future. People get strong because of the tough times you know? He wants you to get stronger. He loves you. And if there's a day where you feel unloved just pray to God. Tell him how you feel. Tell him what you need. "Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear"-Isaiah 59:1
I hope you'll find the love you've been looking for.

Robel Tesfu I doubt god all the time brother but don't lose faith it will get better and he will fill the void inside of you.
Faith Horan Wow thanks dude/girl ! I am from Switzerland hihi we are neighbours :D
Jason Vaccaro I hope he does... thank you brother i wish you a blessed day
Robel Tesfu Life is hard, but the thing is to realize that you are only put through things that God knows you can handle. When the devil see's you going through this and still carrying on with life it angers him, it destroys him, and God loves to see you build your strength through past things that tested you, he will supply and in him you will not die, just know that even though we fail God every day he never fails us. We will always have the things and necessities for us to live and carry on, I pray for you and hope you get through this and one day use your testimony to change the nations and to tell others that God provides a way, and he is the way. If he didn't love you he wouldn't have placed you in this world, and give you strength and the ability to get back up because God isn't part time
We can't really fathom God's plan, but we have to put our faith on Him. All things work together for good to those who love Him. God bless you!
Beautiful. Just amazing.
don't forget job matthew, but just realise our darkest moments is the moment of god's control.
You have big faith and it helps you to creat wonderful works.
"God doesn't give you the people you want, He gives you the people you need." Wow. Thank you for this. I write spoken word too. Your struggles are similar to what I have been going through. So thank you for sharing a piece of your life through your words.
This is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you so so much
It's at times like this that i remember that belief in god is possibly the biggest connector of religions. I'm a muslim, and looking through the comments it seems the majority are christian's and yet i can relate to nearly everybody's struggles as well as the feelings of the man in the video, and it's a spectacular feeling to know that belief (or lack of it) can connect everyone. No matter who you are or what you believe.
This gave me goosebumps. I had something like that happen to me last summer and fall; felt like everything was falling apart. But God is faithful.
Amen!!! Spoke volumes to my heart &&& brought me to my knees....BEAUTIFUL!!
Took it out of my mouth.
I love all of your spoken words! It reaffirms my spirit with each and every word. I pray that God keeps using you for His Glory! We need more youth with a passion for Jesus like you! God Bless You! 🙌🏼
Great spoken word testimony my brother in Christ! Thank you!
I remember the first time I encountered Gods presence. Broken hearted, and alone he met me at that alter. A merciful, graceful love that changed me. Thanks for this video, I am encouraged.
Excellent job ☝🏼🌟🎉 Powerful Hopeful spoken word 🌟
Amazing my brother, God bless you.
Beautifully done. Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you for taking the time to produce this. 2016 and 2017 have been the most difficult years of my life. I'm still in the hard part of it right now. But the Lord strengthens the ones that he loves and that means pain is good. And we can only give Him credit for our growth when it happens.
Eph 2:10, Rev 12:11.
The raw honesty! Thanks for sharing this
Speaks volumes my man.felt like you were talking right to me. Not a sensitive guy bc of all the shit ive been through but this hit home for me and moved me for the first time in a long time. God bless
i've wanted so much to write a comment under this video but i am afraid someone of my family or friends will see this comment. This is one of the videos, who saved my life many times in the last year.
I relate too much to the poetry. i've lost everything even myself.
I tried so hard coming closer to jesus again, but somehow i feel like a million miles away.
I am lost and broken and i hate myself for not being brave enough, and i hate myself for not being able to reach out to jesus. because everytime i am screaming and crying and reaching out. nothing happens, nothing changed in the last year and i am still waiting for being saved again, because i am not able to live without gods love. its enough, how many struggles do i need to take again? because i cant bare one single struggle again. i just need a saving soo bad.
thanks Matt for saving my life a little bit every single time i hear a poetry of you
That's the way it is. Be blessed.
I cant express how much I love this.
So needed of a message. I'm going through some needed reminder who God is. Please do not ever abandon the scripture as to God's promised word, the Holy Bible. Simply, the truth.
Thank you so much...really.
Praying for you all! God bless you
Thank you Matt for this - you bless so many people> i cried while listening to this. I may never meet you here, but I know we have heaven to look forward to because of Jesus.
Wow!! I love this✊
Wow Brother in Christ...this so deeply touched me...i have a story similar to yours. I hit my head and started having panic attacks. My Grandpa died, then my Godgrandmother, then my best friend... I went through Major depression and anxiety. But God is sovereign and continues to heal my brokenness to this day. He truly is Jehovah Rophe
GOD BLESS US ALL
We walk by faith no by sight .,have faith in god even though circumstances seem hopeless
this is deep, felt the move of god in my soul
You should know god brought me here after I have been hurting and questioning .And he just answered everything I asked, through you. Thank you (:
Amen tear down my cheek
Keep praying God loves you.
Impressive how you were just able to feel blessed after all that! A true strength that God gave you.
Tonight has been hard on me. This poem brought me some joy. Thank you for sharing your art.
I am so glad someone has felt my pain I lost my dad a year ago and my life was changed
we have all said these things to god even ones who walked with him when he was on earth. be encouraged that he does hear our prayers, he knows our hearts more than we know ourselves. our life is to seek his will and plan. . when things do go our way will we be like temperatum spoiled children stomping our feet or do we humble ourselves before him and trust him. look at what a guy named Job had to endure in his life in the bible.. he lost everything but all of it was restored after he passed the test. there is hope, there is restoration, there is love that surrpasses all understanding. the question remains will we give up and are we willing to seek him?
i cried at this because my boyfriend of 3 years died last week in a car accident, its the most pain i've felt in my entire life but i'm not going to hurt anymore because i know he's in a better place and he's at peace.
i love you forever and always, andy!
I'm so grateful for this video. God bless you brother
I was bullied in primary school.
My grandparents died.
My mother has cancer.
And sometimes I just wonder so much where is God, when I was getting kicked at 9, when my grandma had Alzheimer's, when my mums getting chemo. Where is God?
He's coming
Actually, He's right there. He's just waiting for you to see Him.
look up "a message to all women" and click that first one with a red background
Pic Perfect he's there. he knows that you are strong enough to handle everything he puts on you. everything he puts you through is meant for something. he is not going to make every bad thing go away, he's gonna show you that you are strong enough to handle what he gives you. Xo
everywhere. call unto Him. He's just waiting.
So powerful. Felt it deep. Needed to hear this today. Thank you!!
To all: you are an immortal soul, a light of divine design. When you are born unto this world you are given His love, a mortal body, and free will. You are given a body that may get weak, that may get sick, and that may be slain. You are given free will, but free will with the consequences of choice. You may do good and you may do bad, but you live in a world where every man, woman, and child also has that free will. And you're given His love, commodity that can't be stolen, that can't be sold, that can't be broken. Where is God? That light inside of you, that is a sliver of the I AM. So when your mother is diagnosed with cancer, remember that she was given a mortal body. Why my mom? Why not your mom? Who are you to expect your loved ones to be untouched by disease or death? Are your loved ones better than your neighbor's? When there is murder and war, remember your free will. Why would God let a man murder my brother? Why would God let there be war? War is a consequence of the choices of man. Men have free will, but there is consequence. Men choose war. Men choose to murder. God must let His children make their choices and pay the debt of those choices. But remember also, He has given us His love, and He had to pay a price for His choice to love us; He sent his son to be slaughtered by man, so man could be saved from themselves. He didn't have to do it. But He chose to. Remember that. Where's God? He's in us, around us, above us, and always with us. He's begging you to do good, pleading with you to make the right choices, pushing us to love our neighbors, but always there, ready to forgive us for our failings, our sins, and our pettiness. Thank you God. I love you too.
I'm 15 and my mom died a couple weeks ago and this video really gets to me..
Stay strong God is always with you
God is with you. even in the pain. He lost His son as you lost your Mom. God bless you
I'm 18 and mine passed away 3 months ago
NTIH Official I'm so very sorry for what you're going through esp at such a young age. I am loosing my dad. I'm praying right this minute for you. God will carry you through cling to Him nonstop no matter how many times a day/minute you need to call out to Him for comfort & help. The Bible says He is close to the broken hearted & crushed in spirit, that He binds up the wounds of the broken hearted, that He has every tear we ever cry saved in a bottle & He will heal, strenthen, comfort, & bless us. Reach out to Christians & churches or online- just anywhere that you can whenever you can to get through this. God bless you & He will carry you through.
I hope you are doing okay. Losing our mothers is a pain unlike any other. Prayers.
He is always there knocking and waiting for us to answer. Revelation3:20 He loves us all, and will comfort and heal us with His awesome power.
Thank you! This spoke to my heart...God has healed my heart through similar situations...He is the answer to a suffering world!
amen. this is beautiful.
Much Respect, So much Truth x
Perfect timing for a perfect message ... well done Matt :) May the Lord continue you to give you strong messages for the broken hearts.
Just Amazing. God bless Bro....
