    Leah I’m 64 yrs young! I have watched several other couples videos but hands down you and Cory are RARE! You all are not comprising your FAITH. Don’t give up stay focus!!! You both are beautiful!!! Before I got married about 29yrs ago, that was the word I stood on. As Paul said, you learn to a base & abound, but whatever state you find yourself in be content. May God continue to use you & Cory to share content that can change people's lives forever. I would love to meet you guys. Cory reminds me of my husband. Their spirit and commitment to God are rare. May you both have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

      Yes it is so hard to find genuine ppl of God nowadays& when you see them you are left astounded and inspired. I really pray the Lord truly raises more ppl for his kingdom!

    The number of people you've reached by showing the good example (talking about your faith) for this generation is beyond 120k.

    Young lady, you are wise beyond your years. I love your content , grace, style and your love for God. Keep doing what you do. Your content is always so humble and your heart is in the right place. I normally don't comment as much but just wanted to say thank you for following how you know God's called you to move.

  • @localtravelcouplejams

    My grandmother used to say "numbers mean nothing but experiences are everything"
    Thank you and Congratulations 🎊

    Yes as a nurse I see this all the time, and people that are not content and then there is so much guilt at the end. It is sad. I agree enjoy the journey. Thank you for the message and congratulations

    I'm working on finding contentment for myself as I enter my 43rd year of life. I always thought I'd be married with kids by this point and I don't have children or a husband. I also thought I'd be more advanced and more secure in my career by now. I appreciate what you had to say about not idolizing benchmarks. I'm trying to focus on finding the joy in the moment I'm in and being grateful and trusting God for the journey that will get me to the next triumph.

      Keep trusting God, and keep serving Him through the life He has given you and the "small" you think you have and the Lord will bless you when His time is right and restore all the years you've "lost" in Jesus name!
      I pray that our Good Lord will restore and multiply the joy and peace of the Holy Spirit in your heart and life in Jesus name! Amen!

  • @miriamchirowodza8332
    @miriamchirowodza8332 Před rokem +1

    Wow this is so true. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone so why not be grateful for the gift of today and not wish away days so as to do such and such. Then the whole life will be about getting to a certain milestone and never enjoying any season 🙆🏼‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️. You are an amazing young lady. May God keep on using you to touch lives on this platform

    @MichelleSears Před rokem +2

    Leah thank you so much for being real. When we share biblical wisdom it's for God's glory not our own so it's amazing to see our channels grow but like you said, "all glory goes to God!" Be blessed!

  • @sher-sasha9817

    I'm going to find contentment by serving others (today) specifically the under privileged in my community. Thanks for the video and your commitment to the Lord.

  • @obiageliarisamadiebo4240

    I am a new subscriber 😆.
    Watched your short on decent Christian dressing and was like that's great but listening to your hubby talk about the place of the HOLY SPIRIT in a GODly relationship blew my mind and opened my heart to knowledge I never knew existed ❤️.
    GOD bless you both real good, in JESUS Name, Amen Amen Amen

    Wowza! Congrats on 100k+! 👏🏽🎉 Well-deserved. I needed to hear this message about contentment with where I am and not idolizing milestones. You do post quality content and I'm glad for you that you're not feeling pressured to upload for the algorithm. Thank you for this message, Leah and staying true to what God has called you to do to help others🙂

    Hi Leah,
    This was an amazing perspective. Tomorrow is not promised for any of us which can be easy to forget. I much rather be content and chill not rushing into the next thing to do. There is no need to rush anything. Thank you for your message on being content, being at peace, and having joy with where you are.

  • @silentlyflourish

    I want you to know that you've changed my life a lot, I have learnt so much from you even from your normal day to day routine; vlogs
    I can't type it all... Just want to say thank you and may GOD continue to bless you and Cory so I can be blessed too🙏🙏😊😊😊😊

  • @blessed_lana6965
    @blessed_lana6965 Před rokem +2

    @lifeinspirations2244 Před rokem +1

    This is definitely a great perspective to have leah. I myself have had to remind myself to live in the moment because God is always working/always moving regardless where I am in life. And he is using every season for our gd and for his glory.
