Please pray for all my hallucinations to be gone from me forever and to never come back
Get your soul healed. Ask Holy Spirit to show you exactly what that means.
praying for you❤
Samantha, I love you as my sister in Christ..the Lord Jesus is the healer of all infirmities. May He bring His perfection to your mind and heart. May He uphold you and strengthen you to break any chains of the enemy. May His love penetrate your entire being, guiding you always. Amen
Amen@@sarahamaral2931
Please look into the healing power of the holy communion. That's a teaching by Joseph Prince
It really works because it's a biblical principle and the testimonies are mind blowing. Also, do read Dr. Caroline leaf's book Switch on your brain. It teaches how God transforms our lives backed by science. Hope it blesses you!
I appreciate her transparency greatly. Many women are not so honest with themselves. Beautiful testimony.
God plans are so much better than ours🙌🏾✝️ Powerful testimony 🙌🏾
His thoughts and ways are higher than ours. He is the God of all mankind and He knows what He is doing. Let us put our trust in Him. }

Thank God for your life. I've always felt the need to belong and be accepted. I've constantly been body shamed and isolated. But this testimony has inspired me and helped me to look beyond the opinions and thoughts of the world but focus on the only opinion that mattered the only thought that counted, the only conviction I needed. The thought of God towards me, christs opinion about me and the holy spirits conviction
We "workout" our salvation with fear and trembling. 🙂
So proud of you, Haley! Your testimony inspires me so much!
MOM TIP…
if you want to work on your body make sure you don’t talk about losing weight in front of your kids. Instead, let your kids know that you go to the gym to relax your brain and build up muscles. If they ask how that works tell them that lifting weights or doing HIIT is a sport and it makes the brain happy just like they feel when they do their favorite sport. As for the muscle you could keep it light and say that muscles make carriying XYZ easier. Who doesn’t want to be stronger anyway?
To recap… LEAVE THE BODYWEIGHT PART OUT OF IT. If that’s your struggle fine but don’t wire your kids that way.
Touch grass.

What are you on about? This was a sensible and educative comment. I think you might be projecting just a little…
PTL🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is a great way to approach talking about exercise and diet. When my kids ask why I go to the gym I say “to treat my body well” or “to keep my muscles strong.”
Mary jane. There’s no one like her. She’s led many broken souls to Christ. Forever thankful for her.
I have the same problem with not feeling thin enough to. It started in childhood and has remained with me. My father was abusive and told me when I was a little girl I would grow up to be 300lbs and how big my but is. I'm the shortest girl in the family so even if I weighed 99 lbs I looked fat, that's what I saw and believed. I hated my body and how fat I was. I stopped eating for days then would eat and go more days without food. As a teenager, I was so warped in my thinking that I didn't think about the fact I had to wear sweats under my pants to keep them up was a sign I was to thin. All I heard was my fathers voice over and over telling me I'm fat and will be 300lbs by the time I grew up. When I became an adult I married a man who said after I had our first child he won't be married to a fat woman I did everything to stay thin. It didn't matter what anyone said all I saw was a fat person in the mirror. I have always wanted to be invisible and for a while thought I achieved that. At 40 years old I was still wearing a size 0 in pants and not eating normal meals. I am a Christian but this was so deep I couldn't get passed it. I'm 54 now and still go days without eating bc it's just normal to me. When my oldest daughter was a teenager as she grew out of her clothes I got her jeans bc I was small enough to fit them. My daughter has nothing but contempt for me now. Both my daughters are bigger than me but thin and beautiful. I don't know how to give this to Jesus and feel ok with what I look like. I have been searching for that healing since my 20s and I haven't gotten it. I have always felt like I can never be loved unless I'm thin. And when I look in the mirror I'm ashamed. It's actually made me ill. My bones are brittle, I have arthritis too young, and even though I'm divorced I'll never be able to have a relationship with a man and get married again. I'd rather be alone than be vulnerable again. I can't imagine what it would have been like to be accepted for who I am and loved unconditionally.
@Leokat334 Thank you for having the courage to share your story with us. I've found an article with many resources that may provide you support on overcoming this. Please know that you're not alone and God loves you beyond your imagination. www2.cbn.com/article/not-selected/overcoming-eating-disorders
@leokat334. May God comfort and strengthen you. God loves you. See Isaiah 43:1-4.
God made you for a purpose. You are more than your outward appearance. Your identity worth and value are in Jesus Christ.
I say all this because I care. I had been battling eating disorders for most of my life. When I learned that I can find my identity worth and value not by the world’s standards but by Jesus Christ, I became free.
May you find that freedom too.🙏✝️🕊️🌅
The Maker is your husband that will love you unconditionally. Not to lure you but surrender to Jesus your problem. You are not alone. ~Isaiah 54:5
Such a very needed message! God bless you!!
Praise the Lord
I feel you past pain 😔
My Jesus I love you thank you for bringing me to this video. ❤️🙏🏼 my identity is in you
@geovanascalia8187, we are so blessed to hear that this story touched you. Jesus' love defines you. He is for you.
God bless you sister! ❤
I knew that I was anorexic and went to get help. I realized I was going to go through so much pain. Satan plants this seed. You have to get with the right group. Renew your mind. Phil 4:8. I have to do this daily. You are worthy not because of what we do. It's through his grace. Praise God for his grace. We just need to learn to help others as we heal. Amen.
I want to be anorexic so badly! How did you do it..? Any tips? Can I pray to Jesus to make me skinny and anorexic!? Please pray that I can starve myself. Praise god
Beyond amazing!!!!
This was a blessing 🩶🩶🩶
Amen!!!
Yeah people should have standards, being beautiful is of a higher standard than being ugly

Stop it.. be nice. Christians have every right to be narcissistic.
