Grief vs. Grace

What If? Walking by Faith So You Don’t Live with Regret

Have you ever wondered, “What if I had just trusted God and taken the step?” In this episode of Healing in His Hands, I’m sharing a powerful devotion from John 10:10 that challenged me to think about the dangers of living in fear instead of faith. So often, we stay where it’s comfortable because the unknown feels scary.. but what if the abundant life God has for us is waiting on the other side of our obedience? I open up about my own journey of leaving everything familiar behind and moving to Humboldt County. It wasn’t easy, and it certainly wasn’t comfortable, but I knew God was calling me to take that step. Looking back now, I can see His hand in every detail and the countless ways He has blessed me because I chose obedience over fear. If God has been nudging you toward something—a move, a ministry, a new opportunity, a relationship, or simply a deeper level of trust—this episode is for you. Don’t let fear write your story. Walk in faith and see what God can do. Scripture: John 10:10, Deuteronomy 31:8

God, Use Me… But I Didn’t Know It Would Cost This

In this episode of Healing in His Hands, we walk through Judges 11:29–36 and unpack the weight of our words when we pray. Sometimes we ask God to “use us” without fully understanding what that may require, what it may cost, or how deeply He may stretch us in the process. I share personal experiences of surrendering myself to God as His vessel, while also realizing that obedience and purpose can come with unexpected lessons, heartbreak, refinement, and growth. This episode is a reminder that God hears us, sees our hearts, and still moves with grace. Even when we pray from a place of limited understanding. If you’ve ever prayed bold prayers, struggled with the outcome of obedience, or wrestled with trusting God through the process, this conversation is for you. Scripture: Judges 11:29–36

When God Pours Back Into the Pourer

Some days God speaks through His Word… and some days He speaks through people. In this episode of Healing in His Hands, I share the unexpected encounters I had throughout my day. The moments where God used others to pour back into me, encourage me, and remind me of the calling He has placed on my life. As someone who often pours into others, this episode is a reminder that God sees the ones who serve, encourage, and carry others through hard seasons. He knows exactly when we need to be refilled. We also dive into the importance of using the spiritual gifts God has given us and why those gifts were never meant to stay hidden. Through 1 Timothy, we’re reminded to steward what God has placed inside of us and to continue inspiring others to stay close to Christ, no matter what life looks like. If you’ve been feeling weary, unseen, or questioning your purpose… this episode is for you.

Saved by Faith, Not by Ritual..

What does it really mean to be saved? In this episode of Healing in His Hands, we dive into Romans 10:5–15 and unpack the true way to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. I also share something deeply personal.. how I have peace knowing Vanessa and Nick are with the Lord, not because of religious works or baptism, but because they confessed Jesus as Lord over their lives. We also talk about fear.. especially the fear of death that so many adults and even children carry.. and why, as believers, we don’t have to live in fear. Our earthly bodies may pass away, but in Christ, death is not the end… it’s eternity with Him. This episode is for anyone wrestling with grief, salvation, fear, or wanting to understand what God’s Word truly says about eternal life.

Grief vs. Grace

Grief is heavy. It comes in waves, in quiet moments, in memories, and in the ache of what’s been lost. In this episode, I open my heart about the grief I’m carrying right now, and the grace of God meeting me in the middle of it. Even in sorrow, He is present. Even in tears, He is faithful. Even in brokenness, He is still holding me together. If you’ve ever wondered how grief and grace can exist at the same time, this conversation is for you.
