A woman shared the one and only way humans can please God. Her powerful words and message show how fallen humans are and God’s immense and unending love for us. Watch the short but moving clip to hear the only thing people can do to make God happy and please him.

The world is a fallen and broken place, full of hurting and struggling people. No one would have a chance without Christ’s love, mercy, grace and forgiveness. We would all be destined for an eternity, lost and separated from Him, where there would be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a woman beautifully and powerfully explains the one thing we can do to please God. And because of our fallen nature, it’s not what we do but what Jesus Christ can and does for us.

“Like, I’ve met people who feel like, ‘Oh, my past is too crazy. I’m not good enough. I don’t know how Jesus can use me; how Jesus can love me,’” she said. “And the reality is none of us are, you know, in our own strength, in our own ability – none of us are good enough.”

Later in the clip, she mentions the Holy Spirit descending upon Jesus, what God said about His Son and how that relates to us today.

“And the Father said, ‘This is my Son in whom I am well pleased,’” she said. “Now, that moment was not just a random thing. It was that God the Father was revealing to humanity: the only way you can please me is in Him. This is the One who pleases me, and you cannot please me outside of Him.”

God sent His only Son and completely changed everything. Christ willingly went to the cross, suffered and died on our behalf. In doing so, He completely and forever won victory over sin, shame and death. We can be forgiven and experience eternal life because He was forsaken and broken for you and me.

Matthew 17:5 “While he was still talking, a bright cloud came over them: and a voice out of the cloud, saying, ‘This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased; give ear to him.”

Experiencing the fullness of heaven begins with childlike faith. Trust, seek, and follow Jesus. This simple approach unlocks deeper intimacy with Him, granting access to the heavenly realms where He reigns. As we journey with Jesus, He continually invites us to embrace more of His presence. All that's required is a willing step.

One woman shared her journey of trying to complain less and trust God more. She mentioned that she has made a concerted effort to stop grumbling and whining about situations and circumstances and instead focus more on God’s plan. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear what the young woman had to say.

Everyone whines and complains at one point or another. It’s human nature to voice complaints whenever something is not going our way. We all want to go through life without any pain, struggles or worries, but unfortunately, that is not possible. That is a fact of life.

Situations will arise in life that we don’t like or appreciate, and they might even result in pain and discomfort. Often, circumstances are totally out of our control, and we just have to grin and bear it. But what would happen if we put more trust and faith in God instead of the default human response of grumbling and complaining?

In a clip posted on YouTube, one woman explained that she has really tried hard to do just that. She even mentions a specific instance where she reached out to Jesus Christ and said she was through with complaining. Instead, she was going to trust and rely upon Him and His plan.

“But I don’t want to look back on this season, and be, like, ‘I complained my whole way through this,’” she said. “Don’t want to do that. And so, I’ve been really intentional about being present. This is what God has me in.”

Later in the clip, she mentions the Israelites and their wandering in the desert for 40 years.

“And I do not want to end up like the Israelites,” she said. “Because I’m telling you right now what should have taken them 11 days took them 40 years. And sometimes, when we keep complaining, and we have that lack of faith, we stay stuck, and we’re prolonging what God has for us.”

Philippians 2:14 “Do all things without protest and arguments;”

Jelly Roll shared how his and Brandon Lake’s song “Hard Fought Hallelujah” is touching hearts. The popular musician mentioned what he hears from and how people have reacted to the hit song. Watch the short but powerful clip to listen to what Jelly Roll had to say about the response to “Hard Fought Hallelujah.”

The world is a sad, lonely and broken place. It’s full of people who are hurting and struggling, hoping for anything to alleviate the pain. Sadly, these individuals will hunt and search everywhere for a solution. They may find a temporary fix, but soon enough, the pain and the heartache are back again.

There is an answer to all that pain and suffering: Jesus Christ. His healing, comfort, forgiveness and love will never wear off or fade away. In a clip posted on YouTube, Jelly Roll and Brandon Lake discuss their song “Hard Fought Hallelujah.” In the short clip, Jelly Roll mentions how the song has impacted him and what he has continually heard from others.

“Like, everywhere I go, this is the song people are talking to me about right now,” Jelly Roll said. “It’s really cool, man, and I love the conversation it’s creating. Like, real conversations are being had online. Sometimes not fun, but sometimes great, right? It’s like, it’s like, here’s my deal: I think it’s our jobs, where in faith, to push that envelope anyways. Like those conversations needed to be created.”

Later in the clip, Jelly Roll says he knows how he and others are turning toward God in response to the song.

“But I can tell you what’s also happening is millions of people like me are finding a safe place right now in God,” he said. “You know what I mean? For sure, because I’m getting the messages that are like, ‘Yo, I’m like a fence-riding Christian, too. Like, I kind of believe. I grew up with some core values but kind of got away from it, and you make me feel safe being, like, talking about God again.’”

Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before me, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”

A stranger gave Hoda Kotb some powerful and moving advice. The former host of the Today Show was on a plane when she received some insightful words of wisdom from someone. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear what a stranger told Hoda.

Life is a series of unexpected events. We cannot and will not be able to predict what will happen from one moment to the next. Throughout life, there are instances and causes for celebration. Sadly, sometimes life will hurt and result in an immense amount of pain and suffering.

No one enjoys those painful and heartbreaking occurrences. But what if those times of terrible suffering and heartache are not just about and for us? What if they are for a greater purpose? The Bible says that in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him.  

That was the message that a stranger on a plane shared with Hoda. This person said that the difficulty and pain she was experiencing at the time were not just for and about her but could be used to help others. In a clip posted on social media, Hoda talked about her interaction with this stranger and the words of wisdom he shared with her.

She mentions that at the time, she was battling breast cancer and had just undergone a procedure. She was on a plane, sitting next to an individual who struck up a conversation with her. Eventually, after a lot of probing questions from the man, she shared that she had breast cancer and had undergone a mastectomy. She asked him not to just think of her as someone who had breast cancer.

What he said next shocked her.

“He said, ‘Breast cancer is part of you. Just like going to college and getting married and working at NBC,’” Hoda recalled. “He goes, ‘I’m going to give you some advice.’ “He said, ‘Don’t hog your journey. It’s not just for you. You can take your stuff and put it deep in your pockets and go to your grave, or you can help somebody. You decide.’”

Philippians 2:4 “Not looking everyone to his private good, but keeping in mind the things of others.”

Mattew was raised in church, raised by a father who was an unconventional preacher. He was baptized in junior high, full of faith and hope. But after high school, everything changed. One by one, he lost the people who meant the most to him - his grandfather, his grandmother, and then, most painfully, his mother. The weight of that grief pulled him into a spiral of alcohol and hard drugs, trying to numb what felt unbearable. in 2019, Matthew hit rock bottom with a near-fatal drug overdose. That was the moment his friends and family, heartbroken and desperate, gave him a choice: get clean and fight for your life, or lose us completely. By the grace of God, Matthew chose life. Now, five years sober, Mattew stands as a living testimony of redemption. He volunteers with a prison ministry, pouring his heart into others who feel lost just like he did. And through his story - his pain, his healing, and his faith - God has brought 20 souls to Christ. He was lost, but now he is found ❤️ #testimony #redemption #sobrietysuccess #faith #godisgood #prisonministry #prodigalson

Lauren Daigle reveals what inspired her to write “Thank God I Do.” One of the biggest names in Christian music explained the story behind and the origins of the hit song. Watch the short but powerful clip where Lauren talks about “Thank God I Do” and what moved her to write it.

This world is a sad and broken place full of people who are lost, struggling and hurting. Many are looking for anything to help them make it through whatever situation they are facing. Sadly, way too many people will continue searching, never finding the one true answer to all their worries, anxieties and heartache.

However, because we live in a broken world, we, as Christians, are not immune to experiencing painful and frightening situations. We will still encounter circumstances that cause fear and anxiety. But because we know and have faith in a gracious, loving God, we know He’ll see us through whatever the situation.

But what about those who don’t know God? That was the thought in Lauren’s mind when she wrote, “Thank God I Do.” She was praising Him because she is a follower of His and knows He will guide her and protect her in whatever situation she faces.

“I find myself whenever you’re living this human walk, right, on this planet; it’s not that we escape the things that are human; it’s that he gives us the sword to go through it, right?” Lauren said. “He gives us the power to go through it. And I just thought, when I was having these panic attacks, what would people do if they didn’t know the truth? Like, if they didn’t know what I know? I know that I’m going to make it through to the other side because of Him. I know that. But what would people do without it? And that song was written kind of out of that experience.”

What a powerful testimony about the peace and comfort found only in Him.

John 16:33 “I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Candace Cameron Bure warns that Satan uses our past to hold us back. The actress, author and podcast host discussed a common attack used by the enemy. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear Candace mention how the devil will use past sins and mistakes to keep us from moving forward.

No one is perfect. Humans are a fallen and broken group, which is why Jesus Christ willingly went to the cross. He took the sins of humanity upon Himself to the cross, forever winning the victory over sin and death.

Even after accepting Christ’s love and forgiveness, humans are not perfect; they are just forgiven. While Christ may blot out our past and essentially forget our past sins and transgressions, we can often hold onto and dwell on previous stumbles and failures. Satan understands this and will use this to his advantage.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Candace explains how Satan works and what he does to try to keep us from fulfilling God’s will for our lives. She adds that a constant spiritual battle is happening all around us, with powerful, unseen forces at work.

“It is so eye-opening when I remember, like, this is not just about my flesh and blood, the here and the now, what I can see and feel, and who I’m talking to in this moment,” she said. “But there are other greater things at work that I cannot see in the spiritual realm.”

Later in the clip, Candace states that Satan is constantly attacking, always trying to steal souls by any means necessary.

“And the enemy is always fighting for our soul, and he’s poking at us from all different ways,” she said. “And a lot of times, that’s mentally. You know, he’s whispering lies into our minds to make us keep remembering things that God’s already forgiven us for.”

Ephesians 6:12 “For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world-rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens.”

A woman miraculously walks away after a tree crashes down on her car. The terrifying incident, which was caught on camera, involved the tree unexpectedly falling on the back of her car. Watch the short but amazing and frightening moment when the tree lands on the car and how the woman miraculously walks away from it.

Horrible, awful and painful things happen to all of us at one time or another. Sadly, as much as we may try, there is no way to avoid situations that result in pain and agony. It’s part of living in a broken and fallen world that sin has ruined.

No matter what we are experiencing, we can always rely upon the Lord’s guidance, protection and love to see us through. We may not always understand why something happened in life, but we can rest assured that God is still in control. Humans tend to complain and grumble when things don’t go according to plan. But have you stopped to consider how bad that situation could have been if God had not gotten involved? A clip posted on social media perfectly illustrates this point.

In the short 36-second clip, a white car is seen driving into the frame and then slowly coming to a stop. Viewers can see a heavily wooded area on the right side of the vehicle. Several large trees are spotted, and leaves are strewn about the ground. Seconds after the car pulls up, a massive tree comes crashing down, essentially destroying the back of the car. It looks like something out of a movie.

Moments after the tree has fallen, the driver’s door opens, and a woman jumps out of the vehicle. She quickly runs away from the horrific and unbelievable scene.

If she had failed to pull up even one or two more inches, she would have been crushed and instantly killed by the fallen tree. God’s hand of protection was surely upon this woman in this terrifying moment.

Isaiah 41:10 “Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.”

One man shared a powerful illustration of God’s love using his son. His perfect example accurately describes God’s never-ending, unconditional love for humanity. Watch the short but powerful clip to see and hear his example, which helps to put God’s love for us into perspective.

The human brain is limited. Even the most intelligent person alive, the individual with the highest IQ, will not come close to understanding God's ways. Our minds cannot grasp and comprehend many concepts and aspects of God.

One of the things that is especially hard to understand about God is the depth, magnitude and never-ending nature of His love for all humanity. Most people likely cannot imagine loving every single person on Earth. Yes, there are people we love, but there are also those we really don’t. While we don’t hate them, we aren’t going to go out of our way to offer them any assistance. We merely tolerate them when we must.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one man beautifully explains and illustrates God’s love and uses his son and his relationship to him as an example. Much like a father’s love for his son, God’s love for us was not earned, and there is nothing we could have done to earn it. He gives it because that is who He is; we are his children.

“This boy didn’t work to be my son,” he said. “He didn’t deserve it. He still can’t speak, and then you saw the noises he was making. He was my son because we wanted him to be here. When you’re a child of God, you’re a child of God because of God’s grace and God’s love for you. You didn’t earn it, deserve it and you couldn’t ever pay for it.”

Later in the clip, the man mentions what those who fast will learn and discover in the process.

“When we fast, we don’t make him our Father,” he said. “Fasting doesn’t make him your father. Fasting makes you aware of the love and the care that He has. Because sometimes we’re just distracted, and He helps us to slow everything down so that we become near to Him, so we can hear Him and be aware of Him.”

Romans 5:8 “But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.”
