A Grateful Heart in Times of Crisis: Amy’s Mom Update and How To Handle Life's Storms
Manage episode 434324321 series 3457493
Welcome back to the "You Are More" podcast, where today I’m taking a bit of a detour from our usual conversations to share something more personal and raw. Life has a way of surprising us, sometimes with unexpected challenges that remind us of what truly matters… My family has been walking through one of those seasons, and I want to give you an update on where we are and what I’ve learned.
Recently, we had a sudden and traumatic event in our family—my mom had to be life-flighted to the hospital after suffering from multiple seizures. It has been one of the most challenging weeks of our lives, but through it all, we’ve seen God’s hand, His mercy, and His favor in ways that have left us deeply grateful.
In today’s episode, I’ll share the experience, how my family rallied together, and how gratitude has been our anchor during this time. If you're walking through a difficult season, I hope this episode encourages you to hold on to your faith, lean on your tribe, and never take for granted the moments you have with the people you love.
Join me as I reflect on:
- The importance of your tribe during times of crisis.
- How gratitude can bring light, even in the darkest moments.
- Why we should always cherish and love the people around us.
- How faith and prayer have carried us through this unexpected journey.
- Finding strength in difficult circumstances and trusting God's plan.
Life is fragile, and this past week has reminded me to never take a single day for granted. Hug your loved ones, tell them you love them, and hold onto gratitude—because even in the midst of trials, we can always find reasons to give thanks.
PS! If you’re walking through your own tough season, please reach out—I’d love to pray for you and stand with you during this time.
