In My Brokeness…

- …and my breakdown this past Monday That’s right, after 3 years of enduring pain, I had a total breakdown, temper tantrum…. leaving me feeling hopeless and without faith that my morning would ever come. After 9 months of having no teeth and inability to eat solid food or speak without spunding like a toddler with a lisp….. Monday after hearing news that my restoration was being pushed back again left me broken and feeling defeated.
I hope sharing this with you guys helps someone else out there walking in a similar path of despair, brokenness, suffering, feeling depleted and defeated. You are not alone. ❤️ I see you and more importantly, God sees you. So hold on tight! And choose to press into Him and keep the faith. Love you all in Jesus’ name.
“Friends” that leave when the chips are down , weren’t ever, never a friend! You may not see yourself as beautiful, but we ALL see you as very beautiful! Inside and out!
Like, like like! 😊❤🫂

Amen 😊
💔 Absolutely 💯 % true, even though sometimes it really is hard to come to terms with such a reality. Sometimes it takes years. Years to come to understand those people never truly cared. Years to get to know them, and realize who those people really are, maybe always were. It's just that love can blind us, to see the real them, and realize how little some people actually care. How little.
You may never see this comment, Heather, but hopefully it will help someone. Hearing your story of being broken so you could be rebuilt touched me so much, and reminded me of my own testimony. When I came to Christ at the tender age of 17, my life was shattered in pieces. All I could do was offer those broken pieces to Christ, saying Lord, this is all I have. It isn't much, but it's Yours. You know what He did? The Lord took those broken pieces, and made something beautiful, something useful. Like a mosaic. He didnt try to put the pieces together, to be like it was, the Lord made something brand new, something useful to Him. I am a mosaic. And what He has made is beautiful. I have mosaics all over my home to remind me of this. I love the Lord so much, and I am grateful He took the broken pieces, and made something new 💗 I'm praying for you today, and anyone else that may read this. Give your broken pieces to Jesus,and let Him make something brand new!!!
Amen💞
That's a beautiful testimony.

Amen⚓
This is so beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes. God did a wonderful job rebuilding your mosaic. 🙏💖
"For man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." You are never more beautiful than when you are vulnerable and giving God the glory. Keep on, Sister!
Heather, I truly understand. I was in a car accident five and half months pregnant at the time. My legs were crushed & a multitude of other body damage. I had six surgeries and my last one was over 11 hours long. I was in the hospital for nine months and shipped out of state to different facilities for different surgeries. I missed my other children with all my heart. I was told I would never walk again at the age of 39 years old. I remember thinking once my baby was born and safe, I would no longer want to live in this world confined to a wheelchair. I kept thinking what kind of a mother or wife would I be. Then the time was near I didn’t tell anyone my plans and then the phone rang it was a nurse from the hospital asking for me. I have never met her and didn’t know who she was. She said Mrs Camacho she said I don’t know your religious beliefs etc but God came to me and laid it on my heart and said to tell you that he has plans for you and that your life is worth living and you are here for a reason and last she said he loves and you are not alone 😢 I came home in a wheelchair my legs destroyed, they looked like spaghetti after over two years in a wheelchair, I started lifting myself up and leaning on the counter, next I went to a small town physical therapist and said I want to walk again, she looked at my medical files and said I’m sorry but it doesn’t look possible. I remember asking her for a chance telling her does she know who God is, because he made me a promise. That doctor took a chance on me, you see my legs are numb from nerve damage and I can’t feel them, they pieced my legs together the best they could, filling me with metal but I prevailed and fought and walked again. The first steps I took at home was on Easter something told me to get up and walk. My husband was on the phone and I walked past him and he dropped the phone and held me and he cried his eyes out. All things are possible through Christ 🙌🏼 Heather you and your Precious Family is always in our Prayers 🙏🏼 You have been through so much and have came so far ❤️ I wanted to share my testimony with you ❤️🙏🏼
❤ You truly have been there sister. Blessings to you and your family.
Thank you for sharing. People like you make a difference. 🙏🏼✝️🙏🏼
OMG 🙈🙈🙈🙈....... You poor thing! My heart hurts for you.
❤💗🌹❤️💗
You are correct.... an experience like yours does humble a person...... No one will know your pain and struggle unless they have been there also.
It's not easy..... I recall saying the same in my struggle "why God why!"
"What am I suppose to take away from this experience?".......
🐾 One Day at a Time.....🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😘🙌🏼
🙏🏼 Put Jesus in your daily life. That's salvation. Scripture tells us many friends will fall away, they are not your true friends.
Your family is the family of God. I learned that one.
I lost the love of my life 3 months after your trauma. I have been hiding since then and cut myself from my friends. Even my prior close relationship with God suffered. My brokenness is still there but I know it is time to try to live again. I have prayed for you and will continue to do so. My husband loved your onion soup recipe and maybe it’s time to make it again. Your honesty and openness has helped me to heal. I still need to find my purpose in life now and need to keep trusting in God to show me the way. Love you so much and I can’t tell that you don’t have teeth. That probably doesn’t help but it is true. You have and continued to help me recover. I send blessings to you and your precious family.
What a beautiful soul you are. And you will recover. CS Lewis reminds us that when we lose a spouse it’s like losing a leg. Eventually you will figure out a way to walk, but you will never be two-legged again. 😘😘🙏🏻🙏🏻
Praying for you today ❤
Prayers for you ❤
Bless you ❤❤❤❤
Love, Light, and Many Blessings on Your Healing Journey. 🙏😇✨💫🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺
Legal stuff can drag on. My husband almost died in a wreck in 2004, in Wyoming. No fault of his own. Had to get a lawyer, lost our home, had to move into government housing. We had been in bankruptcy prior to his wreck. He finally got his settlement in 2007. Was a very rough time for us. But Thank God he brought us through the storm.
Heather, I had cancer in my gums 11 years ago and had to have a new jawbone made from the fibula bone in my leg. I laid in the hospital in complete vulnerability, but not anything like you. I had to learn to walk on my leg again and had to come to terms with my new face. Like you said, this is not easy for a woman. BUT, "you are fearfully and wonderfully made.." Someone once told me that I need to see myself as God does. Imagine that Heather. That's powerful. So allow yourself too have your moments, I still do, but sometimes we have to go through things so people can see our faith in God. When we have setbacks and challenges, but our eyes are still focused on him and we can worship and praise him with all of our might... that's your testimony. Just imagine the hearts you are touching. For such a time as this Heather. 🙏
Hang in there. He is carrying you with strength, grace, and so much love🙏❤️
Heather, this is part of the healing process, there is no shame in this.
We don't judge you on your physical appearance, we just need to know what's in your heart and soul. They look divine to me. I love you.
Oh the suffering you have endured! You absolutely deserve to have a breakdown. I would probably have one every day if I was going through all the trauma you have gone through. But oh dear Lord, you also see the blessings as you endure. That is truly inspiring. It is humbling and builds my faith and perseverance. You talk about your blessings, but you also help me realize how blessed I truly am despite what I endure.
love this, Ginger!!!! xxoxoox
Amen 🙏😇
AMEN
I want you to know I was in a terrible car accident also. Fortunately, it was just me. I have several herniated discs, cut spinal cord Traumatic Brain Injury. I walked with a cane for years. I lost all my teeth at 31 broken under the gums. I had several infections had bone added in a hospital surgery and still my implants failed. I have been off my cane now for 6 yrs. There is more but “you got this sweety”. You are a survivor if it were not for my daughter I don’t think I would have made it! Our children are our salvation! You are not alone & I am happy you found another man to Love!🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
“Many are called but Few are Chosen”
When I was healing from cancer I watched your videos. Your kind soul helped me feel calm during my fear as I was healing. I feel your pain deep in my soul. Thank you, these are small words but it's truthfully real and God bless you and your family as you all heal.
Amen. I to feel Heather's Pain. If I care for someone and they are hurting I hurt as well 😢 Sending much love and blessing's your way Xo
Stronger together Xo
Love, Light, and Healing Blessings. 🙏😇✨💫🌱🌿🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺
Heather daughter of the most high God he has you here on earth for a greater purpose , Apostle Paul went through so much in his ministry, we can't share what we don't experience, " Be still and know that I am God full restoration will come you've been through hell , but you won't end up in eternal fire , for the gift of a home with our King , it amazes me that we won't even remember this life someday and happiness and joy neverending love we will have , I pray all this hurt and pain will be overcome and you will be a stronger warrior will come forth , blessings . S.C. Delia
You are a sweet, compassionate woman. You have suffered so much I can’t imagine. But know you are loved by many. You don’t know what a blessing you have been to me and others. You have such a great mission on this earth to help others. Showing your grace and love is amazing. Bless you and your family.
🌬🙏Amen 😇
Beautifully said! 💗
You are precious and BEAUTIFUL 😊.
The very FACT that you are here and have a voice to exalt our Father is evidence of His Love and Grace. A very appreciated GIFT for us.
I love you sister as so many do. The Father's Love clearly shines through you. ❤
🌬🙏Yes it does. 😇Amen ❤
Isn't it wonderful that God is weeding out the people you don't need in your life. You are very blessed to have good, loyal, kind friends. Praise be Jesus Christ.
This is what devil wants. He wants break you. Dont let him ❤
The devil is a astute, strong and powerful enemy. He may win a battle, or two.
However God is most powerful and always wins the war. God is in charge and reigns Supreme on His throne.🙏🙏🙏
First I want to say that I fully understand you as my wife has some of the same issues. As a woman beauty is not only physical, the FATHER has given you a powerful platform and testimony with which to glorify HIM! You said something that was quiet and powerful.....BE STILL, THE FATHER HAS YOU IN HIS ARMS. Your journey and testimony isn't over yet...all in his time, not ours. Blessings my Sister for you and all around you. Shalom.... May you find peace in him.
Beautiful. Amen.
Beauty comes from the ashes Heather. Put on your Armor of God every morning!! You have got this Girl!! Praying for you 🙏🏻❤️
Every. Single. Morning. Amen!
🌬🙏Amen 😇
God bless you sis❤ Jesus is close to the brokenhearted. He is the one who Will never stop picking you up❤
Amen!
You are so beautiful, physically, even without teeth... that is not even counting your spirit. Thank you for sharing your brokenness and trials as it has helped me with my own trials and bitterness. God bless you.
Jesus cares about everything we go through and soon we will go home❤
Thank you so much for sharing. I really needed to hear this. I lost my ability to walk almost 6 yrs ago due to a botched surgery. I spend a lot of time feeling sorry for myself asking, why me God. Then I feel guilty and realize I'm still here for a reason.
That's a Bite. Hugs & Sorry.
Love, Light, and Blessings upon You. 🙏😇✨💫🌿🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺
You have suffered ENOUGH!! You have every right to be angry, sad, frustrated, broken. I pray that going forward you will heal more every day and faster than ever! 🙏🙏❤️🙏🙏
You are one of the strongest women I've ever seen. ❤️ You are beautiful, and you are an inspiration. ✨️ Sending you love and prayers 💜🙏🏻
Thank you!
Heather, I love you so much. Your willingness to be so open touches the broken parts of my spirit and speaks so loudly to me. I pray that your spirit is encouraged and refreshed and your healing is strong. I will ALWAYS be here for you if you need someone.
I so identify with you. I had a horrific accident when I was 31 years old. 54 bo es broken and 8 surgeries on my leg and on crutches for 5 years. And severe memory loss . All my prayers for you.
I have been praying for you Heather. I worked in a hospital and I know how demoralizing the entire process of recovery can be. I can guarantee you that , while I would have felt totally embarrassed too with all the functions that we so take for granted.....but your nursing team didn't think anything bad about it. It's all part of being human, and they deal with it every day and won't bat an eye over the things we all get so embarrassed about.
You are a beautiful woman... inside and out.... don't forget it. I hope you can get everything sorted out with the dental issues, but sincerely, you are so beautiful dear you shine! Im sorry you are having all these troubles, but you are getting through it, and are holding up like a Viking! God bless you, and please feel the love coming to you from me and SO many good folks on here. ❤ You are a light in this world
Amen!!!!!
We love you Heather. You are such a strong godly woman. I remember you said one time you were a warrior. Yes you are in the best way. Thank you for blessing us with your story. You continue to be in my prayers. 💕
❤ Amen 🙏 Healthier is a True shinning Bright Light for me and so many others. 🙏😇Amen
Heather, prayer warriors stick together! You are such a strong woman. I'm proud of you!
Heather, most of us have no idea what you’ve been through. We can empathize with your plight, we can love you in prayer, we can send you e-hugs 🤗 but none of us have been in your shoes. It is very notable for you to share this vulnerable side of you. Sharing with us about your breakdown and your struggles, as well as your walk with God, has brought me closer to God in my own faith. You are so inspiring! For that, I thank you. ❤ Your frustration is completely understandable and remember, God knew you would break down at that news. It was part of his plan for you. We may not know why now, but we will someday! ❤
For what it’s worth, your teeth, or lack of, is not noticeable in your videos. Anyone who didn’t know would just think that’s how you talk! Stay strong, sweet friend, you got this!!!!! And you have God’s army behind you!! ❤❤❤❤ love from south TX ❤
I am sitting here with tears choking my throat. I know you will come out of this being a strong woman. Don't pay attention. to the negative comments, they don't understand what it is to love God and to have that light in our hearts from loving him. Even when we have dark days. God is light and sunshine.
You are the most brave, beautiful woman i know. You are allowed to cry, scream or whatever. But remember you are here for a reason. You help me every day. As ive been through that with my last operation. And I am about to have major surgery again. I told myself that i left my dignity at the door and picked it up on the way out. Ive survived sepsis twice. But for some reason I feel even tho im wracked with pain i need to be here. As for your teeth i don't even notice. I just see a strong beautiful woman xxx
Love, Light, and Healing Blessings for a full recovery. 🙏😇✨💫🌱🌿🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺
Oh sweet Heather, you are so beautiful with or without teeth. YOU are such a blessing and thank you for being obedient to GOD'S calling on your life!!!!!!! YOU are so loved and respected!!!!!!!
Well said
Yes, you are! God bless you and your family.
So sorry to hear your rollercoaster of emotions. Both my sisters were in a vehicle accident and my middle sister got the worse of it. She’s hasn’t been herself and it’s almost three years. No settlement either, she says she’ll probably never see any of it. No amount of money will make things better for her, she’ll never be the same, it’s life altering in her situation. It’s so sad to seeing her go through all this.
I’m so sorry what your going through as well. It really is a long way to “recovery”.
Prayers and hugs to you and your family. 🙏💞
I had a stroke a year ago and everything you said is just exactly what I have felt and I told the Lord recently God if you don’t heal me just take me home I’m 80 years old, and the Lord kept assuring me it wasn’t my time that I had something I had to do I don’t know exactly what that is yet, but after hearing you today, I was so tired of being not myself of not being all together yet, but I’m I said God help me to walk that was my first prayer. I’m now walking with my Rollator. And today I was able to move my left foot in the way that I have not been able to move it since the stroke I had the stroke in February and I lay on my floor for 2 1/2 days before anybody found me my daughter lives right next-door but She she never come over to. You know she didn’t come over that day and when they kept calling me to try to see if I was gonna go to church cause I always went to church and they couldn’t get an answer over and over and over and all I could do is pray God have them come check on me and finally I heard my back door open because I had my front door locked, and my daughter walked through the door And she looked like oh my goodness she didn’t think I was alive and the look on her face was horrid but I’m sitting here crying trying to talk to you. I’m just so thankful for your your broadcast today. You thank you I followed you since way before your accident and I’m telling you, today was the best I’ve ever heard because you were so real with us and I just pray that God will continue to heal me and that I’ll have a testimony like yours someday thank you Heather for everything that I heard come out of your mouth today because I had some vein things going on to it. I had to depend on a daughter, after the hospital in the rehab place, I had to depend on depend on my daughter to take care of me like a baby. She had to change me and everything I mean it was just terrible. You talk about humbling that put you right underneath the ground but I thank God for you so be blessed and know that I am thinking about you and praying for you too.
I feel you honey. Ive not had teeth for almost 3 yrs now. Losing your teeth and waiting for the ability to replace them, it destroys you. Its destroyed me. I dont smile. I dont participate in pictures with my kids and family. I rarely talk. I avoid talking on the phone because i cant pronounce words correctly with no teeth for my tongue to touch as needed. I dont go out unless i absolutely have to. I hide. I can only eat certain foods. Its embarrassing, humiliating, its soul destroying. 😢 Unless youre going through it, its hard to understand.
Thankyou so much for your testimony. I have spinal surgery tomorrow and today you gave me strength and understanding to submit to trust the Father. :)
Thank you, again, Heather for your honesty and transparency. Your three-year journey has held more suffering than most of us will ever face in a lifetime. God can handle your "Why???" and your ugly crying. He will soothe your heart until you get to that place of surrender..."Ok God, I want what YOU want, more than what I want myself." He is getting the glory through your changed life and this wonderful gift of a marriage to Danny. I can only pray that I might be found as faithful should I be tested as you and will continue praying for your healing and spiritual protection.
You just preached a full sermon! I said “amen!” over and over as you were sharing. Thank you for sharing with such humility, honesty, and grace. You have suffered faithfully and done it in front of all of us. God’s glory shines through you so bright. As a fellow follower of Christ, I am so proud of you my sister! We may never meet this side of heaven, but I will look forward to meeting you one day!
I watch your videos always amazed at how much you have had to endure. If you wonder for a second if you don’t have a purpose or are touching lives dismiss that thought. Oh, how I felt today how fragile we all can be. I’ve been a Christian for 54 years. I’ve despised of life and tried to end mine years ago. God saved my life three times so far. From within my mother’s womb, attempting to take my own life and recently from cancer. I’m still here. There was so much I related to in this sharing today. Hitting walls when you feel that you are supposed to never give up. People looking at you for their strength while you are drowning in despair. Or being told to just, “Praise God!” by people who don’t even understand what emotional, physical, or mental pain really is.
And the first time you came on without your teeth it caught my breath. Your honesty today brought tears. No one understands how this one feature can devastate a person’s sense of worth. When I lost all but 6 teeth on the bottom of my mouth I tried desperately to tolerate clunky dentures. I couldn’t eat with them; my smile was twisted, and I felt foolish. So I abandoned them on a shelf and set on a path to live with the humiliation. Even when my son came for lunch I tried desperately to eat with them. Finally, I gave up knowing that he would love me more for not struggling to face him without my teeth. I’ve prayed to wake up with a whole new set of teeth that God restored in my sleep. If he can heal me of cancer he can restore my teeth. But so far, every day, my self-esteem, my casting myself on the Holy Spirit seems to be far more important than teeth.
I go to the book of Job when my heart can’t seem to beat another day. I forgive myself if others won’t because I can’t speak all the positive words they want to hear coming from me. I sit alone in my apartment, yet not alone, in the presence of God. So many scriptures come flooding in. Weeping may endure for the night, but Joy comes in the morning. This too shall pass. And the one I started my walk with, God will not leave or forsake you. I had to know that first. I had to know that no matter what my days looked like, God would never leave me.
I might never get teeth; supernaturally or artificially. But like you said, my heart keeps beating, my lungs fill with air and life will go on. It will get better. I give a quick backward glance to see that things did change; they did get better and today will one day be behind me. The greatest of all we can say is, one day this life will be over, and we will see the face of God! What we see dimly we will see in the Light.
One last thought your video offered. I am so sorry beyond words can say, that you have had to go through all that you have, but I venture to say, that when you share from the depths of your heart it’s these videos that probably touch more lives than any other subject you share. The world is full of people who hurt, need someone to be honest and not pretend to be alright when they are not, more than any time in history. Please never stop posting videos like this when that’s all you have to share. You have no idea right now how many people you’ve touched. One day God will say to you, “Enter in, good and faithful servant.” Bless you.
Matt has been with you every single day. His love for you has never wavered ❤
I discovered your channel when Jenny Appleford was passing away from cancer and I was touched by your compassion and prayers for her and her precious family. I pray that the Lord continues to give you healing and peace sweetheart that you so greatly deserve. Love ❤️ and blessings to you sweet sister in Christ.🙏
Oh sweet Heather. I know Matt is so proud of you for dealing with all of this. I have gained so much strength from you. You are a beautiful daughter of God who shares his love. There will be a day that all this will be behind you. You are a tool in his hands to bless yourself and others. As we each suffer we learn to reach out to others for support. I have gained so much from you. I was injured in a car crash and am almost to the end of my healing journey. Even though you don't know me personally you have helped me live through this trial. Please know you can survive this but having moments of weakness is how we gain strength to endure to the end of our trials. I promise one day these trials will be behind you and you will continue to bless others with your strength. You are loved!
Love, Light, and Blessings upon You. 🙏😇✨💫🌱🌿🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺
Wish I was close enough to give you a big long hug. 🤗 🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️
This was for me! Praise God! Thank you! Holding on to the faith right along with you sister! ❤️❤️
Heather, you are amazing. You deserved a "melt down" after everything you have been through. Love and prayers. 🙏🙏🙏
thank you! we all go through it..... just slightly different storyline.
@@TheKneadyHomesteaderyes sweet sister. What you said at around 17 minute mark about being in the present, instead of the future, planning, was very powerful to me. Thank you.
Edit: I claim that this was for me, sis. Greatly edifying to me today. I don't always watch every video but the Holy Spirit said, "this one", this morning. Thank you sister in Jesus Name.

Heather, your faith and spirit is always so inspiring to me. I think you are absolutely beautiful!!! Your spirit, your faith, your laughter, your strength, your kindness all accentuates that beauty. So many of us are here praying for and with you. We gather strength from you, anytime you need that in return it is absolutely yours!
No one can even grasp the details of every minute that your lived after coming out of your coma of having to live each moment in pain, heartache, despair, hopelessness......down to the task of taking each breath to live, of seeing your children suffer emotionally, physically, spiritually and having to grieve with them and for them while coping with your own horrific injuries and pain. We can only imagine. I am in awe of your ability to come as far as you have, in awe of the fact that you glorify God, that you have so much compassion for others, that you live each day more productive that many people who have not endured the trauma that you have. You were born for these moments. What a blessing you are to so many. Anyone looks better with teeth, but beauty is only skin deep. Your beauty is all over you without and within. My eyes are drawn to your beautiful, full of love eyes when you smile. I don't notice your teeth or lack thereof.
I completely understand on the bank account, after my sister in law lost her husband unexpectedly they froze her accounts because they had a camper loan. She couldn’t pay her bills, bury her spouse because those evil people wanted their pound of flesh first. She has never and would never not pay a debt, she was struggling so badly. Then 6 weeks later her mom died and she was the executor and of course the same back froze her accounts because she owed 3000$ on a credit card. We paid those utilities etc and the funeral expenses. The day we went to talk to the funeral home about mom’s funeral she had a check to pay off her husbands. It was awful.
Oh Heather, you are so beautiful, even without teeth. I know it’s been a long, painful journey and my heart goes out to you. Keeping you in my prayers.
Sending you hugs and lots of love, Heather. Jesus continue to bless you.
Mrs. Queen here ♥️ thank you for the encouragement! Praising God that He doesn't leave us or forsake us. His help with each step toward victory makes our heart sing and faith to increase. God is so amazing through you, you are an example of perseverance and rawness. I appreciate you!
Sweet friend praise god your not "broken" any more!! Its only normal for some one who has been through a journey such as yours..to "hit a few walls" in your continued healing. We are your prayer warriors and will be... just keep focusing on your positives your kidos, your new hubby, you look beautiful with no teeth....on and on of Gods Goodness Chasing after You ❤
Good morning beautiful lady ❤ Sending you lots of healing prayers 🙏🙏
Amen 🙏😇
God is everywhere, there is hope and light. Dark times will pass. Blessings.
Absolutely!
Oh Heather-the last mile of any marathon is the hardest! God meets us where we are at- you are as beautiful, actually more beautiful, than you have ever been because beauty comes from within. I did not know that you had remarried, but it feels my heart with joy that you have someone to hold you-comfort you. We can never compare our grief to someone else's because it is individual but no more or less than someone else's. I know that God hurts because you, as one of his children, is hurting. I will continue to hold you up in prayer and love. You are not alone. You are so loved
I just have to tell you how your courage to share your heart and testimony has touched my heart. My husband is currently completing week 4 in the ICU intubated after an acute illness. He has just started waking up and has so much healing still ahead. I keep thinking of everything he still can’t do and how much he’s going to have to go through. I needed to hear that God just needs me to be still and in the present. He gives us the grace we need for each day. Lifting you up in prayer tonight!
I’m so greatful you tell the truth about what happens when you physically can’t do things anymore, and ur struggles and how people fall away because they really weren’t there for you in the first place. Praise the Lord He brings into our lives who and what we need. I’m praying and believing ur blessings are very close. What God has for you, nobody can snatch from his hands!🙌🏽 You’re a daughter of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! 👑💜May He bless you exceedingly and abundantly more than you can imagine or hope for. Thank you Heather, I’m very grateful for you. Fighting the good fight with you!🙏🏼🙌🏽✝️🛡️🗡️💜🙏🏼💜🕊️💜
Oh Heather, I see you and hear you and I am so glad you shared such a personal time with us. I am one of those who desperately needed to hear you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Praying for you. Such a beautiful soul. Thank you❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for your message. You spoke to my heart. God bless you. You are beautiful Heather.
You are beautiful inside and out. He will complete what He has begun in you. Keep walking daddy by day.
I feel for you, I lost most of my teeth and am left with a bridge and partial, everyday I have pain or discomfort it is very difficult and I pray you get good dentures.
Love, Light, and Healing Blessings. 🙏😇✨💫🌱🌿🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺

With or without teeth, you are beautiful. yes this was edifying, more than you know. God speed 🙏
thank you Denise!!!! xoxoxo
Tender mercies and God's grace upon you. 🙏💖🙏
I love listening to you and hearing when you giggle. With that said, hearing when you need to surrender to all the pressure, pain, and heartache you’ve endured (and are enduring), we’re here. Your honesty is helping others, creating more compassion, and even bringing joy. Thank you, Heather. Praying for continued healing for you and your family daily.
Well forgive me for not congratulations you sooner but I missed that you remarried. I'm truly sorry I missed that.
CONGRATULATIONS to you both and I wish you many many Blessings together❤
awww thank you. No worries. Everyone in our lives knew, but I didn't overshare it on social media. The online space is wild. xoxoxo
@@TheKneadyHomesteader oh I do agree that the online world isn't trustworthy and that's sad. But it's reality in this day and time.
I'm so happy for you both and wish you the best❣️❣️
Love you Heather! You are so beautiful and kind. Your story breaks my heart and encourages me all at once. God must have big plans for you!!
There is beauty in brokenness. You are a beautiful soul, with a beautiful purpose. I’ve said my prayers for you this morning. You are going to push through this Heather!
I had no idea you got remarried until you told me about your wedding set. Danny sounds like a blessing! I’m sending you virtual hugs and if I could take the pain from you I would. You are a blessing in my life, you cheer me up when I am down, you teach me things I had no idea I needed to know how to do and your kind heart makes me believe that there are people out there that are good and loving ❤
I am thankful God sent Heather a partner, someone to stand beside her. I am glad she was open to love again. Always good when it is a childhood friend, BC it may not have happened otherwise. Amen!
My prayers go out to you. I have no idea of even what you had to go through. I was in rehab for my hips and that I know how you feel. I had to surrender my pride and wear diapers until I could walk. I will be praying. For you while I sit here in my doctors office. Your story of what you went through and to be up and canning. God is so good!z
Praying for your complete healing and restoration!
All my prayers for you this afternoon. Oh my dear sweet one. I have imagined all you and your children have been through since the beginning of your nightmare and mourn for your suffering. I can NOT forgive that man for how he shattered your innocent lives. Your teeth WILL be healed soon and you will have sunshine in a beautiful toothy smile and blessed heart one day again. You're truly beyond a gorgeous woman - with or without teeth.
awwww thanks Mary!!!! I appreciate that so much!
You touched my heart, no way I can express how similar we are. The teeth, the memory and problem with personality differences, being broken and rebuilt, all I can say is God Bless you Beautiful Lady!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Heather, you are the strongest woman I have known to date! You and your family have endured Soooo much, and God has been with you the entire 3 years since that horrendous Valentine's Day crash 💔
God continues to be with you and your family, and His arms are around you constantly.
Ugly cry as much as you need because tears are cleansing!
Stay strong, Heather, you are in our thoughts and prayers ALWAYS 🙏
I L❤VE Y❤U 😊
You are inspiring so many people. You have suffered so much, but you use it as a powerful testimony. He has great plans for you.
Never a day goes by that I don't think of you. You are a inspiration to me. Love to you and your family.
She is an inspiration to me too. I found her because of "the tragedy". I was one who played her playlists and make the recipes and pray.
Now my teeth are disintegrating. I guess it's because of certain medications I have had to take for mental health on and off through the years. Soon I will be without teeth. Totally an inspiration to me. I can't even afford the first part and the temporary dentures, so I pray.
God bless you.
thank you Sandra!!!!! So much love to you and yours too! xoxo
Good Morning sweet lady, so many prayers sent out for healing and strength
Teeth or no teeth, you are beautiful! I have followed you for 7 years and have always found you to be a humble, beautiful women. God is going to return you to a full life and a fully healed body. You are a brave, strong, tough women and I have great admiration for you. Bless you , dear girl!
It was for me. I needed every word. I pray for your healing. 🤍🕊
GOOD because I wanna delete this video so badly! hahaha I am trying to be obedient and keep it up! hahahaha
@@TheKneadyHomesteader🤍
@@TheKneadyHomesteader I pray you leave it up. It sure helped my heart.
Your message was for me, too. No one has ever touched me like you have done through this video. I am in the depths of despair from events that have happened to me. They are different from what you have endured, but they are painful nevertheless. Seeing your strength and hope in the midst of your suffering, I think I can make it, too. Thank you for sharing what you are going through. You are helping other people. Bless you. And you are beautiful, even without your teeth. 🩷🌷🌸
Heather, you are a blessing to me. Never stop doing what you are doing. You are beautiful regardless. Praying for you and keep standing on God’s promises. He will see us through. 🙌❤️🙏🏻
God Bless you SWEET, BEAUTIFUL lady. 🙏🙏🙏❤ from Canada
Thank you Heather for shaing. It's exactly what God wanted me to hear. Yes, we will be okay. God bless you.
I needed to hear this right now. I was having my own trying time. I needed to be reminded that God is always with me.
That's good that you've reached this breaking point! Hear me out...I KNOW your faith has been phenomenal. Now that you've told Him you've had enough, HE will now show you ALL His goodness and mercy. EVERYTHING will work out for good. You watch, hang on beautiful. It's good to let go. Love and prayers for you ❤🌹🙏
The saints are so beautiful as they learn and lean on our Father God !! You are beautiful lady !!! Praise the Lord !!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 so sorry what you are going through . We never know what the other person is going through.😢 I loss my son in iraq mother day,then in 2021 I got hurt at work a brain injury. Buy 6 months they let me go. Lost job insurance ,pay check.then 2022 I lost my husband. 💔no income.this month my sons birthday was the 11th husband passed 9th.I’m having a hard time.i couldn’t afford medical help without insurance. Hard to deal with finding the words ect I don’t let my kids see how much I suffer… just a hard month. So I see you and understand a little.
I wish I could hug you. I am so very sorry..... praying healing prayers over you, sweet mama!
Thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 for you too
Can you get workmen’s compensation through your work? Any government programs to help you? I’m so sorry for all your losses. They do seem to hit us all at once. You still have your beautiful son, so you do have a purpose in life. Focus on him in helping to make his life a happy and fulfilling one. If Heather can do this, so can all of us. Wishing you peace, warmth, light, and love in your journey.☀️🌷🌻❤️
I appreciate this message so much. I have been so close to giving up myself. A marriage to a man who doesn’t love me or our grown children, because he’s incapable of love has been devastating. After over 30 years of marriage, I have felt the Lord telling me that He is releasing me from the marriage and the pain but I have to wait until He gives me the green light to go.
I have told Him that I’m tired, I’m exhausted, I’m broken down, and I need for something to change. His response has been to just wait. So, I am waiting.
Oh sweet Heather, your rebuilding is purposeful and so needed by my broken heart. I am at a season of a painful shoulder injury and learning to use the left side of my brain. Thank you for the encouragement today. You are so beautiful dear. Keep looking up. Looking forward to your garden. 🕊✝️🕊🙏
praying for complete healing and restoration for you..... I am so glad this hit your heart today in some way.
My dear, beautiful Heather, I'm so grateful to you for sharing your brokenness with us. We are all broken in our own ways, some more than others. I can only imagine the suffering you have endured these last three years, and my heart aches over all that you've been through. But! My heart also sings for the blessings you've received along the way. It's strange to feel so connected to someone I've never met, but you've shared so much of yourself through this journey that watching your videos is like visiting with a wonderful friend. Thank you for sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly cry with us. We see your strength and courage and it inspires us, but it's comforting to know that even you have moments of weakness, or even the occasional utter collapse, just like the rest of us who are struggling.
Insurance companies are awful. I've been dealing with them since 2010, so I have a good understanding of just how difficult it is to deal with them. In fact, just now, while in the middle of typing this comment, I got a call from my attorney because one of the insurance companies wants to settle so they can close the medical part of my case. 🙄 (Not gonna happen because it's my SPINE!) I've lost my train of thought, so I'll just close this by saying thank you for allowing yourself to be vulnerable and raw and real. I pray for your continued healing, and that you're able to enjoy all the salad you can eat this summer! 🙏❤
thank you so very much!
TY Heather, for letting the LORD use you! TY for not stopping these videos! You help and encourage us so much!!!
Heather you are such a beautiful person! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your humbleness, honesty. God is making you an even more beautiful person then you were before! I love you and am learning to love and trust the Lord in all I do as you are drawing closer to God. Thank you so much!
I am truly inspired and needed to hear this. I follow you and yes pray for you. You being open and vulnerable is helping and healing for others.
The part where you said "I'm ready for the outside to match the inside" ... I felt that to my core.
God is using you- yesss even the broken pieces.
It is hard and messy yet beautiful all at the same time. God bless🙌🫶
You have a beautiful soul, and that is all that matters ❤ one day you will look back and say wow!!!
I already do, when I think about how far in healing I have come.... I just need to keep my eyes on Jesus!
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. DON'T EVER FORGET IT. Does not matter with or without teeth. You are BEAUTIFUL HEATHER. You keep smiling for God💗
Heather, what you shared ministered to me so much. Thank you for sharing your heart and I will pray for you 💜
Praying for a quick resolution! God is able! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sweet sister, I have watched you walk through this deep valley and the amazing growth and inspiration God has brought us all to with you. May every step you take be blessed from here to eternity. 🙏
Thank you so much
I am suffering and I have written your beautiful words in my journal so I can read them every day. The resurrection power of our Lord Jesus Christ is available and obtainable for each of us. I can relate to all you have said. Blessings.x
Hell yeah you should claim the attention!!! Your story makes others have hope. So many of us live with pain & listening to God speak through you & testifying your struggle..."tantrum"...U give us hope by claiming God will help us rise!!!AMEN!!!! I NEEDED THIS TODAY!!! THANK U!!!!😘
