May the Lord, our Heavenly Father, bless you abundantly for being a blessing and sowing a seed❤️
Whenever you decide to be yourself you become lonely. However, God is very much relational, communal, and desire the same for us to belong to the community of faith in fellowship. Thank you so much for this faith talk episode.
Amen!! 🤍
I grew up in a fatherless home too I see God as my father 😊
Amen 🥹🤍 he’s our dad!!
I dont think Its wise to get vulnerable around People. My experience has been that they use it against You. The only one You can fully trust is GOD!🙏💛
It’s so true that it’s important to be on guard. Opening up to the wrong people will lead to hurt. But the right people that love you would never use vulnerabilities against you. The Lord wants us to experience that intimacy in friendships. Otherwise there will always be a wall emotionally. I pray for discernment over us and godly community around us so we can experience relationships how God always intended them 🤍🥰
Nothing Beats PRAYER BUT PRAYERS BEATS EVERYTHING ❤💯💯💯💯
Amennnn 🗣️🗣️
It is CRAZY how spot on this is. I have been way too comfortable by myself. I used to take so much pride in it, but girl I can't do it anymore. This isolation seems so long and self induced. At 29, I just thirrrst for those female friendships - not even a partner right now. Just everyday friends. I feel like I missed my mark because everyone around me has known eachother for years or have a lot in common and I'm just kind of in the in between.
I know the feeling sis!! But I can testify that the Lord restores and will bring incredible girlfriends on your path when you ask him and wait expectantly 🥹. There are so many in the same position as you, so there are absolutely girls who are praying to have you in their lives right now! I pray that in Jesus mighty name you will start to meet women with whom you can do life. Godly community that will bring you closer to Jesus! Have a look at Christian events etc in your area sis, to meet them you will have to head out the door 🚪🤭
AMEN AMEN AMEN !!! Also, Changing your direction brings this Season & Both of these msgs are Full Blown Words' . Great Advice Chícas ❤️
Wow thank you for this! 🙏🏾 I share a similar story to you being bullied and not being able to speak in front of people. Today, my pastor asked me to pray in front the entire church as a youth representative and I was just thinking about how much God has done in me to be able to do that 🫶🏾
Aww thx for sharing your testimony, nice, See God is the God of the impossible. Speaking in front of many people was once something u really were afraid to do but now God changed you and now u are no longer afraid ❤❤✨✨
Wauw sis that’s incredible 🥹🤍 we praise the Lord for it!! To see that progress is so beautiful and in Jesus name the work is not finished yet :). May our Heavenly Father keep working through you as you serve him as a youth representative!
This word was for me. Being alone to a fault is something I need freedom from. I see the beauty in friendship. Thank you for this Deborah. Grateful the Holy Spirit will give a word at the right moment.
We’re in this together and it’s a journey to find that balance! 🤍 May the Lord help us let people in to establish kingdom friendships for his sake!
Hello Deborah I've been watching your videos for quite a while now I'm 12 years old and i love Jesus and worship him i am so blessed and thankful that the holy spirit has brought me to your channel because it's been helping me learn more about God. I pray that God will continue to bless you and be with you through your journey i'm so thankful for this video i really needed it ilysm god bless you❤
I struggle a lot with how I see God - more like a judge than a Father. I tend to isolate myself because of it, the constant feeling that I'm not enough, like if God held my sins against me when I know he does not. Thanks for this episode, it helps to find motivation to move forward. 🌿❤
Deborah, you truly are gifted, how did you know exactly what I was going through? Wheres the secret camera? 😂
🤣 it’s the Holy Spirit sis!! 2 Kings 6:12 🤭
Thank you, Deborah, God has worked through you to reach so many people and I am one. My relationship with our Father has grown since I have been watching your videos. I have put him first and I have experienced a peace that I never had before. My goal this year is to find a church and allow God to grow my fellowship. Today, I am asking for prayers of strength from our family on this channel. God has opened a door for me and tomorrow I have an interview for a new job. I pray that I will walk in the peace that Jesus gave me when I enter the building. Again, thank you for today's message and may God continue to grow our community. Amen in Jesus's Name.
YOUR CONNECTIONS DETERMINES YOUR DIRECTION‼️
I would have never guessed you were an introvert like meee!!! I had the similar experience growing up and now just feel unworthy of friendship. I will take your advice and PRAY PRAY PRAY about it. Thanks Deborah for sharing your journey 🙏🙏🙏🫶🫶🫶
Prayer always works sis 😊 Be expectant and trust God with the timing on it :) I pray healing out over you and incredible godly friendships in Jesus mighty name!!
@@deborahbx_ amen 🙌
Amen❤ I been meditating Matthew 6:33 this week because I stay busy doing a brunch of nothing. My pray is to our father to help us all in these areas and not lean on our own outstanding but to seek the kingdom first and his righteous. Thank you sis for sharing ❤
Side note, THIS LOOK 😍! So beautiful within and out sis!
Ohhh thank you so much 🥹🥰
I've been isolating myself a lot recently. Thank you so much for this word ❤
You’re not alone 🫂
I'm 17 years old, and I highly resonate with everything you mentioned, especially the poor relationship you have with your mother. Today was the first time we were able to speak about things, and it ended in tears. I hope we get to officially resolve things before either of us passes. God calls for unity - that's what I want for us. And I hope you and your mother experience that too, Deborah. God bless ❤
Amen 🤍 I’m so sorry to hear this sis, I know how tough it is. For now keep praying for your moms heart and for yours! The Lord our God redeems and restores when we let him. So I pray for restoration between you and your mom in Jesus mighty name 🤍 please know that you’re not alone. We’re in this together 🫂
Deborah Happy Sunday! It’s always such a blessing to see you :) God has been so faithful in the beginning of this month, this whole week i’ve PROCLAMING biblical affirmations upon myself and i have just been full of so much Joy 😊. EVEN in the low moments he’s STILL so faithful. Our God is INCREDIBLE GOD!
Happy Sunday Daisy 🥰 Wauw, that’s so incredible to hear!! Thank you for sharing! Keep the biblical affirmations going to see yourself more and more like the woman our heavenly dad created you to be. You’re his precious daughter!! You’re royalty sis 🥹💪🏽 it’s such a blessing to have you here as always :)
Thank you so much for this, the Holy Spirit is always on point 🤍 I’m good at being alone to a fault and it has been concerning me, I been hurt by people and would rather not let them in . We as people definitely need a community 🙏🏽
I can relate so much sis! Let’s pray for discernment and for the right people around us. The right people will allow safe godly community 🤍🫂
Deborahhhh why you calling me out regarding my introversion 😩 your Faith Talks are always on point 🔥💚
We’re in this together sis!! 🫂🤍
The thing about me is i want friends but i isolate, cuz i think that it s way better like that i get to focus on God and becoming the best version of myself in Christ
It’s true that alone time with the Lord allows intimacy on another level! Jesus had many moments where he withdrew. But equally, he had many moments where he was surrounded by friends and community. How else will people see Christ in you? You’ve been called to be the light of the world, you cannot shine if you stay hidden. Matthew 5:14-16 🤍 I pray for godly community around you in Jesus name! Iron sharpens Iron :)
A word this Sunday🙏 ! Praise the Lord🙌 Wishing everyone a Beautiful, Fulfilling week, be blessed. 💞💕
This really came at the right time. I’ve been knowingly isolating myself for a good while now, for the same reasons you described, and every time I acknowledge it I come up with excuses why. I’ve been hoping (not praying nearly enough) that God will get me through it. I think this is the push I need to really bring it to God :)
I need this because I’m so happy and comfortable being alone, I need to get out more but I don’t want too lol
I can absolutely relate 🤭 but there is so much that God has for us beyond this!
Thank you for your balanced channel. I was just thinking about this yesterday. There’s so many channels that focus on one extreme - being isolated all the time! Seasonally, sure!
I cannot even put into words how timely this word was for me, may God bless you richly Deborah thank you for being such a faithful servant,❤
Thank you for your candor. I went through the same thing with my mother (who was rejected as a child & wife). Me & my siblings were abandoned often by our father. The bullying was more so in my household, so you learn not to show emotion or let people in. I thank the Lord for delivering me from that negative environment & placed me in another state with loving people who affirmed me. I've come a long way, thanks be to God who knows, sees, & care about our well-being 😊
Needed this reminder. Something I’ve been struggling with but God will prevail!
Sis! I have been here from your very first video and I'm so proud of your journey of growth! 🪴🌱🌷
You are a walking, talking, & LIVING testimony! 🎉
I pray that all who watch your videos see you and KNOW that JESUS is ALIVE and resides in all who open the door and let him in! 🙏🏽🩷
May God bless you! You are one of the people who encouraged her to continue
Ohhh sis!! Thank you so so much for being here still 🥹🤍 I cannot explain how much that means to me! We’ve truly been on this journey together and I pray that the Lord will continue to bless and encourage you as you walk with him. You’re so loved by our heavenly dad. Thank you, it is such a blessing and honour to have you here 🥰❤️
@@SachaArtdyfaith aww, thank you ☺️ we have to lift one another up as a family in Christ. God bless you too sis 🩷
@@deborahbx_ Thank you sis! 🥰It's a pleasure to be here. May every chapter ahead be more and more fruitful 🙏🏽
Sister in Christ, has the Lord been telling you my life story 😅 really needed to hear this today
Amen I was actually talking to God about self protecting myself to avoid rejection and being hurt from others🦋
A community and communication is meant to be in person not online it’s not satisfying or enough nor is in real, Real life shows how it truly is and it’s real unlike online will be fake
An online community is such a blessing from the Lord! To be able to connect that way with brothers and sisters in Christ from all over the world 🥹🙏🏽 it’s not right to say that online community is fake as connections are absolutely made through it. But you are right that in person community cannot be replaced
I have been struggling with the feeling of being lonely literally I broke down so bad but I’m glad you’re speaking on this because sometimes I feel lonely like the people that I want in my life doesn’t exist or I won’t ever meet them
Thank you Deborah for being brave enough to share your testimony with God. With the Holy Spirit speaking through you, I am becoming more aware that our God is a holy and an ever loving God whom we can approach about anything that is good, pleases Him, and brings Him glory. May God continue blessing all of us. I had mental illness which delayed me from schooling, then I moved to a new college and now I’m even happier with the curriculum. I pray that God will help me with crochet, open up more opportunities for content creation (even though I have severe social anxiety disorder and selective mutism) freelance work I can offer up to God, and that I will rebuke the spirit of comparison of the self to other people, because all people are loved by God.
This is my issue. I isolate because I feel my issues are too big to handle an no one needs to hear about all my mess an no one is equipped to help or even be able to listen. It just so happens that my life is constant chaos and lack and withdrawing is my go to. It's rough for sure but now I'm in a place to were I have no one to turn to except God
Ambivert here and I enjoy my solitude. I wouldn’t even call it lonely. I do remember telling God that I enjoy a little too much 🤣 but I enjoy my own comfort and quietness. Sometimes, I get tired from socializing.
Like you mentioned, I also withdraw myself from people because I think it’s weird people like attach themselves to me. I’m not a huge fan of attachment and I also end friendships before they can even start 😅. Yeah it’s a habit. I also been wondering why I’ve been wanting best of best friends but refuse to do anything. It’s starting to make sense 💀. I do have my college friends. Hopefully, I don’t end up like my mom…friendless and stubborn 😅. Okay I’m done
Thank you for making this video! I have to say this is something that I tend to struggle with. Even though I don’t isolate myself from God anymore. I still need to stop isolating myself from other people especially at Church.😅 Thanks for the video
I embrace being alone. Also I find it hard to get along with people for reason not known to me. So I prefer my own safe circle and I just avoid ppl all together and I pray for the lords grace and for the lord to put good people in my path
Something that has helped me with that is asking God to help me see people the way He does. I started to find myself loving people even when we hardly has things in common…I’d just see something different beneath the surface. Sometimes God gave me specific things to pray over for them. ❤
@@JustSheik ♥️
We're the same 😅
You’re not alone in feeling this way sis 🤍 Like @justsheik said prayer is so key! The Lord will help us when we ask him. The right people will add so much to your life and your journey with Jesus! Iron sharpens iron - Proverbs 27:17. Even Jesus had friends and community around him for that fellowship. I pray for beautiful women of Christ around you in Jesus mighty name. Be expectant, in the Lord’s perfect timing he will make it happen 🫂
@@deborahbx_ amen 🙏🏽 thanks sis
I too am a victim of isolation but I'm gradually getting out of that phase😊
I feel like God spoke to me through you. Thank you ❤
Deb, the lord really speaks to me through you thank you! I live in Italy and I left my job for health reasons last year. And then a few months after I left my job I moved to a new city. Then I came to know Jesus. It’s almost been 1 year and I still don’t have a job. But I will continue to trust in the lord that in his perfect timing he will bless me with a job. I truly relate about the topic of being too comfortable by own company, like I really enjoy my own company. As I also suffered from getting bullied. But as much as I enjoy love being by myself, I also love meeting new people and being around people. But at the same time it’s hard, the church that I go to here in my city is nice but I barely see people my age go to my church only older people, I tried to talk to the priest and asked if there’s a community where I can join and he told me that they only have a community of younger people, teenagers. I am 29 btw, And so I really don’t don’t know what to do. I wanna have new friend a but it is so hard.
I’ve always been emotionally unavailable because I too felt that people didn’t really care. I’m now learning that some people do care, but that I should be aware of who I open up to, too.
Good talk, perspectives, reflections. God must always be first, the strong foundation. Real talk. Enjoying your vlog.😇💗🎉🙏🏾
Wow i have a similar habit of isolating myself, because i feel like everytime i really try with friends they betray me.
So i just feel like people are not dependable and i don’t feel pain when i am not with them, but i do feel loneliness sometimes.
I feel much better that i am not alone in this.❤❤❤🥰
Thank you this makes me feel less alone.🙏🏽
This has resonated with me so badddd....ITS LIKE YOU DESCRIBING ME AND WE HAVE NEVER MET😢😢😢😢😢.I tend to isolate myself alot and I usually enjoy my own company but growing more in the Lord I no longer desire being alone and thus loneliness had become evident and burdensome
You’re not alone sis!! I’m praying godly community out over your life who will walk you closer to Jesus. Iron sharpens iron - proverbs 27:17 🤍
@@deborahbx_ .. Amen
Deborah, thank you for sharing this, as I believe I was meant to hear it. I resonate with everything you've shared. I struggle with trusting people and opening up because I've honestly never had anyone who I've trusted aside from Jesus Christ. It's a constant battle every day... Like, it feels like I'm fighting for my life and my happiness. It's so difficult but I don't want to give up. I believe God has a beautiful life for me and I know perseverance is apart of the race. I just have to hold on until the finish line. However, it's rough doing it alone. I wish I had a strong support system but, right now, it's just me and Jesus (and my cat).
This is so good. When I would be alone I wouldn’t even go to God just the motions of life thinking I’m good. That spoke to me, and a bunch of other things such as friendships and not placing them on that expectation they can never fill. Only Jesus. Love this! Love what you’re doing. 🧡🧡🕊️🙏🏽
Deborah, I believe that we are not isolating ourselves, it's GOD doing it for HIS purposes. I'm glad because there are certain people that we don't need to interact with. Blessings to you and your family. Be Encouraged no matter how many subscribers you have.
There are absolutely seasons of isolation where the Lord prepares and prunes us for what’s to come! But our whole life isn’t meant to be like that. Jesus said we are the light of the world, how can we shine if we stay hidden? Matthew 5:14-16 💡Jesus is always the example we should follow. He spent time with the father withdrawn from the crowds, but he also had friends around him with whom he shared fellowship 😊
Amen Deborah; I need healing. Thank you for your ministry. God bless you.
My situation isolates me cause i dont feel healthy enough to do what i really want to do. So i need to fast and pray so i can be healthy. And if i need to go out in pain idk maybe i dont want to but idk i just need to fast . Addressing the physical problem will help. Its hard fasting alone or just changingto a healthylifestyle. I need to do it with the Lord. 😢
omg, this is exactly what im going through right now, actually, since i was a kid. thank you deborah, thank you so much. i needed it a lot
I know the feeling sis! You’re not alone 🤍🫂 I’m praying for godly community over all of us in Jesus mighty name. That we will follow Jesus’s example in this. He spent much time alone with the father, but also surrounded himself with friends and community to shine his light! ✨
You made me cry Deborah ❤
Thank you for making this channel so authentic🎉
You don't have to please everyone, but you make a huge difference in the lives of people who ressemble you😊
Thank you for sharing ❤️ blessings of Abraham is now belongs to the saints 😃pray always 💡📖 if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Needed to hear this❤

Amen! It’s so a honor to be able to share God with others and seeing him blow your own personal channel out of the water is amazing!!
Word in season... thank you Deborah I really needed that
Thank you, this is very good
Deborah, I could relate to this so much! thank you so much for your consistency and your obedience
I’m on this journey too, and I always pray that my relationships fall into place and I’m surrounded by the right people. I love the book of genesis, it literally warms my heart to see how much detail, thought and love was put into creation. Happy Sunday!🙏
Thank you so much for these words, exactly what I needed to hear❤️
Blessings to you sis. Those things you talked about couldn't be more true with some being as real as can be in my own life as well. But thank God for God always....!
Good word
The Lord is always speaking through you❤❤ I am on summwr vacation and I have been enjoying my loneliness a bit too much 😅
Just watched this on my work break and I really needed it!
Happy for you sis!🤍 🥹 God always comes through!! and this was right on time!! Thank
You sis!
Thank you so much for this video Deborah!! I really needed to hear this, I can so relate with everything you said! Thanks again for this video, it really blessed me!
Thank you
Thank you for this message really. I've been distancing myself from everything without even realizing it was an issue until recently. Anyways I definitely needed to hear this 🙏🏽 and may God keep blessing and providing for you ❤❤
Thank you Deborah ❤- doing things alone and pushing people away can’t work - I know better than that so praying for grace to do better
Blessings Wonderful WOG @ Deborah
Thank you for sharing this, it is something I struggle with and this video I randomly click on truly helped me open my eyes to the bigger picture. God bless you!
Deborah, thank you for your faith talk episodes! Your videos being so much clarity into my life. I thank The Lord for using you as a vessel to speak and put into perspective ALL He wants for us 🙌💗
Love you so much ❤
Love you too sis 🥹🫂
Oh and you look so pretty 😍😍love your make-up and everything!😁
Faith talks yaaaay!🎉😂❤😊
This is such a confirmation for me. A little bit of context I had did online school for 2 years due to family issues then I went to school in person but got bullied so now I'm back online and it's just crazy how I was just telling the Lord about this- I feel like I'm living in the outskirts and being home all the time sure I go to church but I still feel so lonely and it's mentally damaging. I'm such an over-thinker and insecure definitely have developed social anxiety and struggle with social skills due to really barely interacting with people in person and I feel like nobody grasps that- Sorry for the random vent 💀. But this meant a-lot to me
So I just wanna say Thank you God for showing me Deborah's channel. Because I can relate a-lot with what you have said so thank you! You are surely favored God bless!! Jesus loves you soo much thank you for saying what the Holy spirit is saying it really does reach people and inspires 💖💖💖
Girl. I just realized yesterday what a problem this is for me. I'm struck. lol I have just been on auto-pilot, seeing myself as a "fixer" and self-reliant and living like that is what God expects from me. I'm praying for child-like faith. I will always enjoy taking care of people and helping but I have to learn how to do that from a place of utter and complete dependence on my Father.
For real 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I have found a huge problem in the church in regards to this. I know I am someone who is overly independent and then when I make myself try to let others in or come to others, they tell me basically to just go lean on God and deal with it myself, or to be more independent what the hell people do not seem to understand or want you to come to them at all and there’s this ugly narrative in the church that seems to think that everyone is overly dependent on one another telling us that if we try to depend on one another, we’re doing something wrong so I decided just quit going to church. Church is toxic and so many ways stop doing this to people at church telling people they’re doing something wrong just because you don’t want to deal with it
Have you ever thought about doing like a Weekly Bible Study.. You would be a great teacher 😊 God Bless you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Blessings to you dear sister in Christ how keeping up with everyday life 🙏🏿🙇🏾🙏🏾
Hi Deborah. Just wanted to mention that your videos are a blessing to me and that I love you so much. Please may you pray for my family, we need healing and restoration of relationships with each other.
God bless you
New subbie :) I loveeeee your channel! 💜
Welcome to the fam sis!! 🥹🤍 it’s so good to have you here!!
How do you actually prepare your faith talks? Do you write down everything you want to say before talking?
I also tend to isolate myself a lot. I didn't even feel like going to church today and I ended up not going 😢.
Dit was precies wat ik moest horen vandaag! ❤
🤍🤍
Thank you for your sharings. It really heals and helps. Currently facing the problem of dealing things alone. And not know how to communicate well with people around me. Sometimes, it is just very hard to admit that you actually need help from friends or other people. May I know how you accept and relieve from all of the pasts that u had been through?
