I'm 17; after having just gotten out of an unequally yolked relationship recently, I decided I wanted more Godly influence in my life, from my RUclips recommendations to my Snapchat friends, and managed to find this beautiful channel!!! thank you for all of your hard work as the normalization of celibacy and Christian courtship by you has really gotten me to hold my head up when desiring to do things in God's way!!
First year of marriage is definitely one of the hardest and we had people asking us when we’d have kids only days after the wedding so we made them wait 4 years before our first child was born. Now, 4 kids later, those same people were asking when we were gonna STOP having kids. 😂
I’m happy to see a marriage video! I haven’t been able to relate to the single videos...haven’t been single in 11 years. 😂 I married my middle school sweetheart.
Thank you so much for talking about this! I wish more people did. I always here about the struggles in unhealthy marriages are, but never what the causes of friction are in healthy marriages. As someone who’s never been married, that makes it harder in a relationship to recognize what times of problems within it are okay and normal and what is not.
Oh and BtW I was engaged and was constantly afraid that my fiance was going to die. I’m sorry that you are dealing with that, but glad I wasn’t the only one! I guess I’m not crazy after all 😂
Something I heard recently was that, when unbelievers get married, they try to make the "honeymoon stage" last as long as possible, because after that you know each other's issues and it's all downhill from there. But for Christians, we go into marriage knowing that we're sinners and will work through things together, even if it's hard at first, and it only gets better from there!
This video was such a blessing, thank you for your openness on this topic! I’ve been married about a month and a half and a lot of the struggles you shared are ones that we are facing as well, especially the intimacy and schedules not matching. Thank you for making me not feel alone ❤️
"Your fears don't go away once you are married". When I got engaged, I thought that suddenly everything was going to be perfect, so thank you for sharing some real marriage struggles, and for being so authentic! Love you, Stas!
Hey Sister! I was also on anti-depressant for a while, but I learned that young girls typically have hormone imbalance which causes depression and mood swings. I did a test, and turns out I had really low progestrons. I have been applying progestron cream ever since and it works like a magic! As a result I stopped my anti-depressant, got my sex drive back, got my insomia fixed, and kicked away mood swings and depressions. If you haven't done a hormone test I strongly recommend you to do so! love you!
Thanks for being raw about your struggles in marriage. I love that you are open about how marriage isn’t perfect but still it is so worth it! Love you so much girl!🥰💕
"When are you having kids" is such an insensitive question. Not everyone is called to have children and not everyone is able to. I personally believe that every baby is a miracle from God and I'm extremely Pro-Life, so to me babies are such an exciting adventure. However, reproductive issues that cause infertility, miscarriages, and a slew of other hardships can contribute to the delay in child bearing. It is between you, your husband, and God on when you would like to try to start having children. It's no one else's business. Period!
Here I am commenting again...I can totally relate to the schedule thing! My husband works 8:30-5 and I work 4:30-10 am. So I go to bed at 9ish and sacrifice a few hours of sleep to spend more time with my husband. It sucks not being able to sleep the whole night together.
I’m so glad I came across your channel tonight I can relate to you I do relate to you I also struggle with depression/anxiety and I’m trying to build a relationship back with God I need to work on reading the word more studying it and praying a lot more I’m not new to this I’m coming back to God I love ur videos I have watched so far tonight I came across you through searching up what is new age and came across your videos of law of attraction glad that I did I’m not interested anymore in it or wanting to know more about it I thought also that it had to be harmless now I know for sure it is although in the back of my head I also thought something was funny about it
This will be perfect! Me and my husband are on different schedules and our marriage is so important to us that we decided to make the sacrifice and I am currently staying home so we can spend time together.
Hey beautiful sister in Christ for the spirit of fear and anxiety, I would definitely recommend deliverance to break free from that. Hope this advice reach to you because that worked for me 💕
I learned a really helpful prayer from Becket Cook/Chynna Phillips - "Lord Jesus, you are Lord over my life and over every circumstance. Every unclean spirit must go in Jesus name." Satan can use fear to torment so thank the Lord Jesus that He came to destroy the works of the devil. (John 10:10) :)
Hi Nastasia, I want to encourage you with the following bible verses 🕊 📖 ❤: "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." ~2 Timothy 1:7 "This is my command-be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” ~Joshua 1:9
@@NastasiaGrace Thanks so much! Lol I didn't see this for a while because I don't get notifications on my phone, just my computer haha :) That's awesome! I'm thinking of doing the same one day when I'm married... one day haha
if you really believe that Jesus hates you, why would you pray? is it just to get what you think you want? we should be approaching the throne of God with humility and admiration, not like a genie in a bottle.
Hey. Jesus Doesn't hate you . He loves you and therefore he died for you to save you from your sins. Seek first the kingdom of God. Go to God humbly and seek his face. Read his word ( the Bible ). What would make you think Jesus hates you? Is it something your doing?
@@NastasiaGrace I struggle with lust which the Bible condemns but ironically God won’t send me my future husband even though I will be 28 in less than 6 months. I hope I get blessed like you before I end up hooking up.
@@IAMJONAE why does he allow me to struggle with lust but is not good enough to send me my future husband so that I won’t struggle with this? I’m still a virgin at 27. Christian’s can’t understand hormones
If there's an orthodox church nearby you could try to get some holy water. Drinking that helps with healing from various conditions. Also pray for forgiving and uprooting ancestral sins.

Are you planning on getting married?
@@user-kb1ur9ky8b why?
@@angwithab6186 You mentioned being in a relationship.
I pray the Lord would deliver you from all fear, anxiety, and depression in Jesus name!!!
thank you Natalie!!
The first and second years of marriage were definitely the hardest for us. God heals all.

I can totally relate!!
How can I become the woman a man wants to marry?
Interested in a modesty video, what your views are on it as well as tips on how to stay modest as a Christian 💖
Same! Especially for outfits during the summer!
Yes!!!
I’m happy to see a marriage video! I haven’t been able to relate to the single videos...haven’t been single in 11 years. 😂 I married my middle school sweetheart.
How do I get a man to fall on love with me? do I need to be skinny?
Yes! I also feel more depressed when I lay down early/ sun not set. Thought I was the only one!
I have already started praying about everything that I were hearing be blessed!!!

that's so beautiful and honestly so true!!
I go to bed at 10:30pm and get up at 5am everyday. It’s a hard work schedule to have.
thank you for being open about your marriage!! I look up to you so much ❤️❤️

Do you watch Chynna Phillips too??? So do I!!!
Very common themes that constantly need to be nurtured in a healthy marriage 🥰

Makes me so glad for subscribing, thank you for sharing and being vulnerable!!❤️🌻
Praise the Lord! You keep the Sabbath. I’m glad to gear that sis! So are you a Seventh day Adventist ?
I’m praying to be able to live out my dream of being a stay at home mom, but praying finances won’t stand in the way and hold us back :/
Im so sorry to hear about your drawbacks with the medications weaning off. I know what that feels like. I pray that you are good :-)
Love your videoos! So inspiring and always so needed. Thank youu
Also you look beautiful!! 😊
And you’re so strong 🤍🤍🤍
I love all of your videos
I know you have been busy with work and marriage and daily life things but if you have read any good books recently if you could give recs
Why is gambling a sin
I was wondering what form of birth control you take in place of birth control pills?
we do natural family planning! so tracking my ovulation and avoiding intimacy during that time!
@@NastasiaGrace Thanks so much! Lol I didn't see this for a while because I don't get notifications on my phone, just my computer haha :) That's awesome! I'm thinking of doing the same one day when I'm married... one day haha
I’m single so nope!
Why would you be on birth control before marriage if you were waiting until marriage to have sex?
There are medical reasons women go on birth control that have nothing to do with sex.
Sometimes women are prescribed them if there is a hormone imbalance,
If you think people have opinions now, wait til you have kids. Everyone is an “expert”. 😒
I hope that God loves me enough to bless me with marriage. I want it badly and I'm 27. I've prayed but Jesus hates me.
if you really believe that Jesus hates you, why would you pray? is it just to get what you think you want? we should be approaching the throne of God with humility and admiration, not like a genie in a bottle.
