You can be spiritually grounded and depressed. Owning it helps you to look at your life objectively. It’s not a weakness or a sign of lack of faith. There are practical tools that can help you understand your triggers and limits. This would help you not have these lows. Sending lots of love
@@layefaebitonmo faith comes by hearing and hearing and hearing the word of God.what helped me is listening to sermons from men and women of God…some of my favorites are Rev lady Adejumo,Apostle Eric Nyamekye,Duncan williams ,Rev Monroe hope this helps
This is so relatable. I'm still learning to surrender everything in my life to God. I feel that's the only way i can keep going, without overthinking or getting distracted by the negatives, and so far it works. I'd recommend starting a plan that relates to your mental state, on the bible app, and also watching other youtubers who speak on the things you're currently experiencing.
You are an amazing person and I would advise you do more of praises. When that feeling comes do your best to fight it by praising God in whatever language you can. YOU ARE LOVED AND BLESSED
I am still watching, but I had to come and comment. I love this vlog, and I love the friendship between you and Oreva. So beautiful, I was literally just praying for God to bless me with amazing friendships. I hope I find my people.❤
Oreva is so funny. Dear Layefa, even as Christians, we have these experiences sometimes. Do not stop praying, do not stop believing, do not stop trusting. I have been experiencing the same thing but I shall remain grounded in prayers. Trust in the Lord with all of your heart. All will fall in place. He will give you peace that surpasses all human understanding, He will give you rest and complete you. You will celebrate at last. Rejoice my love. I’m sending all my love to you and I pray the Almighty gives you peace 🤗🤗❤️
Welcome back from Ghana Layefa and congratulations on the success of your master class🎉 Thank God you’re doing fine now,things like that happen but the good thing is that you’re strong enough to get out of it We love you Layefa
Mathew 28:20 says And behold I am with you alway even unto the end of the world” use this promise as a solace and rejoice that the creator of the universe is truly right next to you and holding your hands through every step of your life. Much love ❤
Hi layefa, I’m so happy that you’re happy now, You’re an overcomer, and that experience will never race it’s ugly head anymore. Please guide your mind diligently, and do not expose it. you can see a therapist sometimes too if you need to. I pray for you today that the lord God fill your heart with satisfaction, gratitude and love, and may he permanently eliminate every fears of the unknown Amen. You’re Strong You’re bold You’re fearless You’re blessed You’re God’s favorite You have love You have a sound mind Amen
Hmmmm Layefa, I was very broke by the start of the last week and it made me really really down. But by this weekend, Layefa God showed up in a way I could never have imagined like if someone had told me, I would be like na, you joking but God did because he is God and he always will be. It just made me realize that all God needs from us is just to put our faith in him, just believe that He can and He will. I pray God grant us the ability to continuously trust in Him🙏🏿 You are blesssed🥰🥰
Hi Layefa, I don’t normally comment on videos but I really wanted to recommend this book by Joyce Meyers called the battlefield of the mind. It has really helped me understand how the enemy can attack the mind so I pray you read this and it helps on your journey. Don’t give up! ❤️
Layefa, the apartment you stayed in in Ghana is really nice. Is it possible to have details of the apartment or place you showed in the video, so we can rent or stay there on our next visit to Ghana.
I feel this way sometimes but I’ve learnt one way through it which is Praise. The moment I notice that feeling I starting. If I can sing literally I play high praise in background. Soak it in me and then boom the Holy Spirit steps in. You’re blessed and converted ma. Love you ma’am ❤
I can relate then when you are spiritually grounded sometimes you still feel down I don't think it's about growth. Sometimes you have to find this that makes you laugh. Sometimes I just cry, sometimes I put praise even when I don't feel like it. I think sometimes it's just part of life..I often find myself playing for strength to keep on going and comfort
Trust me Layefa, these are signs that things are getting better for you. Speaking from spiritual, and personal point of view… Continue to grow. Growth is never easy… Congratulations!
Layefa, walking with God is not an exemption from the tribulations of this world. You are an instrumental tool to the world and the enemy sometimes attacks the mind using things that are not going right so he can distract you from the bigger picture. It’s human to experience the low moments however we overcome by his grace. Sending you light and prayers. Also, I love your relationship with Oreva, it’s so authentic.
Thank you for sharing your high and low. It might not make sense to you that you do. But we appreciate knowing life is not all about the highs and God does not hate us when we feel down. You make me realize it's ok and bounce back up. Thank you❤
Hi layefa thank you so much for not being afraid to be vulnerable with us , you give me personally so much confidence and strength especially when I’m in my lowest of lows. You’ll always be in my prayers and I pray you light never runs out I love you soo much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Layefa, the ending part of this vlog is very relatable to me because I'm in the same season as you. Even up until now, I still feel angry, frustrated and tired. I know the word of God but then I'm tired of the waiting season. This season is very tough on me. I remember crying and screaming at God on Thursday because it felt like he doesn't hear me or know what I want. I've been trying to talk with people just so it doesn't spread into depression. I still hate to admit that even in my present situation, God is in it. Philippians 4:4-6 2 Thessalonians 3:16 Isaiah 4:10 Isaiah 49:14-17 Jer 29:11 I hope these verses help you as much as they've been of help to me. ❤
I’m just having to finish the video now and I totally understand what you mean. I struggle with feeling low sometimes too and I’ve experienced it lately and it makes me feel like I have nothing good happening in my life and I just want to lie down all day feeling sorry for myself and whispering to myself that I’m nothing, but one thing I’ve discovered that jolts me out of that State is singing praises. I’ll start singing along to gospel songs, cry, start dancing and pray. It does help me a lot and whenever I catch myself beginning to feel low, I call my name and say No, we are not letting sadness in, he that is in us is greater than he that is in the world and I start worshiping. Finding and holding unto God is indeed a beautiful journey. Lots of Love ❤
Hey Layefa, congratulations to you and Oreva on your Ghana class! You are blessed. Dont allow the sadness to deter you from focusing on God and yes, often the works of the enemy come in times where you position yourself closer and growing in Christ. Much love from South Africa.
The Devil is always fighting our minds and he will not stop until we believe right. When I started reading “THE POWER OF RIGHT BELIEVING” by Joseph Prince , I became freeeeeeeeee. I would advise that anyone going through what Layefa is talking about should get his or her hands on that book and your life will never be the same. Layefa please get that book and read okay
Hello babe, Hmmmm your are good,do not break down for what ever reason,its ok to be down,there is no shame in it, always remember that you have aloot of people that love you,you inspire me so pls,I beg you,God is with you qnf he loves you pls, ❤❤❤❤❤❤loveeeeeee uuuuuu layefaaaaaaa
It is well with you, Layefa. You are beautifully and wonderfully made by almighty God! You are intelligent and smart. The Bible never said tribulations would not come, but we are more than conquerors. It can happen again, and it doesn't mean you have failed in your xtian work. Jesus said, "Come to me all those of you who are hurt and heavy ladden, and I will give you rest." As Jesus for help. Put the sadness on His shoulders. ❤
Thank you Vera, yes this right here is what I’ve learned over the past few days, the problem is I’ve been thinking there’s something wrong with me feeling that way but that’s just life and I should just work on learning to rest on God when I feel low instead of thinking because I’m a Christian I shouldn’t feel that way. Thank you so much ❤
BE STILL. Sometimes wanting be alone is a sign God wants to have intimacy work you and sometimes it is simply your body telling you to rest. Pick a period and withdraw from it and pray DEAR GOD HERE I AM.
Layefa you are loved by God and really just have it at the back of your mind that nothing you do will make him love you more or less. At times even as Christians this feeling come and for me what worked best in those times us Thanksgiving I mean giving thanks to God not only for the good things but also for the things that seems to be going wrong and in those moments just always remember that the enemy can't do anything against you but for you.❤️
Layefa you have to know that God doesn’t bring sth we can’t handle our way. I feel when you feel that way talk to people so close to you to help you lift your spirit. I just want you to remember and understand that I love you so much and nothing or no one can define you and greater things are ahead of you. Don’t let one wrong make you forget the goodness of God because to me you’re a testament that God is good. I’ll always put you in my prayers but don’t forget that when the lies come speak the word, speak in tongues, thank God for what he has done.
2 Corinthians 10:5 - “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” Every time you get a negative thought pop up, you could try to recite this scripture repeatedly and let it sink in. Not every thought is from yourself, some is from the devil who seeks to pollute your mind. Just recite the scripture every time your mind start to wonder in that direction and bring all those thoughts into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Praying for you ❤️🙏🏽
Hi Layefa,i understand how you feel.Its very easy to say replace negative taught with positive,using words of affirmation but there are times you just have to let it flow. Job was faithful he still had set back. You can feel that way but dont let it get to you much. Your expectations will not be cut short Ok.
Hi @Layefa, good evening, beautiful vlog. I just wanted to say that there's such a thing as "burn out", it most times happens after a huge level of "pouring out", and it can also be triggered by some other "thoughts". I think it's just your spirit seeking refueling, take your time, allow it, pray while at it and believe to grow out better. (The thoughts in your head would always come, but it's easier to overcome this phase when you realize this phase would always come as long as you keeping getting successful, laugh it off sis, you are not alone). You can't be totally intentional by your strength, it's a human thing mama❤. Stay on top. Love from here!!!
I noticed that my aunty always unplugs the head of her battery anytime she won't be using her car for a while maybe it's because it affects the battery. You could try doing that
Sometimes seasonal depression is caused by hormonal imbalance or burnouts. So its good that you took sometime off for yourself. So don't be too hard on yourself and pay attention to your emotional flactuations and listen to your body and mind. You're doing great❤❤
thank you for sharing both the good and challenging. May God perfect everything that concerns you, and with every challenge give you a way out, and the grace to refocus on Him (saying this to myself, as well).
I can completely relate to what you spoke about Layefa. It was like you were speaking my mind and one thing I love that you said is “Be still and know that God is God” and I’m taking that with me. I’m also taking that I need to be more intentional about knowing the truth and silencing the lies. It is well Layefa. You are such a light and you will continue to shine bright 🫶🏾
Dear Layefa you are not alone. We all feel this way at some point and as at now that’s where I’m at but I’ve learnt to allow these type of emotions run it course when it comes. Also just get in to worship because it helps. Don’t say anything just listen to some worship songs and just let your prayers come out through the worship. It helps and don’t worry you will be fine. Sending love 🙏🏾🫶🏾 🩷
We are all human beings that live in an imperfect world, so it's OK to feel low sometimes, but do not allow it to drown you is what we should always remember. I'm glad you're OK now❤
I hope you get better and find Gods given peace. Also free yourself of the burden of what you should do and not do, hand everything over to God, tell him how you feel. I pray God keeps you and direct you his mercy will continually Shield you and purge of every sadness in Jesus name
Lafeya, to begin with, thank you so much for being vulnerable. I was in that mood last week and trust me, it was overwhelming and I felt God was too silent but guess what, He spoke to me through two people's posts on Facebook. It just happened coincidently! The truth is God who is our Father, knows how we feel every damn time! Could you speak to Him and let Him help you through the process? There's a message on 'God Who am I' by Stephanie Ike. I will recommend you speak to it. Love you😍😍
There's is something big that is going to happen to you can ever imagine it will blow your mind and the enemy is fighting it just put worship song every morning
Hello Layefa,❤️ Congratulations to you and Oreva on your masterclass in Ghana! First, it's wonderful that you have recognized the issue and acknowledged that these thoughts are lies from the devil. Whenever you can, pray Philippians 4:7 (AMP) over your mind. I believe strongly in the power of confession. Whenever I feel a contention in my spirit, I say out loud, "Devil, you cannot have my mind. I have the mind of Christ." 2 Corinthians 10:5 (BBE) says, "Putting an end to reasonings, and every high thing which is lifted up against the knowledge of God, and causing every thought to come under the authority of Christ." Remember, this battle over your mind has already been won on the cross by Christ. Therefore, you are fighting from a stance of victory, and you have triumphed through Christ Jesus our Lord. Please immerse yourself in spirit-filled songs like "Father of Spirits" by Theophilus Sunday, even when you feel happy, because we are continually fighting against the wiles of the devil (Ephesians 6:11). I will keep you in my prayers, Layefa. You have prevailed.
e more raw and real you are.. the more I keep watching you. I have battled mental depression for 12 years.. this year is my victory year❤🇰🇪.. soak in the word of God.. Call the Holy Spirit whenever you feel low and lack peace. ✌️
Sometimes we fix our gaze on only the negatives that our eyes can possibly see without seeing the Hand of God permanently placed on US. Right now Your mouth has the final say so speak all the positives that the Lord has told/promised you. Surely El-Roi sees you so keep on trusting him.
Layefa my dear, 2 Corinthians 5:16 instructs us that as believers in Christ we ought not think of each other after the flesh, meaning we ought to see ourselves and each other, in the spirit. Maybe you ought to begin seeing yourself as that beautiful NEW CREATION IN CHRIST JESUS. That NEW Layefa where ALL old things HAVE PASSED away (2 Corinthians 5:17). INCLUDING THAT demonic attack that wants to hold YOU WHO ARE FREE IN CHRIST, in bondage. It's a journey, BUT, it IS possible in Jesus. Glad you're doing better. 😉😁😊
Sometimes your soul grieves to bring out desires or things in your heart you need to bring at the altar of God. It’s actually good to get to a place of silence, prayer is you talking but silence is waiting for God to respond. This does not mean you’re not on a “spiritual level’. This is a relationship with God not a religious ladder. Be still and know he is God!
I would highly recommend Tim Keller sermons! I would recommend the one called 'How to deal with dark times ' He really encourage me to fix my eyes on Jesus
Hi Layefa! Pls don’t hesitate to seek professional psychologist for your emotional health. Sometimes even though we believe God we can and should also seek professional advice. Take good care sweetie.
Hello Layefa, I am sorry you feel this way but please be reminded that it’s the ploy of the enemy to steal our joy. I listened to Ezinne Zara’s latest YT video and it helped. Once this happens listening to Christian music, talking to God, thanksgiving and speaking the word helps. Be reminded that the joy of the lord is your strength and you have loads of persons who love you and we are rooting for you albeit silently most times💙 Thank you for sharing and being open as usual. Have a joy filled week🤗💪
Hello Layefa, I hope you see this. You are doing great. Don't let the devil make you lose sight of God's goodness. Our walk with God is a journey, we take steps daily to become one with God so never feel like you are not getting there. Like you said you need to saturate yourself with the Word of God, that is your shield on days you feel low. You fire back the Word of God at every negative thought. Also, the power of thanksgiving. Play a song(s) that'll make you dance like David danced. Even when you don't feel like it, play those songs or sing out loud, profess the Word of God and you'll uplift your spirit man. Speaking in tongues helps a lot too. Whenever you are at your lowest point, never isolate yourself. That is one of the devil's technique in making you lose sight of God. That is the time to make sure you do not miss church, joining a unit in church would also go a long way so you have like minded people whom you can easily reach out to or those that you can easily relate with in church. Lastly, like you said understand your triggers so you can present it to God and also be self aware. Sending so much love 💞
Thank you for being transparent with us , encouraging to see how you take intentional steps to pick yourself up
You can be spiritually grounded and depressed. Owning it helps you to look at your life objectively. It’s not a weakness or a sign of lack of faith. There are practical tools that can help you understand your triggers and limits. This would help you not have these lows. Sending lots of love
Thank you Nena, I’ve realized this over the past few days and that’s helping change my mindset and I pray it helps me deal with it better. Thank you ❤
@@layefaebitonmo faith comes by hearing and hearing and hearing the word of God.what helped me is listening to sermons from men and women of God…some of my favorites are Rev lady Adejumo,Apostle Eric Nyamekye,Duncan williams ,Rev Monroe hope this helps
That's just an oxymoron...you can't be grounded and be depressed...and faith comes by knowing.
This is so relatable. I'm still learning to surrender everything in my life to God. I feel that's the only way i can keep going, without overthinking or getting distracted by the negatives, and so far it works.

Dear Layefa, even as Christians, we have these experiences sometimes. Do not stop praying, do not stop believing, do not stop trusting.

Omg 😢 why didn’t I hear this 😮 awww I’ve missed the opportunity I’ve been yearning for 😢
Welcome back from Ghana Layefa and congratulations on the success of your master class🎉
Thank God you’re doing fine now,things like that happen but the good thing is that you’re strong enough to get out of it
We love you Layefa

Trust me Layefa, these are signs that things are getting better for you. Speaking from spiritual, and personal point of view… Continue to grow. Growth is never easy… Congratulations!

I mean giving thanks to God not only for the good things but also for the things that seems to be going wrong and in those moments just always remember that the enemy can't do anything against you but for you.❤️

Hi @Layefa, good evening, beautiful vlog. I just wanted to say that there's such a thing as "burn out", it most times happens after a huge level of "pouring out", and it can also be triggered by some other "thoughts". I think it's just your spirit seeking refueling, take your time, allow it, pray while at it and believe to grow out better. (The thoughts in your head would always come, but it's easier to overcome this phase when you realize this phase would always come as long as you keeping getting successful, laugh it off sis, you are not alone). You can't be totally intentional by your strength, it's a human thing mama❤. Stay on top. Love from here!!!
Don't let anything distract you. You are above the things tha worry you. Praise,worship and listen go the word of God each time you feel low.
The much awaited GHANA vlog, Akwaaba Layefa and team
Very beautiful and elegant ladies with great entrepreneurship skills !
Do you mind sharing the place you stayed at in Ghana 🇬🇭 ?
Thank you 🙏🏾
Another fantastic vlog, I cant get enough, keep up the good work, my regards to Mumsie, we miss her laughter. Stay blessed.
I noticed that my aunty always unplugs the head of her battery anytime she won't be using her car for a while maybe it's because it affects the battery. You could try doing that
Sometimes seasonal depression is caused by hormonal imbalance or burnouts. So its good that you took sometime off for yourself. So don't be too hard on yourself and pay attention to your emotional flactuations and listen to your body and mind. You're doing great❤❤
I always feel that way
I pray and hope I will stop feeling that way 😢
This is really beautiful layefa and thanks for the tour
Always remember you are enough!! You are doing great for yourself, and the world at large u are a blessing and not a curse.
thank you for sharing both the good and challenging. May God perfect everything that concerns you, and with every challenge give you a way out, and the grace to refocus on Him (saying this to myself, as well).
I can completely relate to what you spoke about Layefa. It was like you were speaking my mind and one thing I love that you said is “Be still and know that God is God” and I’m taking that with me. I’m also taking that I need to be more intentional about knowing the truth and silencing the lies. It is well Layefa. You are such a light and you will continue to shine bright 🫶🏾
You and your friend are so cute!😊🫶🏾
Dear Layefa you are not alone. We all feel this way at some point and as at now that’s where I’m at but I’ve learnt to allow these type of emotions run it course when it comes. Also just get in to worship because it helps. Don’t say anything just listen to some worship songs and just let your prayers come out through the worship. It helps and don’t worry you will be fine. Sending love 🙏🏾🫶🏾 🩷
😂😂😂 loving this already can't wait for the main the main
We are all human beings that live in an imperfect world, so it's OK to feel low sometimes, but do not allow it to drown you is what we should always remember. I'm glad you're OK now❤
I hope you get better and find Gods given peace. Also free yourself of the burden of what you should do and not do, hand everything over to God, tell him how you feel. I pray God keeps you and direct you his mercy will continually Shield you and purge of every sadness in Jesus name
you will be fine i promise
really enjoyed the vlog and transparency 💕💕
We love Layefa✨
Don’t let the devil cloud your mind with anxiety
It is well with you Layefa🤍🤍
It's well with you Layefa ❤️
Lafeya, to begin with, thank you so much for being vulnerable. I was in that mood last week and trust me, it was overwhelming and I felt God was too silent but guess what, He spoke to me through two people's posts on Facebook. It just happened coincidently!
The truth is God who is our Father, knows how we feel every damn time! Could you speak to Him and let Him help you through the process?
There's a message on 'God Who am I' by Stephanie Ike. I will recommend you speak to it.
Love you😍😍
This is really lovely ❤

Welcome to Ghana 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭 leyefa❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ghana is killing African American and scamming them with fake land, Ghanaians are very greedy people
Just krep telling yourself this " God over everything"......... It is well with you momma ❤❤😘😘
I always enjoy your outros ❤
Well done my boss 💗😘
Hello Layefa,❤️
Congratulations to you and Oreva on your masterclass in Ghana! First, it's wonderful that you have recognized the issue and acknowledged that these thoughts are lies from the devil. Whenever you can, pray Philippians 4:7 (AMP) over your mind.
I believe strongly in the power of confession. Whenever I feel a contention in my spirit, I say out loud, "Devil, you cannot have my mind. I have the mind of Christ." 2 Corinthians 10:5 (BBE) says, "Putting an end to reasonings, and every high thing which is lifted up against the knowledge of God, and causing every thought to come under the authority of Christ."
Remember, this battle over your mind has already been won on the cross by Christ. Therefore, you are fighting from a stance of victory, and you have triumphed through Christ Jesus our Lord. Please immerse yourself in spirit-filled songs like "Father of Spirits" by Theophilus Sunday, even when you feel happy, because we are continually fighting against the wiles of the devil (Ephesians 6:11).
I will keep you in my prayers, Layefa. You have prevailed.
e more raw and real you are.. the more I keep watching you. I have battled mental depression for 12 years.. this year is my victory year❤🇰🇪.. soak in the word of God.. Call the Holy Spirit whenever you feel low and lack peace. ✌️
Sometimes we fix our gaze on only the negatives that our eyes can possibly see without seeing the Hand of God permanently placed on US. Right now Your mouth has the final say so speak all the positives that the Lord has told/promised you. Surely El-Roi sees you so keep on trusting him.
I love Layefa ❤
Layefa my dear, 2 Corinthians 5:16 instructs us that as believers in Christ we ought not think of each other after the flesh, meaning we ought to see ourselves and each other, in the spirit. Maybe you ought to begin seeing yourself as that beautiful NEW CREATION IN CHRIST JESUS. That NEW Layefa where ALL old things HAVE PASSED away (2 Corinthians 5:17). INCLUDING THAT demonic attack that wants to hold YOU WHO ARE FREE IN CHRIST, in bondage. It's a journey, BUT, it IS possible in Jesus. Glad you're doing better. 😉😁😊
Femi Lazarus how to come out of being stuck that sermon might help
God bless you for sharing this sermon with me, both part 1 and 2 ❤❤❤
@@layefaebitonmo amen 🙏🏿
God is with you
You motivate me Layefa. Try some meditation also
Was that Jack and Jill I saw😭😭😭😭😭
It has been forever😭😭😭
Have you considered CBT?
GOD IS FAITHFUL 😅
Sometimes your soul grieves to bring out desires or things in your heart you need to bring at the altar of God. It’s actually good to get to a place of silence, prayer is you talking but silence is waiting for God to respond. This does not mean you’re not on a “spiritual level’. This is a relationship with God not a religious ladder. Be still and know he is God!
No sadness has a place in ur life in Jesus Name.. God Bless u❤
I would highly recommend Tim Keller sermons! I would recommend the one called 'How to deal with dark times ' He really encourage me to fix my eyes on Jesus
Akwaaba 😊😊😊
Lovely ❤❤
Hi Layefa! Pls don’t hesitate to seek professional psychologist for your emotional health. Sometimes even though we believe God we can and should also seek professional advice. Take good care sweetie.
Hello Layefa, I am sorry you feel this way but please be reminded that it’s the ploy of the enemy to steal our joy.
I listened to Ezinne Zara’s latest YT video and it helped. Once this happens listening to Christian music, talking to God, thanksgiving and speaking the word helps.
Be reminded that the joy of the lord is your strength and you have loads of persons who love you and we are rooting for you albeit silently most times💙
Thank you for sharing and being open as usual. Have a joy filled week🤗💪
Hello Layefa, I hope you see this. You are doing great. Don't let the devil make you lose sight of God's goodness.
Our walk with God is a journey, we take steps daily to become one with God so never feel like you are not getting there. Like you said you need to saturate yourself with the Word of God, that is your shield on days you feel low. You fire back the Word of God at every negative thought. Also, the power of thanksgiving. Play a song(s) that'll make you dance like David danced. Even when you don't feel like it, play those songs or sing out loud, profess the Word of God and you'll uplift your spirit man. Speaking in tongues helps a lot too.
Whenever you are at your lowest point, never isolate yourself. That is one of the devil's technique in making you lose sight of God. That is the time to make sure you do not miss church, joining a unit in church would also go a long way so you have like minded people whom you can easily reach out to or those that you can easily relate with in church.
Lastly, like you said understand your triggers so you can present it to God and also be self aware. Sending so much love 💞
The enemy is trifling… you are covered in Jesus name. 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
