Thanks Chrystal for being an amazing virtual mentor. I am sticking out this doctoral journey as a wife, mother of 3 GIRLS, full-time college instructor and many other roles. I am focused on what's in front of me while also focusing on the finish. With God, I will STICK IT OUT and finish strong. My story for His glory!!!
I'm so glad I stuck it out last year - In my last year of Law School. With intense semesters, not having enough finances, depressed, anxious and almost committing suicide - But I'm so glad I stuck it out. God is so Faithful. Now I am seeing the reason He didn't allow me to take my life - My finances are great, I am in a job I love, almost getting admitted to start practising law. He is so Good. I didn't know what would happen after I stuck it out but I took each day at it came, sometimes even living an hour at a time, because a day was just too long for me to keep going. I know trials will come in future but I'm glad that I conquered some last year and I know that by God's help I will conquer more. Thanks Chrystal for this timely reminder to stick it out - even when things are HARD!!
Thank you. I just wrote in my prayer book this morning asking God to directly speak to me about my situation and then I came across this as I went on RU-vid. I am entering a new level of leadership, and yesterday my mind was a mess because I was so stressed about the role and if I can actually do it, especially since there are other colleagues who are my senior whether because they've been there longer or are just older so I was a bit overwhelmed until I started speaking life into myself and decided that I would just try showing up and giving my best , as I usually do in my previous role with research and curiosity. This is such a timely message for me.
Crystal, so glad I'm sticking it out for school at 63. I see more older adults are going back to school. I thank you and your team for the labor of love. Blessings!
It was encouraging for me to hear that God waste nothing the good and the bad sometimes I live in soooooo much regret but that's a great outlook on it.the breadcrumbs matter
Thank you for this message. Today makes 4 years since my mother passed away and it is also Father's Day and the man that was my father passed away in 2014. I did not want to get up today, in the middle of graduate school and I keep asking myself "why am I pushing myself to be successful"? Even at 41 I want my parents here to cheer me on and it's hard not to give up.
God is a keeper. I cared for my Dad for 4 years. He had Dementia. It was quite an understanding. One day I was living my life taking care of my family, working a career I loved and then I got a call where everything changed. It cost me my health and mental stability. BUT because of GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY I have survived. Even at the beginning and through a pandemic! My 82 year old Dad and I never caught COVID. We went to Dr. appointments & grocery shopping. We survived. My Dad was able to stay in his home with someone who knew and loved him till the end of his life. For that I am eternally grateful to God for giving me His Power to go through and complete this task. Hang in there!
I'm so glad I stuck it out with the tests I had this week that was spiritual and manifested in the physical 🙌 🙏 😌...Case Dismissed 😁🤣Won't He Do it!! 😏glad I headed those warnings..Happy Pentecost!!! Thank You Jesus Christ and Thank You Holy Spirit 🙏
I am so glad I stuck it out when I worked in dental billing. I was on the same level as the other office workers but my boss told me "because I was there, I was to catch all mistakes." So everyone's mistakes was placed on me. This was new for me, unfair, because I was not a supervisor, not a manager. I was the same as my coworker but what this taught me was detail. Right now I am having to learn how to walk through life without my mom. I lost her 2 months ago. I have an amazing husband, kids, dad, sisters but we all feel her loss. It is a struggle But I will continue to praise my God!
My current position. I’ve entered the work place in insurance after being a SAHM for 13 years. My position is challenging and because I’m a bit of a slow learner, it feels like a lot of work. But I KNOW God opened this door for me and so I’m sticking it out and this message was confirmation that I’m doing what I need to do. God is building something that I’ll experience when the time is right. Thanks for being willing to be my big sis…I appreciate your wisdom and the foolery😂😂. It’s all beneficial and helpful🙌🏽
your testimony has encouraged me as a SAHM trying her hand in business... will keep showing up for myself... God will perfect that which He started in us in this season.. Cheering you on..
Mines is hard to describe...all I can say is that I've been going through life transitions...blessings but transitions none the less and God has just been keeping me through them. Keeping my sanity lol and showing me where to give myself grace as I learn who I am I'm each of those seasons such as single to married...married with no kids to married with two...having an older parent. All the things of life...thank God for Him keeping me!
Hi Chrystal, I'm a 22 year old from South Africa. I'm currently having to stick it out at my part time job and my new relationship. I really needed this message 🙂❤
I’m in the middle of sticking it out at my job however your word reminded to be grateful for the journey because it is only to mold me and push me to the next level!
Thank you Chrystal for the encouraging words! In the next few weeks I will be launching my new business and you have given me the push that I needed to be more visible and vocal on social media, which is completely stepping out of my comfort zone! I'm sticking it out!
When I read the title, my eyes got big and I said OMG "Is that you speaking to me Lord" because I started a new career/business recently that I'm ready to QUIT! BUT GOD used this Women of God to speak to my ❤️ to keep showing up because even in this HARD place God is doing a work in me......So thank you Chrystal for your words of wisdom and encouragement!
I was very encouraged with this message! I started a diet on yesterday and I’ve trying to do better with saving and not spending so much, and considering leaving my job. This message encourage me to stick it out with my diet, and job. It also opened my eyes on my spending, saving. I am going to STICK IT OUT! Thank you very much for this word. ❤
Well said! 🙌 I’ve thought this and said this many times to a few! But God knew I needed this now! Thank you Chrystal. Sticking out this business launch which has stalled! Wonderful words of wisdom to your growing Manchild! 🙌
I'm working on sticking it out as an entrepreneur. Definitely trying hard not to think about returning to work and letting this lifelong dream that isnt quite going as planned fade out. So, thanks for the reminders!
I asked God to help me in this season and he led me to this message. Now I have tools 💪🏽 thank you Jesus! I currently am sticking it out at a challenging job while taking on a 2nd job and while facing challenges in my marriage, I currently cannot see,touch an rarely get to talk to my husband at the time being right now and it has been chapping my behind. But through it all I have decided I’m going to continue to show up.
Thank you so much for sowing seeds of encouragement in this message! I am a foster mom to two sweet children. It has been an amazing experience but is overwhelming at times, like this morning! But even during the challenging times of fostering(for longer than I have expected!), I know God is doing something very sweet and very special in all of our lives. I most definitely plan to stick it out!
Thank you.Some people take for granted what they know..I believe in your message..Need to have this message saved so when things get though I can to keep going.Again thank you
I needed this 30 years ago, on how to speak to someone when they come down on me, even though I did stick it out it was very tough. thank you so much for this I can now use it for my next generation.
This was such a blessing for me. I currently took on a new job at a hospital and it is very humbling. And I have been really trying to decide if I should stay. I am so great full for this discussion, despite the disrespect and the mean girl vibe by my coworkers, I have realize there is a reason and a lesson in this. Now will I be on this job long, I don’t know. But I will stick it out. Thank you so much, keep up the good work.
I was almost giving up on a project that I have a strong passion for due to some challenges. This video has hyped me up and I am going to stick out till everything runs as expected. Thank you very much Chrystal for the mentorship.
Good Morning from HTX🤎 I am a Woman’s Coach, I help High Performing Women work from a place of rest through radical Self Care in Jesus. I am still learning and developing to become more and more of a solid ground for my clients and future clients. Chrystal, this message like all the rest, has hit me and convicted me and ignited me even more! “Copious Notes” is what I am teaching myself to do now with your talks. Thank you for being a vessel and a teacher. We need it. I will be joining the Inner Circle, hopefully, by the end of this week. Blessings🤎
I am in CNA1 class to develop more skills to continue to be my Dad's caregiver. I am going well although it stressful and there is a lot of homework and so much going on at home. I want to continue to do well and learn all my skills me being old enough to be the other students mother. Please pray for me. THANK YOU
Hi Mrs. Chrystal. I really enjoyed the message. On my job I sometimes want to quit, but I stuck it out. Sometimes when a new supervisor tells me what to do I get upset. After that I do the job. I’m learning how to humble myself when it feels uncomfortable.
You seem to always have a WORD that is RIGHT. On. TIME!!! Thank you for sharing and for your commitment to excellence. You really are the big sister to daughters in the body of Christ! Your advice makes me believe just a little bit more, a little while longer, and a little bit better. In every language - THANK YOU!
Thanks again Big sis! I just started a new job that I know I am called to do. It has started off very frustrating and I needed this encouragement to remember I belong there and I have to keep showing up! Love ya😘
Thanks so much Chrystal, this video was for me. I'm presently in my waiting/ preparation season and some days are so tough but our God is so intentional; because by the time I saw the title of the video I knew in my spirit that this was a word of encouragement from my beloved Father. Thanks for allowing God to use you in this way. God bless you!
This was golden! Really will make a difference in several areas of my life. Thank you and may God continue to bless you and your fam 🙌🏿🙏🏿💕 I needed encouragement in area area that you mentioned today thank you again😊
Pace yourself and do the practice exams. Don't psyche yourself out when the practice exam scores don’t look great. Keep studying, practicing, and praying - you will pass your first try. All the best! 🙏🏾
My imposter syndrome is feeling like I am not good at making hair products thinking that other people products are better than mines and I don’t know what I am doing . Self doubt.
How can I put this video on repeat? I am currently sticking it out at a job I begged God for. 😅 I know there are lessons in me sticking it out here but my my my 😭
I want to be a nurse lord I am having a hard time in my anatomy and physiology class. I don’t have the strongest memory. Lord it’s a lot. God how am I going to become a nurse and I don’t learn as quickly. I feel like giving up. Maybe nursing isn’t for me. This class is a challenge. I feel like I am not smart enough I am not understanding the material. I am struggling. I’m like God I just want to throw in the towel.
The Gospel: Plain and Simple “But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.” - 2 Corithians 11:3 Ask someone today if they are saved and you will most likely hear responses like these: “I have accepted Jesus into my heart.” Or “I have made him Lord of my life.” “I’ve been baptized.” “I said a prayer.” Sounds all good and churchy don’t it; but it is difficult to de-termine whether or not a person actually knows the gospel that saves them. These useless phrases don’t describe a thing about what the gospel is and has left a devastating effect of people not knowing what it is that they are saved from nor how they are saved; which leaves a more serious effect of people questioning their salvation. Let’s not muddy the simplicity of salvation that is in Christ with vague church sounding phrases that do not communicate anything. But rather present God’s word with clarity and assuredness. So here is the gospel: plain and simple. Sin was passed upon all men by one man Adam, and death is a consequence of this sin (Rom 5:12). Mankind has an eternal destiny of condemnation and wrath - Hell - because of this sin (Rom 6:23). No matter what good works one might do we are still found sinners in the sight of our Creator God. And all unrighteousness and those who follow get indignation and wrath. We cannot be found righteous for by God’s law we are found sinners (Rom 3:19-20). If we have broken even one law we are found guilty. It is for this reason of not being able to create our own righteousness and being born in a sinful flesh that we need a savior (Titus 3:5). Christ is that Savior, God manifested in the flesh, sinless, died in our place on a cross 2000 years ago. Taking upon him the wrath and judgement that was intended for us sinners. And it is through his bloodshed, burial, and resurrection on our behalf that we are able to have peace with God and forgiveness of our sins (1 Cor 15:1-4, Col 3:14). This good news is unto all but only those that believe in it are made righteous in Christ (Romans 3:22). It is then after we have heard this good news of Christ’s righteousness available to us freely, that we are sealed with the Holy Spirit and we are now part of Christ’s body the church (Eph 1:13) There is nothing that we need to do, no good works that are required, and no bad works that can separate us from our new position in Christ (Romans 8:35-39). Faith and belief in this information from God’s word is the gospel. The gospel is not accepting Jesus into your heart. The gospel is not making him lord of your life, it is not saying a prayer and it is not being baptized with water. So next time someone asks you if you are saved. Give them the clear assured answer “Yes! And let me tell you why!” Find more free resources at: www.graceambassadors.com
