Walking with Kelley and Kristy

29 | A Warrior on The Waves - God Wastes Nothing!

In this episode, our producer and friend, Adriana Melendez shares a personal story from her past that involves a season of depression and self harm.  It is a powerful testimony and reminder to each of us that God wastes nothing, not one single thing that the enemy wants to use for evil. The hurts and pains from our past can always be turned around for good if we allow God the opportunity to do so. God continues to use the scars of her past to point others toward the healing and redeeming love she has experienced in Christ. Adriana is a warrior for the Lord and she uses her platform to share the Love of Jesus over the sound waves any chance she gets. We pray you are encouraged to take the next steps towards your own freedom. Maybe that looks like reaching out for help, or by making a public decision to follow Christ for the first time, or by sharing your own story of freedom with someone in need of some encouragement today. We were not created to walk alone and we are so thankful to be walking with you today.

In this episode, our good friend Cindy Robinson, joins us at the table as we continue to talk about Walking with a Past - but Pressing on towards Freedom in Christ.

Depression is real and disabling, BUT with GOD, it does not define us. We will sing of the GOODNESS of God in every season - past, present, and all that is to come.

In this episode, Tracy Richard joins us at the table and encourages us to keep Walking with a Game Plan. Psalm 119:105 reminds us that "God's WORD is a lamp to our feet, and a light for our path."
