    This has touched so many lives. Even if we were not in your shoes, there is so much of the Father's love for us all in this. He is with us through and through. Praise God for using Russ and I thank God for Russ and his humble willingness to be real. Russ and Tori you are very very loved. Thank you for sharing .

    Dear Chonda, I have viewed many of your videos. You have brought laughter into my life and tears. I am a child of God. I have been alone for 10 years. I never wanted to be alone in my senior years. I find that many of your experiences, I have felt or they were a part of my life. I have felt your pain as I know my own. May God bless you and guide you in the years ahead of you. ❤

    Tears of joy and tears of sorrow.....I have them too.....not because I lost my husband of 53 years....but because we lost our son when he was 35 years old. It is a barrier that, after almost 16 years, is still so tough to get through. I hate it....but I have hope....hope that I will see him again....hope that he really did give his life to Christ so many years ago....trust in His Word.....thank you.

    Chonda Pierce , you will learn that God used you to help us all cope as you sacrificed your time with your kids. He had them, and you will be richly rewarded for the sacrifice you made missing out on time with them. Reality begins when we step into heaven. This is just our dress rehearsal ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

    Saw your video on soft white underbelly, would have been nice if you would have mentioned "jesus", just once. You were healed by what? AA? Still waiting for you to highlight Jesus and not some multiple rehab or AA program. Listen to and believe in your words of your music.

    Chonda. I’m so thankful for you. I’ve been struggling with the loss of my beloved. I’m a retired nurse. We took care of his mom until her 99th birthday and she went to be with the Lord. He had began showing signs of dementia. I had retired from nursing but recently took an interim position at my church in finances ( part time). His dementia was getting worse and after 2 1/2 years I resigned and was training my replacement, at the end of the training he became ill. Found out he had stomach, and lung cancer. I brought him home prepared to nurse him until? I was a nurse. Hospice was coming in to assist. He went to be with the Lord 3 days later. It’s been a difficult year. I was scrolling thru U TUBE and stopped on your site. Had to be a blessing from God or a “Its Time” get it together. You have blessed me so tenderly with your story. I’m ready to go through it instead of around it. God bless you I thank you so much for being strong enough to share your story. We were married 40 years. He gave his life to God about a year before he passed. Glory to God.

    I realize we all go thru hard times growing up. We were raised in a legalistic denomination, but made it through by God's help. What I don't understand is, the hard and emotionally and mentally difficult as it has been for some, what good is it doing you to go public, airing out your spiritual laundry. Pray about it, bury it under the blood and be quiet. If someone needs help to go through what you've been through, help counsel them with prayer and God's word, but no need to go public about it. The Bible says to forget those things which are behind you and press on toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God. Do you think Jesus went public with what he went through here on earth?
