What do you do when the pain feels unbearable? When the medication is denied, the tears don’t stop, and the distraction of scrolling isn’t enough?

In this episode of Fearfully & Wonderfully Diagnosed, I share a raw moment of my own story—sitting in pain, searching for relief, and unexpectedly encountering Jesus through the story of the woman with the issue of blood (Luke 8:43–48).

Like her, we all face moments where faith pushes us past fear, shame, and limitations. Sometimes healing doesn’t look like a sudden cure—but like peace in the storm, relief for the night, or the presence of God meeting us right where we are.

This episode is a reminder that Instagram can distract you, but only Jesus can restore you. Whether you’re wrestling with chronic illness, unanswered prayers, or nights that feel endless, you’ll hear encouragement to keep reaching out for Him—because His presence is always the greater miracle.

When pain feels endless, how do we keep going? In this episode of Fearfully & Wonderfully Diagnosed, we dig into a simple but powerful phrase: “a mere second.”

Drawing from Scripture (Romans 12:2, Philippians 3, Revelation 21, and 1 Corinthians 15), we’ll explore how shifting our perspective from the temporary to the eternal changes the way we carry our suffering.

You’ll be reminded that your diagnosis, your tears, your sleepless nights—they are real, but they are not forever. In Christ, pain has an expiration date, and hope has no end.

Whether you’re walking through infertility, chronic illness, or just a season that feels unbearably heavy, this conversation will anchor you in the truth: This is but a mere second. Eternity with Christ is coming—and it will be whole, healed, and full of joy.

When the Apostle Paul pleaded for God to remove his “thorn in the flesh,” God’s response wasn’t what he expected—it was better. In this episode, we explore 2 Corinthians 12:7–10 and the powerful truth that God’s grace is not only enough to carry us, but His power shines brightest when we are at our weakest.

As someone living with chronic illness, I understand the longing for healing and the frustration of unanswered prayers. But like Paul, I’m learning what it means to rely on God’s strength instead of my own—and how to find true contentment even in suffering.

We’ll talk about:

1. The reality of living with a “thorn”
2. Why God sometimes says “My grace is sufficient” instead of “Yes”
3. Practical steps to becoming content in your illness
4. The paradox of weakness and strength
5. How to root your joy in Christ, not in your circumstances

If you’ve ever wondered how to trust God with your pain and still live with purpose, this conversation will remind you—you are not alone, and your weakness is the very place where His power is made perfect.

Can chronic illness steal your joy? It might feel like it—especially when your days are filled with pain, fatigue, and unanswered questions. In this episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal reflection on what it means to grieve the version of ourselves we used to be… and how Jesus meets us in that grief.

We’re not just talking about finding joy—we’re talking about how Jesus IS joy. And because He doesn’t change, neither does our access to real, lasting joy—even in our hardest seasons.

If you’ve ever looked at your life and wondered where your joy went, this one’s for you. You are not your diagnosis. You are not forgotten. And your suffering is not the end of your story.

This is your encouragement to take every thought captive — not just when it’s easy.
