Episode #133, "Face the Darkest Valley with Prayer" with guest speaker, Teodora and co-host, Heather Youpa

Welcome back to the BE ENCOURAGED! Podcast!  I am your host, Jackie Brindle and you are listening to episode 133! This is the continuation of episode 132 where Heather Youpa, my co-host and I, interviewed our dearest friend, Teodora! THIS episode is so special and deserves it’s own space and name! In this, Teadora continues to unravel more of her own story when she walked through one of the scariest moments she ever faced, being a mother. As she faced one of life’s darkest valleys, it was her unwavering faith that became a beacon of hope. 💖🙏 When her son faced relentless seizures, she turned to prayer, trusting in the Lord's will over her son’s life. Her journey is a testament to the power of a praying mother and serves as an incredible encouragement to any parent navigating their own trials. Through every tear and whispered prayer, she found strength and witnessed miracles. In this episode, Teadora encourages us all, to give Jesus a try! To surrender your life and see where it goes because it has transformed hers, so there’s no telling what your life will do when you place Him at the center of it, too!  So grab your cup of coffee, get on your walk or run and BE ENCOURAGED!  🌟✨ Jackie  Mentioned in today’s episode:  Follow Host of BE ENCOURAGED!
