The places where I felt unseen, unheard, or unloved — I lay them at Your feet. Your Word says in Jeremiah 30:17, "I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds," declares the Lord. So I trust You, God — restore the broken parts of me. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Prayer to Release Past Hurt & Trauma Lord, I’m tired of carrying this pain. I lay down the bitterness, the resentment, and every memory that still hurts. Help me forgive — even when it’s hard. Your Word says in Psalm 147:3, "You heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds." Heal me, Lord — bind me back together with Your love. Amen. Prayer for the Inner Child Father, Speak tenderly to the little girl inside me — the part of me that still feels afraid, alone, or not good enough. In Psalm 23:3, Your Word says, "You restore my soul. You lead me beside still waters. You are my Shepherd." So I rest in Your arms. Hold the young me — and tell her she is safe now. Amen. Prayer to Overcome Self-Doubt God, Silence every voice that says I’m not enough. Let Your truth be louder than the lies I’ve believed. Your Word says in Psalm 139:14, "I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well." I receive that truth into my heart today. Amen. Prayer for Freedom from People-Pleasing Lord, I don’t want to keep living for the approval of others. Set me free from the need to be liked, and help me focus on pleasing You. As it says in Galatians 1:10, "If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ." Give me courage to set boundaries with love and wisdom. Amen. PART 2: Prayers for Love & Healthy Relationships Prayer for a Godly Spouse Father, I pray for a partner who puts You first — a man of integrity, kindness, and faith. Your Word says in Matthew 6:33, "Seek first the Kingdom of God… and all these things will be added to you." So I seek You — and trust You with the rest. Amen. Prayer for Emotional Safety God, I long for a love that is patient and kind, not confusing or painful. I want love that reflects Yours. Your Word in 1 Corinthians 13:4 reminds us, "Love is patient, love is kind… it keeps no record of wrongs." That’s the kind of love I wait for — nothing less. Amen. Prayer for Discernment Lord, Help me see clearly. Don’t let loneliness cloud my judgment. Give me wisdom to know what’s from You — and what’s not. Your Word says in James 1:5, "If anyone lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, and it will be given generously." So I ask You now — guide my heart and my steps. Amen. Prayer for Patience While Waiting Father, It’s hard to wait. But I know You’re not withholding — You’re preparing. Strengthen me while I wait. In Isaiah 40:31, Your Word promises, "Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength… they will walk and not grow weary." Help me wait in peace, not panic. Amen. Prayer for Protection from Red Flags Lord, If it’s not from You — let it fall apart. Open my eyes to see every red flag and close the door to anything ...

If you need immediate support, please reach out to a licensed mental health professional. TRANSCRIPT Today, I want to sit with you heart to heart. This isn’t going to be a long teaching. It’s not even going to be filled with a hundred tips. It’s just one question. One that could change everything about how you approach love, Before you pray for a husband… Before you call that connection “God-ordained”... Ask yourself: Am I choosing love from my healing — or from my wounds? Because the truth is: unhealed pain doesn’t go away just because we want to be loved. It shows up in how we see ourselves, how we settle, and who we say “yes” to. when you haven’t healed, you won’t just feel lonely — You’ll feel unworthy. Insecure. Silent in rooms where you should speak. And that doesn’t just affect your confidence at work or in friendships — It affects who you let close to your heart. Let me tell you a real story — shared with permission — that captures this perfectly. Amanda was beautiful. Resourceful. A university graduate. But somewhere along the way, life chipped away at her self-esteem. So she took a job far below her qualifications. Every day, she worked beside people who had the same degree — but they were leading teams, presenting ideas, getting promoted. She dressed plainly. She avoided attention. And she quietly assumed, “Maybe I’m just unlucky. Maybe this is all I’m worth.” She couldn’t say no. She avoided asking for help. She stayed quiet — and small — even when she had ideas. Then… the attention started. Not from the man she hoped would notice her — a respectful, professional Christian colleague who kept his boundaries and showed no mixed signals. But from other men. One by one, they started coming around. A married colleague asked her out. Another — who openly used drugs and alcohol — started spending time with her. And she let him. Not because she didn’t know better. But because something in her still felt: “This is the best I can get.” He’d call her after work. Visit her. Stay on the phone for hours. She knew it wasn’t aligned with her values. But it felt like affection. Like attention. And that… felt like love. Until one weekend — she called his line. And his friend answered: “He can’t come to the phone… he’s at his customary wedding.” Her heart broke. Deep down, she had known. But she stayed — because the fear of being lonely was louder than the fear of being used. Later, when she confronted him, he said something that shook her: “I was dating you both… just waiting to see who was ready to marry first.” That moment — that heartbreak — became her turning point. She asked herself, for the first time: “What is it about the way I show up… that makes emotionally unavailable, dishonorable men feel comfortable with me?” And the truth? It wasn’t her fault. But it was her responsibility to heal. What most people didn’t know was that Amanda’s parents divorced when she was just 10 years old. Her father remarried quickly, found a new sense of purpose in his new church community, and became a committed husband — just not to her mother...

  • WHY THAT RELATIONSHIP FEELS OFF.

    WHY THAT RELATIONSHIP FEELS OFF.
    Jun 24 2025
    Why that relationship feels off, could be because it is trauma familiarity. Here’s what I’ve learned about trauma: It doesn’t always show up as pain. Sometimes, it shows up as familiar. It teaches your nervous system, “This is what love feels like” — even if it’s unsafe. Even if it hurts. But just because it feels familiar doesn’t mean it’s right. Welcome to Emotional Healing for Christian Women. Thank You! For listening. Podcast Transcript is at the bottom of this page. I’m Marvel C. Adeyemi⁠, a licensed Psychotherapist and Faith -Based Coach who supports Christian women. Imagine waking up without the weight of shame, fear, and loneliness. Imagine finally feeling worthy, confident, and at peace — and doing it with God by your side.

If you need immediate support, please reach out to a licensed mental health professional. Transcript: God Didn’t Send Him — Trauma Did You were right all along… something felt off, didn’t it? I thought he was an answer to prayer… but he was actually a reflection of my pain. I convinced myself it was “God’s will,” but really — it was just familiar dysfunction wrapped in hope. Have you ever spiritually justified someone who constantly triggered your anxiety, ignored your boundaries, or made you feel like you were asking for too much? Let’s talk about it — honestly, gently, and without judgment. Here’s what I’ve learned about trauma: It doesn’t always show up as pain. Sometimes, it shows up as familiar. It teaches your nervous system, “This is what love feels like” — even if it’s unsafe. Even if it hurts. But just because it feels familiar doesn’t mean it’s right. And can I just say this gently? This was never about shame — it’s about clarity. Because when you finally name the pattern… you take the first step toward breaking it. The truth is: not every relationship that feels intense is from God. Sometimes, it’s not divine alignment. Sometimes… it’s trauma reenactment. I’ve heard this story so many times — from women who are smart, prayerful, and deeply faithful… Women who love God but find themselves entangled in painful relationships that mirror the rejection, chaos, or emotional abandonment they experienced growing up. So when someone triggers your abandonment wound or treats you how your emotionally unavailable parent did… Your body might interpret that as chemistry — not danger. Trauma doesn’t just make you tolerate red flags. It trains you to chase them. Let me give you a real-life example from my practice (shared with permission, details changed for privacy): A woman I worked with kept getting involved with men who were emotionally distant — but spiritual on the surface. One man would pray with her on Monday… then ghost her by Friday. She stayed, hoping he’d change. Why? Because deep down, it wasn’t just about him. It was about a father who was present in the church… but absent in her emotional world. And when this man repeated that pattern, it felt like home. Until she did the healing work, she kept calling it “God’s process.” But really… it was unresolved trauma calling her back to familiar pain. The wilderness is lonely. Quiet. Uncomfortable. But sometimes God leads us there… not to punish us, but to heal our choosing pattern. To reset our nervous system. To remind us: You don’t need to earn love. You already are loved. Another one? In Genesis 29, Jacob loves Rachel — but gets Leah on the wedding night. He labors seven more years for love. Some of us are still laboring emotionally for someone who isn’t even ours to carry. But God never told you to work for love — He offered it freely. And until you receive His love as your anchor, you’ll keep chasing human connections that destabilize you. if you’re listening and ...

  • "GOD IS STILL WRITING MY STORY" - Let Faith Heal Your grief and Self Doubt

    "GOD IS STILL WRITING MY STORY" - Let Faith Heal Your grief and Self Doubt
    Jun 5 2025

    If you’ve ever asked, “Why wasn’t I enough for them to stay?” — this is for you. Because that question? It doesn’t just live in your thoughts. It sinks into your identity.

    In today’s episode, we’re talking about how grief, shame and self-doubt can quietly shape the way we see ourselves — our value, our relationships, even our connection with God.

    Shame and grief are heavy, hidden feelings that tells you: "There’s something wrong with me." It’s different from guilt — guilt says, “I did something wrong.” No — shame is deeper. It whispers, “I am what’s wrong.

    To unpack this tender and powerful topic, I’m joined by a beautiful soul — Mercia Strydom.

    Mercia shared how she lost her husband to cancer and the deep grief that followed—until she received God's comfort and healing.

    Hope this episode blesses you.

    Thank You! For listening/Watching.
