I would love to challenge 19 other nurses to match my gift today. I believe that there are that many nurses out in the listening community feel that they were called by God into the nursing profession. Along with all of technical skills and knowledge, true caring for people and compassion comes from the Holy Spirit. Nurses are able to impact our patients and families lives in the darkest times and joyous times. I only found KLRC a few months ago. It was playing at a car wash of all things in Centerton. I haven't changed the station since. It just makes my spirit full of joy as I listen. Thank you for all you do!
I turned 30 this year and have been listening to KLRC since I was 10 years old. KLRC has been with me through the lowest lows in my life thus far: through infertility, then pregnancy, anxiety, depression, panic attacks that last hours at a time, loss of family members, and just some plain hard days. I've had too many right song at the right time moments where Jesus battles with me and I'm so incredibly grateful for KLRC providing that lifeline when I'm feeling alone, even with a full roster of supporting family and friends. Thank you for being the hands, feet, and mouths of Jesus in our broken world. We truly love you!
In the last two years my family has faced so many challenges (being struck by the May 2024 tornado), the unexpected cancer diagnosis and sudden death of my father-in-law and what felt like so many other (seemingly) minor inconveniences that added insult to injury and lots of emotional exhaustion in our time of sorrow. We were blessed with the welcome, unexpected addition of our fourth daughter who was due four days before the death anniversary of my father-in-law and I know her life is a precious gift from the Lord who redeemed such a hard time of year and showed us joy after a year of chaos and heartache. She was born four weeks early and incredibly healthy, praise God! Whenever this song comes on the radio it feels like an exhale and brings calm to my soul. I know people have been praying so deeply for us in this season (and before, too)! It is a reminder that for all of my days I have been prayed for, even if I didn’t realize it, and I know those prayers have been answered during every season of my life even if I didn’t see where God was leading me in different times. My greatest blessings and answered prayers are the gift of my incredible husband, moving throughout the country that provided beautiful relationships including making NWA home and four daughters (my dream was always to have three girls — four is the greatest blessing). I love this so and hope it is played often! I am going to see Ben in concert this week and cannot wait! I know Someone must have been praying for me.
God is the most high in my life and will always be there to guide me even through the hardest things. Sunday I went home for my birthday and God really hit my heart with the worship music the church was playing. I have been through so much and I hope this story will encourage others to believe in Jesus Christ. When I was younger, I was put into foster care. After a couple of years, God put me into a family that has a lot of people that continuously love and care for me. After getting adopted I had some legal trouble. Thankfully, I have a family that has and will always fight for me and do anything in their power to help me through tough situations. After going to JDC I came back with a mindset of changing but I let the devil take control of me and I caught more legal trouble. After being in JDC two times the second time my family found me a facility that helped me through my struggles. I am currently living in a group home and I am still able to see my family. I hope my story will help others going through the same thing. Remember God loves you and will never give up on you he is forgiving and loyal. May God bless you.
My husband made his outward profession of faith in baptism yesterday afternoon. It's a prayer I've been praying for for a long time and that prayer was answered. God's timing is everything. My husband met Jesus at a youth camp when he was younger but was never baptized until yesterday. My heart is overflowing with joy and gratitude. He never forgets us, it's always God's timing not ours.
I tried every way possible to avoid my calling, but God said wrong!
In Kindergarten and my whole childhood I wanted to be a teacher. But by the time I got to college I had talked myself out of it. I tried pre-med and didn’t love it. I finally settled on Health and Human performance though maybe a PE coach or in OT/PT setting. I ended up getting a PE assistant job right out of college just trying to pass time to decide what I wanted to do. Three days into the job they needed a first grade teacher. I had one day to shadow and decide. I knew this was God telling me to stop avoiding. I took the job, fell in love and just started my 8th year teaching first grade.
Today, I’m two years sober. Two years ago, I was broken. Addiction had taken everything from me, including my children. I remember the pain of not being able to see them, and when I did, it was only for an hour or two in a park with supervision. I felt like I had lost everything that mattered. In that brokenness, I finally surrendered. I stopped trying to control what I couldn’t, and I gave it to God. I let go, and I let Him in and everything changed.
Today, I get to see my kids every single day. I wake them up for school in the morning, and I tuck them in every night. I get to show up for them — not just physically, but fully present and sober. That’s a gift I never take for granted. God has used me to help others take the step to get clean.
This life I have today isn’t because I’m strong — it’s because I gave up trying to do it alone. I surrendered, and God did the rest.
My mom died of colon cancer when I was 3 and my dad died of an overdose when I was 9. My grandma raised my disabled sister and I, although she was very sick at that time. I lived in fight or flight my entire life, being fogged with grief. In adulthood things turned from tragic to miserable. I cried for help on every way, always finding my way back to the Lord. And that's the only thing I've ever done worth talking about. I'm 10 months sober of meth, 3 months sober of nicotine vape, and 3 days clean of THC. My whole life I just wanted to feel better. I thank God for giving the people who's prayed for me. I thank the Lord for helping me through the unbelief. Thankfully, for the first time in my life. I am okay. Every day, God removes more fog. Thank you God for where I am, I am a single mom of a 5 year, embracing the blessings of singleness.
Recently I went through a minor depression. I let the enemy plant feelings of unworthiness & disappointment in myself and I have not been attending church. I am a sheep that has wandered off the path. I know the Christian life has ups and downs, thankfully I have some medicine that is helping with the depression. Please pray I can continue to live my life as God would want me to live and return back to church.
Please pray for me as I travel across Arkansas as Miss Arkansas Teen USA 2025. I’ve spent the past three years competing in pageants with my greatest supporters, my family, cheering me on every step of the way. In February 2025, my world changed forever when I lost my dad to suicide. That moment didn’t just break my heart it reshaped my purpose. My platform, Suicide is Not an Option, was born out of heartbreak but it’s fueled by hope. It’s a promise to speak up, to raise awareness, to start conversations that save lives. Whether it’s through one event, one post, or one heartfelt moment, I will continue to advocate every single day because every second matters. My walk with God has been my anchor, reminding me that even in the midst of grief, there is grace. I know my dad, a man of deep faith and devotion would be proud of the mission I’ve taken on. He raised me to lead with heart, and I know he’s with me every step of the way. Thank you for praying.
This past Saturday, my brother and I attended the Faith & Freedom Festival in Kansas, Oklahoma. What an incredible day — from the uplifting music and powerful message to the fellowship that filled the air. Near the end of the evening, a speaker (Joe?) gave a message that struck a chord. He said something along the lines of:
“If you left here and got in a wreck… would you be heading to the gates of heaven or hell?”
We had no idea how soon that message would become so real.
At 10 PM, we left the event. My brother — a seasoned Harley rider of over 20 years — put on his helmet and took off on his motorcycle. I followed behind him in my vehicle, something I never do, but I felt strongly led to that night.
As we drove down Hwy 116 on a sharp curve, a car came into his lane. To avoid a collision, my brother swerved and laid the bike down. He slid along the road, and his motorcycle caught the post of a road sign. His head also skimmed alongside the post, which slung the bike back around, spinning it to face the direction he came from — just feet before a concrete culvert in the ditch.
Had he gone just a little farther, the outcome could’ve been tragic.
But God intervened.
He walked away with only a mild concussion, cuts, and bruises — no broken bones, no internal injuries, no hospital stay. Just the undeniable covering of divine protection.
The next day, he told me that moment reignited his faith. He repeated the words the man on stage had said, now with a whole new understanding of their weight and truth. He knows without a doubt: God was with him.
We’re giving God all the glory. He is our protector, our redeemer, and the One who meets us even in the ditch. 🙌
Praise: I recently went to Bible Camp. I can't believe how fun it is there, and the people there are awesome. My church group went there with 26 kids, and 6 of them accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. I met one new friend that I definitely wouldn't have known otherwise. This camp has changed my walk with Jesus tremendously.
