Send us a text On today's episode Crystal helps us understand why hard things or hard times come into our life. We first talk about the ways we handle those times. She gives us 5 different reasons/possibilities we are facing those hard times or hard things that come into our life. First, We are in a spiritual battle. Second, God allows that hard thing to come in our life. We see this in Job's life. Third, By our own doing, by own choices, Jonah is a perfect example. Fourth, We reap what others sowed. As children we reap what our parents sowed. Fifth, Life is just so darn hard. In this life we will have troubles. The next time something hard comes into your life or if you find yourself in a hard situation right now. Ask God to reveal to you. · God why has this hard thing, or hard time come into my life? · God which of these 5 reasons is it? Is it any of these reasons at all? · Write down what God reveals to you in your journal. · Pray over what God reveals to you. God loves us in our running days, and in our not so running days too. · This too shall pass, & brighter days are ahead. · No Thing is too hard for God.

Send us a text I still remember the night I whispered a childish prayer for my future husband, never imagining the profound journey it would spark—a journey that led me to confront my deepest fears and finally say, 'No More Running.' In a candid sharing of my story, we walk through the transformative power of facing God's callings head-on, inspired by Mary the mother of Jesus. As I open up about once dreading the thought of marrying a preacher, you'll see how my tale weaves into the broader tapestry of embracing divine assignments with courage. This episode is a heartfelt rally cry for those of us who've felt the pull to run when our purpose becomes clear. By examining how Mary's faith during her visitation and subsequent blessing from Elizabeth bolstered her resolve, we'll uncover the strength that comes from steadfast belief in God's plan. It's more than a personal narrative; it's a supportive guide for women wrestling with their potential, offering a glimpse into an exciting new venture designed to coach and uplift. Join me, Crystal Loyd, as we transition from avoidance to engagement, stepping confidently into the roles we're called to fulfill with trust and belief.

Send us a text Have you ever caught yourself running away from a challenge, only to realize that what you're avoiding could be your greatest opportunity for growth? That's exactly where I found myself, trading the comfort of a banking career for the uncertainty of following my true calling. This episode of No More Running is a heart-to-heart about taking courageous leaps toward intentional living and spiritual alignment. Hear my story as we tackle the pressing need to embrace life's difficulties and uncover the transformative power of faith and intention in overcoming them. What needs to be cut off or pruned in your life, in your 2024? What needs to go in your life? Sometimes the old needs to be cut off to make way for the new in your life. Maybe at one time it did bear fruit but now it doesn’t and it’s causing you to die mentally/to die spiritually/to die financially, to die more and more every day. Maybe there is something that God is waiting for you to cut out/off to give you something better, because he has a better plan. Expect to leave this episode with a renewed spirit, ready to let some things go, and cut off the things that are standing in between you and God.
