Called to Walk by Faith

From unexpected blessings and favorable test results to meaningful connections, restored relationships, and opportunities to encourage and pray with other women, I began to recognize that there was so much more happening around me than I could see at first.Sometimes, God's goodness shows up in ways we never anticipated. It may not always look like the breakthrough we're asking for, and it doesn't mean every journey will have the same outcome. But even in the hardest seasons, we are not forgotten, and we are never without His presence.Through Scripture, personal reflection, and honest conversation, we'll explore what it means to remain grateful, recognize God's hand in the everyday moments, and continue praising Him even when life doesn't look the way we hoped.You don't have to be on the other side of the storm to have a testimony. You can still have questions, experience pain, and face uncertainty while holding on to your Hallelujah.Scriptures referenced: Psalm 34:1, Habakkuk 3:17–18, 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18, 2 Corinthians 1:3–4, Romans 8:28, and Psalm 118:24.My prayer is that this conversation encourages you not to let the storm become the only part of your story you can see. Look for His goodness, recognize His presence, and never lose your Hallelujah.Thank you for spending this time with me.

It means we learn to bring those feelings to God rather than allowing them to consume us. Through Scripture, personal reflection, and an honest conversation about surrender, healing, prayer, and waiting on the Lord, we're reminded that our hope is not found in knowing what tomorrow holds, but in knowing the One who holds tomorrow.Whether you're facing a medical diagnosis, walking through a difficult season, or simply trying to make sense of the unknown, my prayer is that this conversation encourages you to keep your eyes on Jesus, lean into His promises, and remember that you never have to walk through life's challenges alone.Scriptures referenced: Psalm 27:1-5, Psalm 18:1-6, Psalm 55:22, Psalm 107:19-20, Exodus 15:26, Matthew 8:16-17, Isaiah 43:1-2, and Isaiah 40:31.You can be afraid and still have faith. You can have questions and still trust God. And you can walk through the fire without walking through it alone.*Correction: James 5:14-16 says ELDERS not leaders.Thank you for spending this time with me.

I'd love to hear from you! Send me fan mail here.Temptation is something every believer faces, yet it is often a conversation we avoid. But what happens in that space between the moment temptation knocks and the moment we decide whether to open the door?In this episode, we explore the difference between temptation and sin, the emotions and desires that battle within us, and how we can learn to respond through the power of the Holy Spirit rather than being led by our feelings.Even Jesus was tempted. In the wilderness, Satan came against Him, but Jesus stood firm, not through His own strength alone, but through the truth of God's Word. His example reminds us that we cannot wait until we are in the middle of the battle to build our foundation. We must be rooted in Scripture before temptation comes.Thank you for spending this time with me. If this episode spoke to your heart, share it with someone who may need encouragement today.

I'd love to hear from you! Send me fan mail here.There are seasons in life we never expect to find ourselves in. Seasons filled with questions, uncertainty, and moments where we wish we could see what God is doing ahead of us.But what happens when we cannot see the whole path?In this episode of Round Table Conversations with Yolimar, we explore what it truly means to walk by faith, not because we have every answer, but because we know the One who does.Through Scripture, reflection, and honest conversation, we are reminded that faith is not the absence of fear, questions, or uncertainty. Faith is choosing to trust God in the middle of them. It is believing that even when we cannot see the way forward, God is already there.Together, we will reflect on what it means to surrender our need for control, trust God's timing, and take the next faithful step even when the road ahead is unclear.If you find yourself in a season you never imagined, a season of waiting, uncertainty, or simply needing a reminder of God's faithfulness, this episode is for you.You do not need to know it all to trust Him.You do not need to see the whole path to follow Him.You only need to remember that the God who called you is the God who walks with you."For we live by faith, not by sight."  2 Corinthians 5:7 (NIV)Thank you for spending this time with me.

I'd love to hear from you! Send me fan mail here.In this episode of Round Table Conversations with Yolimar, we explore the quiet but powerful journey of learning how to ask, remain, and receive in our walk with God.Most of us are comfortable trying to figure life out on our own, pushing through, making plans, staying strong, and only turning to God when we feel we've run out of options. But what happens when we realize that striving isn't enough? When control starts to slip through our hands?This conversation gently invites us into a different way of living. A life marked not by self-sufficiency, but by surrender. Not just asking God for help, but learning to remain connected to Him in every season, before, during, and after the breakthrough.Through Scripture, reflection, and honest moments of self-awareness, this episode challenges us to consider what it really means to depend on God daily, and how transformation often happens in the space between asking and receiving.Thank you for spending this time with me.

I'd love to hear from you! Send me fan mail here.As children, many of us remember the excitement of waiting for someone we loved. Dressed, ready, watching through the window, counting down the minutes until they arrived.But do we have that same anticipation for the return of Jesus?In this episode of Round Table Conversations with Yolimar, we explore Jesus' parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins in Matthew 25 and what it means to "keep oil in your lamp" while we wait for the Bridegroom's return.Together, we'll walk through the powerful teachings of Matthew 24 and 25, including the Wise and Foolish Virgins, the Faithful and Unfaithful Servants, and the Sheep and the Goats. We'll discuss what true readiness looks like, why these parables bring both comfort and warning, and how we can live each day with faithful expectation rather than fear.Keeping oil in our lamps isn't about predicting when Jesus will return. It's about remaining connected to Him through faith, surrender, obedience, and intimacy. It's about living in such a way that if Christ returned today, our hearts would already be turned toward Him.This episode is both an encouragement and an invitation: stay ready, stay faithful, and keep your eyes fixed on the Bridegroom.Because the One we are waiting for is worth waiting for.Thank you for spending this time with me.

I'd love to hear from you! Send me fan mail here.In this deeply honest episode of Round Table Conversations with Yolimar, Yolimar opens up about what it means to surrender your life to God, not perfectly, but daily.Through personal testimony, scripture, and reflection, she shares how walking with Christ has required letting go of people-pleasing, old habits, unhealthy dependencies, and the version of herself that sought validation from the world instead of identity in God.This conversation explores: Spiritual transformation and renewing the mind  The loneliness that can come with obedience  Breaking free from worldly patterns  Choosing peace over performance  Why who you surround yourself with matters With scriptures from Romans 12, Titus 2, 2 Corinthians, and more, this episode is an invitation to stop conforming to the world and start allowing God to shape your heart, mind, and purpose.If you’ve been in a season of pruning, wilderness, or spiritual growth, this conversation will remind you that surrender is not punishment, it’s preparation.Thank you for spending this time with me.

I'd love to hear from you!

Written on the side was John 14:6.In that moment, I knew what I was asked to talk about.This episode is a heartfelt conversation about dependency on Jesus, the danger of placing our hope in anything above Him, and what it truly means to rededicate our lives to Christ, not just emotionally, but daily and fully.Together, we explore how Jesus is still the Way, the Truth, and the Life in a world full of distractions, noise, opinions, and misplaced devotion. Through Scripture, reflection, and encouragement, this episode is an invitation to return to the center: Jesus.Thank you for spending this time with me.

I'd love to hear from you! Send me fan mail here.In this episode of Round Table Conversations with Yolimar, we talk about what it truly means to have a relationship with God, not a “once in a while” connection, but a daily surrender and intentional pursuit of His presence.Inspired by a recent conversation and messages heard in church, this episode explores how often we give God leftover time while expecting Him to consistently provide, protect, guide, and sustain us. The truth is: God is not a once in a while God. He is always present, always faithful, and always working on our behalf.Together, we reflect on: Why intimacy with God requires intentional time  How transformation happens through consistent connection with Christ  The difference between knowing about God and truly knowing Him  Why we cannot radiate spiritual light apart from God  The powerful analogy between the sun and the moon — and what it teaches us about abiding in Christ This is not a message of shame or perfection. It’s an invitation to go deeper. Because the more time we spend with God, the more our hearts begin to change, our focus begins to shift, and our lives begin to reflect His glory.If you’ve been feeling spiritually distant, inconsistent, or hungry for more of God, this conversation is for you.Thank you for spending this time with me.
