Hi, my name is Shelley and I'm a mother of three. I've been struggling with bad things for the last year. I lost my husband and my only sibling within 2 months of each other. I have been struggling ever since, but the last 58 days I've been clean and sober. I'm just going to say that if it wasn't for God I probably wouldn't be here now. I know my babies need me, and I just wanted to thank you guys for all your uplifting stories. I'm listening to Christian music now... I was never really into it, but I love it now. I love you all!
The biggest “God moment” I’ve had was when I was at rock bottom, and Robert shared about an article that explained why just having the courage to get out of bed on your darkest days was an act of worship. That was a major turning point for me, and I still think about that almost daily.
When my grandson was little and would come to visit from Oklahoma City, he would love to stand at my back door which was glass and look outside. He would smear his little hand prints and slobber all over it. I normally wouldn't stand for such a mess but after he would go home I always left those sweet smears and slobbers there until I knew he was coming back. Every time I looked at it, I remembered him standing there and my heart was full.
My half-sister has had mental issues her entire life and because of that, she's had to be institutionalized most of her life. This past week, while my mom was visiting with her, it was as if my sister's mind was clear for the first time in ages. My mom and her had a heart to heart conversation that my sister was fully aware of and in the moment for. It was a special gift from God for my mom to receive this moment. Almost like a glimpse of what heaven will be like.
Our family is so incredibly grateful for KLRC and has been listening for several years, since our oldest son who was probably 4 years old and fell in love with the music and messages shared on KLRC. Not long after, I decided to give a single gift to KLRC during the fundraiser, and I remember a space at the bottom of the online form asking if there was anything I wanted the KLRC team to pray for. I can distinctly recall typing my request "for the spiritual growth of our family." While at the time, we had a strong faith, we did not have a church home, and I knew we had a lot of growing to do spiritually. I had no idea how God would move in our lives, work through KLRC and answer that prayer in the years to follow. But it brings tears to my eyes now to share that we have come so far in our spiritual journey. A little over a year ago, we found our church home. And last fall, our entire family: myself, my husband and our 2 boys (ages 6 and 9) were all baptized. KLRC has been a HUGE part of our spiritual journey, impacts our lives daily, and I know our spiritual growth is in such large part due to that prayer request years ago that continues to be answered today. THANK YOU SO MUCH to all at KLRC for the amazing work you do impacting lives everyday!
God knows his children and knows who needs these songs and the work that the KLRC team does for our community. How blessed are we? God has worked in so many ways for my family. This week, I have listened to the fundraiser each day. On Wednesday, my brother-in-law donated a kidney so that my father-in-law could receive a kidney that he desperately needed. My step son was approved through Arkansas Children's Hospital to receive the new cochlear implants that he needs to hear (without them, he is deaf). Yesterday, during the storms that hit our area, my husband was flying in from being with his dad & brother in Georgia. God landed his plane safely and our family was together again! If there was ever a time that I felt God's love and presence, this was it! This week God has held me and I know that he is holding my brothers and sisters in this loving community as well. Thank you KLRC!
I am a high school student and I really struggle with depression and anxiety and KLRC helps to keep me going and stay positive through hard times. I feel like I am always alone and unwanted, but KLRC is the positive light on my day and makes me truly feel like God is there and wants me for who I am.
I struggle significantly with anxiety and listening to KLRC helps lessen the anxiety. Recently at night my oldest asks me to turn on KLRC so that they can fall asleep listening to the music. We take turns singing on the way to school. Sometimes they get to hear their favorite song on the way to school which they love. This radio station is literally healing for me and my babies. Thank you KLRC and everyone who donates. ❤️❤️💗💗
I have had some pretty heavy medical issues pop up. I don't work outside of the home (disabled --- why is that so hard to say instead of what I put first?). My kids are all grown, so I rarely am in the car. I've recently started physical therapy and so of course, I turn the radio on, on my drive there and back. 90.9 KLRC has often been a source of encouragement and comfort in the past, through inspirational stories and the great music you play. So naturally, I turn the station to you guys and so many songs resonated with all of these heavy emotions I've been feeling. They have been a form of prayer when I can't quite find the words myself. And then during your fundraising you mentioned your prayer wall. I didn't even know that was a thing! And I've had something private in my life (aside from medical issues) that I really needed to feel I wasn't alone in and your prayer wall gave me the opportunity to ask for fellow listeners to join me in petitioning God to answer my prayers. You're a blessing every day and I'm thankful for your positive influence in our community.
