All Through His Name by Melanie R.

All Through His Name by Melanie R.

I stand before My Lord to thank Him.

For who He is,
for all that He has done.

He took on all the world's burdens,

Sacrificed,
victory was won!

He gave up His life to save me,
when I couldn't save myself!

When I suffered, it wasn't forsaken.

A knowing where I belong.

I’m singing hallelujah for My Lord-
all day long…
Hallelujah!
Ooh…
Through all of the surgeries.
The pain of rare disease,
disability,
the enduring suffering-

He gave me strength!
lifts me up!,
renewed my spirit!

His name that will reign!!

I came alive through the name of Christ.

Jesus saved me.

It’s all through His name.

There is healing in The Name!
Mighty healing & Be blessed by The Name above all!

More blessed messages/songs of healing on my YouTube:Melanie’s Melody or DM me and I can share the song to this poem or any others that have hit your spirit.

Thank you!🙏🏻🤺💪🏻👑

🎯 Anxiety Is a Message—Here’s How to Listen

Most people try to escape anxiety… but what if it’s actually trying to teach you something?

Your mind might be sending a signal—maybe you’re unprepared, in the wrong environment, or too focused on what others think.

Instead of pushing it away, pause and listen.

Anxiety can guide growth—if you let it. 💭💡

What's something unhelpful someone has said to you when discussing your health?

Sharing our experiences and seeking support, guidance, or understanding can be incredibly validating—especially in moments of uncertainty or isolation. But sometimes, the responses we get from others can be disappointing, hurtful, or even harmful (even if unintentional).

Has someone ever said something that wasn’t helpful when you opened up about your health? What was it?

Love in your life

It’s completely natural and deeply human to want love and connection. But the real growth comes when you learn to honor that need without abandoning yourself to meet it. If you find yourself constantly proving your worth, chasing validation, or shrinking just to keep someone close, pause and ask: Is this love costing me my peace?

Instead, shift the focus inward. Practice showing yourself the love you’re seeking. Strengthen your boundaries. Build your self-worth from the inside out. That way, when love arrives, it won’t be something you beg for—it’ll be something you recognize as aligned.

You deserve relationships where you’re celebrated, not tolerated. Start by treating yourself that way first.

Who or what do you need to let go of to make room for that kind of love?

~ Thanks to all. Thanks for all. ~

What’s the biggest compliment someone can give you and why?

We all have something we’re good at (yes, this includes you too!). 😊 And receiving a compliment based on those things — a talent, a skill, a personality trait — can mean the world.

What’s the biggest compliment someone can give you that would mean a lot? Why is that?

For Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks , the biggest compliment she can get is someone telling her they enjoy her company. She loves to know that she is valued is the spaces that she’s in.

I am worthy of __________.

Hi, Mighty friends! 🫶

Even when our health or circumstances make some days — or every day — feel challenging, we still deserve gentle reminders, encouraging messages, and affirmations. We have value, and we are worthy of good things.

Finish this sentence: I am worthy of __________.

Sending extra love your way today! 💌

Your Mental Health Comes First—Here’s Why That’s Not Selfish

We’ve all heard it on airplanes: “Put your own mask on before helping others.”
But how often do we actually apply that to our everyday lives?

In this short video, I break down why prioritizing your own mental health isn’t selfish—it’s essential. If you're feeling depleted from constantly helping others, this is your reminder: you can’t pour from an empty cup.

Say no when you need to. Rest when you're tired. Heal yourself before you try to save the world.
