Episode #28 Were You A Lonely Man? Love Letters From Heaven with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Ep #28 Were You A Lonely Man? Love Letters From Heaven with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Does the Savior understand heartache, loss and grief? In this podcast, Karyn shares some of the secrets of her heart in the form of "Scripting & Songwriting" with those who have experienced the sorrow of having a broken heart on any level and to any degree.

"Coming Unto Christ" means bringing each and every heartache, grief, loss and longing to the One who knows the depths of sorrow in a much deeper than any of us will ever know.

This episode begins with one of the first songs Karyn wrote after getting on her knees and asking the question that began her songwriting experience again at age 28. Her question, "Were You A Lonely Man?" has prompted Karyn to turn to Christ during every challenge following the answer she was given in Song. Since then, songs have continuously poured out of her heart in steady streams, day after day, always leaving her with a sense of hope, encouragement and peace.

Karyn's hope is that the questions she has asked the Lord throughout the years, which have resulted in her script-writings and lyrics, will bless those who stand in need of comfort during the crucial times in their lives.

Episode #25 Celebrating God's Love with Storytelling, Song & Scent with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Friday Jun 25, 2021

Ep #25 Celebrating God's Love with Storytelling, Song & Scent with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

In this episode of “The Stories She Sings”, Karyn continues by “Celebrating The Pure Love of Christ with Storytelling, Song & Scent", which is an extension of last weeks episode/podcast.

In the introduction of this episode, "Celebrating the Pure Love of Christ", Karyn shares the beauty of adding aromatherapy with the oils of the bible to your morning or evening meditation practice

She also encourages you to bring your journal and “script” the ideas that come into your mind as you ponder and meditate on the stories and songs.

Now, get comfortable and begin to "Breathe deeply as you listen and enjoy this musical journey into the lives of the women who walked and talked with Him in Ancient Days...

Questions to Ponder:

#1 Forgotten Love – Story and Song

As I ponder my relationship with the Lord, do I feel a closeness to Him, now? Am I yearning for His rightful place in my heart to find a sense of sweet renewal? What can I do to create a closer connection with Christ in my morning, afternoon or evening meditations by incorporating more scripture study, meaningful prayer and reminiscing upon the joyful experiences I have had in the past or present by “Coming Unto Christ”?

#2 Dust From the Divine – Story and Song

How can I become more childlike in my relationship with the Savior? What gift can I visualize the Savior giving to my little child-like self ; the child of God within my soul , to remind me of His perfect, pure and precious love for me? If the Savior could whisper words of comfort to my heart now, what words can I imagine Him whispering to me now?

#3 One Perfect Heart – Am I more like Mary or Martha in the New Testament? Do I feel the need to busy myself without accepting the gift of respite at the Savior’s feet? How can I create a meaningful space and time in my life each morning, noon or night - in which to experience more personal one-on-one time with His Spirit?

#4 The Pearl of Perfection – What is Mary of Bethany’s message which I feel directed towards through her story and song as I listen today? How am I like Mary of Bethany? How would I like to become more like her?

#5 The Widow’s Might – How can I give my heart, my mind, my “might” to the Savior; even as the widow in the New Testament gave her very last “mite” to Him? In what ways am I spiritually wealthy? Do I feel emotionally wealthy in simply knowing that the Lord loves me with His heart, might, mind and strength?

#6 The Simple Truth - How has my life changed (or how would I like my life to change for the better) by knowing how deeply loved I am by the Savior Jesus Christ? If I truly believe that the Savior knows my heart, sees my hidden wounds and knows the secrets of my very own soul; how can that help me to gain renewed hope in my personal life? Is there anyway in my own personal life that I need extra strength through the atonement of Jesus Christ right now? What burden am I willing to drop at His feet so that I can “bear a song away”today?

#7 – The Prince of Peace – As I listen to this testament of divine friendship that Mary of Magdala had for the Savior, I can ponder the following thoughts and write my own feelings down. How am I willing to stand as a witness for Christ when other’s turn away from Him? How can I share my personal witness of Him with those who may be doubting His reality?

#8 – Precious in His Sight – Have I ever experienced a mighty change of heart in my life by experiencing the Savior’s pure love for me? Although I may have made mistakes in my past, am I willing to show greater love for Him today? Do I have a personal conviction that the Savior’s love for me is flawless, unchanging, perfect and enduring now and forever? Am I willing to continuously feel His welcoming arms open and ready to receive me? Am I doing anything to push away His perfect love for me now?

#9 Water into Wine – What miracles have I seen in my life that I know are directly related to my relationship with the Savior Jesus Christ? In what areas of my life do I stand ready to co-create miracles with Him according to my faith in Him? What weakness(es) do I have that I would like Him to turn into strengths for me as I continuously seek to drop my burden at His feet?

Episode #24 Getting God's Divine Perspective of YOU! with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Monday Jun 21, 2021

Ep #24 Getting God's Divine Perspective of YOU! with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

We can't always get a clear perspective on our own life by looking through the hazy view of our own foggy perspective. This is why prayerful self-introspection is such a necessary thing to do!

Karyn encourages her listeners to come to these podcasts with a journal and pen in hand with essential oils close by. As you listen, take a deep breath in of your favorite essential oils! Write the things that come to your mind as you ponder and process your own heartfelt feelings pertaining to the subject of the day!

Getting out of one's "comfort zone" can be painful especially if you feel your comfort zone is padded with your own insecurities . Release the fear of exploring your options as you for God's divine perspective on your life --- Now, graciously and gratefully, accept His point of View! (His divine perspective is usually far more merciful than our very own!)

Take time to regroup and refashion your SELF as you redefine and redesign the better version of your SELF with God as your Life Coach!

Episode #23 Likening the Women of Scriptures Unto Yourself with Storytelling, Song & Scent with Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Friday Jun 18, 2021

Ep #23 Likening The Scriptures Unto Yourself with Storytelling & Songs" with Karyn Lynn Grant

As we read the scriptures, we can do more than simply let our eyes scan the words that travel across the pages; we can let those words become messages that sink into the depths of our souls. We can liken them unto ourselves.

As Karyn discovered her passion for her early morning scripture study, at age fifteen, her passion grew into a time for "scripting" sweet journal entries where she envisioned and imagined how each woman might have felt; as she put herself into each setting found in ancient days. One by one the stories and songs were written...

"About My Father's Business" Story and Song #1 - Beginning with Mary's experience with fearing she had lost her son, Jesus, Karyn visualized what it might have been like for Mary, the Mother of Jesus, when he said to her, "Mother, wist ye not that I shall be "About my Father's Business"?

Question: Who can better understand our hearts than Mary, the Mother of Jesus, when we fear we have lost a child to death, to sin or to the sorrows of this world?

"Child of Truth" Story & Song #2, In the next portion of this podcast, Karyn further shares what Mary, the Mother of Jesus might have been felt as she stood at the edge of the River Jordan at the time of the Savior's baptism. Karyn shares her visualization of what Mary might have felt, in storytelling and song, in her ponderings she has entitled, "Child of Truth".

Question: What joy might a nameless woman have felt on her baptism day, being born into the kingdom while following the Savior's example into those waters?

"In the Wilderness", Song & Story #3, Karyn envisions what Mary might have felt and expressed pertaining to her Son's ability to "Be of Good Cheer" while overcoming the world and receiving the grace and strength to follow in His footsteps along the path of Salvation while overcoming temptation.

"In His Loving Arms", Song & Story #4, Karyn ponders what any nameless woman, in Ancient Days, might have felt who may have struggled alone to climb the hill that led to Jesus' sermon on the mount while carrying her baby and shepherding her other little ones... (written during Karyn's experience as a single mother.)

Question: How can I show greater trust in the Lord as I place my child (children) in His loving arms when it is difficult for me to trust that their Father in Heaven knows best.

"Sermon on the Mount", Story and Song #5 ,Karyn meditates on the lone and nameless woman who immersed herself in the Savior's love while drinking in the beatitudes on the mount where He spoke sermons to the multitude. What might she have felt if she were doing all within her power to follow Him while carrying a silent burden buried in her heart....

Question: How would it feel to take my own silent burden to the Lord and drink in His peace and promise --- knowing that I am doing all in my power to love Him with all my heart, might, mind and strength during times of personal trial and affliction?

"Love Your Enemy", Story and Song #6 becomes a guided visualization for the nameless woman who may have knelt at the foot of His cross and learned by His merciful example, how to love and forgive her enemy.

Question: How can I offer my broken heart to the Lord and ask Him to bless me with the miracle of forgiveness; for my own mistakes, follies and errors in judgments and for those of the one "knows not what he does"?

Remembering the Savior's words upon the cross, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do..." can bring the sweetest release for any soul suffering from the hurtful actions, words or deeds of another.

"Trim Your Lamp" Story & Song #7 - Karyn reflects upon her own times of neglecting her scripture study and the sorrow that brought her heart and the joy of keeping her personal divine appointment with the Lord each morning. Experiencing times of neglect has only further substantiated in Karyn's life, her personal need to "Seek the Lord early while He may be found.".

Question: How can I do better in keeping my divine appointment with the Lord so that I can continually "trim my lamp" with the oil of joy and gladness?

"The Morning Light" - Story & Song #8 - Visualize yourself as the woman in this song. Imagine what it might feel like to rise up early in the morning to seek the Lord's spirit at the start of each new day. How would it bless other's along the way?

Question: What joy might it bring, what peace to one's heart, what comfort to one's soul might be afforded if the practice of a "Daily Divine Appointment" could be devotedly kept with the Lord each new morning?

"He is My Savior Too" - Story & Song #9 - Letting this message into your heart can bless your heart as you fully embrace the realization that the Savior's love belongs to you. He is your Savior too!

Question: What love, joy and peace could I possibly feel in deeper measure if I allowed myself to more fully receive the gift of the Savior's infinite love for me too?

How might it bless my life to receive the Gift of His Atonement in my behalf rather than deny the Giver the Joy of bestowing His Gift of Mercy to me?

Episode #22 If It's Not Eternal; It's Too Short by Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Sunday Jun 13, 2021

Ep #22 If It's Not Eternal; It's Too Short by Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach - "Take Time for Soul Searching: Taking a Respite from The World"

There are times where we all need to take a respite from the world and do some deep "spring cleaning" in our very own heart, mind, body and spirit!

In this episode Karyn shares some thoughts and scriptures that extend the call for deeper personal reflection on the inner world of the spirit. There are many points to ponder including "The Pure Love of Christ vs. The Lust of the Flesh".

Far too often, our lives become so busy with the "rhetoric" of our busy schedules that we may find ourselves overlooking the need to re-connect to our very own souls in a much deeper way; especially, spiritually and emotionally.

Taking a "respite from world" can be a good thing! Creating a "time out" for oneself can afford each one of us a chance to spend more time in meditation, prayer and pondering about our soul purpose. We can use this time to journal deeper and get to the "heart of the matter".

Are you experiencing loneliness for a deeper spiritual connection that you long to have with God? In this episode, Karyn shares excerpts from her own personal pondering, her need to ask herself deeper questions.

Asking ourselves questions can result in a spiritual and emotional cleanse from emotional toxicities that have been building up inside.

Listen to this podcast if you are ready to begin asking yourself more questions and getting to the root of the issue that may be blocking your joy.

Note: The end result to become willing to ask yourself introspective questions and to take the time to listen intuitively to your own answers is that you just might end up clearing a path for more love, more joy and more inner peace!

Herein this podcast, Karyn asks herself questions like:

1. What is the pure love of Christ vs. the lust of the flesh?

2. Has the ministering of angels ceased in my life and if so, what can I release so that I can enjoy the gift of spiritual experiences?

3. Have miracles ceased in my life and if so, how may I begin claiming them again?

4. How can I achieve inner peace on a deeper soul-satisfying level?

5. What attitudes can I release to the Lord so that I may experience a greater softening of the Spirit?

And many more!

Episode #21 Exchange Your "Scarcity" Currency for the "Abundance" Currency of the Lord by Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Friday Jun 11, 2021

Ep. #21 - Exchange Your "Scarcity" Currency for the "Abundance" Currency of the Lord by Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Karyn shares through songwriting and storytelling, how you can apply for a fullness of joy to be added to your spiritual, emotional, mental and temporal "bank accounts!"

Rejoice in the knowledge that you can go through a "spiritual conversion" process and experience higher vibrations of love, joy and peace as you Connect to Christ through Storytelling, Scriptures, Songs & Scents!

Each time you hear a song on Karyn's podcasts, use your oils and breathe in deeply; allowing your mind to visualize the scenes that come into your mind. Breathe in and out -- allowing any unhappy emotions to ride out of the body and open your heart, mind and body to feel yourself making an "exchange" of lower vibration emotions (currencies) into higher vibrations (frequencies) of love, joy, faith, hope and happiness!)

Bask in this joyful, uplifting, podcast by pondering the following questions:

1. In what areas of my life do I lack in my faith that God can create greater spiritual, emotional, mental and even temporal Abundance (love, joy and peace) in my life?

2. What does the Lord mean when the scriptures state; "In Me ye shall have Life more Abundantly?" (Spiritually, Emotionally, Mentally and even Financially!)

3. If lower vibration emotions have resulted in scarcity issues (thoughts, beliefs and value systems) rooted in my mind, heart and body; when would I be willing to exercise even a particle of faith so that I can begin to "prosper in the Lord" emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually and temporally, now?

4. Now, "Script" (journal) a brighter vision of a joyful future for yourself by answering the following question: How can I continue to connect, creatively and consciously to the Savior and begin setting into motion His wonderful plans for my joyful future?

5. How can I co-create greater joy in my future? What am I willing (eager) to do now in order to "ask, seek and knock" in order to receive that which I righteously desire?

5. What is the "New Life" that I wish to claim through my faith in Jesus Christ; emotionally, spiritually, physically, temporally and mentally now?
