  • You Can Have My Heart | Surrendering Fully to God
    Oct 28 2025

    Welcome back to another powerful episode of the And Such Is Life Podcast, hosted by Jakyra McLeod.🙌

    In this episode, Jakyra sits down with special guest Gabrielle Brooks for a heartfelt conversation titled “You Can Have My Heart.” Drawing from Deuteronomy 6:5, they explore what it truly means to surrender one’s heart to God — yielding our will, desires, and plans to His divine purpose.
