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.

Together, they unpack the challenges of trusting God’s timing, learning patience through the process, and staying faithful when life feels uncertain. Gabby and Jakyra also discuss: 💭 Recognizing when we’re holding back from God through fear or control 💬 The importance of vulnerability and honest prayer — even in anger or pain ❤️ How God meets us in our brokenness and never turns away

They highlight King David as a model of a heart fully surrendered — a man after God’s own heart who walked in humility, repentance, and transparency.

The episode closes with a moving reminder that you are never too far gone for God’s love. Gabby ends with a heartfelt prayer, asking God to help listeners surrender fully, trust His will, and rest in His transforming love.
