How fear and change stir up anxiety and the need for control
How the Shepherd prepares the table and protects you, even when enemies surround you

When your child says they don’t want to live anymore, it feels like the valley of the shadow of death. Psalm 23:4 isn’t just words, it’s what we lived: “Even when I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.”
In this episode of Oopsy Daisy, Amanda shares her family’s battle with fear, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, and how the Good Shepherd carried them through the darkest times with His protection and presence. If you’ve wrestled with anxiety, depression, or just plain old hard times, this episode is a reminder that you’re not alone. The Good Shepherd walks with you through the valley.
You’ll hear:
That fear may grip you, but it can’t keep you
How the Good Shepherd’s rod and staff guard and protect
The truth that every valley has an entry and an exit

Why God's "right paths" often feel like circles

We’re starting a brand new series on Psalm 23, and in Part 1 we’re camping out in verse 1: “The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need.”
If you’re tired of carrying the weight of your own provision, anxious about what’s next, or worn out from trying to control every outcome, this verse is your lifeline. It’s not “I will have” someday... it’s “I have” right now. The Good Shepherd is already meeting your needs, even when it doesn’t look or feel the way you expected. And learning to be led by Him will change the way you see every season of your life.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
The difference between being comfortable & being cared for
How fear keeps us from depending fully on God
How to quit "anxious praying" and lean on His promises
