Selah, you are one of my best christian female singers (artist) of all time. At the same time, I really love and like your music and songs as well. Blessed and God bless🙏

The CHURCH is a hospital for the sinners and not a country club for the saints

[tammietodd]

Thank you, Amy, for your vulnerability and honesty, and for pointing people to Jesus for hope and healing!!!!

Dear Amy, You are totally beautiful and even more so when you sing. I found Selah several month ago and fell in love with all of you. You are my favorite group.

Amy, I love you and your beautiful voice. Thank you for using your talent for God and his people! ❤

[P-zzpw]

All I can say to this is:

1. What a voice!
2. What a gift!
3. Yes, you are much more than ‘a voice.’
4. This isn’t flattery because a gift is given 😌
5. You’re using it to God’s glory.

Wonderful testimony of God’s good grace. All of it.
Hallelujah 👑

I've been rejected, made fun of, criticized, and shamed in the same way this woman has ever since very young age, by none other than the so called Christian family members, just because I was the heaviest one in our entire family. I still struggle with so many food issues and emotional eating and starving, and anxiety. Everything that Amy said brought up so many emotions because of how similar it is to my life. Jesus is the ONLY one who has never left me.

[RaZulu]

You are so beautiful..because God made you like that. I listen to most of the songs you are such an inspiration to me, and thousands of others...AMEN..

[johnwang]

So authentic and beautiful testimony ❤ thank you Amy! May Christ bless you to enjoy freedom in Him in dealing with weight and food

[ThingsILove]

This is the second time this year I’ve heard a Christian woman say that a man “wants to take care of her”. Those are such sweet words!

[sharonwalters]

I’m extremely sorry. Most of us carry our insecurities and whatever inside of us. They don’t often show. And I thank God for your voice because it’s soothes my aching heart.

[JesusismyRock]

Amy is so beautiful. She looks like a model, and has a beautiful voice. I wish I could be in a group and sing like her. I do sing, but people in my family would make snide remarks, so I just gave up even trying to make it in the music world.

[PeaceOfGrace]

God raised Selah up, your music is Glorifying, thank you!

[laurievandenbos]

Thank you for your transparency Amy. This sounds a lot like my story. Jesus will heal me and set me free.

[jacquiroses]

You are just so gorgeous and also your personality and the way you speak. So many of us can so relate to your journey. Thankyou for sharing..we love you and your wonderful singing ♡

I can relate to this story. I was overweight struggling to overcome by my own will. One day I ended up running over myself with lawnmower. As I lay in the grass, I called out to Jesus. Within minutes I stopped bleeding, brushed myself off and fell to my knees. Still working on my weight, but w God, I know nothings impossible!👏🙏☀️

[sandriagutierrez]

I have battled weight for sooo many years. High school was horrible. Lost weight, gained it. I’m not a young women, it gets harder. One thing I’ve learned; it’s necessary for my health to Maintain a healthy weight for the sake of my family, and the people I serve. I do not want to seem judgmental, but we must learn to discipline ourselves, and not allow the flesh to rule us! Don’t set up camp there, keep fighting!

[marciahunter]

Amy, I have the same food addiction. Thank you for your testimony. You are an amazing singer. ❤

[laviniav]

Such a beautiful mesaj you are so beautiful inside out I always love to listen to your music

[julieolson]

This really helped me, as I am on a journey to overcome binge eating disorder. How good is my Father that I came across this. Just to see her confidence and joy in life, not having those tied to her size! I will take her advice and read Psalm 139 every day out loud!
