Shadowing Practice: Loving God will change your life - Learn English Speaking with Video

Hi guys, I think this is the first time that I have my belly out in a YouTube video.

I'm full term pregnant.

My baby can come any day right now.

So I'm very excited.

I'm gonna let it all happen naturally and wait for my baby's time. So...

yeah everything's really good on that front.

I wanted to make this video

because over the weekend I had met one of my male subscribers

and we had a very interesting conversation because he came up to me, he said he loves my videos and he did say, he's like Liz I don't want to offend you but I want to ask you something and he said

I come from an abusive childhood.

Because of my childhood, that made me really resent God and resent religion.

And he said, "When I hear you talk about God in your videos, I get a little envious because why do you still believe in God?

I don't understand how you can still have faith."

people that feel the same way as I do.

So that's why I'm making this video.

So if you see this, this is for you.

The first thing that changed my relationship with God is I stopped seeing God through the eyes of fear.

And I started seeing God through the eyes of love.

My dad taught me to fear God and he used that as a tactic to scare me and to keep me controlled.

He was always reinforcing that whatever I do I will go to hell and constantly only talking about hell.

I never felt free because of that.

I felt like I was in a prison.

And one day I just started to decide to start loving God.

And genuinely thinking of God as my best friend, instead of someone that wants to send me to hell for eternity.

So then I started viewing God as if He just loves me.

What if hell is a state of mind?

What if heaven is a state of mind?

You know, when God says like in religion, for example, you have to pray or come to me and you'll go to heaven.

Right now I know that if I pray and if I ask God for things, I will get it and my life will feel like heaven.

My life will feel magical.

So my state of mind, I am living in heaven and in paradise already.

Way with different people that indulge in addictions.

I think imagine you have your vessel, right?

This is your body.

And this is your house for your soul to live in.

And imagine you're indulging in all these different things and you're putting all these substances inside of your body constantly.

this will not be a nice place for your soul to be in

so your soul will not want to be in your body

and what happens then is you can attract a lot of different entities that can

be around you because your soul is not comfortable and you're not treating your body with respect

or love you should treat your body as if someone that you love

so you should be really like do i want to put this inside of me

or am i trying to run something you know

Addictions are so

interesting to me because I've been around a lot of people

that have a lot of addictions and I've always tried to help them but

never really worked because I feel like an addiction you have to break yourself.

No one can really help them.

when you see the people

indulge in that it's so sad to see people you love completely wither away

because of the addiction if you view what god is saying like don't do this

or whatever i think if you view that with love And like, oh, you know, God cares about me.

and that's why I shouldn't do these things, not because I'm gonna go to hell.

Then you already create such a more beautiful life for yourself

and you start viewing God as someone that wants the best for you, that is looking out for you.

Also think that knowing that God loves you, God is always there with you, gives you a stronger sense of self -worth.

And I really struggled growing up a lot with my self -worth.

I literally had none, confidence, none, nothing.

I actually had to go to therapy to really work on my confidence, work on my self -worth and work on settling boundaries with people

because I always felt like I always feel bad for people

and because of that I was people pleasing too much and believe me if you are an empath

and you have too much empathy for people, people will play with you.

They just think you're stupid.

Truly.

In my life, I've seen it.

People could literally pull me around their finger like this.

I would believe anyone.

I was super naive.

So I was always put into situations in life where I was shown

that I couldn't trust too many people or I was getting betrayed

because I really believed that I needed to learn that Not everyone has good intentions.

I can't allow everyone around me.

And at the same time, I also needed to learn to have more boundaries with people

that I shouldn't want to go and help someone or save someone.

You know, I saw this quote and it said, um, someone that is always trying to save someone is someone that.

would have wanted someone to save them.

And that really applies for me.

I think that I love taking care of people

because I wish someone had taken care of me and that like somehow heals me in a way.

But when it's to an extent that I neglect myself or I neglect my own needs, I always see my life going downhill because of it.

and it's not a good thing what i'm doing not to

myself having the right therapist can literally change your life it literally takes off such a load of your mental

and everything and they help you realize a lot of stuff now it's very hard to find a therapist

or to know where to begin and

that is why this video is sponsored by betterhelp help is

therapist you basically go to the website you fill out a questionnaire and then you

I believe also that as souls we have free will, So if you don't ask God for help with any situation that you're dealing with,

or you don't ask God to come and figure this out for you

or keep people that are not meant to be with you out of your life, then I don't think God can interfere.

100

because you have your free will.

101

We constantly blame God when something bad happens, but we should blame ourselves.

102

or we try to blame the devil, but I think a lot of us are the devil ourselves.

103

So, It's about taking accountability in your life and looking at, okay, if I do this right now, and if I allow this person into my life,

104

or if I go and I do this job that I hate so much, then...

105

Why am I complaining to God?

106

Because did you ask God for help?

107

Did you ask him like, Hey, can you help me get another job?

108

Can you please help me have the strength to not let this person back into my life?

109

Can you please give people into my life that are for my highest good?

110

Have you asked that?

111

Have you reached out to God?

112

If you haven't, then how do you expect God to help you?

113

Constantly live in fear.

114

You keep attracting things to fear.

115

If you live in love, you attract more things to love.

116

You live in abundance.

117

A lot of people are so scared of everything.

118

They're scared of attracting more money because they think that that is evil because some religions tell you it's evil.

119

They're all control tactics.

120

All control tactics.

121

So you won't live a good life and they're not from God.

122

God does not want you to suffer.

123

God does not want you to come to earth, have a bad life and then die and suffer more.

124

Like that's not the point of life.

125

That's not the point of this earth.

126

Faith makes anything possible.

127

I really believe the energy that you pour into something.

128

And when you really, really believe like this is going to help me.

129

Or if I do this prayer, if I say this prayer, this is really going to help me, that is going to happen.

130

Because faith is such a strong attractor.

131

It's something that really, really puts those things into your life.

132

Like I believe when I'm praying and I ask God, Hey God, like, thank you so much for everything you've done.

133

I put so much gratitude from my heart into my prayer first.

134

And then I say, can you please help me with this?

135

Like before when I used to have no money, I literally used to ask to pay a fine and then the specific amount.

136

And I swear in miraculous ways that money would come to me.

137

It's really because I had faith.

138

I really believed that God was going to help me.

139

I really believe that God wants the best for me, that I'm being protected.

140

I go through life believing these things and my life looks like that.

141

Now, if you don't have real faith, but then you claim to have faith, for example, you pray, but what did you even pray?

142

you go on your prayer mat and you just pray

143

because you just need to pray to get over it and to say that you prayed.

144

Pray because you want to talk to God

145

Pray because you want to talk to your best friend out of love and check in on them.

146

And ask for things that you need help with because God wants to help you.

147

And when you have faith that way, when you put out that prayer, it's gonna work no matter what, it will happen.

148

I really believe that whatever you believe in, even if you don't believe in God, if you believe in the universe, whatever, if you think that the universe is going to give me this and that,

149

it's going to happen because you're putting so much of your energy and faith into that.

150

so much energy towards that.

151

and that keeps attracting into our life because we believe those things we believe

152

that we're cursed or or the devil is on to me

153

and this and that and then you will find so much more reason to confirm that belief

154

Start believing that the world is working for you, not against you.

155

The same way that God is working for you, he's not working against you.

156

You know, it's oftentimes when we lose something, we start being really angry and we say like, oh God, why did you make me lose that?

157

Why did you do this?

158

And I just view it as, wow.

159

God really wanted to protect me because he loves me

160

and he showed me who this person is out of love and now I am protected.

161

Thank you God.

162

Opportunity and I don't get that opportunity.

163

I'd say okay then it wasn't for me and whatever is for me I will attract.

164

Whatever isn't will never be mine.

165

You know, there's so much peace in that.

166

There's so much peace in knowing that whatever happens in life, it's meant to happen this way.

167

And what is for you will never leave you ever, ever, ever.

168

You guys are all crying about this job left me, this ex left me, this opportunity slipped me by.

169

But it wasn't for you.

170

And if it was, it would be with you right now.

171

No one can ever take your blessings ever.

172

Whatever God has meant for you in this lifetime, you will receive.

173

I promise you that.

174

but you have to be open to receive it and not because something has left your life.

175

Now you close your hearts completely up and you sit there and you think like, I don't want anything anymore because I didn't get what I planned for myself.

176

But have you ever thought that maybe God had a bigger plan for you

177

and what you actually had was settling and that God has something

178

so big for you that you cannot even see for yourself?

179

Like, oh, my God, guys, if I had gotten the things that I had planned for myself, I would live a life like this.

180

But God's plan for me is like this.

181

So constantly when right now, like I have roadblocks or I don't get what I want, or it doesn't happen in the way that I expected it.

182

I really trust that God has a bigger plan and I give All my faith to God.

183

And I'm like, okay, you show me that because clearly like I'm being redirected.

184

It's never a rejection.

185

I can never be rejected from anything that was meant for me in the first place.

186

anything forced is not from God.

187

So God is flow.

188

Look at nature.

189

Nature flows.

190

It changes seasons.

191

It goes very easy.

192

All these things.

193

That's how God is.

194

When you have to force a relationship to work, when you have to force that job to appreciate you, for you to feel good there, it's not from God.

195

You're forcing it.

196

It's not supposed to be like that.

197

Life is not meant to be constant struggles and this is hard and that is hard.

198

That's not how it's meant to be.

199

That's how we're brought up to believe that it's meant to be.

200

But the people that actually know how life is supposed to be, they don't believe in that and they don't act that way.

201

They want you to believe that so you struggle your whole life, but I want you to stop believing that

202

and I want you to start believing life is meant to

203

flow your life you you're meant to attract a lot of abundance.

204

You're meant to have an easygoing stable life and you're meant to be supported by God.

205

You're meant to be loved.

206

You have to force people to love you.

207

If you have to force that job to appreciate you, then why don't you look at it and say, hey, Why am I forcing this?

208

If it was meant for me, it would have been there.

209

Like I am such a person where if someone does me wrong, if I lose a friend, if I lose a relationship,

210

I'm like so okay with that because I don't believe that I am set up to fail in life.

211

I don't believe that life is working against me.

212

So I'm very happy with any outcome that I have.

213

So when I think like, okay, this person didn't appreciate me enough or whatever,

214

you're free to leave because you're a holding on to someone that couldn't appreciate me.

215

You have to appreciate yourself.

216

First, you have to have love for yourself within.

217

And then when someone cannot show you the same amount of love you have for yourself, you don't even want them in your life.

218

You will not even want to beg for them or anything.

219

You just say, okay, you're free to go there and be like, oh, you're gonna have to love me.

220

Oh, you're gonna have to be like this.

221

They're never going to do that.

222

And the more desperate you are for it, the more it will run.

223

So just have accepted say, okay, whatever.

224

If this was for me, it was going to flow.

225

It was going to not be easy, but it's also not supposed to be hard.

226

So hard that you're going to beg for it.

227

Don't block yourself off because something bad happened.

228

Just because that one that you think is bad happened doesn't mean

229

that you should resent all the other things that want to come in

230

because imagine right now you close yourself off because

231

that one thing happened but here you have like 10 other opportunities 10 other people

232

that want to come into your life want to give you love

233

Don't reject those other things just because that one thing you didn't get.

234

You don't understand God's plan and then just surrender.

235

Stop fighting life.

236

Stop forcing life.

237

Stop constantly like giving so much, putting so much energy into things that don't feed you back.

238

The more you pour into empty things, the more you pour into empty people, the more they will drain you and the less energy you will have to attract different things.

239

You need to be whole by yourself.

240

You need to have your energy around yourself in order to attract more beautiful things into your life.

241

I saw this quote from Nietzsche and it said: "To live is to suffer,

242

and to survive is to find meaning in the suffering." So whatever happens to you, you look at it and you look at what is the meaning of this?

243

What is God teaching me here?

244

Like even with me, the two serious relationships I had, they both ended the same way.

245

It was a repeating cycle.

246

Why?

247

Because I have always went into relationships because of survival.

248

Never because I felt safe enough to go into it like just because of love, because I've never felt stable enough by myself.

249

I always thought, oh, I need someone next to me so I can survive or so I can have a plan B.

250

mode.

251

But I'm not looking at all the abundance that I have by myself, all of the things that God has blessed me with.

252

I don't need to survive anymore.

253

I can live now.

254

And I should give myself the grace to live.

255

I'm not my childhood self anymore.

256

I'm a grown woman now.

257

I've established myself.

258

I've done things for myself.

259

So I need to recognize that.

260

And I need to understand that if I still go into relationships with a survival mindset, I'll keep attracting the same situations.

261

And I think that is what God is showing me.

262

Also like when you have a purpose in life and you need to do that purpose

263

nothing else you will try will work.

264

So no job that you will try like regular job, all these things, they won't hire you.

265

Because if you have a true talent

266

that you're meant to share with the world

267

or you have something inside of you that you need to share with the world, God will not give you peace in anything else but that purpose.

268

God will not give you peace in any relationship if that is not meant for you.

269

You will try to work on it.

270

You will try to do this.

271

You will try to do counseling.

272

Nothing will work.

273

It will only get worse and worse because you're not meant to be there.

274

You learn that lesson is the minute you will get your blessings.

275

You know how many people I know that.

276

were constantly like, "Oh, I was holding on to this relationship, I was holding on to this person so much" and then all of a sudden they were like, even after years, they were like,

277

"I finally let it go" a week later, they meet literally like their dream person and they were literally like, "a week later I just met them" yeah,

278

of course, because right now your energy was not occupied with someone else when you're constantly involving yourself with your toxic ex, with your toxic friendships, whatever,

279

your energy is occupied with them No one else is going to approach you.

280

But then when you finally release yourself, you call your power back.

281

You cut those courts with those people.

282

You become whole again by yourself.

283

And now you're attracting more people because you are attractive.

284

Your energy is around you.

285

That's how you are attractive.

286

To understand is that God is abundant.

287

So this world is abundant.

288

This world is filled with everything we need and more.

289

To deny yourself of abundance is to deny the existence of God.

290

Truly, you're not meant to suffer.

291

God never said that, you know, he never said to people to suffer like those are the people in power that want you to accomplish nothing.

292

They want you to stay poor and in a poor mindset so that they can have all the money and you can't.

293

And a lot of people don't speak about this because they don't want to awaken the masses.

294

But it's sad to see.

295

It's so sad to see, you know, God is abundant.

296

So don't be afraid to ask for anything.

297

God is not on a budget.

298

You are.

299

Okay.

300

If you want to ask, like, I want to be a millionaire.

301

Yeah.

302

Ask that.

303

What is wrong with that?

304

You know?

305

You can do so much good with that money.

306

You can, you can give to people, you can even help your family.

307

You can help more people.

308

You can do all of that.

309

but don't be afraid to ask ask god for anything you need especially children that

310

don't come from financially stable parents or they don't come from parents

311

that supported them you will see god will support you a lot God is your parent.

312

Ask.

313

Ask as if you would ask a parent.

314

Don't be ashamed.

315

The other thing is you wouldn't be going through it if you couldn't handle it.

316

Something is happening in your life right now that is so tough and you think like I can't handle this.

317

This is too much

318

No, it's not it's not stop telling yourself

319

that look i know it's not nice

320

and life is not meant to be easy and just butterflies

321

and whatever because you would never learn anything from that okay we learn through our hardships

322

we learn through our success but i have learned way more to my hardships than i've learned from my success So,

323

look at that situation and say wow okay so God thought I was strong enough to handle this and I can.

324

Like right now what happened with my pregnancy and having all of a sudden to figure everything out on my own again.

325

I went from this life and then my life got turned upside down and then now I'm pregnant as well,

326

which is my biggest blessing i'm so grateful thank you god to be pregnant to be able to have a child

327

I'm so grateful for my child.

328

The thing was like I went from having all of what I've planned, my family and everything, to all of a sudden now I have a child on the way and where do I live?

329

What am I going to do?

330

I literally had to put all my faith in God and I just felt protected and I just felt like,

331

anything I do will come in the highest way and at the best timing.

332

And it did like I got a house, I got a car, I got the nursery set up.

333

I bought everything for the child.

334

Like I literally set up everything.

335

And then right now only I'm like, finally you know it's so beautiful

336

because it's in divine timing it's in the perfect time

337

because right now full term my baby is about to be here

338

and i figured everything out right before that

339

so i'm really really proud of myself and i know that with the help of god like

340

my life just keeps improving and improving

341

and even you know money -wise like i make all my money by myself and

342

I was like a little bit scared I thought like oh my god what am I gonna do now what

343

if my career is now ruined because I posted this online and all these things

344

But then I started getting so much more opportunities.

345

I started getting new brand deals.

346

And I was like, wow, like God is really looking out for me.

347

I don't believe that things happen because they want to destroy you.

348

And sometimes they do destroy you to put you back into the person that you're meant to be.

349

Because right now, honestly, I'm even more confident in myself because I'm literally like I can handle anything.

350

Literally, like whatever life throws at me, I keep coming back stronger.

351

And I just feel so proud of myself.

352

a strong woman i'm really a strong woman

353

and my mom is even like my mom is the strongest woman i know honestly

354

and then she's even like liz i'm so proud of you like You're not sitting there crying, you're doing whatever you need to do, and you're like bossing up every single time.

355

I just keep coming back and God is showing me how strong I am because Sometimes I doubt myself, I think like, "Oh, I can't handle this." But every single time I come out on top.

356

And I think you should believe that for yourself as well.

357

Look at all the situations that have happened in your life.

358

Didn't you come out on top every single time?

359

Aren't you still here?

360

Aren't you still breathing?

361

Exactly.

362

So literally celebrate yourself and be like, you know what, this I will handle again.

363

And after that you'll be more confident, you'll be wiser, you'll understand things more on a deeper perspective you'll mature a lot.

364

You know?

365

God is not working against you.

366

God is working for you.

367

God is not done with you.

368

Every single day, still breathe.

369

Every single day, still wake up.

370

There's another chance at life.

371

No matter how hard you've fallen into rock bottom, you can still get up again and try again.

372

This time, try with God.

373

Try with support or try with the universe.

374

I don't care.

375

Whatever you believe in, believe in something.

376

Have faith in something and then believe that it will work out for you.

377

through something really, really terrible.

378

They've always come out on top always.

379

And don't think that when people hurt you, you know, I see a lot of people that, like, Oh, karma doesn't exist.

380

Oh, I don't believe that they will get the karma.

381

Believe me.

382

I feel bad for the people that have hurt me because I feel like they're losing everything.

383

and i feel bad it's almost like i don't want them to get their karma

384

because it's sad to see like this you love this person you know

385

and then right now you see them completely crumble even

386

if you don't believe in karma it's not true it does come back to you

387

because i know people that have not believed in karma and they're still their life is shit

388

Really so do things from your heart don't hurt people and

389

just go and literally believe in yourself believe

390

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
