Discovering you and your ministry on KZfaq because of The Chosen is one of the BIGGEST BLESSINGS my wife and I have experienced. We were loving your CHOSEN content and subscribed to your channel... We scrolled through your content and found this video and were absolutely FLOORED. Your faith, your testimony of God's LOVE is like none we've ever heard. As parents of 2 boys, (13 and 9) and a baby girl 10 months old...we started trembling in fear as we watched your story... by the end of the video we were experiencing an EMBRACE from the Lord like never before. THANK YOU! You are all so BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for helping us fall more in LOVE with Yeshua.

My newborn died too……previously I also lost my first . Praise the Lord for the one I have. There are no words for loss. It’s been12 years and I still cry sometimes. But the Lord told me during the last loss that He will not let anything in my life be wasted, and that gave me great encouragement though He didn’t explain why it happened. He loves me very much. He died for me and nothing can beat that! I still don’t understand why but I trust in Him and His love for me. I’m also grateful for the son I have. He’s 17 now. God has been so good and I trust Him. Even with tears in my eyes I trust Him. And one day I’ll see my babies again

I started your video a few days ago and then came back tonight after The Chosen's season 3 finale where Simon is so angry at Jesus for the loss of his and Eden's child, and then repents and begs Jesus not to leave him. Wow, it just cemented how much we need Jesus in these hardest moments of our lives. I'm so sorry for your losses, and I'm so grateful for your hearts and your faith. Tears. God bless you all.

when i started watching the Grafted videos (especially The Chosen reviews), this video started to show in my recommendations.. i try to stay from this for a while.. mainly because of the topic.. i'm a dad myself.. 3 boys... and the thought of "losing" anyone of them is devastating... however, i gave it a go today... and i felt your pain... the pain i pray that i don't go through because i don't know if i can handle it... but your story is not just of pain.. because God turned your pain into a blessing... a reminder of God's faithfulness and love... what He has taken, He has replaced... much like the story of Job.. a true testimony of how God works in your lives.. more blessings to you families.

I am so sad for you both, your honesty and raw grief are such a testimony to the love that you have for both the Lord, each other and your beloved sons. I cannot imagine losing two children. I lost my only son to cancer nearly 26 years ago. He was a believer aged 18 and handled his probation of ill health with dignity and love but his loss has been so difficult to cope with. Only God! The Lord has been with us both throughout these years, lifting us and providing us with strength and hope. Leah, I know the anger so well, the pleading, the deep physical pain of child loss, but I also know the sweet peace that comes from faith in the One who holds each of us in His hands. Nobody, this side of the Kingdom will ever fathom the reasons that the Lord allows such tragedies into our lives, but we do know that His plan is perfect and His ultimate plan for believers is eternal. I cannot wait for the day of Redemption when all tears will be wiped away and we will know everything and be at eternal peace. Again, I am so terribly sorry for such a loss, and thank you for sharing your journey. 'And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.' Revelation 21

I'm so, so sorry. My son was diagnosed with Leukemia at 17 months. I thank the Lord that he survived when I saw so many children who didn't. Much like Leah, I questioned my faith until I realized that God was the only one who could bring me through it. Bless you all.

Your story is beautiful, heart-wrenching, and so moving. I wept with you. As a mother of four, I cannot fathom your loss, but I'm so touched by God's goodness to walk with you through it. It is obvious He has given you a very precious gift in your friends. What a blessing to have brothers and sisters to share your griefs and victories. My husband is a pastor of a Messianic congregation in the Houston, TX area and I stumbled across your channel a couple of days ago searching for messianic content. I'm so very happy and excited to find you guys. A family that is part of our congregation is in KC right now and I'm trying to talk them into visiting you guys this Shabbat!

Your daughter Cass (Cassidy) is amazing, such insight and her witness for Jesus is going to be so good, so needed. I have a son named Cass who God gave me through adoption. Thank you for sharing those tears, the truth about loss and how God is still good. Blessings be upon your family.

Only recently discovered your videos. SO glad I did! Grief has been my constant companion since a child, a familiar, not always welcomed friend. To see you and your family-friends express it and comfort each other is amazing. Most people want to run and hide, but you embrace it as a gift from God, a reminder that LOVE is here with us, in the depths of loss, through the presence of Jesus.

Was weeping with you guys the whole part of the video you were sharing about Zeke and Wyatt. Your family and friends are so deeply connected with God and a slightest of the remembrance of what happened and how the Lord got you through was easily bringing tears to you guys. Even Cassidy - She said "I'm Blessed". Amen! Also, watched your other videos and you guys are amazing and so funny in bringing the truths to everyone. Keep Going! Glory to the Lord!

I'm sobbing, but this is so beautifully healing even for someone like me, who doesn't even know you. I have grieved all my losses alone, even in the past 30 years belonging, serving, loving others in the church. I was a bit surprised but so thankful for what Leah said about watching movies and reading books that focus on someone else's pain. I have done that all my life, and have always believed that it's key to contentment and thankfulness. Thanks so much for sharing. 😭😭💕💕🙌🙏🏻📖🕊️ .. And your daughter is so beautiful and I love how she grew into such a God loving woman through all of this. God's thoughts and ways are so much higher, and so much better. Amazing grace, how incredible the sound 🥰🥰

Thank you for sharing your story. I know it's bringing hope and healing to many. And, helping those who have rejected God out of the own pain. I also know even putting this video together for yourselves was healing and for your oldest daughter as well, especially when she remembered the dream. And, when Sam was so angry for you, Tom, and you told him that God was still good was so soothing. I know nothing fully takes the pain away but I guess nothing in this life is meant to. We need pain in our lives to know the joy. Your story is so inspiring and so full of life despite your losses. If you don't mind me saying, my story is very different but you helped me hit upon something in my own life. Thank you, I'm so grateful for that. I'm already subscribed to your channel and looking forward to seeing even more Grafted videos. God bless you all!!

Thank you for sharing this difficult testimony ! When I lost my oldest daughter, married mother of 2, it was tough, too - but God reminded me: if you bring a child into this world, give them a God centered home, teach them about Jesus, watch them accept Christ, see them live out their Christianity, and they end up in heaven - you can’t do better than that. That’s the very best outcome for your child, you, and heaven itself. I agree with Tom - all the details are ‘so what.’ As time goes on, I cry less often and as time goes on I am closer to a reunion…so + or - blessed be the name of the Lord ! We know your babies are waiting for you. What a day that will be !!

I stumbled upon the Grafted channel as I was looking for reactions to The Chosen, Season 4, 4-6 episodes. I thoroughly enjoyed Tom's and Sam's humor (and seriousness) in reviewing The Chosen, subscribed to the channel, and then found this video. There is no way you could have gone through the loss you experienced and come out the other side with such hope without the Lord, and I am truly grateful that all of you shared your testimonies, always giving the glory to the Lord. I went through the loss of my infant daughter who died at 10 days of age. I wasn't walking with the Lord at the time, but He knew I would be some day, and somehow He got me through it. The goodness of God is as beyond comprehension as are the ways God. Looking back, having experienced an unusual amount of death of immediate family members from the time I was a child until now, the level of trust I have in Him now has caused me to stop asking Him "why". As your precious daughter quoted from Romans, "God causes all things to work together for good to those who love Him." Thank you again. I am truly blessed as others will be too... all for His glory.

That was such a powerful story. Thank you for sharing. This made me appreciate my mother's courage even more. Her first 4 pregnancies ended in miscarriages and yet she had the strength to try again and had my sister and me. She also lost a baby boy who lived for 90 minutes when I was 2. (My brother) Then she had another girl before she was finished. If she wasn't so strong in her spirit I wouldn't have been born. She raised us to know the Lord and I will be forever thankful for that. I have had the honor of caring for mom for 11 years now. She has been battling Alzheimer's disease and can't do anything for herself. It's just me and her and Jesus. I will have to let go soon because she is forgetting how to eat. I hope I can stay as close to Jesus and feel his healing through that time when it comes as you were able to in your pain and loss. Thank you for the inspiration to get through those times by sharing your story. P.S. I loved the music in this video. Can you tell me the artist's name? Is there any way to find it online?

So happy your family is complete (maybe?) now. I love the friendship between you two. I have to say as a Christian, when I was a child and teen, I knew in the back of my mind that Jesus was a jew but it was never emphasized. I had a 50 year period apart from the church and became born-again when my husband died. I am so thankful for both of you. I have learned so much from your summaries of the episodes of The Chosen. Thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing your story of grief and community in the Lord. I lost my husband, who was in the Lord, 20 months ago. We prayed so much for healing during his time of sickness (6 years). I haven't been upset at God, until last month Today I was so angry with God, why did you take him? Leaving me with two children alone. When I had calmed down, I felt like I need to go on a trip. Maybe a trip with Grafted (because I've seen you talk about it when commenting on the Chosen). I looked on your website and found this video. I had no idea you had gone through the loss of two children. I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing this, it gave me comfort. The Lord led me to listen and understand how important community is. I don't have that closeness with people in my church, but I do have it with my inlaws. Struggling when I'm alone, asking God for were we should be. What spiritual community and more. I'll pray more over this. Thank you again.

I've been watching your videos for at least a year & love the teaching & the joy & the tiny mugs even lol This video I had already liked but I decided to watch anyway with hesitation but I am so hopeful after listening to your story & wanted to say I love all of you so much! I am thankful for all of you not just Dr Tom's family but also Mr Sam's too. Thank you guys for offering up your loaves & fish. God - Yeshua is teaching me still after all these years.

I've never watched anything so raw, so real, so beautiful. I love Tom and Sam on Grafted. I just stumbled upon this today after hearing a similar story of the loss of a child and the struggle of Faith yesterday. Thank you for your vulnerability and willingness to share your grief. Your daughter Cassidy is a wise and beautiful soul beyond her years. Blessings on you all and on your ministry.

Thank you for sharing your story. I cried so much. I have recently started watching your channel and shared your new covenant video with my friend, telling her I love how much joy you have. I never knew your story until now. This is truly a testament to the goodness of God through suffering. My story is very different but I had a miscarriage in 2007 and my husband and I have not had any more children..yet. I will always say yet. The closeness you feel with the Lord during seasons of pain is unlike any other time. His closeness, His Word, His amazing goodness, our hope in the resurrection. I'm so sorry for your loss. It's beautiful to see your walk with the Lord and how you have been surrounded by a community of saints who have shared in your pain and looked upon the faithfulness of God with you. May God bless you richly. I continued watching your story and was reminded of Job. The Lord has walked so faithfully with you. I too had people say I didn't have enough faith (that's why we have been trying for a child for 15 years). The Lord knows the measure of your faith, as He knows mine. So much love to you and thank you again for sharing. Shalom.

Uh I have wept so much listening to your story. My heart just aches. As a mom of 3 I just want to hold mine a little tighter. I don't want to ever think think this would never happen to us I suppose that's why it's so hard to watch because I feel that grief as if it has happened. I've only felt the grief of losing my first in miscarriage. I wasn't far along in my pregnancy so I don't even know if I was going to have a boy or girl. I was only a few weeks along, yet the pain was horrible and I cannot imagine the pain if it came now. I have to remind myself that my children are mine but they are truly the LORD's and he knows their future and I know and have that amazing hope of spending eternity with my children no matter what comes in this life.

Oh my heart. I cried through the entire video. I lost my oldest son Kyle at 10 years old two years ago this month. It was unexpected and sudden. My heart is still so very broken and I am still dealing with being very angry at times. But, God. I am blessed, as you are, to have a very strong church family and friends helping carry our burdens and walking with us through the grief of this loss. We are very involved in our church and was my boys second home so I thank the Lord for that comfort and blessing. If I did not have my faith and my hope in Jesus I would not be able to endure this pain. Thank you for sharing your story. I am looking forward to us all being reunited with our precious children.

I would also say that, its hard to lose a child, mine was taken by Our Dear Lord, she was our third child, she was born weak and premature. She survived for 7 weeks. But an infection prevent her for being with us a little longer. Elohai has his reasons. We cannot tap into his psyche. And all this suffering and pain, in the end there is a reward for showing obedience to Him. If you ask me, are we worthy of this pain and suffering, of course no. But stay strong, He has a plan for all the faithful. And those who past away, they shall be with us soon. Come the kingdom of God🕊️✝️

I've been watching Grafted for the past year and heard your references to the loss of your boys. Today, I was watching your video on John the Batptist from The Chosen and THIS video just popped up. Your willingness to give your raw unfiltered emotions/questions/struggles was uplifting, humbling and soothing as you testified to the goodness and faithfulness of God and His control of the situations we face. Thank you for being joy in my day, laughter in my soul and hope for the people of the earth. God bless you all.

Nothing gripes me more than those that hit you with that you did it have enough faith to heal your loved one or bring them back from the dead or any other circumstance that you want to change. Our faith, no matter how great it is, does NOT control the Lord’s will. Saying you did not have enough faith to change a circumstance, is putting your faith in faith. Our faith is to be put in Jesus. Our faith in Jesus as to who He is. Faith that He is in control of everything. Our faith then, will give us comfort and peace with the Lord and His will for us. I have learned that the Lord gives us our children. Only our children are not really ours. Our children belong to the Lord and He gives them to us to cherish and raise to be His child. Sometimes we get to keep them for our lifetime. But sometimes we don’t. Sometimes He sends his angels to gather them up and take them home. Where they will be safe and waiting for us when our time comes. There is something peaceful in my soul, knowing that. Knowing that we do not have to worry about them anymore. Because they are already home. Worry. That is my biggest struggle in this life.
