Hear from others about Micah and The Widow Walk.
Loree Dobbs:
“I read from My Mended Heart every morning as part of my devotional time. It is always a blessing and inspiration to me. One of my favorites is on page 53 where it talks about seeking the Lord as if on a treasure hunt. I love that analogy! It speaks of the excitement we have each day in seeing what the Lord is going to do. We are so proud of what He’s doing in Micah! Her heart is truly after His in uniquely beautiful ways. Keep blazing on, Micah! We love you and can’t wait to see what He has in store for you and your precious kiddos.”
Shelly Futrell:
“I’m writing to share how Micah’s song ‘Come’ reveals the Father’s heart to me. I love this song because in it, the Creator of the universe, instead of forcing or manipulating us to do what He wants, puts out the call to come. I believe Micah is speaking for both the Father and Son as Jesus is the groom calling us to come as well. He waits for us to CHOOSE Him. He wants our fellowship and has all that He is to offer us if we will only COME and spend time with Him. Pure love and how it transforms awaits and will blow us away if we will just COME to Him.”
Sarah Parker:
“Micah is such an inspiration to love intentionally and truly cherish the ones you love! She has such a generous heart! I don't have a favorite blog post to reflect on, but more of an overall feeling from reading her blog as a whole: love. The Father's love, her love for others. A true reflection of love. I truly admire her and look forward to watching what God has in store for her, Stone, and Stella.”
Kathy Wright:
“When you’re with Micah, her heart, her words and actions are as you find in her blog, book, and music. They are filled with love, confidence, and the assurance of the living Christ. Older women are supposed to teach the younger, but this ‘older’ friend has been so blessed knowing her! She came in to my life through her loss and it’s been my gain ever since. His peace, love, and joy to a true ‘Daughter of the King’!”
Amy Hobbs:
“Micah has been an inspiration and a source of strength in many ways. The way I have been impacted most is through her love of music and her songs. One song in particular ‘The Joy of the Lord’ really helped me get through some low points. It would pop in my mind when I was feeling low and I would sing it and immediately feel lifted up. She has been an example of praising Him no matter what you are going through. Through praise comes power and connection with God. So now, instead of turning to worldly comforts when troubles arises, she has taught me to pump up the praise.”
Meredith Holt:
“Micah’s life turned upside down when her amazing husband, Ben, went to be with the Lord. While we were all grieving the loss of our dear friend, we also began watching Micah courageously pick herself up and pour into all of us and her community. She showed us the power and faithfulness of God through her strength. God gave Micah the gift of song and it has blessed myself and my family in more ways than one. Nothing brings more joy to my heart than to hear my two little girls singing the strong declarations in Micah’s heartfelt songs. ‘For the joy of the Lord renews my strength,’ and, ‘I’m a daughter of the King and I hope now you see it.’ Thank you, Micah, that these are the words that I’m able to pour into my daughters’ hearts. These are the words that will become affirmations over their lives. We love you, we honor you, and we’re proud to call you our friend.”
Ashlyn Helms:
"Micah is a great person, but an even greater person to work with. She challenges me to test and expand my skills, try new things, and be creative. When we have creative freedom and work with the same goal in mind, we create inspirational work. Everyone needs a Micah in their life! She is someone who is excited about life, and even more excited about what God has done in her life and the lives of others. She speaks to many through her words and music, which is a gift. I am very blessed and lucky to know her."
Judy Fanjul:
"Micah has been an incredible inspiration and a powerful encouragement for my life. I love her website’s mission statement and her book My Mended Heart. This is one of my favorite quotes from My Mended Heart: 'Fear takes us to places we don’t need to go. Faith in Jesus takes us to places we never dreamed we could go.' She brings hope and spreads joy to those who need to be reminded of the goodness and faithfulness of our God. She is a beautiful young widow, who trusted and sought after Jesus, and He transformed her wild lament into a whirling dance of ecstatic praise (Psalms 30:11)."
Leigh-Ann Blount:
"Whether through written word or song, Micah links arms with you on your journey, inviting you into her world and illuminating the beauty in yours. Inspiring, she compassionately points you to Truth while encouraging you to keep going. A rare gem in the treasure chest of life, her challenges have ultimately made her more beautiful inside and out. And as you listen or read, she calls out the Beautiful Treasure that lies within you!"
Holly Ledbetter:
“Who knew exactly what Micah’s book, blog, music….all of it would really mean to me. We’ve been friends since childhood. Watching Micah’s process has been beautiful. She wasn’t a writer growing up, BUT as your read in her book, God grew her in a deep way! The Holy Spirit imparted to her and now she’s soaring. Little did I know exactly how much Sending and Mending would mean to me, until I walked her same path, different but similar. God called our husbands home in our 30’s, BUT we have a new purpose and things to fulfill in the kingdom, here on earth! Read her book; glean from her insight! We’re all going through things and it will strengthen your soul! Love you Micah!”
Peggy Overby:
“Let me tell you a little something about my Micah. Time with her feels like getting a shot of B-12 to the heart, and that’s something you want to experience. I have known her for most of her life, and how the Lord has overlapped our lives over the years has been nothing short of a miracle. Micah’s songs, encouragement & prayers were exactly what I needed time and time again, and now I’m about to launch out into all that God has for me in this New Season post-widowhood! Micah also carries insight & wisdom that has lead me to a closer & deeper walk with Jesus. She redirects your focus back to the heart ❤️ of the Father who loves us all so much! She gets me excited to see & declare the miracles of our Savior who bore it all on the cross for us!!!”
Betania Jervey:
“I have never known a woman whose faith jumped so high and deep with the Father to believe for her husband to be raised from the dead. It's been such a joy to be Micah’s friend. She is such a giver and prayer warrior. I'm glad God has crossed our paths together. I love how God is wooing her into His bosom. She's stepping out in faith and God has opened many doors for her. Micah also has a gift of encouragement and helping people reach their destination.”
Tonya Deaton:
“The last few days I’ve been pondering over my beautiful friend, Micah Dillon. If you set her enviable physical appeal and red-carpet-style aside, a strong, wise, and excellent woman remains. This lovely, generous, young widow is a single parent raising two pretty amazing middle-schoolers while working, blogging, and writing incredible songs for Jesus and recording them with her equally incredible voice. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer, Micah’s strong faith never wavered. In her I’ve seen what it looks like to walk on water. She is courageous. And I feel very certain that, even now, her husband Ben is praising her just inside those bright, pearly gates.”
Mirna Misseri:
“I got the opportunity to hear Micah speak. Afterwards, she asked me what was my favorite part. After a moment of thought I said, ‘YOU are my favorite part!!! Your zeal for seeking Christ in your life and His word. And the many fruits you received for heeding the prompting of the Holy Spirit. You are being guided, and it's beautiful to see you discovering yourself as the daughter of the King.’ Micah is just a beautiful soul. I love how much she loves the Lord and how on fire she is for Him. I told her, ‘You girl are on fire!’ I love her passion, voice, heart and songs!!”
Connie Bowe:
“I heard Micah speak at a company event and I was so inspired by her words. Later on, Micah sent me a copy of her book My Mended Heart. I read it and it was exactly what I needed at that time. I was not able to put the book down. God used her book to give me encouragement and to TRUST in Him! Micah’s love for God is contagious and I know that God has great plans for her. She truly walks the walk! Even when you meet her in person, you will see Jesus on her. I love you Micah and can’t wait to see where God leads you, because He has great plans for you!”
Linda:
“The Widow Walk is such a special place. Micah bravely uses her personal journey to provide sweet comfort, music, and resources to help widows of all ages gently work through the many layers of grief. Thank you for such insight and caring, Micah, as we make our way on the Walk today!”
Monika Williams:
“The time Micah shared about her life after losing her husband is what is clearest in my mind. Micah was very transparent about her challenges with how life is to be without her husband, and how raising her children is different now, but she is trusting the Lord to lead her through it. Her songs were just as beautiful as she allowed her greatest hurt to transform to powerful and intimate worship. She displayed such strength at a time she must have been feeling very vulnerable. It encouraged me to allow the Lord to lift me out of my life's disappointments, trusting that He will allow me to shine through both hard and good times.”
Justine Ellerman Cucuzza:
“I have had the pleasure of attending several conferences and church services that featured Micah Dillon. In June of 2022, Micah was the guest speaker at our women's breakfast. Her message was based on Isaiah 61:3, “I will give you a garment of praise in place of a spirit of heaviness.” She gave us the opportunity to share the heaviness and put on the garment of praise. Her creative presentation style allows for vulnerability, openness, and honesty. This, in turn, fosters transformation. She ministers to the heart in song, as a soulful worshipper and a gifted songwriter. She will surely bless any gathering!”
Lanita Fuller:
“Micah sent me her book, CD, and jacket after my husband passed, and she didn’t even know me. Later she gave me her second CD. The words to all of her songs touched my heart and encouraged me. As Micah and I have gotten to know each other, she has always had a smile on her face no matter what she was going through. She has always been positive, uplifting, and encouraging. She is full of wisdom and help for widows. May God bless Micah, her family, and The Widow Walk ministry in a mighty way! May God’s love be shared, many needs be met, and many hearts be healed and changed for God’s glory!”
Monika Williams:
“Micah Dillon and I met once I became an agent in 2013. Every time I have seen Micah or reached out to her, she has always been a positive inspiration to me even with going through her grief and pain. I think Micah has such a beautiful soul that loves our Father God and wants to do His bidding and be the beacon of light for anyone who may need some positive energy and guidance. Even when Micah is being tested, her faith is never wavering. “It's God’s plan.” Watching Micah handle many positions, I am in complete awe of how she is accomplishing everything that comes not only to her, but also her family’s way. You would not realize that Micah is doing most of the work by herself, but she does have some help. Micah, being a proud woman, accepts the help, but she doesn’t take advantage of the help that she is being offered. Micah Dillon is the type of person everyone needs in their life. I don’t believe we met by chance; I believe that there is a reason that our Father God led me to this real estate profession and to the company where we both work, Coldwell Banker Professional/Coldwell Banker NOW. I have learned from a distance how to be levelheaded, how to work through the pain, and to never give up because someone has it worse off than you and God never gives you more than you can handle. Although some of this may sound like a cliché, Micah is proof that it is more than a cliché, because she lives it every day with a shepherd’s heart.”
