About Me

Darling Vickery

Hi, I’m Darling Vickery, the voice and heart behind A Touch From Grace.

I’m a miracle child — in every sense of the word.
I was born early, at just seven months, and nearly didn’t make it. Since then, I’ve had more than a few close calls — from almost being run over by a car to being in an accident — but through it all, God kept me.

I grew up in a Christian home and always knew about God’s love, but like many of us, I had a season where I drifted.
I had one foot in the church and one foot in the world. I was in and out of services, doing just enough to feel like I was still connected, but not truly surrendered. I wasn’t running from God, but I wasn’t chasing Him either.

That season stretched into three years — a long, quiet drift.

But then everything changed.

I decided to start attending a new church. And that’s where God met me.
That day, I experienced deliverance — a deep, spiritual breakthrough I didn’t even know I needed. It was like a veil was lifted. Since then, I’ve even received healing and revelation through dreams, dreams that showed me God wasn’t done with me — He was just getting started.

Shortly after, I made the decision to be re-baptized — not just as a symbol, but as a full surrender. That moment marked the beginning of real healing and a return to the heart of God.

But then life happened.

I moved, didn’t have a car, and getting to church became a struggle. I went when I could.

Later, I got married and moved to a new state. That transition brought a new chapter — one where I began attending church again with my husband. Slowly but surely, I felt my faith getting anchored again. Not out of obligation, but out of love and desire to stay close to God.

I started A Touch From Grace about eight years ago. For three of those years, I drifted — just like I had before. But now, I’m using this platform as part of my restoration. It’s how I minister, how I serve, and how I stay close to God.

That’s where Faith-Filled Week came from — a daily rhythm to help me stay rooted in Him:

  • Mindful Monday for reflection and prayer

  • Testimony Tuesday to share what He’s done

  • Wisdom Wednesday to apply His Word

  • Thankful Thursday to pause and praise

  • Faithful Friday to trust deeper

  • Serving Saturday to pour into others

  • Sacred Sunday to rest and worship

This rhythm helps me reconnect — even when life gets loud.

What God Healed, Restored, and Revealed to Me

When I look back, I realize God didn’t just pull me back — He restored pieces of me I didn’t even know were broken.

He healed the shame I felt for drifting. He reminded me that grace doesn’t come with conditions — it’s freely given. He restored my confidence, little by little, not just in myself but in His ability to use me despite my quietness and my past.

God showed me that even in silence, I was seen. Even in distance, I was never forgotten.
He reminded me that my voice matters — whether it’s through writing, through prayer, or maybe one day through worship.

Through dreams, through moments of prayer, and through a church that embraced me, He reminded me of who I am and Whose I am.

He revealed that my calling was still waiting on me. That this platform — A Touch From Grace — wasn’t just a hobby or an idea. It was a ministry. A mission.
A space not just for others, but for my healing too.

And He showed me that it’s okay to grow slow. To heal as I walk. To serve while still figuring it out.

I’d say I’m an encourager, a writer, and a helper.
Before I drifted, I used to pray daily — and I’m reclaiming that rhythm again.
Prophetic words spoken over my life said I’m a prophetic worshiper, a writer, and someone with visions through dreams — and two of those dreams have already come to pass.

Though I’m still shy, especially when it comes to worship, I believe one day I’ll walk fully in every gift God’s placed in me.
For now, I start each day in prayer — thanking Him for the gift of a new day and committing it to Him.

I’m still growing. Still healing.
Still learning to show up for God — even when life gets loud.

And if my story helps you draw closer to Him — or come back after drifting — then I know I’m walking in purpose.

Let’s journey together — one touch of grace at a time.
