I needed this! Yesterday, I didn't stay up after my husband left for work, and instead fell back asleep. My boys woke me up, the animals got fed late, no work was finished before breakfast...and I woke up feeling rushed and unprepared. This morning, things were completely different. I went to bed earlier last night, and since my husband has left for work, the animals have been fed, chickens let out, tea has been made, bathroom tidied up, laundry gathered, and I'm sitting down now to have my Bible reading. Thank you for this video. I need content like this to encourage me to live a Biblical life, and to rise above.
This is a beautiful example of the differences between sleeping in and rising early. I always felt the same way if I got up when my children did. 😊
The same
🥰🙏🏼
Soooo spot on with the modern conveniences being like our helpers or handmaidens. I love that comparison!
I am SO GLAD I have found you. I am a wife of 4.5 years and I recently took a more flexible job so I can transition and focus on homemaking, as that role for me has been neglected for too long. No children yet, but you motivate me to get moving. God bless you
I’m so glad you found my videos too 😍
That's awesome! I also started the transition into full-time homemaking and this way and now in my third trimester of pregnancy and homemaking is my full-time vocation. Everything in God's perfect timing but it is also great to prepare for certain seasons of life :)
I enjoy getting up early. I keep my phone downstairs in my office, never in my room, just personal preference. I do have an alarm clock, but I don't use it. This morning I was up at 6:30, excited for some quiet reading time. My first waking child wasn't up until 8 am. and I was very ready at that time. I agree with planning the night before, I always clean my kitchen, dining room and living room, so that I'll have a peaceful quiet place to enjoy with my book, bible, journal and coffee. Another thing that helps is that I set my coffee pot on a timer, so I can smell it or hear the chiming of freshly brewed coffee, I can't resist! Great video and reminders for us. Thank you!
I just recently found your channel and I’m so glad I did. I’m a 67-year-old woman and I really need your guidance. Thank you.
me too. :)
Beautiful
I've been on a journey to recover homemaking the last few years. It really hit me when I realized that my struggle with rising before versus with my household is in part due to my own chronic fatigue, but also in part to remembering my childhood. I have wonderful Christian parents, who suffer from severe chronic illnesses. For almost my entire childhood, my mother was unable to rise prior to early afternoon, and I was quite lonely the first half of the day since my father was at work and I was an only child, homeschooling during middle school. I think that realizing that this "pattern" from my childhood (placing no blame on my mother, for her illnesses are fully to blame) will help me be more diligent with rising early, instead of being sporadic like I have been the last few years with young children. Thank you for your video and your witness, I praise the Lord for you!
Loved it. I am an older woman and you inspire me to do better in my home and for the Lord.
🥹💞🙏🏼
God bless you for your heart wanting to grow in honoring the Lord :)
We must remember that the Bible is a spiritual book, and we must look at these things with spiritual eyes also not just the flesh. We can definitely learn how to be godly women but Jesus Christ works with everyone according to their heart and His time. Just know there is no condemnation in Christ.
Amen! I completely agree with this.
With lots of kiddos and a small one sleeping in bed with me, I've been struggling rising earlier than the kids since school started again. As the winter approaches it is even harder! Thank you for this reminder and encouragement. God Bless you and your family
It can be difficult. Good luck working it out 😊
I look forward to these videos every Sunday morning! I think back on your word through my week. Thank you for this! Blessings to you!
Amazing! Thank you so much
Yes, me too!
That's awesome ❤
I love your programme... I learnt housework is GOD'S work... no grumbling...amazing..
.
Amen!
Thank you sweet Tabitha . I’ve been struggling with this lately . When my kids were young I always jumped up very early . Now as an empty nester , it’s quite easy to fall into staying in bed a little longer . But nothing goes as beautifully and as peacefully when I do! I’m so much happier arising and being productive in my home ! I truly needed this message to remind me that I may not have little people or teenagers anymore , a lot less laundry etc , but I still have the same chores in my home! Even without littles, it still takes most of my day. This message resonates with all mommas , in all the stages God designed for us ! Have a wonderful day Tabitha!
Thank you so much for sharing that! I’m glad you like liked the video
So well put Rebecca ❣️ As a 74 yo great grandma, I have pretty much fallen off from getting up early and getting going and then I stay so depressed because our home isn’t the place that gives me joy.
Well said x
@@cowtownjanet4450You do not look 74! You look great!!
Praise God! Rising early and being productive in the home as an empty nester will make you a better Titus 2 woman to disciple younger women in your church and community 😀
I've been talking to God more. Asking him to help me serve him and my family better, quickly started waking up at 6am (an hour before the alarm, and this time of year in Canada, it's dark still.) the first two days I was annoyed at myself for waking up so early, then I remembered, or he put it in my heart that he was just doing what I asked, and here I was resisting 😂 so I've been trying to get up when I wake up. He's so forgiving and good. He wants us to succeed. God Bless.
Oh that’s so cool you noticed and changed your perspective! Thanks for sharing
I am a moderately disabled mama of a young toddler. We have o family nearby and no friends. To find ANY time for myself, I have to be up at 5am I love it. Truly, I do. I can get up unrushed and get a mile walk in while listening to a bible study podcast.
You are such a godly wife and mother. Thanks for motivating me... My biggest weak point is waking up early in the morning 😢😢
I’m trying! I’m glad my videos help motivate yiu
I’m a hardworking housewife who doesn’t have a problem with getting my work done, but the verse about rising early could be about planning and using time wisely more than just getting up early. I am a night owl and do my planning for the next day before I go to bed. The Proverbs 31 woman makes good use of her time and is productive, as am I. If it works better for someone to get up early to do that, then, great, go for it! But it doesn’t makes a woman more or less godly if she’s getting up really early in the morning. We serve Him with our hearts and with our work. He wants us to not be lazy, but getting up really early doesn’t mean everyone else is lazy. There are a lot of moms saying that we have to get up at 5 AM to jumpstart our day and be productive, but God is more concerned with our hearts than the time of day we wake up.
It’s very clear rising early is what God wants for us. I’m sure He is very happy with you making good use of your time and being productive
Condemnation should never be a part of our Christian walk. Each household is different. If we took this scripture and did not apply godly wisdom to it, it could be used as a bludgeoning tool. At times, during exhaustion, a wife needs to take a season to rest. Housework is not the be all and end all of what she is. Sometimes it will fall by the wayside as we recouperate and heal. Rising early is not a commandment. It is an admonition to take care of your household with love and efficiency. We have to be careful to rightly divide the Word.
It’s funny because God created the Earth to the evening and the morning so when the sun goes down that’s a new day. The Bible says to rise while it is yet dark. I think it’s based off personal preference as long as you’re taking care of your bodily temple and getting good sleep either way is blessed. I am an early riser but when I was breastfeeding a newborn I did it all at night. Both were rising while it is “early” the moment the sun sets its a new day and that’s the earliest part of the day Gods clock is the sun.
Perfect timing for sure! I listened to 2 of your videos and got 1 load of laundry per video folded and put away!🎉
Thank you. This study is helping me so much. 😊
LOVE your messages! So inspiring.
I love you’re videos! Thank you for making these with so much thought🥰
You are such an encouragement to me and such a blessing, truly 💖 Thank you for your ministry! Thank you for lifting up the Name of Jesus and for being a godly example
I’m so glad!
I needed to hear this today! I have been praying to God and here is your video! Thank you!
So encouraging! Thank you for being a Proverbs 31 woman and God bless you.
Love taking notes and spending this devotion time with you it soothes the soul ❤🙏
Such great and true facts. Ty for reminding me. Have a blessed Sunday Tabitha.
Yes, my mom always told us kids, “The next day begins the night before!”.
Great video. I needed this encouragement!
Please make more... Even if it's repeating. You inspire me to get going. I listen while I work. Thank you 😊
Ahh I'm so glad you're back on this channel..didn't know what to do with myself for that entire week ... you're so motivating and I love listening to you early in the morning to do the chores I HAATTEEE... I've told so many friends about your channel... thank you so much ♡
Oh I needed to hear this. Thank you!!
I just love the comment section, it's so inspiring ❤
Thank you very much Tabitha, I always look forward to watching your videos on Sunday morning and I am benefitting from them very much. God bless you for posting them each week. Hope you have a great week.
I needed this! Thanks Tabetha.
Excellent videos! I am so thankful I found your channel and thrilled to see we use the same cleaning/household supplies :)
Thank you! I just found your faith series. I clicked on This Mama’s faith thinking it was this mama’s house. I was blessed by your reading 😊
Thank you for this playlist. So uplifting and good study on Proverbs 31 woman.
Boy, did i need this!!! Thank you God for everything you have blessed me with! So i need to get moving!
This channel is so beautiful. Thank you Tabitha
I’ve never been an early morning person, though at times I have insomnia and am awake. (I often pray then.) But this video is so inspiring. Ty so much for this beautiful P31 series. Love your dress! ❤
This is my favorite one, thanks so much ❣️
Feeling blessed ☺️ and closer to Christ!
Hello Tabitha!! Your video was a blessing to me!!! You are so inspiring!!! I thank you for allowing God to use you to encourage us ladies to do more for our God and families!!! You are a blessing to so many!!! Take care God bless!!!
What a blessing you have been to me today God bless you and your family
Am glad to watch this,let me put in action.God bless you
Everything you said, and all the examples you gave were fantastic! A beautiful message well delivered, and I like that you included your tips for what you do as well.
Well, that was convicting! Thank you- I’m in a season of waiting and am tempted every day to be complacent. This has encouraged me so much! Thank you!
Love this message 🫶🏼 I’m working on being better in this area. One spot I particularly struggle in is the being up before my kids. They wake up between 5-6 AM, it really varies. I really don’t think it is practical for me to wake up before them right now and it is such a hard start to the day. I think to counteract it I need to do more set up in the evening. So happy to have found you!
Marvelous i am so blessed i fund your channel i have been looking for this channel for a long time❤❤❤
I have been waiting on your video 😊
Thank you for taking time out of your extremely busy day to bless and encourage us. ❤❤❤
So glad you like my videos!!!
I really look forward to these videos as they have become super motivating and thought provoking❣️Thank you and God bless❣️
I'm so glad!
My favorite channel ❤️ thank you for the message
Thank you so much!!!
Tabitha! I wanted to thank you for taking the time to make each of this videos. I listen to them while tending to my home. And it's been a great source of encouragement! I even began praying the rosary again.
Please keep the videos coming!
That’s so wonderful!!!! May our lady bless your efforts greatly
I am reading through Psalms in my morning devotions and it is so interesting to me how many times David says, “early will I seek Thee” and other things to that effect. This morning as I was reading chapter 63, it speaks of seeking Him early then the chapter proceeds to say, “When I remember thee upon my bed, And meditate on thee in the night watches.” (Psalm 63:6) I definitely feel more rested spending the final moments of the day in prayer or contemplation rather than playing on my phone to get sleepy. It e can learn so much if we open our eyes! Thanks for the video 😊
Thank you! I really need to hear this daily.
Me too 🙃🤍
Thank you so much, you are a blessing !
So good! I needed this big time. Thank you for sharing!
So glad you decided to watch!!
Hey Tabitha, I wanted to say that I am so thankful to have stumbled across your videos. It has refreshed my spirit significantly, and the timing is perfect for the beginning of the new year. Thank you for your biblical references for rising early, this was such an encouragement! I love how God's word has everything we need. May the Lord bless you and your family.
I’m so glad Felicia! hoping to make many more videos this year
Bless you and your family, thank you for inspiring the hearts of others and sharing the Lords word
You are an inspiration. Thank you!
Thank you for this massage ❤❤
I never thought of our modern conveniences being handmaidens. I enjoyed this video. It hurt like crazy but I needed it.
so beautiful this vlog. thank you. God bless you.
Thank you, I needed this ❤
I like the maidens part lol 😂 but agree there’s no shame in getting help if we need to. I like your perspective on things, great video thank you and God bless you. ❤
So grateful for you! Can you do a video to teach us how we can prepare and plan our meals and things ahead of time?
Merci pour ces beaux conseils
❤
I have that same dress that you have- the one on the far right! You have good taste! Thank you for your words!

This is lovely thanks lovely child of God 💗
Listening while cleaning today. Needed this reminder!
I love your channel Angela!
@ThisMamasFaith Thank you 🩷
This channel has honestly become one of my favorite channels on here. I can listen while I clean and be filled and encouraged with God's word and how it applies to us as homemakers at the same time!
I’m so glad! Hearing that is very encouraging 🥹
I love this Thankyou ❤
Thank u for this video God bless
I missed this today. Found myself excited to wake up for a video
Aww thank you for the encouragement!!! 💞🥹
Loved this 💖
I needed all of this... I also felt seen watching you do diaper laundry 😂 We homeschool two kiddos but I need to do more and we also have a newborn.
New subbie and loving it🎉
Perfect timing! I am trying to get up earlier. I always get everything done before bed kitchen ckean floor mopped etc as i dont know what the night will be like...my husband stage 4 cancer and nights can be hard. But its so important to have a good routine.
Praying for you and your husband
You are very inspiring ❤
Great message.
It doesn't matter if you get up at 5 and go to bed at 9 or get up at 8 and go to bed at 12. It's the same amount of time and you can get the same amount of work done . This is all a matter of good time management and getting all our chores done. My kids when they were little all slept in with me and stayed up later with me. When school years came and went we got up earlier. Now that they are grown I rise later and go to bed later. You either have good work habits or you don't, period. Time of day doesn't mean much when we have lights to use.
You're absolutely right, time doesn't matter. Work ethic is a very big part of it. Why not follow the example laid out in the Bible then?
I agree in theory, but there's an mindset element to it too. I was always taught that an early riser is a hard worker, and that an early sleep is a wholesome one. If I wake up feeling like a hard worker with a rested, wholesome body, I will have a better and more productive day than if I feel like a lazy slob. I could work on changing my mindset (and I certainly don't judge others as harshly) but it is easier for me to just get up a bit earlier
I never said that you shouldn't get up early if you want to. Just saying that take for example nurses that work 7 pm to 7 and sleep all day are not lazy and a stay at home mom that gets all her work done even if she would sleep in is not lazy.
@@saversavvy2670 definitely. My husband gets home from work late and doesn't sleep until midnight or later, so obviously there are women out there doing the same. I think in biblical times there were probably less women doing night shifts and late sleeping was probably more associated with slacking of duties. For those like myself that can, getting up earlier and getting ready for the day, praying and maybe starting a task or two without the kids, it really does get the day centered. 😀
In theory I agree, but most of the people I know who get up early are way more productive. So I think waking up early is the best idea unless there's a good reason not to. It's also better for your circadian rhythm. Artificial lighting doesn't react with your body the same way (that's part of why people get seasonal depression, or depression if they work nights.)
For me, I wake up moderately early, but my limiting factor is that my husband is a bit of a night owl, so when I wake up too early we never see each other 😂
This series >>>>
Love it here 😊🫶🏼
Thank you!
Thank you! ❤
Thank you for your words of encouragement. I have been struggling for the last year with being diligent with my housework and outside work. I am single and also an empty nester and feel like I don’t have anyone to keep things nice for or go the extra mile for. Don’t get me wrong. My house is clean and picked up but when I am done with my work day I just feel lazy and don’t want to do anything extra. Not sure if anyone else has gone thru this stage of life or not but any advise on how to push thru it would be appreciated.
Hi Tabitha 👋🏽 would you consider making another hour long video - made of the videos from this Proverbs 31 Bible Study?
May the Most High continue to bless you & your family 🙏🏽
Yes! That is my plan!!!
Thank you so much sister💕💕🙏 you’re a wonderful example and inspiration of a godly woman. Now how to do you memorize the word so well..any study tips from a busy mama to another busy mama?😊 love to you ❤
I type out what I’m going to say before I record the voice over ;)
I put my eggs in water with a splash of white vinegar, then brush with a scrubbie dish sponge. Use small bucket from dollar tree.
Very good video!
Blessings dear
Inspired.
Can you do a video on canning thank you!
Thank your for this wonderful message! I hope you dont mind me suggesting to you to not wash fresh eggs before storing them. Rather just brush off any dirt. Washing the eggs removes the very important layer that protects the eggs and makes them stay fresh up to 4 weeks. Hope this helps anyone :-)
I only wash my duck eggs. :) They are filthy. Chicken eggs stay on the counter unwashed
Sometimes they have 💩 on them and need a washing
Where do you buy all your dresses? I seldom find many I like so I’m always looking.
Amen
I’d love a video on places you purchase dresses from. As a dress lover, it’s getting harder for me to find modest dresses I love from the thrift store.
Great video by the way. Convicting for me, while also encouraging.

Hello Tabitha! I purchased my first bible yesterday, and I'm a bit lost. Where would you recommend a beginner start with reading and studying the bible?
It was suggested to me when I was a young Christian to read the book of John first. Then move on to the book of Acts. Then read 1 John, 2 John and then 3 John. I hope this helps. God bless!
The Bible tells us that God will give understanding to those who are saved. The first step is to be sure you are saved by His grace; which happens when you acknowledge that you are a sinner, that God sent His son Jesus to live a sinless life and die for our sins, that Jesus died and was buried in the tomb but He didn't stay dead. He dropped our sins off in hell and rose again to defeat death and make our way to Heaven possible. If you believe these things and believe God can save you, then you ask Him to forgive you of your sins and save your soul!
If you are saved, then start your Bible reading with prayer. Pray that God will forgive any sins you've committed since you spoke with Him last and pray that He would give you understanding. Make sure you believe He will answer when you're praying and also don't expect to understand heavy and deep things. The Bible says as sincere babes desiring the milk of the Word. You have to start with the milk, the easy and basic things before you can move on to harder things. Trust that God will direct you and give you understanding.
Also, make sure you're in a good church that preaches God's word for you to learn and gain understanding, every time they have a service. God uses pastors to teach us and we need to make sure they're preaching the truth, not just telling us feel good things. 💜
And psalms and proverbs. Read one every day. ❤
I’m pregnant and struggling to do anything besides sleep. It’s miserable
Sending prayers! God is gracious!!
