      Ah...it seems that my world sickness is indeed an epidemic. May we all be healed and find that peace that passes all understanding. And it was a joy sharing the history of this season. I learned a lot, too! Many blessings to you!

    Dear One, You have been such an inspiration in my life! It makes me sad to hear that people are judging you for bringing such a love beauty and traditions and deep heart felt meaning into our world! .Each video you make opens my heart more! You are one of the few christians I know that
    are not fearful and judgmental of others beliefs ! You are truly following the example of jesus who loved everyone! Please honor and be yourself and allow the gifts God has graced you with to shine!!! ❤

      Thank you for taking time to write such a thoughtful, inspiring and sweet note.

It is a blessing having you part of Old Stone Well Farm.

    You certainly haven't lost a viewer in me, Donna! Your messages have have been so welcome, and so full of reassurance and hope. I observe pagan traditions as well as Christian ones, and I love that you've incorporated those elements too! I hope you feel better and more energised - this "World" sickness is draining all of us, and it's meant to. That's why we have to ensure we try and surround ourselves with the people we love, nature, and things that restore us. I really enjoyed this message you've given us. Blessings to you.💖

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So true. I needed that reminder. This world we live in easily tempts us to measure our "success" by numbers, when I know in my heart that is not what matters to God. It's being faithful and true and always trusting, even in the storms, that we grow closer to Him. Again, thank you for your words. Blessings to you!

    Pastor Donna, I have watched your Halloween videos for about 4 years now and they always bring me joy. Your inspirational messages on the pumpkins are meaningful and definitely Christian. You don't focus on witches and ghosts and scary things that are often associated with Halloween. Thank you for the history of the three days of Halloween that do focus on Christian traditions. I think many of us have "world disease" these days. Hopefully, some of that will be "cured" next week.
    Gratefully, Nancy

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I makes me smile to realize that you are one of the friends who have been coming to Old Stone Well Farm since the early days. It means so much to me. (And I can't believe how the years are flying by!) I did struggle with this year's message but the Spirit never ceases to amaze me and how it is always inspiring me even when I fear inspiration is gone. Here's to all of us recovering soon from our world sickness. Blessings and hugs to you!

      What a gift you have that you are able to play with your grandson. There is nothing more delightful than the laughter and joy of a child.

Blessings to you!

    New Scriber and I connected with your comments, especially "Living with Love". May I please ask you and others not to forget the many people still suffering in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina? There is such healing in nature, especially communing with the gorgeous colors of fall in these mountains. Many have lost their homes, along with everything they possessed. Sadly, some have lost family members. We have been helped so much by the kind and compassionate volunteers from all over the United States who have come here and selflessly asked what they can do to help. Also, please pray for us, as we live in our new "reality" and begin to recover. God bless you.

      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I love hearing from the UK! Thank you for being part of Old Stone Well Farm!!! Yes, sadly my world sickness is indeed plaguing the world. It seems everyone, no matter where they live, is feeling the heaviness. My father's family is all in Switzerland and even there they are not immuned to it. And so, I try to hard to find the hope and to carve a little peace in my world and then share that with folks like you. Blessings to you!!!

    Pastor Donna, you always have such intelligent,spiritually healing, vlogs. Your messages are very helpful to me, as I try to deal with this world sickness. We are in some very uncertain times, and my faith in god is what gives me peace. I hope you are feeling better.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, we are in uncertain times and I guess as the election gets closer I get more unsettled. But yes faith in God and eyes lifted to the hills in which our help comes! Feeling better. Sending you blessings and hugs!

  • @gplourdes
    @gplourdes 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    What a sight! That owl was stunningly gorgeous!!...(as is Fritz!😚) P.S. The "Live With Love" row of pumpkins...👍👍👍 And....I so get "world sickness". For me, conflict everywhere weighs on me. Locally and globally. I retreat to my wee cave/abode, pray, rest/recharge, then when led to go back out into the world, I'm humbled by God's presence...(even in the chaos and conflict). May that heaviness you're experiencing be lifted as peace and faith increased.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you for coming to the farm and spending time with me! Yes, that owl was such a God moment. I head my head down on my run/walk as it has been warm and so there have been snakes out in the leaves sunning themselves. But at that moment I lifted my eyes up from the ground, I spotted the owl. It didn't move, even as I got closer. I was able to zoom my camera in on it some more. As I walked away, its head kept turning to watch me. It was beautiful. I just love these little gifts in nature...they are the things that help lift my heavy heart. That and having people like you join me on my crazy journey of trying to live life with love and always seeing God in everything. Blessings to you!!

    Good morning and I love your positive messages, devotionals and scenery of beautiful mountains and Fritz. I am a Christian and we celebrated growing up the fun and joy of Halloween. I lost a family member so love learning about All Souls Day and different holidays. Continue to share your own magic (good), and light.✨️

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I never grew up with the tradition of All Saints and All Souls Day...but now that I am older and have learned about its history and their meaning, well, I just find it so comforting. I have always enjoyed Halloween, but now I am enjoying more the rituals of All Saints and find it a great way to usher in a new month by slowing down, remembering and centering ourselves before all the secular Christmas noise begins. Thank you for being part of Old Stone Well Farm! Blessings!

    Pastor Donna, We love and appreciate you and the ministry God has placed you in. I feel so bad for the people that unsubscribed because of their lack of truly understanding. This is a terrible loss for them. There was such a meaningful and powerful message in your pumpkin prayer walk. Jesus was treated this same way by people, and is still being treated this way by many today, where people have turned against Him. I pray their eyes will be opened. Please keep doing exactly what you are doing. You are right in God's will for your life. What a blessing you are!!! It's a true walk with God, when a person can say they want God's will for their life. God, I want Your will and plan...not mine. This is exactly who you are Pastor Donna!! Thank you again!! You are a blessing!!

    Thank you for this beautiful video. I am new to your channel and am so glad to discover it. I have subscribed. These three days have always meant a great deal to me even as a child. What child does not love dressing up for Halloween and going door to door for treats. But even in childhood I knew there was more to these days than that. I was fortunate to be raised in a tradition that observed All Saints Day and All Souls Day. Now that I have become an elder orphan I think I appreciate these days even more. While I am always aware of the thin line that separates this world from the other and while I always feel the presence of my family who are no longer part of this earthly world I feel them closer than ever at this time of the year. And this brings me comfort, joy and peace.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      What a blessing to have you part of the Old Stone Well Farm family, where you are not an "elder orphan" but one of many! :) And what a blessing that you grew up with the Hallowtide tradition. While I was familiar with All Saints Day, I didn't grow up with observing these days. But was I get older, I am embracing them as I, too, find such comfort and joy remembering that thin space between this world and the other. We are never alone. That great cloud of witnesses is always close by. Sending you hugs and blessings.

I think what hurts the most is the scooping out of the insides. The insides of my pumpkins are never really clean. I always give up and let some seeds and gooey pumpkin mush remain.

    This is such a good video!! I can relate to your term world sickness, and I really like the way you weave history into everything. I also crave your slow and simple life. I know it may not feel slow and simple all the time, but compared to mine, it looks slow and simple. Thank you for bringing my focus back to what matters. The Halloween pumpkin tradition is incredible. Keep up the good work. It matters.

      Thank you so much for your kind words and coming to the farm to join me. The pumpkin tradition actually began years ago at the first church I was pastor of. The village received many trick or treaters and so I wondered what could we do for Halloween that wasn't scary. That's when I thought about the pumpkin message. I do believe the church has continued the tradition. :) Blessings to you!

    Hello Pastor donna , I am writing to you because I have the impression that you have been silent for a few days . I hope all is well despite the sickness of this world. I understand that one can withdraw from this world but know that your videos touch a lot of people. Your simplicity and honesty on different subjects are powerful. Take care of yourself.

      Such a joy to read your note. Yes, a bit silent since the U.S. elections...so much to process, and on top of recent events many pressing deadlines for my day job. I will be back very soon I hope! :) Blessings to you!

    Donna, your pumpkin prayer walk was beautiful. It was clear how some of the comments and lost viewers has upset you. Yes, do stay true to yourself. I keep trying to live with Love but don’t get it right. I guess I just have to keep going, keep trying and keep faith.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I am so glad you enjoyed it. Yes, it did allow the negativity to take hold. Perhaps I was tired, stressed...just not feeling 100%. That's often when little stones in our shoes bother us the most. I, too, haven't mastered the living with love completely yet...but you are right that we just keep trying. Every day we wake up is a new day to start again. Blessings to you!

      @oldstonewellfarm likewise, so your post was nice to watch. I have a special devotion to the souls in purgatory and pray for them daily, and with many saint friends/intercessors, All Saints is great too.

    It's true. There's a bad spirit bringing people down. A feeling of hopelessness seeks to grab whoever will allow it to fill their minds. Let us turn our hearts and thoughts to the Great Creator in whom there is all hope and cling closely to the hem of HIS garment. That is where all of our thoughts will be in love and righteousness... Refuse the downer spirit that's so thick out there! Love Him ! Praise HIM ! HE alone is worthy to be praised because He died for us! " Great peace have they that love thy law and nothing shall offend them." Psalms 119:165 KJV

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Amen! That best cure for hopelessness is turning our eyes to the One who is holding us all.
      We need to keep reminding one another of that so that negativity doesn't take over. Thank you for your words!! Blessings to you!

    Hi I really love your video and channel. Are you an Episcopalian minister? I am a Catholic and this reminds me of my church too. Tomorrow is All Saints Day Mass. My daughter is a Catholic teacher and she cant wait to see the kids come in their Saint costumes. I am sorry that people do not understand and deleted you. I love everything you said. The world sickness is so true and sad. I try to step back from the news and pray for the best of our country. God Bless!

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh I love that the children will dress as their favorite Saints! How wonderful. I am so thrilled to hear that you enjoy Old Stone Well Farm. It is passion of mine and I thank God for this opportunity He has given me to share my life and rambling thoughts - and faith - with others. There was a moment in my seminary days where I entertained the thought of becoming an Episcopalian priest. Rather, I was ordained 17 years ago as a Presbyterian...after spending many years as a New York City editor/reporter in the fashion industry. God's ways are mysterious, but always wonderful. I, too, am spending time away from the news these days...it's best to tune it out and turn to God in prayer. Sending you my best and many blessings!

    Don’t worry about what people think because the way you express yourself and believe has nothing to do with religion. It’s just that there’s so much hate and nobody loves when people love they’ve always got to express them selves with hate and that’s very sad. You’re right this world is going through a lot and wish people would love. I said I hate one another.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for the reminder not to let hate win. We must continue to love and to shine our lights. It is just too easy to hate...love is the better way. Thank you for your note and for joining me here at the farm. Sending you many blessings!

    I’ve been sick with “world sickness” for about 2 years now. Seems like it’s getting worse. This year I stopped decorating my 1757 home for holidays - and Christmas is usually my favorite time of the winter. Last year I forced myself to decorate colonial style. This year, I’ve done nothing. I just don’t feel it. I do know Jesus wasn’t born in December. Feels like there is a lot of lying going around. So December just doesn’t feel right for Christmas - because as a farmer of baby animals, you see most livestock/animals being born in Spring. So when you know - you know. I too, hope this passes. Because it gets depressing.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I can relate to not decorating. Last year, I didn't decorate like I often do, just wasn't feeling it nor did I have the time. I have come to realize it's okay to embrace where you are in life and that there are no rules for what has to be done in terms of holiday celebrations. For everything there is a season....holding you in my prayers. May the light of Christ shine abundantly on your path! Blessings!

  • @tracySotto
    @tracySotto 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The pumpkin prayer walk was beautiful. Some Christian holidays are pagan origin, so if Jesus is ok with using these holidays to teach, we should be too. You gained a subscriber with me. Jesus lost followers too when he spoke cuz they didn't like what he said, pretty sure it was when he said they would drink his blood and eat his body, when talking of communion, so you're in good company. Shows you're following in his footsteps. Be you. God loves you.
    Ps. You could do TH-cam membership for more deeper messages and a safer space. I'd join 😊

    Its not demonizing others to speak truth.God's Word is truth.His Word says not to conform to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your minds.Romans 12:2. Urging Christians not to copy the behavior or customs of this world.

    • @oldstonewellfarm
      @oldstonewellfarm  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It was a way of telling the story of Christ in a way that nonbelievers could understand. Jesus even taught like that, using the imagery and symbols of everyday things around him in the telling of his parables. I am so glad you came to the farm and joined me. Many blessings to you!
