Epidemic Sound
To everyone concerned with my makeup. I have never claimed to not struggle with this world and being of the world. My prayer is that you focus on Scripture I share than what I am doing, than my home, and my life. As I AM NOT THE PERFECT EXAMPLE FOR YOU. Let me repeat, you should NOT be looking at me, but JESUS CHRIST as your example. He is perfect, I am not. ❤ May God bless you all. 🙏
I think your makeup looks very pretty & natural, not over done or worldly.
Just throw the make up away. We don't need makeup. The make up contains nasty chemicals and women get cancer from it.
Well said- I’m one of seven children of a godly homemaker and she was awesome in every way.she always took care of her appearance every day- wore dresses every day( even mowed the grass in a dress😀) she and my father were the perfect couple - so respectful of each other. The time was the 40’s and the 50’s - the most wonderful time in our American history.
@@joelbuzbee1750 Oh my goodness, even mowed in a dress. How beautiful! Sounds like a lovely relationship I hope my husband and I can strive for. 7 children, bless your parents!
You're beautiful. I feel better with makeup on too. Others need not judge . I'm thinking of the Bible verse 1Samuel 16:7, that says," Man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks on the heart ". ❤️ God bless you. I love the title of your video that's what " attracted " me to your channel.
I recently came across your channel. I was a nurse for 7 years until a car accident injured me and now I’m home with the kids. I see God’s hand in the situation but I am struggling. Struggling trusting God to provide financially, struggling submitting to my husband, and struggling with a changing lifestyle. I’m homeschooling as well. Thank you for your videos. They truly encourage me and remind me that God is all I need. This isn’t a season of life I ever saw myself in but while I’m here and waiting on direction I feel as though I’m where I’m supposed to be and your videos remind me of that.
❤️ You have a beautiful testimony. It is definitely hard to surrender yourself to Him and His plan for you. I still struggle with this all the time. What a blessing you are to your family. I know you are taking all of the wonderful skills from nursing and applying it to your teaching and care for your family. You may not know it, but your story may impact more people than you know and may bring them to a stronger faith.❤️ Surrender yourself to Him everyday, that's all we can do. God bless you and your beautiful family. Thank you for commenting, and allowing yourself to be vulnerable.❤️
There is a book called Surrendered Wife by Laura Doyle and a second by her called Empowered wife. I highly recommend them regarding your struggle with submission. ❤
@@BugsyB1979 I was skeptical but I got the book and I love it. It’s so easy to read because it’s so relatable. I feel better already. It’s nice to not try to control everything.
Hi, still have a license? Ever considered working from home? (CM, UM,DM)
I wanted to pass on what I heard a pastor speak on--some years ago. He was saying how men have been forever "beating women over the head" with the "submitting to your husband' scripture. He was teaching about how in the original language--the word used actually means "cling to". Not submit, as the English translation says! Scripture (English translation) also says to husbands and wives--"submit to ONE ANOTHER". CLING TO--one another. Interesting how knowing the original wording/language can completely change the meaning from what we've been told. This is why I believe marriages are a partnership, both people working in harmony. Not one being above--with the other below in a subservient position. Translations certainly weren't perfectly done... and in some cases errors such as this can produce problems. Because of what I've learned from that brave pastor--if I have a question about a scripture word, I don't hesitate to check the original Hebrew or Greek. I want to know what was ACTUALLY said in the original context.
I wanted to be a Stay at Home Mom but my husband has left me.
I’m so thankful that there are women out their who believe in a traditional marriage and home.
I'm so sorry. You are doing even more incredible things, with greater strength than me, doing it alone. ❤️
Sister I need it to hear this so so much!
My husband left me in December 2021. So 2 years ago. I know exactly where you are sister! It does get better and the pain lessens. I am now a single mom but there have been many blessings since my husband left ❤
I will pray for your marriage to be restored and that your husband becomes a godly husband
I am single and it hurts to see posts like this. I pray God will continue to strengthen you and restore you immensely. God bless you
I was a full time homemaker in the 80's and 90's. My husband was able to provide a very comfortable living for us by the grace of God. I would never trade in those years with my 3 children as we looked forward to dad coming home from work. I call those years my golden years.
My Mother put makeup on every day of her life even when house keeping. A lost art😉
My grandma used to call it ‘putting on her face’ and it was a ritual for her to put her makeup on. As I am getting older, I am getting into my own similar ritual and I feel more beautiful when I do. ❤
Thank you for your video! I live in Ukraine during a full-scale war with Russia, so your channel is a real refuge for my soul. May God bless you and give you peace!
Praying for you ❤️
Greetings from New Zealand. Sending my Christian love to you.
@@user-oo8ei4lj6s ❤
God bless you. I’m praying for you safety❤
God be with you dear friend!! Praying for you and your country... I pray the war comes to an end quickly..
I wanted to be a stay at home mom, but my husband became very abusive and so I had to divorce him and raise our sons myself. I had to be the mom and the dad, the home maker and the bread winner. They are grown now, but two (twins) are still at home and working towards making their own lives. I’m extremely exhausted and tired and sick of working. I’m a night shift nurse and I’ve been having to work full time for 36 years. If you get to be a home maker and not have to work outside of the home but get to focus on your family as a woman should be able to do you are VERY VERY blessed.
Sorry to hear this for you. I pray you get your breakthrough
for all the tribulations that you've experienced, may God bless your strong and beautiful soul.May God grant your hearts purest desire..and may the angels of the Lord always protect you from any harm..a virtual huuuuuuggg for you to somehow ease your exhaustion and tiredness from this overwhelming world..
(Philippians 4:7)❤
Maybe your kids will make you a stay at home grandmother
The greatest women are those who fear the Lord. Not necessarily those who are homemakers. God knows your heart. Cast all your cares on Him. 🕊️💜🕊️
Never stop caring for yourself. I’m a SAHM for 30 years (13 kids) and my husband has often thanked me for taking care of myself instead of just letting myself go
We change as we age we change as we birth .Its about time men love women with all the changes God has put before us
Changing shouldnt stop someone from taking care of themselves Dear
@@NileGoddessAmen!
@@NileGoddess Our bodies do change with those things, however a lot of the negative change comes from not caring for yourself. Not eating right, not exercising and doing other harmful things. We should never expect ourselves to be as we were before having kids or when we were 20 years younger or even 10 but we should expect ourselves to be the best version of our current selves we can be. That means caring for your body and feeding it correctly and making time to move it and other stuff. Age and children should never be an excuse to put our bodies in a bad state.
What a beautiful woman you are! God bless 🙏
I'm about to cry. I am a 23 year old girl (I say girl because I'm only now figuring out how to be feminine in Christ.) And I didn't know christian home maker channels existed! I have been craving this since I can't stay home and home make myself right now. Thank you for being here!
They do exist love, I love it here..check Vicky Mwanandimayi too, great anointed contents.
I'm older than you, and I am still figuring out how to be a feminine in Christ. It's a journey, no one ever arrives. A homemaker is for any woman, at any age. You can be a homemaker even if you work outside the home.
@@truthandbeautyco Very well said. I am 60 with an empty nest but I still make my home as a peaceful place for health and a creative sanctuary.
@@truthandbeautycono, you can't be a home maker, nor feminine if you work outside the home.
I am a full time homemaker and a conservative mom of 3 under 6 and we keep getting displaced. We have moved 10 times in our 14 years of marriage due to poverty and/or bad landlords. I don't believe we will ever be able to own a home. It has sunk me in to such a depressed state that I struggle to get out of bed to even maintain what I do have which we will be loosing soon due to inability to pay the price of. Please pray that God will provide us a permanent place.
Praying for you. 🙏 You are stronger than you even realize.
Your story sounds so similar to ours! I was saddened by having to move so often (for my children's sakes), mostly because it was difficult to make, and keep any kind of community when we were changing the location of our kid's activities so often. However, even though God blessed me with the fairly natural ability to be content wherever we were, even with the moving, my husband was getting very depressed. So one day I had the idea to look at houses on the opposite side of the country (Eastern Canada), where buying a house was actually a realistic possibility, even on one income. So after some prayer and research, we took the plunge and headed out here. Within a very very stressful year and several moves in our new province, the Lord graciously provided us with a home in a rural part of the province. We had to leave our church family, any family that we still had contact with, and have to make sacrifices all the time by being so rural with now 6 children, but we finally don't have to move anymore, Lord willing. I pray for you that the Lord will provide a more long-term home for your precious family---even if it is something like a long-term rental. But until then, or if not ever, I pray you all can be able to embrace wherever the Lord leads you, how ever often that is. ❤❤❤. For you can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens you. ❤
At 60 and never married, no children, I am definitely poor. You are right, though, about relying on God and the Blessed Virgin Mary daily. This is the greatest blessing in my life. The other was taking care of my parents until they passed. Have a blessed Christmas!
If you have Jes u s Christ as your Risen Savior you are rich So many people have large families , houses , bank accounts big titles but none of that can get them into heaven Only Jesus who took our place No human priest , not the virgin Mary She needed a Savior too The Bible says Jesus John 3:16 Speaks of Jesus asSavior
God Bless you. We share Christ's love. Merry Christmas to you sweet sister 🙏🎄❤️
Having parents to take care if when you are an adult is a blessing g This October it was 60 years ago my dad died I was 7 years old Vack then you had to be 14 years old to visit a patient in the hospital I saw President Kennedy in Waterbury, Ct as he drove past the Green When I heard that He had been shot I thought of his daughter Caroline She was like me -shedidn't have a daddy either My mom suffered from bipolar which really took over when I was a senior in high school. My mom was in and out oc psychology hospitals then nursing g homes She died when I was 40 .It always made me feel uncomfortable being asked about my parents because everyone around me had parents
@@debc315my parents are deaf mute. I'm an only child. My life has been hard always having to be an interpreter and translator. I was suicidal at 8 years old all the way up to my age now . My birthday is January 5 . I have been through 2 divorces all my 3 boys have 3 different fathers. I am severely depressed have been all my life. I am so jealous of you because I have failed as a mother.and have been doomed since birth .
I bet you are rich in spirit…Merry Christmas
As a stay at home wife and mother of 5 little ones, homeschooling and disengaging from any and all social media, no more public schooling, we believe each day God is teaching us how to be better as a family. My husband works from dark until dark, and I'm here with our children doing all we can do.
Thanks for the refreshment of the Lord's word! 🙏 merry Christmas 🎄
I love this so much! That is what I want for my family too. You are doing amazing things! Your children will benefit so much from your love, devotion, and sacrifice. ❤️
5?! I'm at home with two under 4, also from dark to dark. Some days are so hard. God bless you, Mama.
But you are on TH-cam
Being ABLE to stay at home with the kiddo’s and being a homemaker is a blessing in itself, but not always possible. Living a modest life is usually not the issue. I was lucky enough to be able to stay at home when my children were little, but medical issues made it necessary for me to “work for insurance”. No matter. I still feel blessed in so many ways and I thank our Lord Jesus Christ every day. I am so happy to see families striving for a simpler life and living according to biblical teachings. Thank you for being the salt and sharing scripture. 🥰 🙏
I can relate to you. I'll be praying for you.
Im a Man and I have been around for 63 years!!!!! This Lady " is What I want , in a Women that has Depth!!!! What a quality Person........
You just want a woman who does makeup for you, cooks, cleans, takes care of you and your children and their wellbeing. While you men would go out cheat, come home and throw your dominance over her
I feel so relaxed except that my cheeks are slightly sore from smiling so much 😂😂😂 because of your uncluttered blessed life in Christ. You are an inspiration. My life and home is too cluttered. Your husband and children are truly blessed having you in their lives. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on scripture with us. God bless you all.
The hot water kills the yeast. That is probably why it isn't rising. When I make challah I let is rise 2 hours before braiding and the another 30 mins after that.
It is refreshing to see the Younger Generation taking Homemaking to a New Level! Thank you for your Encouraging Words!🙏 I sense God's Spirit in your Home! So beautiful! ❤. New Subscriber 🤗
Detachment is the key to success and happiness
I just joined your channel. I am now very close to God and remember the days when I was addicted to shopping and always searching for things to make me happy. I am a new person now and I love your videos which are really helping so many people.
What a beautiful testimony, and a good reminder for all of us that things can't bring us happiness. I appreciate you sharing, and all your kind words!
Thank you. Please continue your beautiful and much needed videos. Even this 74 year old grandma needs to hear these words and be reminded of things of the world. I struggle with my time watching television’s mindless shows wasting my time that is oh so very needed tending to our home. May God bless you in your journey on this format❣️
I have wasted so much time on mindless shows. Amen to what you said! God bless you as well ❤️
I also struggle with tv\social media.
Cut off cable. The best thing I did.
I enjoyed very much listening to and watching this episode. Thank you.❤️
I am a 46 year old grandmother to 3 precious children. You have inspired me, spiritually and practically and I BLESS you my beautiful sister in Christ Jesus! You are so beautiful to our Heavenly Father 😍
It's important to detach from toxic people. Who see the world in every good blessings of God.
Have nothing to covit sister, you have everything. I love your home, it is simple, not cluttered. It is clean and pure, what a lovely life! God bless you and keep you! Shalom
My husband and I bought a wreck of a home almost twenty years ago. We had to gut the place and it still isn't put back together and I really struggle with that because it's the kitchen that is so ugly and just a mess. It's difficult to cook and it's my daily workshop. Please pray that my husband will see the need and take action. I've had the patience of JOB these past twenty years.
I will be praying! ❤️
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse Thank you!
I recently discovered your channel as I returned back to church. I was raised Catholic but stopped practicing for several years, now I’m praying the rosary with my husband who is not Catholic and I hope the Lord blesses my home.
Yay! That's so great. I didn't technically "leave" the Church, just didn't go super often. My husband wasn't Catholic at this point either. He just joined the Church last Easter! He started with the Rosary and Bible in a Year before making any decisions. We've been married for almost 10 years now. 3ish years ago I really looked into Catholicism and how it relates to Scripture, and my heart was set on fire. ❤️ Praying for you, don't underestimate the power of the Rosary! Prays to the Father and Mary's intercession can do amazing things!
@@faithfulacresfarmhouseCatholicism is a starting point, but is definitely not the place to stay my dear sisters in Christ.
Jesus is the only way. No way to the Father but by Him. Mary is not our intercessor. Jesus is.
I beg you to ask God for discernment regarding Catholicism
Mother Mary is so close to Jesus, her Son. She is the perfect intercessor! Please don’t tell people to reject catholicism, it is the Church that Jesus Himself started.
@@kathiweston2731 Everyone should accept The Word of God only. Whatever is closes to the manuscripts by the majority over the longest period of time. Jesus said He is the ONLY way. Surly our God isn’t a liar.
Romans 8:34 states " Jesus is at the right hand of God interceding for us" Hebrews 7:25 states "Jesus always lives to intercede for us" Nowhere in scripture does it says Mary is our intercessor.@@kathiweston2731
Immediate subscription just from your title. Thank you for this. I struggle so much. As another person said in these comments, I was a nurse for 5 years and unable to do it anymore. I feel like I lost my identity and who I was. I struggle with not being good enough because I’m not fulfilling that role. I so appreciate you even touching on this topic.
Thank you so much! You did great things and helped so many people with nursing. ❤️ I have definitely felt that way in a few of my previous jobs too. You're not alone.
I know the Lord allowed me to come across this video and the comments as well. Because I've been a nurse for 25 years, and in 2018 I had to leave nursing due to an autoimmune issue which has been such a challenge to my physical health. Our children are grown and have their own homes and families so I had such a difficult time transitioning to being at home and not being able to help others through nursing as I once could. I found myself having more time to seek the Lord and pray for others which gave me a renewed sense of purpose in this season of my life. I did teach myself to knit and crochet to make blankets and scarfs for the homeless and for newborns. I hope to be able to return to nursing one day if that's the Lord's plan. Yet I've learned to be content in all circumstances and situations just like Paul teaches us in God's Word. Thank you for this channel and for those other nurses who shared a comment. This nurse was blessed to know that I'm not alone, and that God has me and (us) right where we're supposed to be❤
@@MissionsRN thank you so much for taking the time to share your story. It means a lot to me to hear from others and how you’re getting along. I struggle with not being able to care for others as well because that is the reason I became a nurse! I had to leave bedside nursing due to severe panic attacks. I often miss it and want to return but know I simply cannot do it. That is upsetting to me. I have two teenagers but they honestly don’t require much care. I love that you found a hobby you can enjoy! Hang in there and God bless you 💓
I'm with you - it would be different if we left nursing and had a family to love and be loved by. Many say they "get it" but they don't....a lot harder. I was a nurse for 25 years, then was left for dead when I fell very ill in 2020 with no medical help which was traumatizing. Lost a lot of"friends' but don't take it personally....every one is addicted to their screens and selves. It's travesty. From one nurse to another, I really get it. I was in it when it was good, before Obamacare and then up to 2020....suffocating valleys.
She doesn't need makeup, but she wears it very nicely.
Hello from Canada! Your loving care in homemaking is healing to watch. Thank you for the blessing of your example. Cheers!
You had me at the start fully engrossed and then all the sudden you went into a basically a makeup tutorial like a typical influencer of the day.
Okay dokay!
Yes, that confused me
@@PurpleWolfer yes? Good, I'm not the only one
One of the first worldly things I gave up was makeup! It costs so much money and time and it's not good for your skin, fresh air and sunshine make a beautiful face! A big temptation for women!!
@@cynthianussbaum3623 I agree with you
I have been having a hard time lately and this was very uplifting for me. Thank you for uplifting me today and reminding me that God has me in everything
im only 20 and hearing those words coming from u, really makes me feel calm and think that there still someon spreading the words of God. I prayed that someday in the future, ill be going to be like u, i do really admire how you live ur life away from those earthy things
Still working on removing earthly desires. 😊 Slowly but surely I'll get there.
This is amazing, I just finished studying Matthew chapter 5. I looked up Christian minimalism and came across your channel. May God bless you and your journey in life. ❤
I'm so happy to see your channel and grateful to know other women want to please the father and live Holy and except able to Him.Being separate from the World is really a Blessed Life.🕊️❤️🤗
I think you are way better off not using social media. I think your lifestyle is wonderful. We should all be focusing on Jesus and our family instead of material things. I love the idea of living simple with just what you need and not craving all these outside worldly objects that really don’t add to the good of your soul. And looking attractive for your husband is wonderful.
A lot of men prefer au naturale.
I was a SAHM for a while then got thrown into becoming a single mama who struggles with homemaking while having to work and remembering who I am in Christ. This is refreshing. I feel like I have friends walking with me through my valley, pointing me back to God and his mission for my kiddos, and sharing a recipe along the way. THANK YOU!!
How are you holding up? And how did get thrown into being a single mama?
I love your heart! And I love doing a bread like that on Fridays to bring in the Sabbath. My family loves to eat it on Saturday mornings, and will snack on it throughout the day, which helps me to be able rest more on Saturday, and spend more time reading God's word. I'm missing making it lately because it has been too hot to bake lately. God bless you sweet sister ❤
Amen to the Bible reading. I just found your channel, and I love it. Praise God! Let us do everything unto Him. ✝
She loves makeup...Bible is against it..

What an uplifting support!
You encapsulate so well the desire to take seriously your role in the home, “I would get ready and look good for any other job, so why wouldn’t I do that for my family?” Love, love the scripture reading and your sharing as you decorate - golden! Bless you and your brood, my sister! 🎀
I like A.w. Pinks reading of Poor in Spirit, " It is the realization of my utter worthlessness which precedes the laying hold of Christ... It is the Spirit emptying the heart of self that Christ may fill it, it is a sense of need and destitution" " The one who is poor in spirit is nothing in his own eyes.." Lovely channel, so good to see young Christian mothers sharing their faith.
@JerryL........lovely comment. I love Pinks writings, full of truth and wisdom. Praise God. Bless you dear one.❤
So very glad I found you. When I was a little girl I asked my grandmother why she never went to the movies and she told me because it was a worldly thing and that we were not supposed to partake of worldly things. And I have never forgoten that. But as you say, it is very very difficult for us to live up to that. But we must always try and pray to do it better. So my prayers are with you, myself and others who are trying to separate ourselves from worldly things. And thank you so much for all of your words and for this video.
Thank you. Praise God.
Love your message and sweet heart to homemaking. I was a homeschooler when it wasn’t accepted and struggled with not having a career
As I look back I would never trade my days with my children it was my greatest achievement and joy❤️
I have been finding myself feeling suffocated with all the stuff I have. You have inspired me to liquidate what I have.
I recently came across your channel and it has been a blessing. I had to pause this at around 16:45 because you were really speaking to my heart. My parents were, and still are if allowed, very mentally and emotionally abusive to my brother and myself. For this reason, I gravitated more toward my paternal grandmother. She was everything I wanted to be when I grew up. She is my biggest influence in all that I do. She passed away 3 years ago, and I realized in her death I had made her an idol. She was my Jesus even though she was always pointing me toward the real Jesus all the time. I have grown so much in my faith and my relationship with the real Jesus that I realized how much of Him I was missing and needed so desperately! I miss my Mema so deeply that I greive and my chest becomes tight just mentioning her name but I needed her death to push me towards Jesus and fully leaning on Him. Please keep sharing what God is putting on your heart! You are furthering His Kingdom with your videos and sharing God through your ministry! Thank you for following where the Lord leads you that we all may be blessed by Him through you! ❤
Thank you so much for opening up. I'm so sorry your family had / still has to deal with that. I love that you were close to your grandma and looked up to her. What a powerful realization you had about idolizing her and not Jesus. That is something we can all so easily do (I have done it lots!) The fact you came to that conclusion is huge, many people know still idolize others over Jesus. This is such a beautiful testimony which pointed you to Jesus. ❤️ This is very inspiring, and I pray others will use their pain and grieving to find Him as well. I'm so glad you shared.
Oh my dear sister in Jesus, you exude the Lord's love here and it is not your make up, hair, or anything that you place upon your body, it is your spirit that touches people. Your video, which thankfully I just discovered, is meditative and provides a glimpse into normalcy that many is so rare today.
Sadly our society are programed to think that appearance and profession trump all else. Watching you with your precious little ones brought me back to my childhood and that of my children's. My heart hurts when I see children punked in front of a T.V. as a way to keep the children occupied. My children, from toddler stage, were involved in everything I did.
Like most people, I struggled with loving God more than anyone on this earthly plane but after a near death accident where Jesus, our savior, came to me, the all encompassing love from Him is beyond description. I did not want to come back to my life, but He told me it was not yet my time and that my purpose had not been completed.
Dear Kelsey, just know that your videos are so important and provide for people, a window into the beauty of our Heavenly Father's word and love. Keep shining your light and be blessed.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What a powerful message you shared! Thank you 😊 I couldn't imagine the near death accident, and encountering Jesus! What a testimony. And yes, there is so much technology that both adults and children are sucked into so much screen time. Children can definitely miss out on precious moments of learning with their parents. Thank you for your kind words. 🥰
Thanks i found your channel. I really looking for a Christian channels that inspired me about life and home making
Thankful to God for your refreshing spirit and encouragement to spend time with the Lord to focus my attention on Him. Perfect timing as I was spending time with my mom and I was placing expectations on her and you reminded me I just need to spend more time with God. I love your life style I want to detach myself from this world more and more and let the Holy Spirit in and spend time with God instead. I love this video and thank you for sharing the Word of God and encouraging us to spend time with Him and to stop comparing and get distracted from the illusion and temporary pleasures. God I want you more! May the Lord greatly bless you and your family! Truly blessed by this!
So excited to hear you mention the Word on Fire Bible. One of my best friends, Nick, designed the whole thing! He is so talented, and we love ours!
Really?! I loveeee The Word on Fire. I'm so excited for them all to be out! He did a great job!
Thank you:) Just found your channel today. Retired a year and half ago from 31 year career of teaching due to health issues. I work part time in a ministry now. I worked through my children's growing years and regret it. I am hoping to show that to my daughter when she is ready to have children. I also want to be there to help with my grandchildren. In the last two years God has pulled me away from the World to work on my family life and the ministry I am in. I spend time daily thanking God for what I have, and to not covet material items.
This is such a beautiful testimony! I was only a teacher for a brief second, but I do know teaching is not just a career. The amount of children and lives you have helped shape and care for cannot be counted. I think it's so beautiful and powerful that you want to speak to your children and encourage them to be home with their kids. 🥰 You being there for your grandchildren, too, will be such a blessing for both your children and grandchildren. Thank you so much for sharing! I do believe many need to hear this!
You are so blessed to have your grandmas ! I miss mine so much 😢
First, I want to say that just yesterday my fiance and I were talking about how to protect our future children from the world as we raise them and then boom...your video pops up. I also want to thank you for your courage to talk about homemaking AND the bit about makeup as a Christian woman...so many women struggle with this trying to please others (rather worldly OR falsely religious) and it causes so much unnecessary division. Thank you
This was absolutely beautiful. My family and I are in a transitional period, waiting on the Lord for a home, a business, and everything we didn't give away or sell is in storage. The Lord is doing such a work to strip away all the attachments and identity I placed even in good things, like homemaking and motherhood. If all I have is my Bible and my family, will I be okay? Absolutely. Has it been difficult to learn that? Incredibly. But I know it will all be worthwhile to walk more closely with the Lord.
What a beautiful testimony. God has also striped attachments away from me as well. Although at the time it isn't easy, it does pull us closer to Him. What a great reminder for us all! So glad you shared ❤️
I just found your channel today. It was inspired that I found your channel. A few days ago , I decided to live purposely for God and not this world. Then today your video pops up first when I turned on You Tube. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
Bless you proverbs 31 woman!
I see peace love and joy in what you do thank you! God Bless you and family always my Sister in Christ🩷
We cannot fully detach ourselves from this world, it's guarding our heart from following the ways of the world.
The makeup is not you though . It’s changing how you look
@user-hq6ws9zc1g So is dressing up or changing your hair, or many other things, but none of these things are sinful. If you focus more on vanity than God or other things or you have an unhealthy attatchment to them, that is another thing. We have free will to indulge in such things from time to time if we so choose, but at the end of the day, we know that our relationship with God trumps all.
Thank you for this powerful video. God Bless.
I am new to your channel, so hello! Also, I am not Christian but I really do love these Christian homemaker videos because I am a homemaker. But, this subject is something I struggle with so I loved your video! Thank you!
I really like the candlelight at the kitchen sink. What a cozy touch!
And I especially enjoyed your sharing of scripture! Thank you.
You have a beautiful, peaceful looking home
Your message touched my heart! Thank you for following the Holy Spirit in sharing! ❤
Gentle loving and honest. Thank you! 🥰🙏🏽♥️ I prayed for you!
Thank you! I need all the prayers! Praying for you too. 🙏
I just found your channel I'm enjoying your homemaking with the Lord our Saviour being the center. Galatians 6:9
Thank you!
So glad I found your channel. It is very inspiring. I believe I can learn a lot on here.

I'm so glad! ❤️
Happy to be watching this today. Just subscribed. What a lovely life your giving your children. ❤
I really love this video and how you shared the scripture, your heart, your home, and how you shared how imperfect we all are. Thank you so much for sharing this with us and the truth of God's word that sets us free from this world. God bless you and your lovely family.
Lovely 😊
Wow I needed to hear this my spirit has felt heavy for a while now and began to dream of snakes so I prayed for God to show me what I need to change in my life and the same night I opened up TH-cam and saw this video it’s a real wake up call for me thanks for sharing.
How beautiful! I'm so glad He is speaking to you through the Scriptures I have shared. God bless you!
This is lovely, such an inspiration ❤
Thank you for this video and message. You have a very soothing soul. May God continue to bless you and your family.
I literally had tears running down my face,as I watched and listened to this beautiful video.
I am so touched!
Your a beautiful "soul...
Thankyou..
This touches my heart. I'm so glad! ❤️
Your video popped up for me and I watched it. Very beautiful. You have a lovely home. We are struggling very much right now. So the poverty thing hit me hard. Thank you for speaking God's word.
I just came upon this and subscribed. Thank you Kelsey for these beautiful reminders of what we have through Christ. God bless you . Thank you for sharing..Sherri..Payette Idaho
Poor in spirit can also mean humble
Inspiring
Great presentation, great message, great food. Great video, spending some time with you and some family. Loved it!
Kelsey: Such a critical message in this Godless world we now live in.
Good work, sister! Thank you for sharing! It's so great to see other homemaking believers making encouraging videos. Shalom!
God bless you and your family 🙏🏻 you are a bright light in a dark world . I pray the good lord bless you in showing the world how fulfilling life can be when we serve him 🙏🏻peace and contentment is only found Jesus Christ our lord 🙏🏻🙌🏻
How lovely, beautiful and inspiring this has been listening to you today. I am gradually trying to pull away from this world and draw closer to the father and be content with less and with what I already have and not wanting what I see others have.
Me too! Love that, growing closer to the Father and becoming more content. I'm striving for that too!
He is really enough and believe me more than enough ❤️glory be to God 🙏🙏🙏
I am so blessed to have come across your channel. I love the colonial decor, the teaching and of course the little dog nose in the bread mix! LOL God bless! Can we talk about how amazing women are?? Decorating, cooking, raising children, you tube channel and teaching us all along the way!
God definitely made us to be multitaskers! Thank you for the kind words!
I love your video’s… I just found your account.. I am a Christian & stay at home Wife & mama, and this was just encouraging , thank you for doing what you do ! It’s so Nice to see someone take a stand and making videos and being so down to earth… Thank you Truly
You made a beautiful video ..beautiful house 'work' and wonderful 'spiritual' work ..thank you for sharing , indeed the Lord blesses us with amazing things .
❤🙏🕊❤️🇧🇪
My lady, Your need and WORDS is inspiring, I hear You.
What we were taught is not who we are, but who we spontaneously do and say is who we are.
REMAIN BLESSED.
I ❤ The Beatitudes from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. That's a beautiful braided Challah bread. You're blessed to still have your Grandmothers.
Your channel is a breath of fresh air.
NO LIES APART FROM THE TRUTH OF THE BIBLE THAT US WOMEN DONT NEED MAKEUP AND SHOULD WEAR A COVERING ON OUR HEAD BECAUSE WE MAY NEED TO PRAY FOR A SITUATION AND WE SHOULD BE READY. YOUR ALREADY A BEAUTIFUL LADY NATURALLY, ANYWAYS I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL. I LOVE YOUR STYLE OF HOMEMAKER. LORD JESUS CHRIST CONTINUE TO BLESS MY SISTER AND HER FAMILY.
I didnt realize i needed this so much, but i definitely do. I will focus on these verses and be praying over them. Over us. Over our kids that we would be detached from this world that doesnt even truly satisfy, but attach fully to God. Thank you for sharing this 🙏 God bless you 🙏 ❤️
I totally agree about getting ready for the day helps your overall mood and productivity. We have all 3 of the Magnolia Table cookbooks and just love just about every recipe we’ve made from them so far. I made the chicken n’ dumplings this week which I’ve made several times now, but I do halve the recipe.
When I was living alone several years ago I decided not to go on my laptop for a whole weekend and it was nice. But then on Monday I couldn’t get it to work anymore 😅 I was testing myself to see if I wanted to get rid of Internet but I never did since that’s how I pay my bills. But I do think there’s so many more things I could have done back then if I hadn’t been addicted to Pinterest and Netflix. Nowadays I am so busy with homemaking, work, motherhood, and being a wife that I have to sometimes force myself to slow down and take a break sometimes.
That bread looks amazing! Have a beautiful week Kelsey! ❤❤
I have all 3 as well and love them! My husband and I talk about that all the time. All of the time we wasted before kids binge watching Netflix was suchhhhh a waste! I'm like you, I rarely get on social media and spend time scrolling. I like to listen and watch things as I fold clothes, but my children keep me busy! I actually checked my phone usable, and Marco Polo was my number 1 since I chat with friends I'm not near. The internet can definitely be good or bad. Hope you have a great week! And that sounds about typical with the laptop situatuon 🤪
I lost my job a few months ago but after watching this, I am using God’s word and the Holy Spirit to guide me in this season. It’s hard to fill my days with productivity but I believe this is my season to practice my role in the home and cleaning house as this is something I neglected because I was always working. God bless you and your family.
I love the framed print of the Praying man. My brother had that for years.....i hope he still does.
I found it at a garage sale for $2! They are on Facebook marketplace a lot.
It would be more special from your brother though!
Love the Scripture sharing and your intentionality to be content with what you have. Its taken me 45 years to get to this place, so proud of you, young momma to have this wisdom 💕
Beautiful! Enjoyed this time hearing Gods Word and your understanding of these scriptures. I have been detaching more and more… no longer on Facebook. I kept hearing Gods Word echo in my mind…live a quiet peaceful life. Now making a conscious decision to watch where we shop. Our Walmart in our precious sweet small town in East TN has begun selling ‘adult toys’. They were at eye level for children. My husband spoke with management, and our Pastor. We have to take a stand for righteousness. It will be inconvenient to shop elsewhere but we cannot justify continuing and dishonor Christ. Thankful for The Holy Spirit molding us and pruning us little by little. He is worthy and oh so grateful to be His. May He continue to bless you and your family❤️
What an encouragement! This is beautiful. I love that you are standing up for your beliefs, and fighting against the "social norm." How terrible they are bringing those things in! I love what you said, "He is molding and pruning us little by little." It's not always big changes that are made! May I share your comment in a video?
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse absolutely ❤️
I just came across ur channel tonight 😮I was taken back I love it 🥰 thank you so much for being yourself and letting us know we don’t have to be conformed to this world we as people get wrapped up in worldly things and really none of these things give us long term happiness only temporary thank you God Amen and I really love ur bread 🥖 it looks so good I am going to keep watching you 🙏🏽
