A sermon, a life lesson, a history lesson and a reality check all in one! We as a nation have allowed the politicians to dumb us down, divide us and turn us against each other. If we haven't read God's word, we believe and live in ignorance. Thanks! You and your wife make me miss the Magnolia state too.
Thanks for your message. My family has been targeted by "authorities" for many years. This culminated in a sudden episode of digestive tract illness and an overnight stay in the hospital. I was released from the hospital in hospital gowns & socks and nothing else. My son Vincent & our RV were about 8 miles away, beyond a large bridge. So I started walking. A customer at the Circle K gave $10 to the cashier to give to me. When I asked for a piece of cardboard & to borrow a marker, so I could display my destination to drivers as I walked, they told me no. Because an employee was going to drive me to my son. "Strangers" at the Circle K have been family to us way beyond blood family.
Funny I went through something similar last year. They said it was if I was poisoned however they didn't do any toxicology on me. Spent a month in a specialist hospital. They had no clue what happened to me either.
Danny, I appreciate what you had to say. I came from a family that either was too stubborn or stupid to quit. My dad walked around for years with a gangrene gal bladder. When they finally figured out what was wrong, the Dr said he'd never seen anything that bad in a person who was still living. I worked as a machined for a while and kept working through pain...Dr finally did some scans and saw I'd herniated 2 lower disc's. My brother called b.s. on me because he hurry his back and it put him down immediately... so I showed him the report (I'm a woman, now 61 yoa). Doctors keep telling me I can't and not to do allot of things, but being alone I just tell them "and who'd come and get things done? " I get so frustrated with my body and worth my adult children, when I hear them complain and give up. I have a friend who's 83 years old, that puts me to shame. He comes out and a little at a time is clearing my land so I can grow food (while my son lives at the end of the driveway and does nothing to help. ) please pray God blessed him with his own land to move to.
As a young person I wanted to hear what my grandparents would talk about how they survived the depression and what creative things they did. I love to hear their wisdom and experiences. Many things to be learned.
I'm 69. My mom died in childbirth when I was 1 1/2. My dad raised 4 kids mostly by himself. He never remarried. I stood on a chair to wash dishes when I was little. He'd bring home fabric scraps that machine parts were packed in & we'd sew our clothes out of them. I still grow most of my veggies & can them for later. Kids today don't know how good they've got it. A lot of them are in for a rude awakening. I've tried to instill in my kids a good work ethic & pray they'll be able to handle what's coming but I worry my grandkids won't be able to. The older they get the more I see it.
Random tip...if you get a boil, scrape the insides of a potato into a paste. Put it on the boil with a large bandage on top. It will come to a head after drawing out the infection by the next morning or next day. Old southern fix. Worked like a charm on me as a kid. My dad, one of twelve taught me that.
Going through difficult trials should cause us to evaluate the ways we are out of order in our lives. The last four years have been relentless tests, trials, and humbling for my family.
Over Christmas we had that deep freeze storm…my furnace went out my water froze the sewer froze and as I set to fixing things I was missing my husband who had passed 15 months prior. I hate going through these things without my partner. I cried but friends and family and even strangers lent a helping hand. Through it all my faith never wavered because God always provides. It didn’t occur to me that this Christmas was a trial until I was listening to you ❤️
Me too, 5 months ago and I have a crippling disease. I'm concerned I may have to sell my home and land but I really don't want to. I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️
A man does what he has to. Gotta pay bills n feed the family! I had a 4 wheeler wreck. Concussion. 4 broken ribs n bruised that lung. Bruised kidney n a patch of skin missing from my shoulder. Only missed 1 day of work. Why? A man does what he must do for his family. Blessed by God.
Thank you, Danny) For not being prepared ahead for what you would talk about, You did a Great Job!! So many issues; new ones every single day. Well, my husband and I have been married for 52 years, with having five children. We both worked very hard for everything we needed for our family. We were never given anything. Our parents did teach us well and we tried our best with our own children, even with some hiccups along the way. One is never truly prepared; we have no idea what is around that hairpin curve in life. We owned a beautiful old Victorian Farmhouse with three acres and renovated it to it's original charm with updates. It was truly a home for all of our family. Well, in 2006, we found we needed a new roof and furnace; we approached Wells Fargo to refinance it. They would not work with us; they wanted an astronomical amount of money in advance. We couldn't do it. So, the inevitable happened, as we just choose a lawyer from the yellow pages, not a good choice. "Lose the House" were his words. We did, but not w/o heavy hearts. We lived there for just under 25 years; our memories were all held in that home for our family. The very start of the many home losses at the time. But- We took our memories with us. So, we have been renting since 2007, "victims" of greedy landlords, mostly. Yet, as we learn in life, there are things that can happen that are far worse. We lost our daughter, Megan, our middle child 3 years later. That is our true loss, not the house. ...We may prep and plan the best that we are able; but it's that turn in the road ahead, that only our Lord plans, unforeseen to us, that govern our lives. God's plans, not ours. And we must accept all and know that He has the reason. I've never been angry with God. I know that She is with Him, and someday I will know why. Thank you,, Danny. You are so thought-provoking) Blessings to you and Wanda. (I hope those pepper seeds grow) pattie
I am reminded of an interview I watched, of a young Amish man - he'd been working and saving so that he had $50,000 saved for a down payment on his first house at 21 years old. . . and at 25, he was making more than most college graduates! I see our government is trying to persecute some of the Amish - but I have absolute confidence that they will survive and overcome!
Great porch time! As a cancer survivor who lost physical stuff and am now rebuilding, I understand. Now my stamina is gone. Cling to your family and friends, community is your wealth. Thanks Danny.
Hi Danny I love your channel just wanted to say that I am from over the pond but I love America. I am willing all your people to wake up and become a beacon of hope for the rest of the world. x
Good morning Danny!🌞☕️ I can’t tell you how much I look forward to Porch Time. I always get some type of knowledge and understanding and I have to praise the Lord because He always knows what message I need to hear to discern some aspect of my life. I’m ALWAYS amazed with God’s little ‘ah-ha’ moments, and I feel truly blessed because he lead me to Deep South Homestead.
My grandparents rolled a chicken house down the hill and turned it into a living arrangement. My husband and I bought termite damaged homes and renovated them. After a few times we settled in the last one. We subsequently do not have a mortgage. Our vehicles are all older. But paid for. We build and fix things. Grow our food. Installed our own solar system. We live simply. I lost my job in August. So I’ve learned a few more skills and hope to open a roadside stand to sell excess produce and other things we grow. Soaps. Milk. And I am trying to grow things I now buy. Like chicory for coffee. Sugar cane. Cassava. Lemon balm tea. Anything I’m able to replace, I’m going to try. I hang our laundry to dry. Preheat the water in solar collector. We do everything we can to save a nickel.
It's nice your ponds are getting filled. I am looking forward to my filling in the spring. I had possums and racoons mess with a new pond I had dug but I'll figure out how to get rid of them or do something different. There is always the unknown and unexpected we have to deal with. God will get us through those things if he allows the enemy to bring them on us. We need to keep our eyes on Him and keep our faithfulness in Him. Fire does refine us! Thanks for sharing Danny. Surviving is a lot different today than it used to be.
I'm almost 86 years old and Danny and I was raise up like you, I've lived in a home that you see the chicken walking underthe floors, my mama and I would carry all the clothes to a spring of water,where a big wash pot of water was boiling from a fire ,that my daddyhad built to heat it,our old galvanized tubs rub boards ,lye soap ,and did our washing of clothes ,bed clothes and all wring them our by hands ,hung them on a clothes line to dry in the sun, , me I was raised up In work in the fields ,gathering the food from the big gardens that. We planted and worked, and help my mama can the food up ,to feed us,not a little food but many many jars of food,,milk the two cows we had for milk to drink,churn milk for butter and butter milk to drink and cook bread and such with,most people of this day and this time wouldn't even know how to began to start to do, if it come to to all if this to survive,we are all spoiled now with all the modern things of dayand time we are living in now God bless you and Wanda and family,
You said you weren't sure what you were gonna share from your porch - and yet you hit the nail on the head. I needed that ... I'm 65 now and remember the old ways - But sometimes I need a little reminding ... Perfect words for this new subscriber! Thank You ... and God Bless !
Once again, Thank you Danny. Love porch time. In the last month my adolescent kids are asking a lot of questions and wanting to know about family history and stories from generations back. It couldn’t be more perfect timing. We are reading through some of their history and looking at documents going back to the late 1800s. I feel their is a much higher power guiding this. Looking at some of their struggles hopefully will help my kids see what life is really about. They leaned on each other, family and neighbors. My husbands family helped in organizing a church. Their faith was everything. The Holy Spirit is unknowingly preparing us if we are open and listening.
Hello Danny, this was a great porch time, when l first saw what was happening, my faith gained in strength, my friend began to loose her faith, l said, the Bible never said we wouldn't suffer. I've asked God to give me strength and faith to deal with what's coming. I said, your will not mine be done oh Lord, and l carry on in my faith.
My momma and daddy both grew up without indoor plumbing or electricity. Daddy didn't have electricity till he was in the Army. Momma didn't till they were married. I was born in 1964. They taught me pretty much everything about living like that when I was growing up. They were incredibly tight with every penny and abhorred credit. I also learned a lot from my grandparents. In my opinion, society today is doomed. People are too weak. I even see myself as too weak because I know how my grandparents and parents lived. YHWH bless us, cause we're gonna need it ! Shalom !
I lived the same way . I was born 1964, my Grandmother had an outdoor toilet and a chamber pot under the bed. Fireplace in the Kitchen , a Cistern outside to catch water, Newspaper in the cracks in the walls. I am not strong as my parents and Grandparents and also my Grandparents and my mom and Dad never had a vaccination to go to school . I think these Big macs to go to school shortens our life.
@@vickieboudwin7781 I agree with you. Yeah, it's amazing the life they lived. We are proof that it's possible. Plus, look at the old order Amish and Mennonites ; they still live that way in the 21st century ! We need to suck it up, cause it's gonna get really nasty real soon ! Hang in there and do what you know and trust in our Heavenly Father ! Shalom !
Similar but different. My husband and I married in 1987. Our house was super old and we could see outside through our cabinets. Walked on road signs because of holes in the floor. We took retirement money I got when I left one job for another. We got a 30 x 44 building dried in. We ended up borrowing money to complete it and after doing what we could with what we had coming in. Our house isn't fancy and really not large. We wanted to have everything paid for before we retired. We did it. Struggled like your Mom with knowing I had a house note. I thank God for what he has provided for us and still provides. Thank you for your Porch Time.
Danny, Rn from Michigan.. You added your prayers for my daughter with Brain cancer.. She is well.. Thank you !! The hospital where I work is over loaded every day.. the staff is stressed... bad. Seems like the storm is just over the horizon. The lord told me I have enough.. Ready is in my heart not my stuff.. Danny I really mean it...
Our society is too busy with personal pleasure and with pleasing people, not pleasing God. This is how we became a consumer society rather than a God-fearing, God-pleasing one. This porch session resonated with me, and it reaffirms the Sunday service set forth by Pastor Gary Hamrick who talked of Pilate, 'the people pleaser', and how his decision to please people steered him wrong. (John 18-19) We must not stand by and allow false-gods to force immorality on us. We must not sit back and allow false-gods and acquaintances to shape us into the wickedness they desire!
Excellent story telling Danny, you are so wise. I'm 55 and back when I was about 10-14 years old my grandpa and grandma had a small farm in Clinton, NC where they raised there own food. They very seldom went to the grocery. This is how I know they didn't know about grocery stores even though Piggly Wiggly was right down the street! Me and grandma was in the store and put some cake mix and frosting in the basket. She had no idea you could buy it that way! My grandma made everything from scratch! I loved spending my summers there when I was a teen. My grandparents considered us city folks because we had city water not a well like they did, malls, etc., I miss them so much! Nothing like the olden days.
I feel so deep in my heart, everything going on in the solar system is going to catch ALOT of people off guard. I don’t feel like the wars will be why we will struggle to survive. It’s what’s coming at us from above. It’s already starting in California.. Bible is very clear what will happen in the last days…keep sounding the alarm!! God bless you and wanda!
Thank you Danny for your words of wisdom. This is why I love working with seniors. They have such interesting stories to share from their past. It makes me appreciate all I have even more.
Good morning brother Danny, as always your message is inspiring and very true. After years of prepping and 7 years on our homestead we are now in our 70s but are driven to succeed to become more self sufficient and independent. God has blessed us with a wonderful understanding of what is important and what is not. The guiding light of God's presence in our lives is our sanctuary each day. In return we live with reassurance that no matter what happens in this world his grace will protect us. Our motivation is our 2 teenage daughters that truly make our journey more meaningful and loving than we deserve. Preparing them for a prosperous future is a great challenge and we are determined they'll be able to survive a very difficult time in their lives. We don't live in fear of what may or may not happen, but try our best just to share love with others and reflect God's love for us as he intended us all to do. As more evil in the world is being exposed the great awareness of the power of the good in people will absolutely defeat the darkness. Another great porch time Danny, have a blessed day 🙏
I always enjoy Porch Time, THANK YOU! Recently you spoke about your Mother and how she lived all of her life in fear. That resonated with me. I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE if you would do a Porch Time dedicated to FEAR. I am a Christian, I share the same beliefs as you. Realistically, I know that Faith is how we overcome our fears, but I am human and I struggle. I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts and perspective on FEAR . I think it is a topic that many others can relate to and that a Porch Time about it would be a blessing to many. Thank you and God Bless you and Wanda!!!
I'm 67 and remember alot of what you are saying. When you talk about your father . . . I remember when my father had open heart surgery and a month later took out a large circle cement drive way with a sledge hammer. You're right . . . You don't see to many men like that anymore. Great porch time!
Good morning Miss Wanda. I slept late but am here with my coffee. Strange floating stuff on last nights video. Anyhow, wishing you both a good week. I agree we need to discuss survival. Our spirit/attitude also needs to also protected. Sometimes miracles come in horrible packages.
You hit the nail on the head when you said there is no such thing as being by yourself anymore. Porch talk was a blessing to me today. You are so right about all of this. This is not how God intended us to live. We don't even appreciate what we have like they did back then. We are all spoiled. They worked so hard for everything they had back then. I'm sure most people couldn't survive like they did. Most don't even know how to garden. God help us!
I love your channel. I agree with you that God is taking you in a new direction. I love your talk today. Please do more like this where you use the Word as illustrations. Thanks to you and Wanda.
Update ! I want to thank you for such a a blessing of stirring up the Holy spirit AMEN ! May the Lord bless you abundantly ! Your a teacher of the word for sure
Love your porch time videos. I try to go back & watch older videos when I can but hard to keep up with current videos much less go backwards. I have heard many a story about things folks have done to “get by & survive” in older days. Many people will soon (myself included) be seeing & learning some humble pie lessons on how to “get by”. I talk about line drying clothes not because I have to but because it keeps the electrical bill down. Folks think I’m nuts for doing that. I know people that won’t eat leftovers. You’ll starve at my place then because I try to not waste food. Dad always told us kids when you get hungry enough, you’ll eat it. (Whatever “it” was that day) Thanks for the words of wisdom today & reminders of things that we all tend to forget.
When I was 40. I had to have my gallbladder removed. I had it done on a Friday. An employee of mine picked me up after the surgery. Another employee let me stay with her. I drove myself home on Sunday. Was back to work on Tuesday. I could not lift anything over 10 lbs. That following weekend, I had a wedding to decorate with balloons and an arch to build. My employees put the helium tank in the van for me. I had to ask a man at the reception hall to unload the tank. I did my thing and decorated and built the arch. Then another man loaded the tank in my van for me. I had a job to do, and I was the only one who built the arches. You do what you have to do. I had no husband or boyfriend to rely on. I did rely on my employees. I could not have the surgery unless I had a plan for my aftercare. I run into this problem now with no one available to help if and when I need help. They are always too busy. Or they fall thru on doing their part when we negotiate on trading labor for daycare.
I'm with you Danny, I never thought in all my years I would see these times, but here we are. It is so true, and a wake up call for me, as I am starting a homestead all on my own, and it can be frightening at times to think if something was to happen to me, or if I fell very sick or something. No one else would be here to care for the farm. I'm starting to feel I may have moved to the wrong area as there doesn't seem like much of a community here. I have very few close neighbors. The ones that would do anything to help me, can't as their getting up in age, the other neighbors haven't seem to be interested in getting to know who I am at all. But I'm going to keep going, and doing the best I can. I am very blessed as I know the Lord has me in his hands! Thank you for your talks, enjoy listening to you!
You are speaking directly to me… thank you for being sensitive to the Lord. I needed to hear this truth . You have spoken details of my situation without knowing but God knew. Thank you God bless you!
Good morning Danny! Very Sobering message this morning...Very much appreciated and necessary. George and I have been having these same discussions and sense the Holy Spirit preparing us, compelling us to be drawing even closer to God above all else. You will never know how Precious your words have been to our lives. Thank you for sharing all that you do! We are Blessed to know that we will be spending Eternity with y'all!
About the only gauge that you can use to judge whether or not you will make it in really hard times is to look at what you need for daily life and where you have to get it from and what sources you need to buy or trade for them. Then sit down in a quiet place and try to think how you would get by if suddenly something bad happened and most or all of those things weren't accessible. So what you can do to hedge your bet is to store up or create alternatives or backup systems to get by on on whatever level that you can afford. Food and water being first on your list, Heat and family/personal protection being next then in descending levels of importance whatever else you need to get by at a minimal or better level. But whatever you do, you must rely on God to take that walk with you in your struggles as well as your Good times. Don't just Pray to God when you need something but pray to him when you don't need something for yourself but for someone else in need or pray in Thanks when everything is O.K.
King David is one of my favorite figures in the Bible as well, because he always tried to do what was right in the sight of G-d. David was remorseful when he messed up, and repented, always having faith. Some of us suffer with serious health issue's that causes pain i don't wish on nobody. I have suffered some crazy stuff ever since i was a kid. I jumped off the porch at my pappys house one day, and landed barefoot on a metal rake that went through my foot, broke a bone, and the rake nearly punctured the skin on top. I was on iv antibiotics for 3 day's in the hospital, and sent home on crutches for a couple week's. My pappy and dad built our house, and i remember hanging drywall and being on a ladder holding the drywall up with my head hobbling up a ladder. About 2 or 3 month's after the rake incident, my ankle started aching all the time. I told my mom and she said it was growing pains. I went on for 6 year's with this pain just getting worse, and my mom still said it was growing pains. One day i asked my dad for the insurance card, called pappy to take me to see the dr. An x-ray showed a baseball sized spot on it, and they figured it was a tumor because i had the pain for so many year's. I had surgery 2 week's later, and when i woke up, the dr. said if i had waited any longer, i would have lost my foot and lower leg. The dr. said when he drilled into the bone, the smell made everyone step back, because i had a bone infection because they didn't keep me on antibiotics long enough when i stepped on the rake, and it encapsulated infection from the rake. The dr. asked me a lot of questions, and told me that a bone infection is one of the most painful conditions you could have. I was on iv antibiotics for 6 week's, and oral antibiotics for nearly six month's. The x-ray showed the infection had eaten through the bottom of the bone, and down into my foot. I have had to work through some bad injuries in my life, but it made me stronger. I hope people know how to suffer, because thing's will get bad. Much love to you and Wanda, G-d bless everyone.
Great Porch time Brother you brought back so many memories that at the time I thought was bad but now realize how much better off we were. May God Bless you and Wanda for your good works.
I can only hope that this message reaches the masses! Thank you for stepping on everyone's comfort zone! Love and appreciate you and Wanda for all you do!
Good morning Danny, you know...I was raised on "can't never could do anything". My momma has never tolerated the word "can't" and it isn't an excuse. I know we are all raised differently but I am glad for the way I was raised. I was raised gardening, fishing, hunting, canning and small farming with only cows and chickens. My mamaw still cans and she's never used a pressure canner. She cans the same way her mother did and the way she taught my mom and myself. She uses the oven to can her jalapeños...blew my mind when she showed me that a few months ago. God bless everyone, have a wonderful day.
How do you do that ? Canning without a pressure canner ? I need your help . I never heard anyone do this sort of thing and it brings me much hope and excitement. Do you have to use a lot of salt ? I can’t have much salt either , thanks . I knew there was a way just no one knows …
@Apple Sauce a good place to start is at the ball Mason jar website. They have many sections and even break down the different canning methods. I replied twice but it keeps getting removed. Hopefully this one stays
Thank you for this porch time. I'm looking for a job because my company is outsourcing a lot of jobs and I don't feel financially safe there. The environment in the office is horrible and today I wondered why I am putting up with it all. You hit the nail on the head when you talk about providing for our families. That is why I'm doing it. Thank you for the reminder and blessings to you and yours.
Thank you Danny and Wanda for allowing us to share your thoughts and experiences with us. Your porch times are much-needed-loved for us and me too. May you always find joy, peace and love in what you do for us. You have given us so much more than u will ever know. ❤️ to u both.
My father was one of those tough men. His strength, intelligence, and resolve are an inspiration for me. That if I get put in some tough places that I will do well because he has taught me things and I know it can be overcome. Now a days I really miss him and wish I could ask him questions, he had passed too many years ago. I agree having a community to help when you need help and to talk with to learn from is essential no matter your setting. I hope the kids today will find their inner strength when challenged. Great video, I love the wisdom you give us all.
Danny you just hit on every point our family is going through right now... truly is is a message we needed to hear and I do believe God is speaking through you... thank you Danny...
I watched this video early this morning. But, I always like to read comments. I just got time to set down and read some of them. I truly have nothing to add. Everyone hear has nailed it in the comments. God bless you and Wanda. I loved hearing the owl in the background. Edit: Also, I just wanted to say that we know how these parasites use and love numbers. Well we are DEFINITELY in a year on our calendar to draw very close to Christ. 2023= 322
A younger sibling had a stroke a few years ago, and is still working on getting their mobility back. Very sobering to see how quick life can change. I thought I was serious beforeI witnessed what happened to their life. God is good and is restoring them, but I took heed that anything can happen anytime, health and life is not guaranteed, and I understand that working hard, preparing and being frugal and a wise steward may not ultimately save me, (only God can), but it's better to have a hedge and to be appreciative for everything I have, it can be taken away at any moment.
Oh man My family just went through a really rough patch .. My husband loss his Job on the family farm and unemployment was delayed ... So we went about 6 months without a paycheck but God came through. With the help of my dear parents and a successful garden this summer we never went hungry. My husband has landed a great job and we finally feel like we might make it. ☺️ Once we catch up with all the bills ☺️. One thing I have to say no matter how much you prepare there is only so much you can do and the rest you have to lean on the Lord for. And not that stocking up on supplies is a bad thing but growing your knowledge in how to make do or how to do things is so valuable. Also knowing how the system works so you can be prepared and aware of what your dealing with. ❤️
In Illinois out of state women with children had to fight for everything we paid for, physically, mentally, and spirituality. The last thing I want to say is what I have to say. I was built for this time. Old and broken, here we go
I so appreciated this porch time talk. The Lord, our God, answered your heart's desire to say somethin' of importance. This was like refreshment to me. You are saying somethin' that's not being said enough..or, maybe, just in a different way. Either way, I really enjoyed hearing how it was when you were growing up~it felt like it gave a strengthening to my spirit~thanks so much🕊️☕
My parents lived the same as your parents. Sometimes a dirt floor with newspaper covering the walls and no insulation. My maternal grandfather had my mama and her siblings in the fields waiting for sunrise.. So much of what you told is so true.
Thank you Danny sincerely. I have learned SO much from you and Wanda over the years, the info is invaluable. God's many blessings on you guys for sustained health and vitality.
Love this talk!! You are talking about my grandparents and my father. What is going on now would never have happened to them. It does take generations to breed that out of us and make us soft. I tell people all the time. America is not the America of the past. They don’t get it. (Proves my point). Satan is very patient. He just lurks and waits until he strikes. So true about 2023. The weather is bringing unimaginable changes and heartbreaks to us. Jesus is the only way we survive this.
God Bless Danny & Wanda. Thank you for sharing all that our Dear Lord has put on your heart. I'm grateful that our Lord has Blessed me with " ears to hear." 😇💓🙏
Yes+ yes-yes, my husband & I did our first well with a manual pulley set up he welded for pulley system. We did it all back in the day and wouldn't change it for anything, best times of my life.
A sermon, a life lesson, a history lesson and a reality check all in one! We as a nation have allowed the politicians to dumb us down, divide us and turn us against each other. If we haven't read God's word, we believe and live in ignorance. Thanks! You and your wife make me miss the Magnolia state too.
I totally agree. Great post. You and i know that God takes care of those who love Him thus He will prosper us . He told me so.
Danny is really good for that. Love these talks. God Bless you and your family and thank you Danny!
Amen brother your right on God bless you !
Great porch time, took me 46 years to realize the value of a simple life. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your message. My family has been targeted by "authorities" for many years.
This culminated in a sudden episode of digestive tract illness and an overnight stay in the hospital.
I was released from the hospital in hospital gowns & socks and nothing else.
My son Vincent & our RV were about 8 miles away, beyond a large bridge.
So I started walking.
A customer at the Circle K gave $10 to the cashier to give to me.
When I asked for a piece of cardboard & to borrow a marker, so I could display my destination to drivers as I walked, they told me no. Because an employee was going to drive me to my son.
"Strangers" at the Circle K have been family to us way beyond blood family.
Funny I went through something similar last year. They said it was if I was poisoned however they didn't do any toxicology on me. Spent a month in a specialist hospital. They had no clue what happened to me either.
Funny I have a circle k near me too and I feel the same way lol
Danny, I appreciate what you had to say. I came from a family that either was too stubborn or stupid to quit. My dad walked around for years with a gangrene gal bladder. When they finally figured out what was wrong, the Dr said he'd never seen anything that bad in a person who was still living. I worked as a machined for a while and kept working through pain...Dr finally did some scans and saw I'd herniated 2 lower disc's. My brother called b.s. on me because he hurry his back and it put him down immediately... so I showed him the report (I'm a woman, now 61 yoa). Doctors keep telling me I can't and not to do allot of things, but being alone I just tell them "and who'd come and get things done? "
I get so frustrated with my body and worth my adult children, when I hear them complain and give up. I have a friend who's 83 years old, that puts me to shame. He comes out and a little at a time is clearing my land so I can grow food (while my son lives at the end of the driveway and does nothing to help. ) please pray God blessed him with his own land to move to.
Good morning Danny , I’am almost 60 , I choose to be around older folks , they’re a walking library, and I learn (on purpose) DAILY !! Thanks
Good morning
Snap...
As a young person I wanted to hear what my grandparents would talk about how they survived the depression and what creative things they did. I love to hear their wisdom and experiences. Many things to be learned.
Always had respect for older generations very wise in life when I was young there company was a blessing to me
I'm 69. My mom died in childbirth when I was 1 1/2. My dad raised 4 kids mostly by himself. He never remarried. I stood on a chair to wash dishes when I was little. He'd bring home fabric scraps that machine parts were packed in & we'd sew our clothes out of them. I still grow most of my veggies & can them for later. Kids today don't know how good they've got it. A lot of them are in for a rude awakening. I've tried to instill in my kids a good work ethic & pray they'll be able to handle what's coming but I worry my grandkids won't be able to. The older they get the more I see it.
Random tip...if you get a boil, scrape the insides of a potato into a paste. Put it on the boil with a large bandage on top. It will come to a head after drawing out the infection by the next morning or next day. Old southern fix. Worked like a charm on me as a kid. My dad, one of twelve taught me that.
I love your story! What a blessing to learn all these things. God bless you and your wife!
Going through difficult trials should cause us to evaluate the ways we are out of order in our lives. The last four years have been relentless tests, trials, and humbling for my family.
Over Christmas we had that deep freeze storm…my furnace went out my water froze the sewer froze and as I set to fixing things I was missing my husband who had passed 15 months prior. I hate going through these things without my partner. I cried but friends and family and even strangers lent a helping hand. Through it all my faith never wavered because God always provides. It didn’t occur to me that this Christmas was a trial until I was listening to you ❤️
God Bless you Marcy. I'm so very sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss
Condolences for your loss. May the Lord give your strength
Me too, 5 months ago and I have a crippling disease.
I'm concerned I may have to sell my home and land but I really don't want to.
I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️
So sorry for your loss.hon
A man does what he has to. Gotta pay bills n feed the family! I had a 4 wheeler wreck. Concussion. 4 broken ribs n bruised that lung. Bruised kidney n a patch of skin missing from my shoulder. Only missed 1 day of work. Why? A man does what he must do for his family. Blessed by God.
Thank you, Danny) For not being prepared ahead for what you would talk about, You did a Great Job!! So many issues; new ones every single day. Well, my husband and I have been married for 52 years, with having five children. We both worked very hard for everything we needed for our family. We were never given anything. Our parents did teach us well and we tried our best with our own children, even with some hiccups along the way. One is never truly prepared; we have no idea what is around that hairpin curve in life. We owned a beautiful old Victorian Farmhouse with three acres and renovated it to it's original charm with updates. It was truly a home for all of our family. Well, in 2006, we found we needed a new roof and furnace; we approached Wells Fargo to refinance it. They would not work with us; they wanted an astronomical amount of money in advance. We couldn't do it. So, the inevitable happened, as we just choose a lawyer from the yellow pages, not a good choice. "Lose the House" were his words. We did, but not w/o heavy hearts. We lived there for just under 25 years; our memories were all held in that home for our family. The very start of the many home losses at the time. But- We took our memories with us.
So, we have been renting since 2007, "victims" of greedy landlords, mostly.
Yet, as we learn in life, there are things that can happen that are far worse. We lost our daughter, Megan, our middle child 3 years later. That is our true loss, not the house. ...We may prep and plan the best that we are able; but it's that turn in the road
ahead, that only our Lord plans, unforeseen to us, that govern our lives. God's plans, not ours. And we must accept all and know that He has the reason. I've never been angry with God. I know that She is with Him, and someday I will know why.
Thank you,, Danny. You are so thought-provoking) Blessings to you and Wanda.
(I hope those pepper seeds grow) pattie
Anything worth doing isn’t easy.
Anything worth having isn’t cheap.
Boy oh boy. For not having anything to talk about, that was a good one! Love porch times.
Danny, the devil did NOT want me to hear this message. I had to restart it several times. I made it through, God will not be stopped. 🙏🙏
I am reminded of an interview I watched, of a young Amish man - he'd been working and saving so that he had $50,000 saved for a down payment on his first house at 21 years old. . . and at 25, he was making more than most college graduates! I see our government is trying to persecute some of the Amish - but I have absolute confidence that they will survive and overcome!
Ya I find myself wanting to join the Amish on the daily.
EVERY THING YOU SAID MR DANNY WAS THE TRUTH THE HOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH 🙏
Great porch time! As a cancer survivor who lost physical stuff and am now rebuilding, I understand. Now my stamina is gone. Cling to your family and friends, community is your wealth. Thanks Danny.
Hi Danny I love your channel just wanted to say that I am from over the pond but I love America. I am willing all your people to wake up and become a beacon of hope for the rest of the world. x
Danny... your conversation is better than any preacher I've heard in 20 years. Amen, and thank you.
Good morning Danny!🌞☕️
I can’t tell you how much I look forward to Porch Time. I always get some type of knowledge and understanding and I have to praise the Lord because He always knows what message I need to hear to discern some aspect of my life. I’m ALWAYS amazed with God’s little ‘ah-ha’ moments, and I feel truly blessed because he lead me to Deep South Homestead.
Good morning Thank you
Amen x
My grandparents rolled a chicken house down the hill and turned it into a living arrangement.
My husband and I bought termite damaged homes and renovated them. After a few times we settled in the last one. We subsequently do not have a mortgage. Our vehicles are all older. But paid for. We build and fix things. Grow our food. Installed our own solar system. We live simply.
I lost my job in August. So I’ve learned a few more skills and hope to open a roadside stand to sell excess produce and other things we grow. Soaps. Milk. And I am trying to grow things I now buy. Like chicory for coffee. Sugar cane. Cassava. Lemon balm tea. Anything I’m able to replace, I’m going to try.
I hang our laundry to dry. Preheat the water in solar collector. We do everything we can to save a nickel.
It's nice your ponds are getting filled. I am looking forward to my filling in the spring. I had possums and racoons mess with a new pond I had dug but I'll figure out how to get rid of them or do something different.
There is always the unknown and unexpected we have to deal with.
God will get us through those things if he allows the enemy to bring them on us.
We need to keep our eyes on Him and keep our faithfulness in Him. Fire does refine us!
Thanks for sharing Danny. Surviving is a lot different today than it used to be.
I wish everyone everywhere would listen to this. What an impactful message.
Much love and God bless y’all.
I'm almost 86 years old and Danny and I was raise up like you, I've lived in a home that you see the chicken walking underthe floors, my mama and I would carry all the clothes to a spring of water,where a big wash pot of water was boiling from a fire ,that my daddyhad built to heat it,our old galvanized tubs rub boards ,lye soap ,and did our washing of clothes ,bed clothes and all wring them our by hands ,hung them on a clothes line to dry in the sun, , me I was raised up In work in the fields ,gathering the food from the big gardens that. We planted and worked, and help my mama can the food up ,to feed us,not a little food but many many jars of food,,milk the two cows we had for milk to drink,churn milk for butter and butter milk to drink and cook bread and such with,most people of this day and this time wouldn't even know how to began to start to do, if it come to to all if this to survive,we are all spoiled now with all the modern things of dayand time we are living in now God bless you and Wanda and family,
Thank you for talking about scriptures. I feel that will be the bedrock of our survival.
You said you weren't sure what you were gonna share from your porch - and yet you hit the nail on the head. I needed that ... I'm 65 now and remember the old ways - But sometimes I need a little reminding ... Perfect words for this new subscriber! Thank You ... and God Bless !
Once again, Thank you Danny. Love porch time. In the last month my adolescent kids are asking a lot of questions and wanting to know about family history and stories from generations back. It couldn’t be more perfect timing. We are reading through some of their history and looking at documents going back to the late 1800s. I feel their is a much higher power guiding this. Looking at some of their struggles hopefully will help my kids see what life is really about. They leaned on each other, family and neighbors. My husbands family helped in organizing a church. Their faith was everything. The Holy Spirit is unknowingly preparing us if we are open and listening.
Good morning brother!
My great aunt had a Jim Walter home built and took care of my great grandmother, and 2 great Uncles for years in that home.
Hello Danny, this was a great porch time, when l first saw what was happening, my faith gained in strength, my friend began to loose her faith, l said, the Bible never said we wouldn't suffer. I've asked God to give me strength and faith to deal with what's coming. I said, your will not mine be done oh Lord, and l carry on in my faith.
My momma and daddy both grew up without indoor plumbing or electricity. Daddy didn't have electricity till he was in the Army. Momma didn't till they were married. I was born in 1964. They taught me pretty much everything about living like that when I was growing up. They were incredibly tight with every penny and abhorred credit. I also learned a lot from my grandparents. In my opinion, society today is doomed. People are too weak. I even see myself as too weak because I know how my grandparents and parents lived. YHWH bless us, cause we're gonna need it ! Shalom !
I lived the same way . I was born 1964, my Grandmother had an outdoor toilet and a chamber pot under the bed. Fireplace in the Kitchen , a Cistern outside to catch water, Newspaper in the cracks in the walls. I am not strong as my parents and Grandparents and also my Grandparents and my mom and Dad never had a vaccination to go to school . I think these Big macs to go to school shortens our life.
@@vickieboudwin7781 I agree with you. Yeah, it's amazing the life they lived. We are proof that it's possible. Plus, look at the old order Amish and Mennonites ; they still live that way in the 21st century ! We need to suck it up, cause it's gonna get really nasty real soon ! Hang in there and do what you know and trust in our Heavenly Father ! Shalom !
I'm always inspired after porch time to do better - be better - work harder! God bless you and Miss Wanda!
Similar but different. My husband and I married in 1987. Our house was super old and we could see outside through our cabinets. Walked on road signs because of holes in the floor. We took retirement money I got when I left one job for another. We got a 30 x 44 building dried in. We ended up borrowing money to complete it and after doing what we could with what we had coming in. Our house isn't fancy and really not large. We wanted to have everything paid for before we retired. We did it. Struggled like your Mom with knowing I had a house note. I thank God for what he has provided for us and still provides. Thank you for your Porch Time.
Danny, Rn from Michigan.. You added your prayers for my daughter with Brain cancer.. She is well.. Thank you !! The hospital where I work is over loaded every day.. the staff is stressed... bad. Seems like the storm is just over the horizon. The lord told me I have enough.. Ready is in my heart not my stuff.. Danny I really mean it...
Our society is too busy with personal pleasure and with pleasing people, not pleasing God.
This is how we became a consumer society rather than a God-fearing, God-pleasing one.
This porch session resonated with me, and it reaffirms the Sunday service set forth by Pastor Gary Hamrick who talked of Pilate, 'the people pleaser', and how his decision to please people steered him wrong. (John 18-19)
We must not stand by and allow false-gods to force immorality on us. We must not sit back and allow false-gods and acquaintances to shape us into the wickedness they desire!
Excellent story telling Danny, you are so wise. I'm 55 and back when I was about 10-14 years old my grandpa and grandma had a small farm in Clinton, NC where they raised there own food. They very seldom went to the grocery. This is how I know they didn't know about grocery stores even though Piggly Wiggly was right down the street! Me and grandma was in the store and put some cake mix and frosting in the basket. She had no idea you could buy it that way! My grandma made everything from scratch! I loved spending my summers there when I was a teen. My grandparents considered us city folks because we had city water not a well like they did, malls, etc., I miss them so much! Nothing like the olden days.
Great message and I enjoyed the birds singing in the background.
I feel so deep in my heart, everything going on in the solar system is going to catch ALOT of people off guard. I don’t feel like the wars will be why we will struggle to survive. It’s what’s coming at us from above. It’s already starting in California.. Bible is very clear what will happen in the last days…keep sounding the alarm!! God bless you and wanda!
Yes most are not looking up.
Thank you Danny for your words of wisdom. This is why I love working with seniors. They have such interesting stories to share from their past. It makes me appreciate all I have even more.
Good morning brother Danny, as always your message is inspiring and very true. After years of prepping and 7 years on our homestead we are now in our 70s but are driven to succeed to become more self sufficient and independent. God has blessed us with a wonderful understanding of what is important and what is not.
The guiding light of God's presence in our lives is our sanctuary each day. In return we live with reassurance that no matter what happens in this world his grace will protect us. Our motivation is our 2 teenage daughters that truly make our journey more meaningful and loving than we deserve. Preparing them for a prosperous future is a great challenge and we are determined they'll be able to survive a very difficult time in their lives.
We don't live in fear of what may or may not happen, but try our best just to share love with others and reflect God's love for us as he intended us all to do.
As more evil in the world is being exposed the great awareness of the power of the good in people will absolutely defeat the darkness.
Another great porch time Danny, have a blessed day 🙏
Grateful for your positive attitude!
Good morning from Alabama. Enjoyed watching you and Wanda picking your vegetables. Thanks for sharing.
Good morning!
I always enjoy Porch Time, THANK YOU! Recently you spoke about your Mother and how she lived all of her life in fear. That resonated with me. I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE if you would do a Porch Time dedicated to FEAR. I am a Christian, I share the same beliefs as you. Realistically, I know that Faith is how we overcome our fears, but I am human and I struggle. I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts and perspective on FEAR . I think it is a topic that many others can relate to and that a Porch Time about it would be a blessing to many. Thank you and God Bless you and Wanda!!!
Danny, thank you so much for porch time I look forward to it every Tuesday God bless you and Wanda
I'm 67 and remember alot of what you are saying. When you talk about your father . . . I remember when my father had open heart surgery and a month later took out a large circle cement drive way with a sledge hammer. You're right . . . You don't see to many men like that anymore. Great porch time!
Good morning Miss Wanda. I slept late but am here with my coffee. Strange floating stuff on last nights video. Anyhow, wishing you both a good week. I agree we need to discuss survival. Our spirit/attitude also needs to also protected. Sometimes miracles come in horrible packages.
You hit the nail on the head when you said there is no such thing as being by yourself anymore. Porch talk was a blessing to me today. You are so right about all of this. This is not how God intended us to live. We don't even appreciate what we have like they did back then. We are all spoiled. They worked so hard for everything they had back then. I'm sure most people couldn't survive like they did. Most don't even know how to garden. God help us!
I love your channel. I agree with you that God is taking you in a new direction. I love your talk today. Please do more like this where you use the Word as illustrations. Thanks to you and Wanda.
Update ! I want to thank you for such a a blessing of stirring up the Holy spirit AMEN ! May the Lord bless you abundantly ! Your a teacher of the word for sure
Love your porch time videos. I try to go back & watch older videos when I can but hard to keep up with current videos much less go backwards. I have heard many a story about things folks have done to “get by & survive” in older days. Many people will soon (myself included) be seeing & learning some humble pie lessons on how to “get by”. I talk about line drying clothes not because I have to but because it keeps the electrical bill down. Folks think I’m nuts for doing that. I know people that won’t eat leftovers. You’ll starve at my place then because I try to not waste food. Dad always told us kids when you get hungry enough, you’ll eat it. (Whatever “it” was that day) Thanks for the words of wisdom today & reminders of things that we all tend to forget.
Y’all better HEAR what Sir Danny is saying! TRUTH is being laid down!!!
When I was 40. I had to have my gallbladder removed. I had it done on a Friday. An employee of mine picked me up after the surgery. Another employee let me stay with her. I drove myself home on Sunday. Was back to work on Tuesday. I could not lift anything over 10 lbs. That following weekend, I had a wedding to decorate with balloons and an arch to build. My employees put the helium tank in the van for me. I had to ask a man at the reception hall to unload the tank. I did my thing and decorated and built the arch. Then another man loaded the tank in my van for me. I had a job to do, and I was the only one who built the arches. You do what you have to do. I had no husband or boyfriend to rely on. I did rely on my employees. I could not have the surgery unless I had a plan for my aftercare. I run into this problem now with no one available to help if and when I need help. They are always too busy. Or they fall thru on doing their part when we negotiate on trading labor for daycare.
I'm with you Danny, I never thought in all my years I would see these times, but here we are. It is so true, and a wake up call for me, as I am starting a homestead all on my own, and it can be frightening at times to think if something was to happen to me, or if I fell very sick or something. No one else would be here to care for the farm. I'm starting to feel I may have moved to the wrong area as there doesn't seem like much of a community here. I have very few close neighbors. The ones that would do anything to help me, can't as their getting up in age, the other neighbors haven't seem to be interested in getting to know who I am at all. But I'm going to keep going, and doing the best I can. I am very blessed as I know the Lord has me in his hands! Thank you for your talks, enjoy listening to you!
You are speaking directly to me… thank you for being sensitive to the Lord. I needed to hear this truth . You have spoken details of my situation without knowing but God knew. Thank you God bless you!
You are so welcome
Love these stories,brings back memories
Great porch time Danny. Blessings to you and Wanda. 💗
Good morning Danny!
Very Sobering message this morning...Very much appreciated and necessary. George and I have been having these same discussions and sense the Holy Spirit preparing us, compelling us to be drawing even closer to God above all else. You will never know how Precious your words have been to our lives. Thank you for sharing all that you do! We are Blessed to know that we will be spending Eternity with y'all!
Thank you Danny, any porch time with God is a good porch time!
About the only gauge that you can use to judge whether or not you will make it in really hard times is to look at what you need for daily life and where you have to get it from and what sources you need to buy or trade for them. Then sit down in a quiet place and try to think how you would get by if suddenly something bad happened and most or all of those things weren't accessible. So what you can do to hedge your bet is to store up or create alternatives or backup systems to get by on on whatever level that you can afford. Food and water being first on your list, Heat and family/personal protection being next then in descending levels of importance whatever else you need to get by at a minimal or better level. But whatever you do, you must rely on God to take that walk with you in your struggles as well as your Good times. Don't just Pray to God when you need something but pray to him when you don't need something for yourself but for someone else in need or pray in Thanks when everything is O.K.
PREACH! PREACH! DID YOU GET UP LIKE THIS TODAY! I AM THANKFUL TO YOU AND FOR YOU FOR GETTING ME ON THE RIGHT TRACK!
King David is one of my favorite figures in the Bible as well, because he always tried to do what was right in the sight of G-d. David was remorseful when he messed up, and repented, always having faith. Some of us suffer with serious health issue's that causes pain i don't wish on nobody. I have suffered some crazy stuff ever since i was a kid. I jumped off the porch at my pappys house one day, and landed barefoot on a metal rake that went through my foot, broke a bone, and the rake nearly punctured the skin on top. I was on iv antibiotics for 3 day's in the hospital, and sent home on crutches for a couple week's. My pappy and dad built our house, and i remember hanging drywall and being on a ladder holding the drywall up with my head hobbling up a ladder. About 2 or 3 month's after the rake incident, my ankle started aching all the time. I told my mom and she said it was growing pains. I went on for 6 year's with this pain just getting worse, and my mom still said it was growing pains. One day i asked my dad for the insurance card, called pappy to take me to see the dr. An x-ray showed a baseball sized spot on it, and they figured it was a tumor because i had the pain for so many year's. I had surgery 2 week's later, and when i woke up, the dr. said if i had waited any longer, i would have lost my foot and lower leg. The dr. said when he drilled into the bone, the smell made everyone step back, because i had a bone infection because they didn't keep me on antibiotics long enough when i stepped on the rake, and it encapsulated infection from the rake. The dr. asked me a lot of questions, and told me that a bone infection is one of the most painful conditions you could have. I was on iv antibiotics for 6 week's, and oral antibiotics for nearly six month's. The x-ray showed the infection had eaten through the bottom of the bone, and down into my foot. I have had to work through some bad injuries in my life, but it made me stronger. I hope people know how to suffer, because thing's will get bad. Much love to you and Wanda, G-d bless everyone.
So very true. We can purchase everything we need then something comes another way.
Love the flag, well the entire background. You speak a lot of truth! Stay safe up there and keep on growing🤠
Great Porch time Brother you brought back so many memories that at the time I thought was bad but now realize how much better off we were. May God Bless you and Wanda for your good works.
I can only hope that this message reaches the masses! Thank you for stepping on everyone's comfort zone! Love and appreciate you and Wanda for all you do!
Good morning Danny, you know...I was raised on "can't never could do anything". My momma has never tolerated the word "can't" and it isn't an excuse. I know we are all raised differently but I am glad for the way I was raised. I was raised gardening, fishing, hunting, canning and small farming with only cows and chickens. My mamaw still cans and she's never used a pressure canner. She cans the same way her mother did and the way she taught my mom and myself. She uses the oven to can her jalapeños...blew my mind when she showed me that a few months ago.
God bless everyone, have a wonderful day.
How do you do that ? Canning without a pressure canner ? I need your help . I never heard anyone do this sort of thing and it brings me much hope and excitement. Do you have to use a lot of salt ? I can’t have much salt either , thanks . I knew there was a way just no one knows …
@@TheTurtleTribalNation Wanda has an old cook book that talks about canning without a pressure canner.
@Apple Sauce a good place to start is at the ball Mason jar website. They have many sections and even break down the different canning methods. I replied twice but it keeps getting removed. Hopefully this one stays
My Dad had a jim Walters home built around d 1970, he did the inside finish work too. Even hand built the kitchen cabinets. Different times brother.
Thank you for this porch time. I'm looking for a job because my company is outsourcing a lot of jobs and I don't feel financially safe there. The environment in the office is horrible and today I wondered why I am putting up with it all. You hit the nail on the head when you talk about providing for our families. That is why I'm doing it. Thank you for the reminder and blessings to you and yours.
Thank you Danny and Wanda for allowing us to share your thoughts and experiences with us. Your porch times are much-needed-loved for us and me too. May you always find joy, peace and love in what you do for us. You have given us so much more than u will ever know. ❤️ to u both.
Another wonderful message, you and Wanda are special thanks for the word of God love Fran P.
My father was one of those tough men. His strength, intelligence, and resolve are an inspiration for me. That if I get put in some tough places that I will do well because he has taught me things and I know it can be overcome. Now a days I really miss him and wish I could ask him questions, he had passed too many years ago. I agree having a community to help when you need help and to talk with to learn from is essential no matter your setting. I hope the kids today will find their inner strength when challenged.
Great video, I love the wisdom you give us all.
AMEN! I love Porch Time! I wish we were neighbors!!!
Danny you just hit on every point our family is going through right now... truly is is a message we needed to hear and I do believe God is speaking through you... thank you Danny...
I do my best to prepare for what may come and trust that God will not give me more than I can handle.
I watched this video early this morning. But, I always like to read comments. I just got time to set down and read some of them. I truly have nothing to add. Everyone hear has nailed it in the comments. God bless you and Wanda. I loved hearing the owl in the background.
Edit: Also, I just wanted to say that we know how these parasites use and love numbers. Well we are DEFINITELY in a year on our calendar to draw very close to Christ. 2023= 322
Thanks for the good witness and sharing your testimony on being a good steward of our resources. They all come from God!
Just found your channel and love it. Thank you for sharing your life and great stories.
welcome Miss Debra MI
Good morning . Thank you NJ
Danny , I am a senior with poor eyesight , unable to read smaller print so I really enjoy your lessons from the bible , you are a blessing .
Glad you like them!
A younger sibling had a stroke a few years ago, and is still working on getting their mobility back. Very sobering to see how quick life can change. I thought I was serious beforeI witnessed what happened to their life. God is good and is restoring them, but I took heed that anything can happen anytime, health and life is not guaranteed, and I understand that working hard, preparing and being frugal and a wise steward may not ultimately save me, (only God can), but it's better to have a hedge and to be appreciative for everything I have, it can be taken away at any moment.
Oh man My family just went through a really rough patch .. My husband loss his Job on the family farm and unemployment was delayed ... So we went about 6 months without a paycheck but God came through. With the help of my dear parents and a successful garden this summer we never went hungry. My husband has landed a great job and we finally feel like we might make it. ☺️ Once we catch up with all the bills ☺️. One thing I have to say no matter how much you prepare there is only so much you can do and the rest you have to lean on the Lord for. And not that stocking up on supplies is a bad thing but growing your knowledge in how to make do or how to do things is so valuable. Also knowing how the system works so you can be prepared and aware of what your dealing with. ❤️
Great csermon. I loved it. Wondrrful message I wish everyone could hear. Thank you
We need our freedoms, prayers and we better get strong fast. Creating connections with like minded is of the most importance right now!
In Illinois out of state women with children had to fight for everything we paid for, physically, mentally, and spirituality. The last thing I want to say is what I have to say. I was built for this time. Old and broken, here we go
Good Morning Danny and Wanda. Excellent message this morning. Y’all have a blessed day.
Good morning!
I so appreciated this porch time talk. The Lord, our God, answered your heart's desire to say somethin' of importance. This was like refreshment to me. You are saying somethin' that's not being said enough..or, maybe, just in a different way. Either way, I really enjoyed hearing how it was when you were growing up~it felt like it gave a strengthening to my spirit~thanks so much🕊️☕
My parents lived the same as your parents. Sometimes a dirt floor with newspaper covering the walls and no insulation. My maternal grandfather had my mama and her siblings in the fields waiting for sunrise.. So much of what you told is so true.
I do believe you are spot on. Keep it up, please.
Thank you Danny sincerely. I have learned SO much from you and Wanda over the years, the info is invaluable. God's many blessings on you guys for sustained health and vitality.
Love this talk!! You are talking about my grandparents and my father. What is going on now would never have happened to them. It does take generations to breed that out of us and make us soft. I tell people all the time. America is not the America of the past. They don’t get it. (Proves my point). Satan is very patient. He just lurks and waits until he strikes. So true about 2023. The weather is bringing unimaginable changes and heartbreaks to us. Jesus is the only way we survive this.
Well said. Thanks for sharing. God bless brother.
I really liked what you have to say. Makes perfect sense to me. Knox,TN

Yes+ yes-yes, my husband & I did our first well with a manual pulley set up he welded for pulley system. We did it all back in the day and wouldn't change it for anything, best times of my life.
