Since becoming a senior I have missed the compliments that I took for granted in my younger days. (Yes, I know this sounds shallow. However, we seniors do often feel unseen.) Now, when I see a fellow senior woman who looks nice or has pretty silver hair, etc., I make it a point to stop & tell her how nice she looks or how pretty her hair is. And, she absolutely lights up! We often get into friendly conversation, too.
This makes me tear up, thank you so much for mentioning this. I reflect on such things often, as my grandparents are in their 90s and we know many seniors besides. I will take this to heart and be sure to speak up more often when someone is looking nice 💓
I’m glad you mentioned this. It is also the case that seniors often get less human touch, which is so important. Give the seniors in your lives lots of hugs and hand squeezes!
I try to compliment seniors about their outfit, color of jacket, their hair...I think we all like hearing these kind of things. I also try to compliment parents when I see especially well behaved children. I think they don't hear that enough - either the parents or the kids.
I am a paper crafter and a couple years ago I began making little cards to hand out to say "thank you" or "you are special". I hand them out to grocery checkers, waitresses and drivers, etc. The responses are amazing. I also have a note on back letting people know they can keep the card to remind them how special they are or they can pass it forward to encourage someone else. Love this challenge. I appreciate you both!
One day I was doing my food shopping last year , I had about $50 worth of groceries, I had let a woman who looked in a rush go ahead of me, she couldn’t thank me enough telling me she was having a very stressful day, I could tell she was frazzled, when it was my turn the woman who I insisted get ahead of me must have given the cashier enough money for my groceries, when it rang up I was getting my money out of my wallet when the cashier said the lady in front of you paid for your groceries, she was long gone I couldn’t even thank her
May 8th my son hit two deer about 8:45 PM. He is fine, truck is not as good. However, my son called me to let me know he was ok. He then said that talking to me helped to calm him down. We were about 45 miles away, but just talking to me helped him. God has been good for helping me have the right words. Thank you for sharing and caring.
Praise God that your son has emerged safe & sound from this accident ! You must all feel so shaken up tho. Understandably ! I would, too ! Life is fragile. But we “have miles to walk before we sleep.” ( Robert Frost). God still has plans for us ! God bless you ! And Seize the Day ! 💞
Dawn and Diana every time I hear you say we didn’t have a lot growing up it makes me think, that was a blessing in disguise. Obviously your Mom and Dad gave you everything you needed. They must be so proud of you. I know you wouldn’t change your childhood. So what I’m trying to say is it all goes hand in hand. Just like decluttering, we declutter because we realize we don’t need STUFF to make us happy. Dianna bringing us closer to God. You girls have got the answer. God bless your parents for giving us you!!! We love you both!! Happy Mother’s Day to you and to your Mom.
Thank you for these words as I listen today. I was only recently introduced to your channel. I was able to take recyclables for my 94 yr old neighbor today and bring her trash can in from the curb… you would have thought I brought her flowers she was so grateful. Giving of ourselves blesses us as much as the recipient.
I have to share the great experience I had today, which was totally inspired by you. As I walked into Hobby Lobby this morning, a young man stood by the door looking very sad. He politely asked me for some money. I told him I don't carry cash and asked him if he was hungry. He was, so I told him I would buy him a gift card. When I asked him which fast-food he liked best, he said, "Whichever one you like best." When I presented him with a card I said "God bless you". He smiled from ear to ear. He told me his name and asked me to pray for him. I assured him that I would. I wrote his name on the paper prayer ring I hang on my turn signal in my car. I prayed for him throughout the rest of the day and will continue to do so. I felt so good all day long. I would not have thought to offer a gift card had I not been a follower of your channel. Thank you for all that you do. You are really a gift!
I have been disabled since I was 30 years old at 29 I got a disease called C. IDP at 30 I lost my vision and at 31 I was on dialysis. I now have a kidney transplant. Through all of this, my husband was literally my hero sitting in the corner of every ER visit. Or visiting me and bringing me little things from home that made my hospital stays better. When we would go on vacation? We like to go to the beach but walking on the beach. When you wear braces on your Legs from your feet up to your knees makes walking on the beach very hard! It is so funny because walking down the beach to a certain point that is nowhere near to the water. But far enough that I can enjoy. It is harder when you start out. The first time we went sitting there. I was so anxious about walking back, but going back was actually easier than when I started the first time walking down the beach. The theory that it's more challenging and looks further is very true when you don't feel great. Thank you for the encouraging video I couldn't have lived through any of this without Jesus !
On a regular basis, we overtip whenever a tip is needed. Our pastor suggested that, and we agree. If we pray before a meal in a restaurant, especially, be generous.
Keep Going Diana. I am a 54 year old grandmother/ parent taking care of my 4 year old grandson. Your messages are encouraging me to have hope and connect with Jesus. Our families are our first ministry. Thank you for all You are doing for Christ.
Yes, keep going. I'm a 65 year old grandma/parent taking care full time of my 5 year old grandson. I'm a little overwhelmed. I'm worried about being too old to care for him long term. My daughter is an addict. Then I pray.....
16:30 "We need to stay in the moment and not borrow fear". I love that concept that we 'borrow fear'. It's so true. Emotions - all of them - are contagious in some way, and it's good to be mindful of that.
Even one day of giving to others is worth our time! A month of giving is great also, however let's remember those random times of giving. Thanks for this conversation ladies - You both help us stay focused & positive!
You both look very nice today. Those colors are perfect for each of you. Dawn that tan should be your new black! Diana you are so funny! Ii think I’m going to grab a friend right now to join your Bible Study. Mine is ending and won’t start until September.
Diana, I had 4 yr old 2 yr old and 3 weeks to my daughter being born o. 9/11/2001. I sooo know how yiu feel about bringing kids into the world. I also knew it was a moment t in time. It has happened before and it will happen again. Live in the Lord. All in His time.
Your comment about not borrowing fear from the future really hit home. I’ve been so distressed and fearful about my daughter wanting to go out of state for college, and all the things that can happen when we’re not there to protect her. Such good advice to give it the Lord. Looking at it through a different lens can be so helpful. Thank you for the encouragement to pray.
Wow. I can understand your fear and I’m so grateful this message could give encouragement… we truly need one another! Many blessings as you walk this out in prayer and peace! 💛
Hi Diana, you had me there. I was devasted when I thought it was cancelled. I love challenges, even virtual ones. So glad that we are still on. I am planning how to do some of the difficult ones and my perspective is changing. I do serve but I need to do it from a place of love.
🇨🇦How do you not have thousands more subscribers? Your TH-cam 'show' is wonderful! Your message is so uplifting and encouraging actually relatable and pretty funny to boot. People..subscribe!!
I guess because I have literally never asked before now? 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️ Haha. Thank you so much for your kindness, it truly means so much and keeps me going!! Blessings + love 💛💛💛
Well, the May I Serve You Month of May is still on for me! I've had so much fun and good feelings doing your calendar and adding my own ideas. I've shared your idea for May and your TH-cam Channel with my dear friend who lives a totally Faith based Life
I first started watching Dawn back in....oh goodness, I forget--it's been years! I always loved her videos that had you in them and when you started a channel, I was so happy! I really love your videos and the way you speak to our hearts just feels like a nice warm hug from a dear friend. Really wished I lived by you guys so I could be an honorary part of your family LOLLLL.
I listened to your last video when you bought a gift card at Starbucks for them to give the person behind you. So l followed suit and did the same yesterday. The server was amazed and said that's so nice of you. It is wonderful to randomly bless people. I also clean my cupboards of canned goods that are approximately a year out from expiration and take them to our local food pantry. Canned meat included.
Thank you Diana and Dawn! I enjoy hearing your messages--very uplifting and thought provoking. God has called you to help us focus on Him and all He offers. Thank you for shining light on how to do that!
Diana, I want you to know how much I appreciate you. I appreciate your godliness and your desire to allow God to use you. I appreciate your openness. I sense that what you share on the videos is not a façade but is who you truly are. You model humility. I look forward to your prayers. At times when I cannot pray or I feel inadequate to the task, I wish that I could have a Diana prayer. Will you please consider putting together a book of prayers? Thank you, and God bless you!
??? Crime is going down!!! I live in NYC, u can’t prove it by me. I pray every day that the world returns to a more peaceful place. Thanks for all you and Dawn do to lift the spirits of so many people.
I love you so much, Diana! (Well, I love you both 😆) "Do not borrow fear about the future!!!" Your generous spirit is infectious. Most of all, guiding people to our only hope, Jesus, but also the idea of maintaining perspective in this crazy, chaotic world, is a much needed reality check. May we seek the Lord and adide in our hope through Him!
Wow….you are so right on point!!! These things are very true! My dr is trying to get me back on track. My mood has been in the ditch! Thanks for sharing
You got me! My first feeling was disappointment that the May challenge was cancelled. My second thought was, “the seed has been planted”. I felt sure many people would continue reaching out, connecting and doing kind deeds anyways 😊
I love your prayers, Diana. And I love hearing about how much we have in common in our faith. I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and we also rely on the Holy Spirit to prompt us to help others, lead us in our daily life, and offer comfort and peace. Also, service is truly the best way to get out of ourselves and feel better about everything! Thank you for your inspiring words!
Yes serving helps a ton and Jesus came to serve us first and wants us to love our neighbor as ourself, Jesus loves so much that he served and gave his life for us! This was a reminder for me to love and serve like he did, you definitely encouraged me this is the first time I've seen your channel! It's awesome everything you have done!
Watch the "news" you pick to view and check facts. There is definitely a channel that is spreading crime misinformation. Your comments are a good reminder to all of us to seek God and truth. Your experiment was a beautiful idea and you touched many people.
When you were discussing our view regarding challenges being based on what we are currently experiencing and how we see ourselves (the example of looking at the hill while wearing a backpack), I thought of the story in the Bible of the spies who compared themselves to grasshoppers. Perspective is so important ❤. Thank you for the encouragement today, Diana & Dawn!
Thank you Diana and Dawn I needed to hear this so much today. I'm going through some unknown health issues and this was really comforting and helpful to me. Have a blessed day.
I think next time I have a small amount left on a gift card, I'll be sure to give it away at the store, the shopper behind me, shoppers coming in, or even the cashier! I never thought of that, thank you.
Violence across the US has gone down. However in my home state it has skyrocketed. It takes an active focus and effort to stay positive and watch for God’s hand at work in the darkness. Turn your eyes upon Jesus is on repeat in my mind daily. To God be the glory.
I agree that hangry needs to be in our awareness, but I don't think promoting sugar addiction is the way to handle it. Perhaps some fruit, trail mix or a Lara bar might be better choices!
Or hard boiled eggs, etc :) Or just eating less starchy, carbie food that puts us on that glucose roller coaster to begin with. They must also have stronger teeth than me. I am tired of paying the dentist.
Not to be a Debbie Downer, but those statistics aren't always accurate. In certain places in the world, crimes are not being handled, so even though they're happening and crime is greatly on the rise, it's not being recorded and therefore it looks like it's on the decline when it's actually on the rise.
I understand the FBI reporting has made the reporting so cumbersome that police are not reporting. We all know the truth. We need to pray for peace and do good deeds to help promote kindness.
On the flip side, where I live, the people just voted out a DA who was so compassionate to criminals that he wasn't prosecuting. It got really bad and the people in my very compassionate city realized it wasn't working. Sometimes, facing jail or an arrest is the rock bottom that someone needs to hit to turn their life around and he took that away. And he also took away locking up people who were victimizing others. Change is happening. Take heart. And vote!❤🗳
As Christians we should always want to be serving people and blessing people because in doing so you’re doing it to Jesus. I wish more Christians would get involved in SOMETHING!
I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of the Bible study group! I can engage as much or as little depending on my life and busyness. A wonderful group of women and everyday I have an opportunity to feel encouraged or encourage others. Highly recommend it! ❤ also great video ladies 😉
Love both your channels. Appreciate both of you dear young ladies. And yes, it's so easy to be manipulated by the opinion shows that pass for news channels. We have to be so discerning what we listen to. 🙉 I gave up all network "news" because I did find it made me depressed and even angry. Congrats on your 50k!!! Keep doing the good works❤
Such a tough thing regarding going to friends' houses...I prefer to host. My kids go to friends' houses, but when I don't know the parents I usually say no.
I honestly don’t understand why people object to click bait titles. Why wouldn’t you name the video something to make people want to check it out? Personally, I watch everything you post because you are so enjoyable to watch. 🙂
The objection is the channel creator is using lies to manipulate people into watching something they may not be interested in. Time is valuable and using lies to take people’s time is bad.
@@elizabethlangheim7214 I understand your point; however, I would never expect a creator to be responsible for how I manage my time. I stop watching videos when I lose interest. Plus, I consider time on TH-cam to be recreational so I guess I don’t take the titles too seriously anyway. TH-cam creators are building businesses, and the metrics and algorithms are a big part of that growth. They are providing me with free entertainment, so I just don’t get bothered by such.
@@lauramccollum5686 I like to manage my time too. That’s why I think clickbait sucks. I do enjoy quirky titles and funny titles. Don’t really care for titles that lie outright and to lie just for views seems weird and a compromise of values but it is done quite a bit on TH-cam so I guess if you get rewarded with views then some people are okay with it. Some people like clickbait and some don’t. To each their own, I guess.
@@elizabethlangheim7214 ah, I totally had not focused on the fact that some click bait titles are essentially lies. Honesty is of utmost importance to me, and I had not made that connection. Thank you for sharing your perspective!
Please accept my apologies… I changed the title… I was having fun with the premise of the video and truly didn’t mean to offend… I’m really sorry! Please forgive me 🙏
Great pull back to regardless of who’s right with there’s more crime or less crime, we have the Holy Spirit to guide and comfort us in the midst of all that’s going on no matter our perspective, skewed or not. And one day, one day in eternity this will all be done away with and there will be no more pain, suffering, dying, no more need to cry. And the Lamb will be in our midst and there will be no night 🎉 hallelujah
Hi Diana You look good in your green shirt 👕. I think when you do things with other people it makes you want to do it.i like the May challenge it is always nice to do things for others.Even just small things it makes you and the other person feel great. Thanks for another great video.
I do not see a reduction in crime or violence. This is something that we should be aware of and prepare for, but not to despair in our lives. It is incredibly hard when it is close to or it directly affects you; and we are called to pray and keep looking up. Jesus said that these things must happen but not to worry because He has already overcome the world. I love watching you both, and I am trying to serve in May and often afterward. I love your ideas and how sweet and helpful you both are. I have truly had my home and heart transformed by you both. This video felt wrong when you began quoting someone about the crime and violence decreasing. It felt as though you were being deceived and passing this information along. For others who are living in ever increasing crime and violence it might seem uninformed. They should know that our hope isn't found in this world. It is found in everything that Jesus promised and knowing that He is on the throne. God is in control. Hope in truth, while going through adversity is better than false hope. Jesus told us these things so that when they happened, we would know that He is God. This is just feedback that I felt I had to share. I am subscribed, and I will keep watching. You both are light and joy. ❤ I pray that this is received not as criticism, but with consideration 🙏.
When my boys were young I opened my house (literally) and let the development kids in and they all got to play inside and outside. All was able to watch and to play. As they drew up they went their own ways but the memories are there
I love both of you girls videos,I have been so inspired by both of you - I’ve declutter about 50% of the things in my house - but seriously the world is not getting better ! Poverty is sky high and has become very dangerous now that we have open borders and 3rd world countries have sent us there criminals! Groceries and gas are sky high ! Most families are having a hard time paying the bills and buying food and clothing

Keeping our eyes on Truth...... !

Pain shared is pain halved, pleasure shared is pleasure doubled.
Dawn and Diana every time I hear you say we didn’t have a lot growing up it makes me think, that was a blessing in disguise. Obviously your Mom and Dad gave you everything you needed. They must be so proud of you. I know you wouldn’t change your childhood. So what I’m trying to say is it all goes hand in hand. Just like decluttering, we declutter because we realize we don’t need STUFF to make us happy. Dianna bringing us closer to God. You girls have got the answer. God bless your parents for giving us you!!!
We love you both!! Happy Mother’s Day to you and to your Mom.
You’re so right, we wouldn’t change a thing! Thank you for this thoughtful message and encouragement … it really means so much! 💛

The dumpster is such a great idea!
Yeah i never would have thought of that... 🙂
I just emailed my apartment management and suggested they do it for a "spring cleaning." Much better than bagels for mothers or gift-wrapping parties.
On a regular basis, we overtip whenever a tip is needed. Our pastor suggested that, and we agree. If we pray before a meal in a restaurant, especially, be generous.
I try for this too! I try to hide it, but people I’m with notice too. I think it matters… thanks for sharing! 💛
Keep Going Diana. I am a 54 year old grandmother/ parent taking care of my 4 year old grandson. Your messages are encouraging me to have hope and connect with Jesus. Our families are our first ministry. Thank you for all You are doing for Christ.

I like dawns haircut!
Diana, I had 4 yr old 2 yr old and 3 weeks to my daughter being born o. 9/11/2001. I sooo know how yiu feel about bringing kids into the world. I also knew it was a moment t in time. It has happened before and it will happen again. Live in the Lord. All in His time.
Y E S ! Such important perspective. Thank you for sharing!! 💛
And maybe they are born for a time such as this! Maybe pray the Lord will raise them up to be a shining light in their dark world!
Exodus 17:12 When Moses became weary, Aaron & Hur held up his hands. Another example of how we absolutely need each other!!

I love the both of you so much, thank you for sharing God’s love with all of us!!!

Oh, I'm glad you were tricking us into watching! May service continues!
Thank you for being the good...and sharing ideas of simple ways to do good. Some people need a gentle reminder.
You ladies are amazing together.
Love watching you two together.

I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and we also rely on the Holy Spirit to prompt us to help others, lead us in our daily life, and offer comfort and peace. Also, service is truly the best way to get out of ourselves and feel better about everything! Thank you for your inspiring words!
Yes serving helps a ton and Jesus came to serve us first and wants us to love our neighbor as ourself, Jesus loves so much that he served and gave his life for us! This was a reminder for me to love and serve like he did, you definitely encouraged me this is the first time I've seen your channel! It's awesome everything you have done!
Hi Diana & Dawn 👋🏻 i am so glad you're not canceling your experiment. Your stories are so uplifting. ❤
My daughter and I watched this together today. You have made so many good points and this TH-cam spoke your hearts.

Watch the "news" you pick to view and check facts. There is definitely a channel that is spreading crime misinformation. Your comments are a good reminder to all of us to seek God and truth. Your experiment was a beautiful idea and you touched many people.
Congratulations on the 50K milestone Diana!! So happy for you 😀
I noticed my friends bulb flowers were spent and she just had hip surgery. I cleaned up her bulb plants for her, she loved it.
When you were discussing our view regarding challenges being based on what we are currently experiencing and how we see ourselves (the example of looking at the hill while wearing a backpack), I thought of the story in the Bible of the spies who compared themselves to grasshoppers. Perspective is so important ❤. Thank you for the encouragement today, Diana & Dawn!
You two are so beautiful inside and out. I pray that you are both blessed and encouraged to continue in the good works.
You two are just lovely! Beautiful inside and out! Thank you for spreading love and light in this world! ❤
Congratulations on reaching 50K subscribers, Diana!
💃🎊🎉🎂🍰🥰🙌
Thanks - I REALLY needed this today!
Thank you Diana and Dawn I needed to hear this so much today. I'm going through some unknown health issues and this was really comforting and helpful to me. Have a blessed day.
I think next time I have a small amount left on a gift card, I'll be sure to give it away at the store, the shopper behind me, shoppers coming in, or even the cashier! I never thought of that, thank you.
Love you Diana! Thanks for the consistent encouragement. Xoxo
I have been giving the advice to never ask anyone a question before they eat! 🤗
Your sister posts bring me so many smiles!
Violence across the US has gone down. However in my home state it has skyrocketed. It takes an active focus and effort to stay positive and watch for God’s hand at work in the darkness. Turn your eyes upon Jesus is on repeat in my mind daily. To God be the glory.
So nice seeing you together! Happy Mother’s Day. Thank YOU😊
I agree that hangry needs to be in our awareness, but I don't think promoting sugar addiction is the way to handle it.
Perhaps some fruit, trail mix or a Lara bar might be better choices!
Or hard boiled eggs, etc :) Or just eating less starchy, carbie food that puts us on that glucose roller coaster to begin with. They must also have stronger teeth than me. I am tired of paying the dentist.
Love you both. Sugar is toxic to the body and causes physical and mental stress.
An iced americano makes me went to help others!^^
I literally love you both so much, I follow both of you and you guys are such beautiful people.
lol me too! I even subscribed to Rusty Jugement and Farmer orthodox! My husband loves those two vlogs! Lol
There’s a beautiful prayer called the Litany of Surrender that’s all about excessive worry. It completely addresses all these issues.
Not to be a Debbie Downer, but those statistics aren't always accurate. In certain places in the world, crimes are not being handled, so even though they're happening and crime is greatly on the rise, it's not being recorded and therefore it looks like it's on the decline when it's actually on the rise.
I understand the FBI reporting has made the reporting so cumbersome that police are not reporting. We all know the truth. We need to pray for peace and do good deeds to help promote kindness.
Exactly
This is so true.
On the flip side, where I live, the people just voted out a DA who was so compassionate to criminals that he wasn't prosecuting. It got really bad and the people in my very compassionate city realized it wasn't working. Sometimes, facing jail or an arrest is the rock bottom that someone needs to hit to turn their life around and he took that away. And he also took away locking up people who were victimizing others. Change is happening. Take heart. And vote!❤🗳
Thank you so much for this message!! So needed it today!! ❤️
You girls are a super bright light in my day ❤🥰
the bright green blouse really compliments your eyes
As Christians we should always want to be serving people and blessing people because in doing so you’re doing it to Jesus. I wish more Christians would get involved in SOMETHING!
I bought a month for Mother's Day! Can't wait to do the first Sat morning!
I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of the Bible study group! I can engage as much or as little depending on my life and busyness. A wonderful group of women and everyday I have an opportunity to feel encouraged or encourage others. Highly recommend it! ❤ also great video ladies 😉
Love both your channels. Appreciate both of you dear young ladies. And yes, it's so easy to be manipulated by the opinion shows that pass for news channels. We have to be so discerning what we listen to. 🙉 I gave up all network "news" because I did find it made me depressed and even angry. Congrats on your 50k!!! Keep doing the good works❤
It was nice that you did the dumpster for neighborhood and gift card to the Wome at the grocery store.
Such a tough thing regarding going to friends' houses...I prefer to host. My kids go to friends' houses, but when I don't know the parents I usually say no.
So. Tough. We’re just starting to navigate this… and we hope to host lots too!
You lovely young ladies are so encouraging. Uour love for Jesus blessed me. Thank you.
I LOVE you guys!! you talk the talk i understand.
Thank you. ❤️
These colors (blouses) look great on you two. 😊
Please thank Dawn for that… she got “our” colors done 😉💛
Woaaahhh, this started out so cute and then went soooo deep!! So Good! Shared with several loved ones.
Thank you, it truly means so much 🥹💛
I love this Diana! What a wonderful idea!
I been helping at my sons school thanks 2 you ladies
You both look terrific in this video.
LOVE YOU BOTH
Blessings on Ascension Thursday.
I love your Christ-centered conversations. Dawn, you look especially pretty in this video. Your sweater is supercute
I honestly don’t understand why people object to click bait titles. Why wouldn’t you name the video something to make people want to check it out? Personally, I watch everything you post because you are so enjoyable to watch. 🙂
The objection is the channel creator is using lies to manipulate people into watching something they may not be interested in. Time is valuable and using lies to take people’s time is bad.
@@elizabethlangheim7214 I understand your point; however, I would never expect a creator to be responsible for how I manage my time. I stop watching videos when I lose interest. Plus, I consider time on TH-cam to be recreational so I guess I don’t take the titles too seriously anyway. TH-cam creators are building businesses, and the metrics and algorithms are a big part of that growth. They are providing me with free entertainment, so I just don’t get bothered by such.
@@lauramccollum5686 I like to manage my time too. That’s why I think clickbait sucks. I do enjoy quirky titles and funny titles. Don’t really care for titles that lie outright and to lie just for views seems weird and a compromise of values but it is done quite a bit on TH-cam so I guess if you get rewarded with views then some people are okay with it. Some people like clickbait and some don’t. To each their own, I guess.
@@elizabethlangheim7214 ah, I totally had not focused on the fact that some click bait titles are essentially lies. Honesty is of utmost importance to me, and I had not made that connection. Thank you for sharing your perspective!
Please accept my apologies… I changed the title… I was having fun with the premise of the video and truly didn’t mean to offend… I’m really sorry! Please forgive me 🙏
Loved that point at the last
Great pull back to regardless of who’s right with there’s more crime or less crime, we have the Holy Spirit to guide and comfort us in the midst of all that’s going on no matter our perspective, skewed or not. And one day, one day in eternity this will all be done away with and there will be no more pain, suffering, dying, no more need to cry. And the Lamb will be in our midst and there will be no night 🎉 hallelujah
A M E N ! 🙌
Thank you for sharing !🙂🙂🙂
I love that you tricked us into watching today! (I would have watched anyhow...)
Thank you for this reminder! We will never figure everything out, but can listen to the Holy Spirit to at least have peace of mind and heart ❤️
You warm my heart❤
Hi Diana You look good in your green shirt 👕. I think when you do things with other people it makes you want to do it.i like the May challenge it is always nice to do things for others.Even just small things it makes you and the other person feel great. Thanks for another great video.
Excellent idea ~ thanks for sharing your grace.
I do not see a reduction in crime or violence. This is something that we should be aware of and prepare for, but not to despair in our lives. It is incredibly hard when it is close to or it directly affects you; and we are called to pray and keep looking up. Jesus said that these things must happen but not to worry because He has already overcome the world. I love watching you both, and I am trying to serve in May and often afterward. I love your ideas and how sweet and helpful you both are. I have truly had my home and heart transformed by you both. This video felt wrong when you began quoting someone about the crime and violence decreasing. It felt as though you were being deceived and passing this information along. For others who are living in ever increasing crime and violence it might seem uninformed. They should know that our hope isn't found in this world. It is found in everything that Jesus promised and knowing that He is on the throne. God is in control. Hope in truth, while going through adversity is better than false hope. Jesus told us these things so that when they happened, we would know that He is God. This is just feedback that I felt I had to share. I am subscribed, and I will keep watching. You both are light and joy. ❤ I pray that this is received not as criticism, but with consideration 🙏.
When my boys were young I opened my house (literally) and let the development kids in and they all got to play inside and outside. All was able to watch and to play. As they drew up they went their own ways but the memories are there
Sugar is a poisonous roller coaster to avoid. Up and down with blood sugar is hard on our bodies.
Nice conversation today ,The dark alley idea is very good!
Along with not putting our faith into an election. Thank you!!
What a great video thank you❤️🙏🏻
I love both of you girls videos,I have been so inspired by both of you - I’ve declutter about 50% of the things in my house - but seriously the world is not getting better ! Poverty is sky high and has become very dangerous now that we have open borders and 3rd world countries have sent us there criminals! Groceries and gas are sky high ! Most families are having a hard time paying the bills and buying food and clothing
Thank you for sharing ladies!! Diana…I’m hoping your shirt is from Amazon! Very cute!!
