You just gave me an AHA moment. It came to me this is a Mary-Martha story. Until this very moment I never quite agreed with that story. I felt that okay because she was listening to Jesus it was okay to sit down. Now I see it- the tasks are always going to be there, we have to walk away to be able to listen. Nikki I am 70, faithful, prayerful, but until this very moment I never felt the story in my heart. Thank you.
This was beautiful and so true. We have to choose to take time with Jesus. Otherwise the other things will always demand our time and attention. Jesus does not demand but instead He calls us with the still, soft voice through His Holy Spirit. Thank you for sharing this. It warmed my heart.❤
Nikki, thank you so much for this lovely video and much needed reminder that we are something much larger than ourselves and even when we are feeling overwhelmed to continue to count our blessings each day. Happy New Year to you and your family sweetheart! ❤
Nikki thank you for inspiring me during 2024.,I have enjoyed each video you have posted. I'm looking forward to seeing your new home with all of the beauty it holds.
This year had its ups and downs. Moving to a new state. Renovating our new house. My AFIB scare and heart surgery. My dog Augie died . Our former home sold and a new young family calls it their home now. ❤I’m so blessed! Even with those challenges. I felt Holy Spirit’s guiding hand. All is well.
Enjoy all your videos you make everything so beautiful and peaceful. When you feel you’re ready please do a video on your home inside and out I didn’t know that you had those beautiful doors into your dining room until today I’m so happy for you that you found this wonderful house
Nikki thank you for letting the Lord shine through you with your gifts, that you share with us. It has been a blessing to see you here and on Patron. Not only did you share your gifts, but your daughters and sister in law. Peace and blessings to you and your family.
I enjoyed vlogmas, too. I can only imagine the commitment and work it is to do it…you reinspired me and I can’t wait for the year to come! I ordered volume one of your book and need to reorder a planner- which I LOVE SO MUCH! Fun to see the new landscape and thank you for all you do!
Walking with God. Thank you for all the videos and care you took to produce them, considering what was going on in your life this past year. Happy New Year to you and all!
I want to say that you are unique and your videos is so much better than most of many content. Thank you for making us feel better after watching you ❤
I want to thank you Nikki for all the ways you've inspired me to make the everyday beautiful and to wear dresses daily! God bless you and your family ❤
Hello Nikki l need to thank you for helping me through the last few weeks. I have been extremely sad, and I lost my brother the day after Christmas Day. He lost his wife 6mnths ago and couldn't live without her. You have helped me in many ways you probably wouldn't know. The dear Lord has been by my side so l am not alone. Hoping for a better 2025. Wishing you and your family a wonderful New Year.❤❤
Thank you Nikki for sharing scripture...so beautiful! And thank you for the inspiration to send someone a meaningful card.❤ It was just the idea I needed today. My sister-in-law is in ICU and, since I can't be there, I'd like to tell her what she means to me. Right now definitely prayers for her, but also words from the heart would seem to matter too. Blessings❤
Blessings to you Nikki on this new year, 2025, the Lord has so many wonderful things in store! ✨🥂 Thank you for sharing this year and continuing to be such a blessing to us all 💛
This video was a wonderful way to end your year Nikki. I have been a faithful follower, and I have always found your videos your helpful and comforting. Thank you for sharing your helpful words for the new year and also your beautiful scenery, that I found to be so beautiful and peaceful to watch. God bless you and your family in the New Year.
Thank you for the beautiful inspiration. This really made me think, next step is action and start writing😊 Such a simple, still challenging exercise! Nature is my "sanctuary" too. It helps every time if I am troubled, tired, sad, overwhelmed - and multiplies all joy, happiness, gratefulness, contentment even more. In the midst of the creation I find it easier to hear the voice of the Creator himself. I could say that I am addicted to getting out in the nature and fresh air at least once a day😉
Wishing you and your family all the best for 2025! Thank you for all the hours and hard work you put into producing your videos, which are so inspiring to so many. Looking forward to seeing you in the year to come!
In God's eyes, we are not INsignificant. We are the apple of His eyes. WE our selves may feel insignificant but because of His magnificent creations. But we are His greatest creation. He loves us. God bless you and Happy New Year!
Hi Nikki, This video reminds me so much of your short films which I hold dear to my heart. I personally come alive when I am outside. Matter of fact, I am gazing upon cumulus clouds right now...
Thank you, Nikki, for another beautiful and inspiring year! I have been watching for years, and I keep coming back because I am always encouraged and inspired. God bless you and your precious family and wishing y'all a Happy New Year!❤🙏🏻🕊🎉
Happy New Year Nikki. I was wondering how the climate change might affect you. I loved what you said about the contrast of the cold weather and coming in to the warmth of your home, and being thankful. I could relate to that as my climate can be harsh, although beautiful. I'm looking forward to the new year with your channel. Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy and joyous 2025. ✨💖✨💖✨💖
A few years ago I wrote a floral note card to someone who I believed I had upset. They then questioned me about it in front of eleven other ladies at a craft club I was part of. I was so embarrassed and ended up apologising to them for sending it. We haven’t spoken since and unfortunately I find her company uncomfortable. Hopefully, although two years have passed, I just pray that one day she will become more polite if not friendly. 😢
Sometimes we are given signals that a friend is NOT a friend. The best thing that has happened to me this year is a “friend” showing her true colors. The relief was staggering!
I had a similar experience not long after I got married. My words were taken out of context in a beautiful card I sent a bride and it became a whole deal. It’s okay to apologize for offending someone while also letting them know that wasn’t your intention and having the understanding of doing your part to be at peace. Their reaction says much more about them than it does about you. Some people will always be offended but I commend you for having extended the grace you did. We need more of that in this world 🌹
@@ladycactus110Loved your comment. It reminds me of something I heard once: “When someone shows you who they really are, believe them.” I recently had a close (or at least I thought so) friend of 20 years suddenly blow me off. I asked if I’d done something to anger or offend and if I had, I’d like to talk through it. She assured me I hadn’t, that she was just busy. Two months later I could tell that wasn’t true. Right now it is hurtful and confusing. I hope I’ll be able to eventually see it as you do yours, a relief.
Hi Nikki I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed the vlogmas for 2024. I want to wish you a happy and healthy New Year. God bless you!
@@Mary-sd6bo I’m so happy to know that! Happy New Year 🌹
Beautiful scenery ❤

Nature does have a way of refreshing the mind. Especially if you're cooped up with sickness. Thanks for all of the inspiration this year.

People can act so oddly sometimes!
I'm so sorry this happened to you when you were trying to reach out and make amends..
