when i heard you say.... sombody NEEDS YOU!!... it sent chills down my spine.. so powerful! i just found you today and i have been binge watching you. new mama of 2.. have a 2 month old.. and i have been struggling. thank you for your videos!!❤❤
Love this! I will definitely be striving to have a hero mindset and catch myself when I see those victim or villain tendencies coming through. Thanks for the video! Very encouraging!
Oh Lana, I get your emails and often don’t look at them but today I did. After a long week of struggle with my kids and husband. I needed this. Thank you
What a great video Lana! I had the villian mentality this week with my chickens honestly. My husband let them out to forage and they did not want to come in. Usually we shake a bag of treats and they all listen so well. Trying to chase down chickens while 38 weeks pregnant in the heat got me heated. I responded in anger and my tone of voice scared them! Being so close to motherhood, I really turned to the Lord in conviction as I do not want to react to my baby like that at all!!! This video came at such a good time sister. God has used you in so many ways in my life and I am so grateful for how you not only share your struggles, but solutions that are grounded in truth with Jesus at the center in ways that are practical and easy to implement. Filing this video away for when we become parents. Thank you so much! God bless you always!
Right? So easy to even be a villain to the chickens, so cool that you made that connection that you were angry and couldn't control them. Whether it is chickens or children I think our reactions can be similar. SOOO excited for you friend and this new beautiful life!
Just found out we’re pregnant with 5th, and I feel like I can’t do it, but also so thankful! Do you have a video of your pregnancy supplements? Please keep making encouraging mama videos like this!! 💜
Ah so glad this video connected with you and yes this is what I want my videos to be, because I think so many of us can get discouraged and I want to yell from the top of my lungs, "what we are doing as mamas is soooo important, keep going!" AND so HAPPY for you finding out about your 5th! What a gift! I don't have a video with preg supplements, but if you download the free pregnancy survival guide in the description box it has all of them there plus some other helpful pregnancy help ❤
Congratulations! What a blessing! With that said, I've been there. Due with my 9th in 2 weeks. You can do it. God will walk you through it. It's hard. But it's so worth it. I was so scared to continue trusting God with our family size before having our fifth, but the Lord clearly said to me one day " is it really trust when you only trust me when it's easy?" I knew then I needed to trust him and our daughter was conceived shortly after that. That little girl was the biggest ray of sunshine. My kids after it's been easier because I can say what if I had said no to my 5th little one? How much less joy would I have. I know this baby will bless you beyond measure.
@@Sarah-psalm127 Wow so excited for you! What a blessing! I just love big families! And wow what a moment you can look back on where you chose to surrender and trust. Praying for wisdom as we move forward with our family size. Every child is such a blessing and I can't imagine missing out on one of them. God is so good and I am grateful He allowed us to be mothers, what a gift! Asking Jesus for a smooth, worshipful and beautiful birth for you! And for you to have that sweet babe healthy in your arms soon.
Thank you so much for this video. I was aware of this subconsciously but I could never really put words on it before I listened to this video. Thank you for those words of wisdom. It’ll help be more aware of my mindset from now on and hopefully be a better wife, mother and friend ❤
So glad this helped you! I know I have whole days where I am oblivious I am in victim and villain mode and then boom I realize oh my goodness, I am being so unkind or I am feeling sorry for myself. Just the awareness helps me switch over. Sending love Lisa for your journey! ❤🫶
Wooooaaaahhhh.. I NEEDED this today. How can it seem like I have a victim and villain mindset?? Wow. I have thoughts of waiting for my husband to get home so he can go through what I do.. and thoughts of being angry that ppl don't help me out!!
I think I play the victim and villain every day for sure, but once you start to realize it, boom it can shift everything! We play all the roles at some point or another, but we can slowly give the victim and villain mindset less air time. I feel you so much on waiting for hubs to get home, such a common feeling!
I rarely comment, but the wisdom coming out of your mouth is a gift from God. And I just have to comment to thank you for following your calling. I'm blessed by this video today! ❤
So grateful to be able to share and that anything I share can be a blessing to you! Thank you for pausing to encourage me. Sending love your way for your journey ❤
I must say that your UA-cam channel is a gem. I have been soo blessed watching your videos since I watched the 30 things you won't buy for a new born. Got directed to your channel from your friend, Margaret's video
Ah Yay I love Margaret! And sooo happy you found the channel and that is has blessed you! That is 100% my goal and thank you for pausing to encourage me! That means so much ❤Sending love your way!
Loved hearing how your faith, professional experience and motherhood has shaped you into who you are today. I would love to be mother soon - thanks for sharing your wisdom! I enjoy hearing someone that has been through it to offer advice as someone who has not yet begun the motherhood journey!
Wow Lana, thank you. God used this to cut me to the heart in a good way and encourage me to be more excited about motherhood. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
