The fact that this video came this morning is NOT a coincidence 🥹 my youngest daughter just turned 6 today. I have felt so convicted to HOMESCHOOL our two girls for the last 9 months. I told my husband today I’m ready to put my two weeks in so I can be home again with our girls! We’ve been praying constantly for this so I greatly appreciate your view on this!
That’s amazing!! Will say a prayer! You won’t regret the time you will have with your kids. I’m a stay at home mom and it’s worth it overall. God will provide!!! He has for us!!! He provides our needs each day!!
@@michellelutz4980thank you so much for the encouragement ❤ I stayed home the last two years and then ended up back at work once school started. I felt like those two years I took for granted and now I see how precious and little time we do have! I’m glad you are able to stay home and be with your littles. Praying soon that will be our reality too ❤
Wow. The Lord is working in those who call on Him. I've just submitted my resignation to be home with my girls who homeschool, they're 10 and 13. Even at this age, it's very important to be home, especially these days! The Lord will bless you immensely as I believe He will do with me and all the other women who are heeding the call to be at home, if they can do so. I'm excited for you hon. 🤗
Yes! I’ve been a stay at home home for almost 24 years. It is such a blessing! We have 6 children (2 have grown and flown) and we’ve lived off of one income. It can be done! 😊
I just fired from a job I thought was secure and I loved! I was totally blindsided. Now my household is losing $4000 per month. I’m not worried. I know God will provide. However, I have no idea what Gods plan is for my life at this point. Ty for this video!! God bless!!❤
My husband is disabled so I am the main breadwinner. We’ve never liked the trade of gender roles in the workforce, but it’s what we we’ve had to do in our situation and I’ve grown to even enjoy it. Over the past month or so, I’ve been feeling a longing to be a SAHM for our four littles, this week it has been upgraded to a calling 😅. I brought it up to my husband last night that maybe I should start part time with the goal of moving to full time at home. We’d have to fully rely on God’s provision each month like the Israelites with manna. I reminded him we are to pray for our daily bread and, while he saw the benefits of testing our faith, he seems pretty opposed to me quitting my job. I will follow my husband’s lead of course, but I feel torn because it does feel like the Lord’s leading. And while it is scary to think of not having a steady income, I have peace and even excitement about the idea. Please pray for correction in either my own heart or my husband’s and that we can firmly follow God’s leading. Thank you for your ministry!
I'm a single mom who works full time from home and also homeschools my daughter. My husband left me several years ago, but I was determined to find some way to be at home to raise & teach my daughter myself. As much as I desire to be able to be a home-maker and pour more of my time & energy into my home & daughter, I am still grateful that I can at least work my job from home ❤
I submitted my resignation by faith! We're losing a lot of income but gaining more trust in our Father who provides. Im still working, as im transitioning out with training others, but i cant wait! I will go back as a contractor for a week here or there when my employer needs help. I love my job and employer, but the call to be home for my family is greater. Although i work from home, it is in no way easy with homeschooling children. I am still "absent". So, faith it is!!!
I WFH most days too and I think it’s almost worse for my kiddos than on the days I go into the office. They see me there and ask for me to play with them or help them and it breaks their heart (and mine!) every time I have to say I can’t. I do step away and help but my youngest are three and a newborn so a few minutes here and there aren’t cutting it. So yes, I am here but absent, well put. So glad to see you and so many other moms and wives stepping out in faith and leaving their jobs for home! Praise God and well done to you! ❤️👍🏻
Ive been feeling to stay at home with my 2 year daughter and home school her so strongly but been panicking about how to do it. My husband works so hard and is away alot but earns very little. I have always earned alot more than him. This video popped up just when i needed it. Its given my the nudge to do what i think the Lord wants me to do. Thank you for the encouragement
I would love to turn the clocks back 27years and be a stay at home mum - but it wasnt a 'done' thing where i grew up. It was go to work. After 35years as a nurse and getting covid, ending up in a coma and at deaths door with the doctors telling my family no more intervention as it would be futile- im now at home but kids are grown up. If you can stay at home i would say Go for it!
I worked a part time job from 5-9am and it worked perfect for us homeschooling and helped bring in some extra income. Some major safety concerns arised and my husband asked me to quit, immediately. This has been my first week home full time in 5 years. My time with the Lord has already increased. We are putting our faith in Him to meet our needs. There was a grieving process at first with this change. Now the Lord is opening my eyes to things at home that have not had my attention that need it. We already lived pretty frugal but these tips really helped. We already see the savings in gas and food just this last week.
I thank you for this video. I thank God I took the time to watch. I’m at work right now doing reports while uncomfortable and in pain. I have been working a ton of overtime and overworking myself. I’m a first responder and there are days where I want to be home with my family making cookies. I pray I can get to the point of being able to be home. I’ve been in this profession for 20 years & I am so ready to focus on my first ministry!
I love being a stay at home mom/wife! Even though our daughter's grown I still take care of our home, pets, and husband. We don't have cable and only have 1 streaming service that's $6 a mos., we limit going out to eat ,I feel like going out to eat is a huge waste of money and it's healthier to eat at home too. I agree with everything in your video. Thank you.
I have been a stay at home wife and mama for almost 24 years and it has been a true blessing. We were able to homeschool our children and be so much closer. We had hard times, but it always drew us closer to God and each other. ❤😊
I LOVE being at home! My husband makes the money but it’s my job to keep as much of it from going out as possible. I make things into a game to keep it fun. I’ll challenge myself to only spend $10 a week on groceries and eat food that’s in our freezer or pantry. We’ll have a no spend month where we don’t spend a dime on anything not absolutely necessary. If you can do those types of things with some friends, it really makes it fun. Heidi…maybe that’s a video idea?🤔
This has been my dream my whole life, but as a single mumma long term who has tried many different attempts to stay at home with my children I am always not able to work out how. It is on my heart daily, my bills are on my shoulders as the head of my family and the income earner it is not in my path so far. I was gifted three beautiful children but not the path of wife unfortunately. Even so my family and home are my heart and my absolute first service in my life and I do my best to balance all
Love this so much! ❤ Yes, it's not about privilege, it's about being willing to make sacrifices and think creatively to be able to afford to stay home. I can say it's way cheaper for my family for me to be home than to be working a full-time job outside the home. But mostly, the spiritual and emotion gain far surpass the financial.
This video is exactly what i needed today! 👏 I love how God works! I took a layoff from work that starts Jan 1st and have been asking God for a sign that I was making the right decision and then this video popped up! My kids are all grown but staying home will let me help with the Grands and keep my house and have time for a ministry.
☕️ I struggle and relate to this so much. I stepped down from a well-paying corporate job 2 years ago intending to stay home and maybe start our family, but ended up taking a job offered by some church friends at their small business to help them out, thinking it would be less time consuming and less stressful and closer to where my husband works (at church), so a win-win… but it has turned out to be just as time consuming and stressful and less money (which I don’t care so much about the money, it’s more the time and sitting 9 hours a day, 5 days per week in front of a computer, it’s causing me physical health issues too). If I knew it wouldn’t cause bad relations with our church friends I still desire to pursue my original goal of being a stay-at-home wife and starting our family, but I don’t want to leave my church friends in a bind with their business. Not sure what to do. I want to do what God has been calling me to do for a long time, and the biological clock is ticking too, but not sure how to go about it now. Any prayers and/or advise welcomed. ❤
I have been single my whole life of 26 and I have made a lot of bad choices in my walk with Christ. I have depended on me a lot and never fully given it all over. The times God had moved the greatest for me was when I put my complete trust in Him. I realize I can’t work outside. I took a year off work and I was so much more rested. There are times I don’t seek the Lord before I do something and always end up regretting. What I’m getting to was I thought I never wanted to marry and was okay living on my own and recently come to the conclusion that no I can’t. I would take stay at home wife/ mom. I know for sure I don’t want to send my kids if I do to these public schools or daycare. Also I make more than enough to know I can live on less. I just need to find someone with the same mindset. Please pray for me I want to give it all over to our Lord. I can’t rest in this crazy work life.
I am making a practice of saying "The Lord's Prayer" several times day. It's really helping me stay focused on God being sovereign, seeking his will, contentment with my needs being met, etc. So foundational for having the right mindset to make all decisions, including where God wants me. Lovely video, Heidi.♥️🇨🇦
Praise God, we just finished week one of me being a stay-at-home wife and mom ❤ my incredible husband is working so hard for this gift. I would never trade this for the world. I have neglected my home due to work. And even more precious to me is being able to focus fully on my beautiful baby without stress of having to clock back in. Im so thankful. All glory be to Christ our King ❤ praying for all the ladies that are desperate like i was to be home ❤
I would love a section about this in the geneva app where people can share ways, no matter how small they seem, that they work to save money where they can.
I was under poverty level in SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA when we left public school, it was a scary move but we discovered abuse and I researched how often this stuff occurs....this was in 2017. We were threatened with "truancy officers" until I reminded them our child wasn't school age until 5 months in the future and they could consult my attorney (we didn't have one, but I didn't know- we didn't need one either!!!) We started with a charter school. I had already been stuck at home to leave my clinical psychology degree behind, I was going to finish school when my child was in school full time but we would be in massive debt now! We couldn't even afford for me to work. Cost for a reliable car, fuel, uniforms etc, we would have to pay the childcare more than I'd make! How crazy would that be?! Lol Plus you pay taxes if you earn an income. We are having a tough go again, though thank God we live in a safer area in a decent apartment. Most of our clothing is stained with some holes in it etc. I stopped buying make up and fancy bras etc because most of that stuff is toxic anyway and 100% unecessary. (Even with very rare bra size that's hard to find- I definitely splurge on a nice bra during sales every few years). I have TIME to find deals as Heidi says. I try not to roll my eyes when I hear my sister crabbing about groceries when they have two really good incomes, she could be home...and her kids really would do great with that. But she really is intimidated about spending the time with them, and not buying the newest most expensive tech etc. It's frustrating when people think we are wealthy because we homeschool. But nope, we just got smart. We have a few nice outfits for special occasions, that we don't touch until then. But being able to really plan out expenses and able to spend two or three hours shopping for quality foods at a deal- it's amazing! ❤ God will provide for us as is meant to be. We should work, no doubt. He doesn't say be lazy or it's a free ride. My husband works hard and I do too at home and my husband has given me credit for his endurance at work due to my support. 🥰 It's especially sad how underestimated our value is in actively parenting our own children as the primary caregivers (not as an official title but legitimately THE person my kids are taught by, supported by etc). When our first child was a baby I was so intimidated since I was never around kids or into kids. 😅 But I wanted to be with him every moment. 💓 Going on a friend's date or date with my husband was just mostly anxiety and sadness when I missed some new thing he did. It goes by FAST! ⏩⏩⏩ For sure so many opportunities to work from home, I have a special needs child that takes a ton of time but my husband is starting to pull back from work, so I plan to start making some money on the side. When my kids are older, I hope my special needs son can either be independent or can help me in my company. 😊
Thank you for this, I’ve been contemplating this for way to long, will you be willing to talk with me one on one my situation is a bit unique and sometimes I do feel a bit stuck.
@@HeavenlyMindedHome I just don't understand why you hold to the Jewish part of scripture ( which is beautiful) but no God's unchanging law. I believe we should keep Shabbat and follow God's law the best we are able to. The holy Spirit is given so that the law could be written in our hearts for us to follow. There actually nowhere in scripture that tells us the law has been done away with. None of the apostles ate unclean so why do we assume we can. The reference the "church" gives about Peter's dream is totally out of context. God made it clear to Peter that the unclean men seeking him, he should talk to because initially he didn't want to mingle with the " unclean". I am not coming against you. This was super eye opening to me and I was blown away!! After studying and seeing this for myself! It makes sense that God laws are unchanging forever and Jesus said himself he did not come to do away with the teaching of the law or the prophets so why are we believing that the apostles were given the authority to change the law. No they kept it and upheld it. ❤️ If you feel this is wrong. I'd love for you to send scripture references. Happy shabbat ❤️
You need to lower your bills, move somewhere cheaper, start a family cottage business, etc.... there's always options! :) It just often takes us somewhere uncomfortable or somewhere where faith is needed and we stand in our own way. XO
Really love your content, however I still disagree with 'If you do not have the money for it then you do not need it' I seriously struggle being in ministry and that is not because I have to many coffees or maybe am not living frugly enough. It is not that I do not trust the LORD but sometimes it just does not add up. Anyway have a blessed day.
I could go on for days with the standard life items our family hasn’t had… for years… and the frustration that comes from that. The point being- the Lord provides. And He knows what we need, and promises to be that. So, if we still don’t have it… it must be ok. Not easy, not preferred, but doable. Because we get by, one way or the other, regardless. It often doesn’t all add up- but God.

I understand...Obstacles, debt and we living a pretty frugal life....
How is it possible
I would love a section about this in the geneva app where people can share ways, no matter how small they seem, that they work to save money where they can.
This is a great suggestion! I would love to here everyone's tips and trips.
Agreed! We’ll add that! I have a few Geneva ideas I’m excited to implement for our group! Xoxo

Unfortunately, a lot of families have qualified for mortgages using 2 incomes.

For sure so many opportunities to work from home, I have a special needs child that takes a ton of time but my husband is starting to pull back from work, so I plan to start making some money on the side. When my kids are older, I hope my special needs son can either be independent or can help me in my company. 😊
God's design trumps man's.
Every time! 🙌🏼
Thank you for this, I’ve been contemplating this for way to long, will you be willing to talk with me one on one my situation is a bit unique and sometimes I do feel a bit stuck.
Absolutely- send me an email! Xoxo
Hi! I love your deep understanding on following the Lord of Israel but explain why you don't eat clean/ kosher? Genuinely curious
Scripture! It lays it all out for us- and I want to focus on the substance and not the shadow. www.gotquestions.org/Bible-foods.html
@@HeavenlyMindedHome I just don't understand why you hold to the Jewish part of scripture ( which is beautiful) but no God's unchanging law. I believe we should keep Shabbat and follow God's law the best we are able to. The holy Spirit is given so that the law could be written in our hearts for us to follow. There actually nowhere in scripture that tells us the law has been done away with. None of the apostles ate unclean so why do we assume we can. The reference the "church" gives about Peter's dream is totally out of context. God made it clear to Peter that the unclean men seeking him, he should talk to because initially he didn't want to mingle with the " unclean". I am not coming against you. This was super eye opening to me and I was blown away!! After studying and seeing this for myself! It makes sense that God laws are unchanging forever and Jesus said himself he did not come to do away with the teaching of the law or the prophets so why are we believing that the apostles were given the authority to change the law. No they kept it and upheld it. ❤️
If you feel this is wrong. I'd love for you to send scripture references.
Happy shabbat ❤️
What if your bills are more then your husbands income?
You need to lower your bills, move somewhere cheaper, start a family cottage business, etc.... there's always options! :) It just often takes us somewhere uncomfortable or somewhere where faith is needed and we stand in our own way. XO
🙏🏻 Amen
Really love your content, however I still disagree with 'If you do not have the money for it then you do not need it' I seriously struggle being in ministry and that is not because I have to many coffees or maybe am not living frugly enough. It is not that I do not trust the LORD but sometimes it just does not add up. Anyway have a blessed day.
I could go on for days with the standard life items our family hasn’t had… for years… and the frustration that comes from that. The point being- the Lord provides. And He knows what we need, and promises to be that. So, if we still don’t have it… it must be ok. Not easy, not preferred, but doable. Because we get by, one way or the other, regardless. It often doesn’t all add up- but God.
