So glad I found you ♥️ definitely felt inspired to jump back into school. I’m finishing up my degree and wondered how I was going to do it with just one child (I know not the same as two 😂). However, you really inspired me to see waking up early as “me time” especially with the Lord. Thanks from the bottom of my heart! Look forward to seeing more of your videos ☺️
This video made me so happy to watch. Grad school starts for me in 2 weeks and I’m a SAHM as well and I’ve been so overwhelmed and worried about how to get that alone time to refresh with God AND be a present mom. I’ve been looking at it all wrong, that early rising is for us ALL to be better as a family. Such a challenge at this time being that my baby isn’t sleeping all night yet. But that’s ok. Gonna do it anyway!
Girl !!! May God continue to give you the strength and guidance. This was very encouraging , thank you ! thank you for allowing God to use you for his glory. God bless you sister💜
I can relate to you on a lot of levels!! My husband was a pastor for the past 5 years (so I totally get the pastor's wife being a part-time job!). He just finished seminary, so I know how tough that journey is too. Way to go :) I'm just starting another degree myself, and I've been wanting to get up early before our 3 kiddos are up to get things done early, rather than late. I've always been a night owl, so it's a tough transition for me. I'm shooting for 6 am to get started and then move earlier as I acclimate!
That's awesome! Yeah, I've never been a night owl, so getting up earlier comes easier to me than staying up late! I don't know how you night owls do it! ;)
I absolutely loved your video! We have a similar morning routine (I have a blended family of 9) and used to cloth as well! Thank you for sharing, I feel very inspired again! (:
Thanks for the inspiratio, God truly led me to this video because ive been slacking alot and i hate it. I wamt to have spme Me-time with JEsus forst thing in the morning but i end up waking up when my oldest wakes up. I will wake up at 4am tomorrow and let you know how it went. New subscriber!💕
Girl you’re an inspiration. Do you use watercolor paint for your bible journaling? 🤗💕 i usually do my bible time before bed but I think getting up early would help me get more done. I’m inspired. Yes! It’s a beautiful day🤗
Staying Kingdom Minded haha I haven’t tried water color yet but I do have colored pencils! It’s so fun and relaxing 🤗💕the watercolor is just so gorgeous 😍
Kaycee Peterson yes I love Faiths! I am definitely going to give it a try, do you use a regular Bible to do your journaling in or a special bible for journaling?
@@HowtoFaithALife In addition to waking up early to utilize the quiet time as much as possible, I also try to make everything as consistent (routine) as possible, which saves me little bit of time here and there. And, I also make sure to spare 30 min. everyday to exercise. During the weekdays, I do bare minimum to maintain the house. On Saturdays, we usually attend birthday parties, social events, or fun family time. On Sundays, I do all the house chores and prepare for the week.
@@julieyoung-jooyi322 I totally agree- working out daily can be a game changer for my mind, body and motivation! I’m a lot more productive after I workout! But yes, block time is necessary! Something someone recently told me that was incredibly freeing was, “you have two kids, your house isn’t supposed to be clean!” And that was super helpful to hear that I didn’t have to live up to that Pinterest/Instagram perfect-house- idea that I had in my head!
That is amazing! I struggle to get up early, probably because I don't really plan out anything to do in the mornings. I need to start making a list or something for the morning because im WAY too tired when I get home from work to do much more than cook dinner and do the dishes 😅 #pregnantmomstruggles you're doing a great job!
Chanda Elizabeth oh yeah, pregnancy exhaustion always made me SO LAZY in the evenings! I am just a morning person. I’d rather get up at 1am than stay up till 1am!
I have to leave for school around 7:20 so I wake up at 5:00-5:30 am I give my self to 6:00 to do my quiet time, then while I get myself ready I love to listen to the Just thinking podcast by Darrell Harrison one of my pastors he’s a man of many words lol 😂. When I charge my phone I put it next to my Bible so when my alarm goes off I’m reminded to read my Bible and not go on my phone I know it’s weird, but it works best because if it’s on my dresser I won’t have to get up to turn it off so I’ll go back to sleep then I’ll be late for school.
I am a student with 5 kids, one is disabled and recently started having seizures. I have lost my routine because of this. I think, in the future, I am gonna take the 16-week classes. The 8-week classes are just too conde when you are going through a hard season.
You are indeed a strong Mum. The Good Lord Jesus Christ will surely level all high mountains for you. All things are doable by the grace of God Sis. All the best.
Lol OH YES! We are obsessed with peanut butter in this household! I literally had cereal and peanut butter for dinner tonight 🤣 my favorite peanut butter is the Jif reduced fat one because it’s got an amazing grainy texture!
I will say: this was only for a season! But I went to bed around 10/11pm and then would wake up at 4. Eventually it turned into a bedtime at 12. Definitely wasn’t sustainable, but it got me through a good, but demanding season. I made a video about moving out of that season which you can find here: ua-cam.com/video/_k11SO2Ixg0/v-deo.html
@@HowtoFaithALife the fact that you are so bucked up with school being a wife and mom wow im truly amazes! I appreciate you pushing out so much content to help others ! This inspiration you gave me will hopefully push me to do the same. Much love your sister in Christ
Hey, i am a mother of 3 and planning to move to USA as an international student. Will I be able to manage everything as a single mom. What courses should I take to study online as postgraduate degree
📓 Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I just started attending school. I am focused on being positive and focused. I am a mother of 4 children. My youngest is two years old. This video gave me more motivation. Mothers need time to ourselves to prepared for the day. I have the same routine as well. I get asked how do I maintain and your video explains it all. Be prepared Be Productive. Thank you 📓💛😌
As a haard-working mother of two (2) active kids, and an online study mom who try to keep God in the center of my life, this motivated me so much.

Hi Faith. Thank you for sharing with us your daily life. God is so good. He provides a way for us even when it may be difficult. The reward is great
Amen! That's so true! And to God be the glory!
Well said!!
BEAST MODE!!!!!!!

Yay! I am so glad! That is music to my ears that I could inspire and encourage you!
We just started playing with watercolors around here lol. Loving it!

You don't have to wake up at 4am like me, even just 5 minutes earlier makes a difference in my life!
Thank you for this video! Very inspiring.. I’m wondering at what time do you go to sleep to be able to wake up at 4am and do all the mommy duties etc?
Girl you’re an inspiration. Do you use watercolor paint for your bible journaling? 🤗💕 i usually do my bible time before bed but I think getting up early would help me get more done. I’m inspired. Yes! It’s a beautiful day🤗
I do! They are just cheap dollar tree water color paints, but I love how much prettier it makes my bible journaling!
How to Faith A Life it’s so pretty! I love it! I’ll have to pick some up, thanks for the tip 💕💜
Kaycee Peterson I’ve never tried water color painting with my Bible Journaling but you girls got me over here like...maybe I need to :) lol

Nice video
I'm taking notes
I am also a Ph.D student with two kids. I also wake up at 4am.
Woah! Yeah, it’s hard to make it work without that extra time! Any tips?

I was getting up at 5, but I’ve been slacking lately. I’m inspired to get back to it! Also, what bible are you using in this video?
Kassandra Waltenburg it’s my new ESV Bible journaling bible!
It's the interleaved bible by Crossway!
How do u go running with them? Strap them on?
❤
Thank you. This was so helpful. 💛🌞
You're so welcome!
Okay, I literally thought I was the only who put peanut butter in my oatmeal! Lol thank you for proving I’m not the only one! 😂

What time do you go to sleep

Hi. Do you take nap in the noon ? Or eve ?
Most of the time I get up at 2:30 AM with my husband so he can go to work and I stay up all day with no nap lol
Inspiring :) What time do you sleep?
Usually I am for 10pm but typically it's 11! I thrive off of the 5-6 hrs of sleep a day. More or less than that and I am groggy.
I wake up after my kiddo 😅 cause last two years had been sleepless and insomniac ahahahaha
So what time to you go to bed?? 🙃
Good question! Like 10/11!
