I can’t imagine how refreshing it would be to spend a weekend in the mountains with you. Just talking about scripture and what God has done in our lives over hot tea. That would be heaven to me
"deep down they don't want you happy, functional, joyful, and free." I heard once that part of the definition of idols is that they ALWAYS promise everything and deliver nothing. So many things are designed to perpetuate emptiness, unworthiness, envy, insecurity, dissatisfaction. That's how they get us to stay stuck in a cycle of returning and returning to the hamster wheel. The truth is we have to trust God that He knows best and step off the hamster wheel. 🇨🇦♥️
I had a point in my life when I was very lonely,,,,I had never had a dog and at 60 years old I didnt ever plan on getting one. I decided one day to get a pup,,,, he has definitly changed my life. I love seeing you with your pups,,I know they are much loved by you and they bring you comfort.
I just quit my job of almost 8 yrs. Over a year ago, I started praying for God's will and for him to close the doors he wanted closed and open the doors he wanted open in my life. It took me a year to figure it out, he was closing this door. When I said I was quitting, peace fell on me :) I'm at so much peace and I'm trusting him for another job, or for me to be still for a while.
i am old enough to be your "auntie", lea but still listen to and love your words. prayers for all of us who have gathered within your little community.
You have no idea how much I needed to hear this message everything you started saying at minute 8 and above. I am in tears I think I received my answer from above
I’m amazed every time when The Heavenly Father gives me confirmation of the wisdom He gives me in my quiet time. It shows it is the same Spirit working in the lives of His people. Tears are welling up as I watch this as I experience His peace, joy and guiding Spirit when I surrender what I think I want and go His way for me. It truly is humbling. I’m praying for you. Please pray for me as well. Be blessed sister. ❤
I have followed your channel for quite a few years. Lea I watched this video twice and it moved me to tears both times. This video could have been posted uncut and unedited, and still been profoundly impactful. But wow, the music, scripture quote and the way you captured the peacefulness you have after the surrender….it’s powerful. Thank you Lea for such a moving, inspirational and heartfelt video. Thank you for taking your precious time and talent to spread the healing medicine of hope, courage, wisdom and love from Him who strengthens us. ❤
This made me cry. I finally feel I can breathe. I was desperate to find a channel that was about peace, and I was just giving up, when, all of the sudden, your title grabbed me. This is the first time watching you, and, this is what I was asking for. I cried. Thank you.
@@ericawhitfield9289 Oh my goodness! Thank you. I believe I already do love it. What a sweet and kind community this is. I am wishing you all of the best.
I had a very similar experience to you. I am so glad you are sharing this. I haven't been brave enough to share mine on camera, but maybe one day I will. I was career driven, scared to start a family, full of worry and stress, and had felt tied to an identity that truly was not me. I was left feeling overwhelmed, burned out, and no matter what I did, I could not see relief in sight. Then I felt called to let go of my job, some friends, some relatives, and things I that weren't serving me. I started reading my Bible and felt the most fulfilled I had felt in a long time. Many light bulb moments. I came to the realization that although I removed myself from so much, which in the past I saw as a loss, I gained so much more. It was a leap of faith that benefited me in so many ways. The Most High God gets all the glory for that. Keep sharing your testimonies of the goodness of our father. I am grateful for you and look forward to your next videos. May God continue to bless you, your channel, and all those who feel the same calling.
I love your new format. Thank you for speaking the truth that we all need to hear. I am 65 years young and you teach me something every time I watch. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Sending love ❣️
My sweet sister Lea! This message was from Father God! I was told yesterday that the small b&b that I'm manager of with a small apartment and kitty is being sold and most likely I'll need to vacate. Im a 58 yr old widow with no children and have very little means. I rely upon my Lord Jesus to provide and He has every step of the way. There is s strong possibility of moving in with friends that have become family but that's across the country. I live in the Northeast too. Hopefully my older kitty will be able to come with me. I will be leaving behind family and friends I've had for decades but also stepping away from a long relationship that has pulled me down. I trust but I'm nervous. Thank you for your encouragement! Im making scones at the teahouse i work for and crying. You are so special and I long for a life like yours ❤God bless you dear
Thank you sister Lea I'm sitting here crying my husband walked out on our marriage without fighting for it 9 months ago now this journey has been hard but our Lord is my strength in my weekneess he has taught me so much through it and still everyday I pray for my husband I have forgiven him he is with another woman so your message really touched my heart God bless you my sister love and blessings from Australia ♥️
This video brought me to tears. I don't even know why. I think it's because I really felt each and every single word you spoke. It touched my heart. Thank you 🙏
I was teaching our daughters about how God doesn't want us to dress in a way that encourages visual adultery. Our 15 yr old (who happens to look like a fashion model) was perplexed with the cultural norms and said,"What's the point of even trying to look pretty if you really want to obey God." I pointed her to your channel. It IS possible. Thank you for shining a beautiful Light. God bless.
Why can't people, especially Christian moms and dads, simply teach their daughters that they're pretty even without "trying to be" pretty? People focused on physical appearance are focused on this world. Would this channel be less "worth watching" if the presenter is "plain" as determined by a society that worships looking like a supermodel? Be careful what you teach girls and young women about outer beauty, when God does not look at that when He sees his creation.
I remember when I hit my bottom and prayed to God that I needed him, I can’t live my life like this anymore . To show me the way I needed to live my life and he did. I’m so thankful for that❤
Spot on about pride being the issue when we have to acknowledge maybe I need to turn around or go a different way. It can be really hard to work through.
Thank you “Auntie Lea” for being here during a time of uncertainty and lamenting my husband and I are going through. Your videos help me keep going each day.
I am complete agreement with you. I was wrong about my career choice in the past. It took a huge health crash in my late 20s and I had to make the choice to either live or die. If I would have continued on the same path I would have died. I gave up a LOT and my life has never been better!!
Everything you say makes sense to me. I have had a spiritual awakening recently, it was amazing. I know whats holding me back. Tonight i will pray for gods help, hes helped me in the past, i know for sure. Then i go back to my past ways and end up in pain. Its time for change. Thankyou for saying 'its alright'. Sending kind wishes ❤xx
Your story really made me think of Psalm 51 and I think it's so beautiful so see a fellow christian woman share such vulnerable thoughts in order to inspire others :) Please keep in mind that your hard work here is appreciated ❤️
I've needed God more and more. In the big things and the small. March 17th was my granddaughters birthday....July 10th will be her death anniversary. It's going to feel so heavy. Last spring and summer was absolutely horrible. It was difficult to hold on to faith. Yet we held on...A peace beyond our understanding. Our granddaughter was Journee Grace....And this past year has been a Journey of Grace because we couldn't have made it otherwise ❤ God bless wonderful spring ahead of us. I love this life, but I can't wait till I'm home with the father. We will continue the Journee ❤
Thank u for your channel! The LORD had me step away from Facebook and Instagram. I am now no longer seeking the approval of others, but the approval of MY CREATOR! Something that I thought would be so hard to step away from turned out to be so freeing! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I needed to hear this. Thank you so much! This left me in tears, I went down the wrong path recently and made my way back. I felt like I was losing the freedom I built for myself but really God was bringing me back to freedom in Him because what I was doing was not for me. Thank you again!
We have to give it up at the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ so that He can fill us with His will alone. Thank you Lea. May the Lord keep and bless your little family. 🌷
This video came at the perfect time. I am in a very difficult season full of lots of change/transition, and it has been very overwhelming. So grateful that God is using you and your channel to speak encouragement and hope to my soul. Thank you so much. ❤️ Blessings 🕊
Your have been anointed by our Savior to speak and encourage. What a beautiful spiritual gift! When you posted scripture on Isaiah, I heard the Lord speaking to me. I left work on 06/27/due to anxiety and stress. I kept taking on more and more, my health started to fail. I have another month to go but I am going to turn around on the path and listen for Jesus and begin a different life style. My our Lords blessing multiple on you! Thank you for helping your sisters in this spiritual warfare. Our world has fallen, but we know who’s ultimately in charge! ❤️
I really pray this msg reaches more ears who need to hear it so many people are caught in traps and don’t know what to do but I believe this God given wisdom in this video will help deliver many from the snare and deliver them from sinking sand and set their feet upon the rock ‘ from the valley to the mountain Top 🙏🏻🕊️
As a mom of 5 young girls, I thank God for women like you who can bring wisdom and encouragement into other young women’s lives. Sometimes they need to hear these words from someone other than mom 😉 You are a blessing ❤
My morning rituals are to step outside on the deck to breathe in fresh air, check the birdfeeders, start my morning tea, and meditate. I also keep an affirmation and gratitude journal each day. It's really helped me to accept myself, give myself and others grace, and have empathy for others who might need a lift. You have been a different kind of fresh air to breathe. Thank you! Bless you!
You are truly blessed to live where you can wander around in beautiful place and peaceful surroundings to explore and listen to the inner voice of God guiding you towards your true path in life .i wish you well and thank you so much for sharing your journey this far ..
Since I found your channel YEARS ago, I've viewed you as my big sister in the faith. I still do, and I treasure your wise counsel and connectedness to the Lord. Time after time, you encourage, and equip me to go back to the Word and to cling to the Lord❤❤❤ thank you!
Due to ill health my world is getting smaller and smaller. Even the church is no longer a regular part of my life. As i look to a future where everyone i know moves forward, which is right and good that they do, i see them disappear into the distance. But God is with me as my old life fades away and a new one begins, alone perhaps but not lonely.
Exactly! You can always take a new direction even if it means effort. The thing is to pray for wisdom to know when and where. I think God will guide us as to the how. So appreciate you! ❤
Thank you for your words today. I am at a crossroad, needing to make a decision regarding a work position. I have suffered with adrenal issues, anxiety, and hormones. Your message has blessed me today... like it was just two friends chatting! Thank you xx
I just wanted to say.. please keep doing what you are doing and being a place of calm, of testimony, of gentleness and truth. It is clear to see that you are a light driven by His purpose and calling. Thank you so much for your calming reminders of His presence and His calling for us women in every video.
I'm sitting on the front porch enjoying the breeze, taking in Scripture & being grateful the heat has lessened. I'm going from one story to the next they are so encouraging. Today I noted you sometimes mention your regrets when modeling. Only today I thought you are still modeling in this season it's a model of living well & trusting in our Lord. Amen 🙏 ❤
I showed this video to my daughter and I could tell she was very moved by your words. Thank you. She is contemplating decisions for her future that would not be good for her. As a parent it’s painful and scary to watch. Thank you for this. 🌷
This message has really, really, spoke to my spirit. May the God of Abraham bless you for this my sister in Christ! Thank you, thank you and thank you!!!!!!
It felt like I just spent an afternoon with a good friend Lea. This is probably the most personable video I’ve watched you do as of recent. Just lovely. Some of the things you said, I struggled not to cry. God has been so good to me and I’m so grateful He always finds me right where I’m at. Thank you for the video and kind words Lea! ❤
I have followed a path that was never meant for me just because I was so afraid of admitting it. It took away the best years of myself - though I still have many left! - and a lot of happiness. Life's funny. Today was the day I definitely realised that I have to let go and pursue other things - I may like to do some content creating - and your video comes along. It's so true, it is never too late and it's never too difficult, though it is indeed so scary.
I searched to find this video to watch again and save. It gave me so much encouragement the first time and had again this time. Thank you Lea for being such a faithful servant. ❤
I am so grateful for you. Thank you for being a friend I can listen to and enjoy being with. Your video today was spot on to this Season of my life... Yesterday was traumatic for me and my boys. I realized so many truths will never be changed unless I'm brave.
This message is so timely. It reinforces that I need to pursue God's purpose and let go of the rest. In the last few days I was listening to a bible meditation and the meditation talked about how we are in a FOMO culture .... we pursue everything for fear of missing out ...when we need to be in JOMO ... joy of missing out ... where we are focused on what is important with Joy and we are letting go of the rest. Blessings to you.
Hello Lea. I was in search of finding information on herb gardens...to my unexpected surprise I was lead to your most beautiful channel. There lies a discovery of hope and wisdom that I could not ever imagine finding. Everything about what you are conveying to the listener is everything I need to hear. We all need to hear this. In the very struggles I am currently facing, this channel has come to me at a most needed time. And I know that it is the Holy Spirit that has guided me here. You are a beautiful soul. God must have a great love for you. I wish I could thank you in person! You have a very special gift that only God himself can give. God bless you in your work.🌿🌷🌿
When everything we were programmed for doesn’t make sense we feel like we wander in confusion for decades which leaves us feeling fatigued and lost . With patience comes wisdom . And sometimes you just have to let go and let god . And that’s the time the light shines in the darkness.
You touch the part of me that I so long for. I will be 67 in April and ice is to slow down and listen to God. I have lost family and friends because I don’t do the things they do. Educational tv shows on tv but none of the other stuff that goes on. We are in the last days I wish I could get the kits you offered and the journal but I do with what I have and learn from God and the land. God loves you and so do I!!!!!
When you said "deep down they don't want you happy and free" ❤ oh yes, totally agree! How many times we take a certain path just because "is the easiest way" but not really what we want... or because "we've been told so" but we're not sold... Learning how to give up is necessary to grow and become a better version of ourselves ❤
Dear Lea, i so appreciate your videos, your wisdom, your sharing from your experience and heart. Your videos are a blessing!! I too am on my journey of faith, you continue to inspire me by living the truth. He is " The Way, The Truth, and The Life". Praise be to God. May He richly bless you for your faithfulness. ❤😊
I am 63 and have had to say, I was wrong many many times. In my twenties/early thirties I did what society was making me feel like I should do. My husband only wanted me to be happy and do want I felt like I needed to. I finally came home from work one day and told him I can't do it. I have to choose where I want my energy to go and I choose staying home, managing it, raising our children, making healthy meals, gardening, and so on. He told me to do it, He told me whatever makes my soul feel less stress, less anxiety and to allow joy in. That is what I have done since and we are still together, loving life and letting joy in. You are so right with your message. Peace, Love and Joy to you. May anyone needed to make a decision find the strength to do so.
You are so sweet and inspiring! I really appreciate your message in this video. How profound! It resonated with me so much! I lived the crazy life of trying to keep up in a mans world. I did end up sick with thyroid problems. I have been trying to “let go” of expectations and that lifestyle. I find it scary but everyday gather up a little more wisdom! Thank you again for sharing your journey and the season of life you are in now. So precious to watch and share with you! God bless you! I do feel like you are my friend! Very grateful! Linda
Lea I needed to hear this! I’m going through some struggles right now and needing to make some changes. I’m trying to lean on God and know his plans are greater than mine. I’m the oldest daughter in my family but if I could have had a big sister I would have loved to have you as mine! ☺️
So thankful for your videos. I loved the part where you referred to yourself as big sister. I am the big sister and sometimes it would be nice to have a big sister. I do have lovely, Godly friends to talk to so I'm thankful for that ❤️
The season I've been in for a couple of years now has been one of the most difficult, embarrassing, heartbreaking and gut-wrenching seasons in my entire life. Learning to set healthy boundaries and let go has been very hard, but by the grace of God, there go I. 🙌
Hello dear fellow traveler… oh that sentence brings peace and comfort to a weary soul sister in Yeshua. Thank you for being so genuine. You can see that you truly care for people that shows on your face as you do your videos. Oh Lea, tears come to my eyes when you point toward the path and you said let go of the stuff that isn’t working and telling God I am wrong and praying for more wisdom and rising from the ashes in humility- He does have us and He is building us in His creations. Thank you for reminding me.
Soothing, calming voice of wisdom. Thank you Lea. I'm carrying so much right now, life feels like is falling apart, you are a ray of light in the darkness. Ax
This is beautiful timing. I am in a transitional period, the time of burnout recovery and rest is over, yet I am not at the next step in life. I've been feeling recently, the gentle nudge of the Spirit to let things go. I need to change things, quit things, to become the person I need to be for what's next.

This video brought me to tears. I don't even know why. I think it's because I really felt each and every single word you spoke. It touched my heart. Thank you 🙏
I praise God for that. I hope it was a warm hug for you.
I was teaching our daughters about how God doesn't want us to dress in a way that encourages visual adultery. Our 15 yr old (who happens to look like a fashion model) was perplexed with the cultural norms and said,"What's the point of even trying to look pretty if you really want to obey God." I pointed her to your channel. It IS possible. Thank you for shining a beautiful Light. God bless.
Why can't people, especially Christian moms and dads, simply teach their daughters that they're pretty even without "trying to be" pretty? People focused on physical appearance are focused on this world. Would this channel be less "worth watching" if the presenter is "plain" as determined by a society that worships looking like a supermodel? Be careful what you teach girls and young women about outer beauty, when God does not look at that when He sees his creation.
I remember when I hit my bottom and prayed to God that I needed him, I can’t live my life like this anymore . To show me the way I needed to live my life and he did. I’m so thankful for that❤
Spot on about pride being the issue when we have to acknowledge maybe I need to turn around or go a different way. It can be really hard to work through.
"listen to your big sister, listen to aunty lea.." - the words i needed hehe loved all of this, thank you! ✨
You're doing great sweet girl. Keep seeking the Father.
Watching this in the hospital after having an appendicitis. This is just the inspirational pick me up I needed!
May your healing be swift and complete ❤
Oh goodness, I hope you feel better soon!
Such a precious person you are🥰
As are you ❤

Even at 60, Auntie Lea, I’m still looking for God to lead me in the right direction. 😊 It is going to be okay.
It sure will. He will never leave us.
Thank you “Auntie Lea” for being here during a time of uncertainty and lamenting my husband and I are going through. Your videos help me keep going each day.
You are so welcome sweetheart. It's okay to feel those hard feelings, just know they don't own or define you.
I am complete agreement with you. I was wrong about my career choice in the past. It took a huge health crash in my late 20s and I had to make the choice to either live or die. If I would have continued on the same path I would have died. I gave up a LOT and my life has never been better!!
In a time where I was struggling with this exact obstacle in my life, you put this video out. Timing and God’s power couldn’t be better.
Praise God sister ❤
Good morning Lea, I am older than you but, you still are my big sister. Yah bless you abundantly sis.
Everything you say makes sense to me. I have had a spiritual awakening recently, it was amazing. I know whats holding me back. Tonight i will pray for gods help, hes helped me in the past, i know for sure. Then i go back to my past ways and end up in pain. Its time for change. Thankyou for saying 'its alright'. Sending kind wishes ❤xx
I was the little sister you spoke to. Praise the Lord! Thank you!
Precious girl, I praise God for that. May He guide your steps into all the fullness He has for you. Love, your big sis
Your story really made me think of Psalm 51 and I think it's so beautiful so see a fellow christian woman share such vulnerable thoughts in order to inspire others :) Please keep in mind that your hard work here is appreciated ❤️
The stack of books on your side table makes my heart happy! 📚
I've needed God more and more. In the big things and the small. March 17th was my granddaughters birthday....July 10th will be her death anniversary. It's going to feel so heavy. Last spring and summer was absolutely horrible. It was difficult to hold on to faith. Yet we held on...A peace beyond our understanding. Our granddaughter was Journee Grace....And this past year has been a Journey of Grace because we couldn't have made it otherwise ❤ God bless wonderful spring ahead of us. I love this life, but I can't wait till I'm home with the father. We will continue the Journee ❤
Thank u for your channel! The LORD had me step away from Facebook and Instagram. I am now no longer seeking the approval of others, but the approval of MY CREATOR! Something that I thought would be so hard to step away from turned out to be so freeing! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Be free and whole my sweet sister.
I needed to hear this. Thank you so much! This left me in tears, I went down the wrong path recently and made my way back. I felt like I was losing the freedom I built for myself but really God was bringing me back to freedom in Him because what I was doing was not for me. Thank you again!
True freedom ends in peace.
We have to give it up at the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ so that He can fill us with His will alone. Thank you Lea. May the Lord keep and bless your little family. 🌷
I really needed to hear this - thank you 🙏❤🕊️
This video came at the perfect time.
I am in a very difficult season full of lots of change/transition, and it has been very overwhelming.
So grateful that God is using you and your channel to speak encouragement and hope to my soul. Thank you so much. ❤️ Blessings 🕊
I'm so glad the video encouraged you.
When I say this is exactly what I needed to here at the just the right time....THANK YOU ...PRAISE JAH!!
Your have been anointed by our Savior to speak and encourage. What a beautiful spiritual gift! When you posted scripture on Isaiah, I heard the Lord speaking to me. I left work on 06/27/due to anxiety and stress. I kept taking on more and more, my health started to fail. I have another month to go but I am going to turn around on the path and listen for Jesus and begin a different life style. My our Lords blessing multiple on you! Thank you for helping your sisters in this spiritual warfare. Our world has fallen, but we know who’s ultimately in charge! ❤️
I really pray this msg reaches more ears who need to hear it so many people are caught in traps and don’t know what to do but I believe this God given wisdom in this video will help deliver many from the snare and deliver them from sinking sand and set their feet upon the rock ‘ from the valley to the mountain Top 🙏🏻🕊️
As a mom of 5 young girls, I thank God for women like you who can bring wisdom and encouragement into other young women’s lives. Sometimes they need to hear these words from someone other than mom 😉 You are a blessing ❤
I am so honored.
My morning rituals are to step outside on the deck to breathe in fresh air, check the birdfeeders, start my morning tea, and meditate. I also keep an affirmation and gratitude journal each day. It's really helped me to accept myself, give myself and others grace, and have empathy for others who might need a lift. You have been a different kind of fresh air to breathe. Thank you! Bless you!
Light pink lipstick so pretty...with your eyes....good words to young women...enjoyed your walk in the woods...your cozy home. Blessings. ❤
Thank you so much, auntie Lee
@@latieshamcelroy6968 you are so welcome beautiful 😊🌺
He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert!
Won't He do it ❤❤❤ amen
You are truly blessed to live where you can wander around in beautiful place and peaceful surroundings to explore and listen to the inner voice of God guiding you towards your true path in life .i wish you well and thank you so much for sharing your journey this far ..
I so needed to hear that today. Thank you, Lea, for being my online auntXD
Since I found your channel YEARS ago, I've viewed you as my big sister in the faith. I still do, and I treasure your wise counsel and connectedness to the Lord. Time after time, you encourage, and equip me to go back to the Word and to cling to the Lord❤❤❤ thank you!
Due to ill health my world is getting smaller and smaller. Even the church is no longer a regular part of my life. As i look to a future where everyone i know moves forward, which is right and good that they do, i see them disappear into the distance. But God is with me as my old life fades away and a new one begins, alone perhaps but not lonely.
Exactly! You can always take a new direction even if it means effort. The thing is to pray for wisdom to know when and where. I think God will guide us as to the how. So appreciate you! ❤
Thank you for your words today. I am at a crossroad, needing to make a decision regarding a work position. I have suffered with adrenal issues, anxiety, and hormones. Your message has blessed me today... like it was just two friends chatting! Thank you xx
You bring tears of joy in my eyes ♥️✝️🙏🏻
May lord Jesus keep you and your beautiful family blessed forever ✝️
I just wanted to say.. please keep doing what you are doing and being a place of calm, of testimony, of gentleness and truth. It is clear to see that you are a light driven by His purpose and calling. Thank you so much for your calming reminders of His presence and His calling for us women in every video.
Praise the Lord. Thank you for your encouragement
I'm sitting on the front porch enjoying the breeze, taking in Scripture & being grateful the heat has lessened. I'm going from one story to the next they are so encouraging. Today I noted you sometimes mention your regrets when modeling. Only today I thought you are still modeling in this season it's a model of living well & trusting in our Lord. Amen 🙏 ❤
I showed this video to my daughter and I could tell she was very moved by your words. Thank you. She is contemplating decisions for her future that would not be good for her. As a parent it’s painful and scary to watch. Thank you for this. 🌷
This message has really, really, spoke to my spirit. May the God of Abraham bless you for this my sister in Christ! Thank you, thank you and thank you!!!!!!
I didn’t want it to end so soon.
I didn’t want it to either 😔
It felt like I just spent an afternoon with a good friend Lea. This is probably the most personable video I’ve watched you do as of recent. Just lovely. Some of the things you said, I struggled not to cry. God has been so good to me and I’m so grateful He always finds me right where I’m at.
Thank you for the video and kind words Lea! ❤
Thank you so much for being real and vulnerable. It speaks to your strong faith and caring heart ♥
I have followed a path that was never meant for me just because I was so afraid of admitting it. It took away the best years of myself - though I still have many left! - and a lot of happiness. Life's funny. Today was the day I definitely realised that I have to let go and pursue other things - I may like to do some content creating - and your video comes along. It's so true, it is never too late and it's never too difficult, though it is indeed so scary.
You can. Don't let that voice whisper lies to you. Sending a big warm hug.
Spending a piece of my day with you brings peace. Your message today was much needed! Thank you for sharing the Lord's wisdom with us.
I searched to find this video to watch again and save. It gave me so much encouragement the first time and had again this time. Thank you Lea for being such a faithful servant. ❤
I am so grateful for you. Thank you for being a friend I can listen to and enjoy being with. Your video today was spot on to this Season of my life... Yesterday was traumatic for me and my boys. I realized so many truths will never be changed unless I'm brave.
Warm and wise words from "Auntie Lea" in this period of struggle... Directly to me. Just in time!... ❤
Thank you for sharing.. I so love your videos... Something I always look forward to..
This message is so timely. It reinforces that I need to pursue God's purpose and let go of the rest. In the last few days I was listening to a bible meditation and the meditation talked about how we are in a FOMO culture .... we pursue everything for fear of missing out ...when we need to be in JOMO ... joy of missing out ... where we are focused on what is important with Joy and we are letting go of the rest. Blessings to you.
Hello Lea. I was in search of finding information on herb gardens...to my unexpected surprise I was lead to your most beautiful channel. There lies a discovery of hope and wisdom that I could not ever imagine finding. Everything about what you are conveying to the listener is everything I need to hear. We all need to hear this. In the very struggles I am currently facing, this channel has come to me at a most needed time. And I know that it is the Holy Spirit that has guided me here. You are a beautiful soul. God must have a great love for you.
I wish I could thank you in person! You have a very special gift that only God himself can give. God bless you in your work.🌿🌷🌿
When everything we were programmed for doesn’t make sense we feel like we wander in confusion for decades which leaves us feeling fatigued and lost .
With patience comes wisdom . And sometimes you just have to let go and let god .
And that’s the time the light shines in the darkness.
You touch the part of me that I so long for. I will be 67 in April and ice is to slow down and listen to God.
I have lost family and friends because I don’t do the things they do. Educational tv shows on tv but none of the other stuff that goes on. We are in the last days
I wish I could get the kits you offered and the journal but I do with what I have and learn from God and the land. God loves you and so do I!!!!!
Thank you so much. The King is surely coming.
When you said "deep down they don't want you happy and free" ❤ oh yes, totally agree! How many times we take a certain path just because "is the easiest way" but not really what we want... or because "we've been told so" but we're not sold... Learning how to give up is necessary to grow and become a better version of ourselves ❤
Oh Lea, this was so beautiful and your wisdom is a light to us all. Thank you for being a sister in Christ.
Members of the forever family! Thank you, Jesus🙏🏼
❤Great advice and Scripturally- based. I appreciate your willingness to share your walk with the Lord.❤️
Thank you for sharing this sound biblical wisdom 💖
Dear Lea, i so appreciate your videos, your wisdom, your sharing from your experience and heart. Your videos are a blessing!! I too am on my journey of faith, you continue to inspire me by living the truth. He is " The Way, The Truth, and The Life". Praise be to God.
May He richly bless you for your faithfulness. ❤😊
Thank you for a beautiful message. 🙏
Yes! Yes! Yes! Giving up. Surrender. Seems to be the running theme.
I am 63 and have had to say, I was wrong many many times. In my twenties/early thirties I did what society was making me feel like I should do. My husband only wanted me to be happy and do want I felt like I needed to. I finally came home from work one day and told him I can't do it. I have to choose where I want my energy to go and I choose staying home, managing it, raising our children, making healthy meals, gardening, and so on. He told me to do it, He told me whatever makes my soul feel less stress, less anxiety and to allow joy in. That is what I have done since and we are still together, loving life and letting joy in. You are so right with your message. Peace, Love and Joy to you. May anyone needed to make a decision find the strength to do so.
Amen
You are so sweet and inspiring! I really appreciate your message in this video. How profound! It resonated with me so much! I lived the crazy life of trying to keep up in a mans world. I did end up sick with thyroid problems. I have been trying to “let go” of expectations and that lifestyle. I find it scary but everyday gather up a little more wisdom! Thank you again for sharing your journey and the season of life you are in now. So precious to watch and share with you! God bless you! I do feel like you are my friend! Very grateful! Linda
Lea I needed to hear this! I’m going through some struggles right now and needing to make some changes. I’m trying to lean on God and know his plans are greater than mine. I’m the oldest daughter in my family but if I could have had a big sister I would have loved to have you as mine! ☺️
❤Thanks so much for this awesome video! You spoke right to me! Sending love & prayers dear sister Lea🥰🙏🏻❤️❌⭕️🕊
Thank you so much Lea. I thank our Lord for this channel. It’s a blessing. 🙏🏼
Amen amen amen! Truth right here!
Oh those sweet dogs! What a blessing our pets are! Thanks for another lovely video❤
This is exactly where I am today. So thankful you made this video. I feel I was led to it.
So thankful for your videos. I loved the part where you referred to yourself as big sister. I am the big sister and sometimes it would be nice to have a big sister. I do have lovely, Godly friends to talk to so I'm thankful for that ❤️
Thank you Lea truly wisdom from above 💙💙💙
The season I've been in for a couple of years now has been one of the most difficult, embarrassing, heartbreaking and gut-wrenching seasons in my entire life. Learning to set healthy boundaries and let go has been very hard, but by the grace of God, there go I. 🙌
I just can say how Great Is Our God that gives us the opportunity to start fresh every day!!🙌🏽🥰
Every single one of your videos hits home! The Holy Spirit is working through your platform sis
This message from you arrived in His perfect timing. The light from your wisdom is renewing.
Thank you for your wholesome, inspiring content!!!!! Literally the only videos I find myself actually smiling at when I watch them ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this very inspiring video! And thank you for basing it on God's Word.
Hello dear fellow traveler… oh that sentence brings peace and comfort to a weary soul sister in Yeshua. Thank you for being so genuine. You can see that you truly care for people that shows on your face as you do your videos.
Oh Lea, tears come to my eyes when you point toward the path and you said let go of the stuff that isn’t working and telling God I am wrong and praying for more wisdom and rising from the ashes in humility- He does have us and He is building us in His creations. Thank you for reminding me.
I do believe many of us are feeling that weariness. Hang in there. The King is surely coming.
I Love your videos and look forward to seeing them. I wish you were on here everyday. You have such a beautiful spirit and you truly lift mine.
Thank you so much 💓
Soothing, calming voice of wisdom. Thank you Lea. I'm carrying so much right now, life feels like is falling apart, you are a ray of light in the darkness. Ax
This is beautiful timing. I am in a transitional period, the time of burnout recovery and rest is over, yet I am not at the next step in life. I've been feeling recently, the gentle nudge of the Spirit to let things go. I need to change things, quit things, to become the person I need to be for what's next.
In love with those dogs!!
Thank you kindly for your heartfelt honesty and surrender my friend.
God Bless you and yours.
Krystal
