Praise the Lord for all His goodness to us! He tells us to encourage one another, all the more as you see The Day approaching ..... your story today is a great example of how if you give He gives back a greater measure - pressed down and running over 😊. I too find that keeping simple homely routines going brings stability, pleasure, satisfaction and order when life can be so crazy - God is a God of order - He brings order out of chaos and we are created to function and thrive so much better in that environment 😊. Dinner for us tonight is leftover quiche with homemade coleslaw, baked potato, and salad. God bless Crystal! Xx
Thank you Des.. you're always so encouraging and I love you for that 💞 I love your reminder that God is a God of order.. so true!! Your dinner sounds delicious. Have a wonderful blessed week my friend 😊
Crystal, your videos come from your love for God within your heart. When I watch your videos, I have a cup of coffee and I sit with my sister in Christ. You are an inspiration and a beautiful witness for Christ. We all may be miles apart but God connects us with His love. It's such a blessing to know that you are there to bring inspiration and truth of the love of God. Have a blessed week and know that I hold you and everyone in the comments in prayer. Blessings
Amen Crystal! This is why I love this channel. Your goal is to truly do what the Father is calling you to do and not like so many other channels that claim to want to encourage women when they really want to give you an infomercial from their sponsors. ❤
Good morning my dear friend. Your content has always spoken to my heart. It has been motivating, inspirational and helpful in ways I would need a lifetime to convey to you. You have been a sister in Christ to me, Crystal. That is not something that you can say to just anyone. You are an encouragement to women, and I always look forward to your videos and feel my soul uplifted after each one. Have a blessed week my friend.
Hello Crystal!..You are so encouraging and I am so thankful to God I found your channel! It is all on how we view things in life. You are so right...enjoy the simple things and be thankful for all the good and the blessings we have. You are bringing back something very important to ladies and that is the importance and significance of being a Mom and a wife. These days it seems that is not the focus, but rather moving up in the work world, trying to be everything and it puts a great strain on women today. I remember my grandmother and how she so enjoyed being a homemaker and providing for her family. She was happy and fulfilled. I often wish we could go back to those days. Girls need to feel valued and important if they choose to be a stay at home Mom and provide security and a place of comfort and love. These days our world is so busy and hectic, I think the family suffers in these modern times. Yes, peace is vital. I avoid the news as much as possible because I find it brings me down and I have no control over what is happening...only over myself . God is in control. Thank you Crystal for bringing us these videos!! Do you have a certain day when you upload your videos? Have a beautiful day!💝💖🙏🙏 Geri
I was so glad to see you looking more encouraged today! I’ve had you in my heart and prayers all week. The sausage and peppers looked delicious! We’re having roast chicken thighs, broccoli and baked sweet potatoes. This is a frequent meal at my house. I hope you have a wonderful weekend Crystal!
Thank you Adrienne 💞 Thank you for the prayers... I'm doing SO much better.. praise the Lord! Your dinner sounds delicious.. I love simple meals like that. I hope you have a wonderful weekend too my dear sweet friend 😊
Crystal, you are blessing to us! I enjoy your channel. I love how the Lord blesses us with Christian friends from afar in our lives! I live in Colorado, and we are having our first major snowstorm. The snow is over two feet at our place. We're having lentil soup with hamhock and vegetables for dinner tonight. Love and blessings sent your way❤
Thank you Phyllis 💞 I appreciate you my friend 😊 Wow!!!! on the snow!!! That's crazy.. we're not there yet.. Your dinner sounds delicious and perfect for a snowy night. Have a wonderful week 💞
Thank you, Crystal for another video of encouragement. The Pacific Northwest is beautiful. Here in TN we are at peak week for the fall colors. We could use some of your rain. When I see your video pop up , you are the first I watch. Thanks for all your hard work.
Crystal, you have inspired me to read some great books. Although I am unable to just be a homemaker, you give me such great ideas. Tonight we are having sourdough pizza. 😋 Homemade crust and homemade sauce.
That is great to hear!! And you know... my thoughts are... if you have a home, your a homemaker 💞 Everyone is in a different place in life and homemaking is for all of us. YUM!! on your dinner.. thank you for sharing and have a wonderful weekend 😊
Thank you so much for your honesty (esp in last week's video which i just watched). This is a beautiful community-- it's so good to encourage one another in the Lord and you're spearheading it. I will be keeping you and your situation in prayer; when the time is right you can share the specifics as i'm sure that would encourage us all the more. But God knows, He is The Head of every thing! God bless you.
That sounds delicious Patty... I was thinking the other day I want to make some chowder but wasn't sure what kind.. now I know 😄Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend 😊
OK girly you super inspired me to grate my own cheese but I'm hand grating and let's just say my arm and wrist are getting a huge workout lol. What grater is that please? You are super encouraging thanks for the wonderful message.💛
Hello Joy!! 💞 That is a mixer with the attachment for grating. It is a Bosch Mixer. I purchased that over 20 years ago and it's still going strong. I highly recommend them!! I hope you're doing well my friend 😊
@@HomemakingontheHomestead wow that's amazing thanks Chrissy ! I'll definitely look into them and we are well thanks to God may God keep blessing you and your family 😄
God Bless you. I just love your sound thoughts on life. You lift us up a true gift from God. Hugs and be well this week.
Thank you Lisa for your kind and encouraging words to me. Much appreciated 💞😊
Well said Lisa, I agree with you 100%.
Friday vlogs are so comforting and encouraging.
May everyone have a beautiful weekend and a great week ahead.
