Just think of all the memories that you are making. As you and your family grow they will think of all those memories and it will be a warm and wonderful feeling. So enjoy the time and things you do. I am 70+ and even my grandchildren have grown but we can remember all those moments of joy.
Yes!! I’m holding on as tight as I can, while still letting them grow. It’s such a hard thing. But you’re right. I can’t hold them forever. But I can hold on to the memories. Thanks so much! 🤍
I've sensed the Lord has been encouraging me to "slow down" for the past six months. This video gave me a little glimmer of hope and understanding. Thank you 😊
Yes! Slowing down has been such a great blessing. I love this slow simple life. I’m so glad it encouraged you as you are on a journey of slowing down as well. Have a great slow week 🤗🤍
Thank you so very much for a beautiful, thought provoking and inspiring video! When you spoke of when you make breakfast for your family, you are in fact making it for Jesus, I thought about when I decided to devote my work day to the Lord. When I told myself ' i am working for the Lord', not necessarily for my boss". I too felt so much HOY!
Nothing like being exactly where God designed us to be. I have loved and grown as a keeper of the home. Bravo for highlighting that even though it’s hard work, it is satisfying and rewarding. I wouldn’t change it for anything. Thanks again! -Jane
It is so rewarding! I’ve told my husband that my favorite way to go to sleep each day is completely exhausted from doing all the things that are required to keep our home running. Easy? Nope. But so satisfying. Thanks so much for watching! Have a great week! 🤍
Aliya, Thank you so much for the reminder this morning of doing all as "unto the Lord". If I'm honest, I get so busy and focused with the tasks that need to be accomplished, that I forget that most important thing! Serve him in all I do and just slow down! Other than UA-cam, I have no social media influence for the very reason you mentioned. I am always blessed and encouraged with your vlog and I truly appreciate your sweet heart and mission to be an encouragement. Lord bless you, and I thank you. Reply
I know this is from a few weeks ago but I just found your channel and really enjoy watching when I get the time for myself. I’m a house wife and a mom to 3 little children. I’m beginning to get more spiritual as well. Sometimes I rush through my house chores since sometimes I can’t get it all done since I have younger children that need me. I get kinda upset when I can’t finish something but this video makes me want to do better. Live more in the moment of what I’m doing…
Yess!! Me too! I have to constantly remind myself to slow down and enjoy the journey. And that’s the journey of each day too. I’m glad my video found you and left you feeling inspired and encouraged. Have a great week!! Thanks so much for watching and sharing 🤍
Making breakfast for Jesus! This is a truth many will never get...how blessed you are. "depart from me, i never knew you," is for those that will never understand nor comprehend the truth of doing ALL things as unto the Lord. Thank you soooo much for your willingness to share, so that people like me can be reminded of such a life changing truth! ❤
I really appreciate your videos but this one especially. I have, as many people do, a very stressful job. I have wanted to enjoy my housework but end up rushing through it because my job leaves me little time to get it done. That said, your video made me realize I can slow down or at least choose to enjoy my time I have when doing my housework. Thank you for the reminder that I can choose to look things in a more positive way! Your videos are a blessing 😊
@susanbon5014 We are in the same boat! I feel exactly the same way. Isn't it wonderful to be reminded in these busy, stressful years. I know it won't last forever, but I truly want to enjoy every season of life. It all goes by so quickly. I can't wait until I retire to enjoy a "slow- life", because in this life we have no retirement guarantee.
Yes! I’m glad that the video inspired and encouraged you! It’s so easy to get mentally stuck in the rat race of life. But when we intentionally slow down our mind it is so helpful for creating some peace. I pray that you continue to experience increased peace and that work gets less stressful 🤍
What a lovely way to start my day. I don’t remember Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings as a poet, I remember her for The Yearling. I think today more than ever the work of a housewife and mother is valued and we can all benefit from intentional living and slowing down. Enjoyed the video.
The way I understood it, her poems were compiled and published into a book after her death. So you’re right. She is most well known for her books. Thank you so much for watching! Love hearing from you!! 🤍🌱🪿
Yess!! I’m so grateful to have ladies who have gone before me and can encourage and help me as I walk this season of life out. I will absolutely share the yarrow tea! It smells amazing!! So excited to see how it tastes. Thanks for watching! Have a great week!
What a beautiful way to wake up this morning. Your sweet voice, stories, and guidance you give are a joy to start my day. Cooking as if for Jesus makes cooking such a delight. I love seeing your sweet slow life. I grew up in the city, moved to the country and raised my 2 boys and now Im back in the city. The slower country life is my favorite life. Thanks for sharing.
I actually just made a video and blog post with the bread recipe. opendoorsopenhearts.com/2024/08/13/how-to-make-soft-sourdough-sandwich-bread-3-helpful-tips/ ua-cam.com/video/CroaZcERzkw/v-deo.htmlsi=EP7G-M3kSngBIzGX

It’s a reminder I have to tell myself regularly. But worth it to remember. Thanks for watching! Have a great week!

The biggest nightmare would be to hear those words “depart from me”. Thanks for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed it! 🤍🌱
