1 Peter 4:8 says, "Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins." As homemakers, we must work with a servant heart, leaving behind selfishness, and loving above all else. I am so excited this video is live! The devil has been working VERY hard at preventing me from being able to post to UA-cam. First, my camera stopped working out of nowhere, when I recorded on my phone it wouldn't upload to the computer, once I uploaded it to the computer I ran out of storage and it wouldn't export, once I had the video edited and completed my voiceover, deleted pretty much everything from my computer, ALL footage from iMovie got deleted. Sadly, I lost all of my video footage that I was saving, and the entire video I already edited and was ready to post. I decided to film a new video, which wouldn't upload to my computer, so I reuploaded the footage for this video. Once I got my video finished AGAIN, I began to upload it to UA-cam, and my computer decided to update mid-upload, while my family was out of the house. It has been a JOURNEY my friends, but with many tears and prayers, I persevered. I pray this video can speak to you, and brings you closer to Christ.
I am still so thankful reaching 1,000 subscribers! I have not forgotten about my giveaway....even though I am at almost 9,000 subscribers. I am currently working on my giveaway gift! So sorry it has taken so long. I greatly appreciate all of your love and support.

Please keep these videos coming. They're so very important
I'm so excited that I found this channel!!
Servanthood is such a beautiful practice...much needed video in our current culture.
Again another beautiful,inspiring video ..thank you for making them ! As a child ,I used to watch Little House on the Prairie-series on TV...loved it so now ,at 62, I still remember !
Thanks and blessings for you and the family ❤️🙏🕊🙏❤️
We actually haven't watched the show yet, I'm hoping to get through all the books. I'm excited for it though, I remember watching as a kid! 🥰
I love the show. I am 34 and have watched it several times. So many life lessons learned from the show.
You have me in tears. This has been a pretty big struggle/battle of mine. Selfishness rooted in pride that really makes the house work lag among other things. I pray that Jesus is my main focus and that I serve Him by serving my family with gratefulness. Thank you so much for this encouragement and the passages you read went straight to my heart. It’s so amazing how the Lord can cut us to the heart even with verses we have read so many times before. 😢❤❤❤
Amen to all of it! 🙌
You’ve helped me so much by reminding me when I’m being selfish and to be the Godly woman he wants me be. Thank you! ❤
Yes as homemakers we need to be very selfless. Oh but it beings so much joy!! God's ways are best!! When we humbly put ourselves last God has a way of bringing us first when we least expect it. As women we are the "thermostat" of our home. Our attitude can bring peace and joy to our family or can cause stress and sadness. Let's serve with joy and thankfulness! Thank you for another beautiful video!
I LOVE that! We are the thermostat! I have not heard that before. I also love your perspective on bringing so much joy! It is very true, and definitely didn't mention that!
We need Him 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I care for others (my job in home care & 4+ decades in nursing home). Retirement is Gods plan. Thank you for the scriptures.
Wow, this really hit me. I work FT outside the home. I’m up at 4:30 am and when I walk in the door at 4-4:30 pm, I feel resentful and lazy that the house is messy and I have to review homework and start dinner etc.
The mess and lack of schedule triggers my anxiety significantly, so the best thing I can do is just do it. Pray about the resentful feelings and do what needs to be done🙏🏻❤️
No wonder you feel anxious. You're already working a 12 hour day. Coming home and feeling exhausted is paying attention to your body. This woman is doing her 12 hour day at home organising the home. You're working all day already. We are not meant to work 24 hours a day. Heaping more coals on your head is unhelpful. A good way forward would be to sit down with the whole family, see if there is a way to get a rota going, that would be unselfish - everyone doing what they can do in difficult circumstances. Or see if you can reduce outgoings to pay for a cleaner a few hours a week, or reduce work hours. Or, even, God forbid, the Christian community around you might help out, someone might step in and offer to do your laundry or hoovering or bathrooms... Isn't that what the body of Christ is?
Sister I have felt the same way. Every person has different circumstances. God doesn't mean to over tire yourself to where you feel no joy or start to resent people around you. In life there will always be certain chapters of life where one will be putting more effort in than everyone else around them. It's normal and that is just life but to do it in every chapter in life is not what being a servant means. When women go out into the workplace it takes away from her home and children. The way God created us we strive when we are teachers to our children and when we take care of our home. When a woman starts to prioritize where the man should be prioritizing then too much is in your hands to even control or take care of leaving your life a mess. I was a single mom for 13 years and I know the struggle of having to do EVERYTHING. It is exhausting and to try and find joy while doing laundry with 3 hours of sleep after working all day at a job and dinner on the stove while the child is screaming for you in the background is impossible for a woman to be healthy or happy. I know your pain but I always say prayer is the most powerful and God will help. Continuous prayer and not giving up on God for his help is the key and answer.
I agree that our heart & attitude are so important. P.S. The download worked for the planner, it's really nice .Thank you!
Your videos are so lovely!
Thank you for noting that disability can affect our housekeeping and home making and that's okay. I like your talk about reflection, asking ourselves what we need to get done and why we are not getting it done. This is something I started asking myself several years ago, and have kept a housekeeping notebook as I make these discoveries.
I have cats. And some of the most useful changes I've made to help myself get through the day is a long handled dustpan so I don't have to bend over to sweep up when I sweep floors.
And I got three step stools from the dollar store. They are lined up each in front of the other and I put the cats litter box on them. The box sits on two of them. The third is for the cats to step up on to get in. Makes it much easier for me to reach to clean it.
Also, feeding the cats their canned food treat on the bed instead of the floor. Again, easier to reach. Thet have a sheet I toss over the bed during the day to keep my own bedding clean.
Other things I've learned to do:
Break down 'easy' tasks into smaller steps. They don't have to all be done at once. Instead of just vacuuming the floor: Check the vacuum bag and change if needed. And any other maintenance on the vacuum. Everything off the floor. Vacuum. Same thing anybody else does. But seeing it as three steps that don't necessarily have to all be done at once makes it doable.
"Put away" might not be where it used to be. Especially for things that are used often. Some things are kept in sight and in easy reach.
Just thought I'd share in case it's helpful to anybody else. ☺
Your video so wholesome and your little one playing with the doll house was precious reminded me of my daughter when she was little. Little House on the prairie books so good read the series to my daughter she still talks about it she's 21 now. God Bless you and your beautiful family
Ahh that is so special! I hope my kids remember me reading them. What a positive impact you have left. ❤️ God bless you and your family as well!
Beautiful scripture message. ❤
Can’t tell you how much I appreciate your videos, beyond helpful and encouraging as a Christian and stay at home mom!
Thanks for this 🙏🏻 so encouraging and such a good reminder, wish you a blessed day 🙏🏻
I appreciate you so much Kelsey. At 54 years old, I am learning so much from you also. Thank you for being real and genuine-- there are others on here that claim to be Christians, but I can see through them. You are different and I trust you 💯
This is one of the sweetest comments. I try to be very real. I could learn a lot from you too!
Im 72 and rasied my family. I'm still learning as Christian grandma. I felt it's a labor of love when I can do things for girls and their families.
I just lvoe seeing how you are working with 3 kids... i made it to 3:44 and just noticed how observational you are... watching and helping make sure the dough is done correctly.... holding the little one... and even assisting the third that came uo tk you woth the wolf plushie.... and even played some with that child... in a matter of seconds you siccessfully given all of your children that attention and love that you should and it was quite beautoful to see
I wish I was a sit on the floor mom like this. I read the books but I can't stand playing make believe with my kids. Their dad is so much better at it. I wish I could change the way my brain works. I do all the other things like cooking from scratch and homeschooling and all that. But sometimes I feel bad I don't play with them much!
I play with my kids 15 minutes each of the game they want (not a brag)...it is my least favorite time of the day. I honestly am not the mom who loves to play with her children like that, but I have found it helps a ton with listening and behavior. I set a timer and once it goes off the kids know I'm done and that they have to play on their own. It also eliminates them constantly asking me to play. It is not thrilling games, but I try to put 100% of myself into it. It took me a long time to do this. I hear ya! Even if you go for 5 minutes. Books are also so important, so any time like what you're doing is great!
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse oh wow! Great advice thank you !
I wasn't sure I'd like this but I did. I appreciate the insights.
I wonder if or how this might apply to something known as "burnout". I've known some people--men and women alike--who have given so much of themselves at various times they become very weary and worn out. Even Jesus went alone to pray after long demanding days of ministering in healing, deliverance, teaching and preaching the Word of God, and feeding the multitudes.
Certainly pride and selfishness have no place in the life of a believer. But we need to find a balance, I think. We have to learn to take care of ourselves, too, because if we don't then we won't be in a position to care for other people in our lives.
That was one thought. Here's the other big takeaway I got tonight and thank you so much for bringing this home for me.
We're not going about the business of our day simply to perform a duty, a chore or a function. This world isn't our eternal home and nothing we do here is permanent. Dishes will need to be washed again tomorrow. The lawn we mowed will need to be mowed again in due time.
But that little child who is looking to us to teach him or her how to learn to do something they see us doing, that older parent who is lonely now because we're doing everything and they're sitting around in painful bodies not able to do anything... they need our kindness, our attention, our time, encouragement and a kind word.
If we forget this--the whole thing goes sideways, we've lost the point. Selfishness and pride are formidable adversaries and hard enough to fight when we struggle in our own flesh, and we never win that battle then.
The thought tonight about the hearts that are around me who are so vulnerable and need so much more from me than a clean plate, that cut me to the quick and punctured a hole in my own pride, hard heartedness and selfishness, as it should.
That little child who sometimes seems like a nuisance will grow up soon enough, and soon enough that older parent who seems so demanding now will go home to glory.
Do we really want to waste this little measure of time God has given us in this season?
Loved this ❤️
UA-cam recommended this video to me, which is crazy because I've been hearing this message so much lately about having a servants heart. Its probably something God wants me to work on right now.
This really spoke to me, and I will probably go back and listen a few more times 😊.
Thanks for making this great video. ❤
💗
Praying for you! Seriously! We need your beautiful heart and inspiring actions. I’m 62 and a grandmother…. Would love to hear more of how you became so rooted in Faith, and especially in Holy Scripture. 🙏🙏
Thank you! So encouraging and convicting!
I really needed to hear this today, thank you ❤
Omg yes I've been looking for more little house on the prairie books I finally watched the show this year and I have two books I read to my kids I'll have to check and see if there's more 😮❤🎉
Yes! I got my at ThriftBooks...but I'm sure they are scattered among all used book stores. I also bought the Little House collection on Amazon for my daughter for Christmas. I believe it has 5 of the stories?...we have them all, but they are starting to tear 🙈
Thank you.. I also like the different breads! Have a nice day :)
Thank you
I love your encouraging videos, thank you!
Thank you so much. I really love your content. 💙
Thank you 💕
You have no idea how much your videos have helped me through after having another baby and getting back into my home duties. The scriptures really help ❤
Loved this thanks 💖
Thank you for the beautiful message if you prep for dinner during lunch prep closing shift is a bit easier
Yes! I need to do it more!
❤
Thank you for sharing. This is exactly the encouragement and conviction I needed to get through the end of the year!
I needed this. The Holy Spirit spoke to me through your words and shone a light on my many faults. Thank you. I’m grateful i just found your channel 🤍
Pray for me cuz in your of doing it all.
I clean in circles. The loads are neverending. My kids seem to be more disobedient. They've become more rude. I can go on.
It's as though it's never enough. Unappreciated. Lonely.
I'm worn
You are not alone. Many days I feel like this. Many days I feel I've lost control of my children and their disrespect. I feel like everything I've done all day didn't accomplish a thing. Homemaking and parenting is a thankless job 95% of the time. It's exhausting, repetitive, and lonely. You are doing great things! Don't give up. Even though it seems endless, even though you are exhausted, you are serving and pleasing the Lord greatly. Take it day by day! You are doing so much more than you know. Feel free to email me at kelsey@westmanacademyhomeschool.com to chat more!
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse have the kids clean up and do chores. Can you make a video of having kids clean up and fold laundry ?
You are speaking to my heart.... thank you so much for your videos!
😂You have my dream mixing bowl that I have always liked since I was 18 years old...several decades ago!!! Glad to see you enjoying using it with so much love.
Thank you, very encouraging. ✝️
This is so incredible. Thank you ❤ I love your attitude and heart for Jesus and serving your family
As the others have said, what a wonderful treasure to find. Thank you for sharing it with us, it gave me a glimpse of what it really must have felt like to be in the situation of the time. So glad too that someone like you has come into ownership of it, who will truly knows its value and will share it and treasure it with the respect it, and the person who wrote it, and the people it speaks of deserve.
Im a new subscriber.Thank you , Kelsey for making this video and bringing biblical sound verses and home making video. I have been searching for this type of content but many of th e videos I come across forget about God’s word and just becomes a home making video.
Hi Kelsey, I love listening to you. I find it so calming.❤
Like the others have said thank you for sharing your treasure with us, what a wonderful find you hsve there. As yoj read it i could feel the emotion of the time, and was given a glimpse of what it really felt like to be actually there. So pleased yhat someone like you now owns this piece of history, and will share it and cherish it in the way it deserves, and eith respect to the writer herself, and all the young ladies that she was writing to.
🙋🏼♀️🇦🇺
New subscriber, I am loving your channel, the topics in your videos and the reading of Scripture throughout them. I'm glad you were suggested to me in my feed 💓
Omg! I recently started watching Farmhouse on Boone, and today I came across your channel for the first time. I didn't know y'all were sisters. I love that. You two ladies are very impressive.
I'm not sisters with her, but I'd love to be! I do love her channel ❤️
Thank you .❤
Those cookies look amazing. Thanks for all the encouraging words. I love taking care of what is needed. My 15 year old had socks in his bed today and always had something in there over the years. He also doesn't make his bed as neatly as he could and rushes through which is frustrating.
I love the idea of doing the good for my neighbor. It is beautiful to think that we would care that deeply for others as Christ has.
Wow, a 15 yr old not making his bed 'as neatly as he could', sounds like perhaps expectations and priorities might need looking at. Your expectations here might begin to be an issue and he might completely live in a pig sty when he leaves home if the expectations are perfectionism rather than 'good enough'. Every part of life cannot be exceptional and we must choose what is both enough in some areas and living without perfectionism. It will give him the constant message that he can never be good enough, never quite make it. He's already good enough in God's eyes, in fact he can't do anything to make God love him more or love him less... Jesus did that for him. This kind of performance based thinking is not helpful for kids. It's great to want to get to know our neighbours deeply in character and person and be there for them in deep ways when you actually know what their needs are. But again there's a fine line between 'doing good' to feel good about it and get brownie points from God for it, or actually it just comes because you know deep down what they really need.
I am definitely not a perfectionist, and my kids know it too. My 15 year old's sheet is sometimes not even up and is shoved down and he just puts his quilt on his bed with loads of wrinkles. It is also a top bunk and not the easiest to make a bed in. I am patient and lenient on him and show him how to do it from time to time. I think basing your response on my ONE tiny sentence and saying your opinion without knowing me as a parent or person, etc, just doesn't come across very well in your response. You made it seems like I don't view my son as good enough or that he won't view himself that way is really wrong. The love I show for my children is deep and they know God and see God work each day. Thank you. Get to know people more personally before you leave comments like this. @@KJ-lb4tj
Thanks I needed this
I just discovered your channel this morning and I am so encouraged by what you’re sharing on here! Just last night I was talking about how I feel like God is calling me to work more with my hands, and to serve my family and those around me and to lean on him day by day, and moment by moment for guidance. I really struggle sometimes because I do deal with chronic illness and pain so adjusting to motherhood and being a full-time homemaker and also trying to manage my own health can be so overwhelming. But I also know that there is sin, and that I can be lazy at times and selfish with my energy. so I really appreciate everything that you said in this video and the way you articulated things. I love that you Are encouraging people to reflect and look at scripture which leads to healthy conviction, but you’re doing it in a way that is encouraging and uplifting. So, thank you for what you were doing here! So happy I found your channel.
Thank you for your kind words! Yes, you definitely have to give yourself grace, especially with a chronic illness. We all can fall into the trap of laziness. You are not alone! You are doing great things! God is our strength, so lean on Him during all the pain. You are a rockstar!
🙏♥️🙏
Love your videos! I’m not a stay at home mom but it applies to me nonetheless:). So encouraging.
Love your let it snow mug! ❄ I started making multiple types of cookies at Christmas time in 2017 to give as gifts to family, friends, and neighbors. I'm hoping I can do that this Sunday. I think you pronounced focaccia correctly, at least that's how I do anyway. I just love your stoneware bowls! Because of you I have been on the hunt on FB marketplace for some. I did find one I loved, but waited too long and someone else snatched it up. But I'm glad I found the style that I like the most so I can look for it again.
I love what you said that we choose how to serve. It's wonderful that we can pick the tasks that we want to get done and accomplished during the day.
My daughter has tons of stuff in her bed too most days!
Same here! I would love to just relax after dinner, but I always thank myself the next morning when I get everything cleaned up and close the kitchen down. I try to at least do the bare minimum every night, but other nights I do some extra cleaning.
My husband bought me the set from Lehmans. He didn't realize how big they were going to be. I use the 10 inch ones or the 12 inch.
www.lehmans.com/product/10-heritage-blue-stripe-stoneware-mixing-bowl/
I actually bought vintage ones, and then he pointed out they could have lead paint, so I took them back. It was a totally bummer! I really love these though! I also find a ton of Marketplace that is snatched up quick. I'm glad I'm not the only one with kid beds full of stuff. 😄 I also will keep in mind, "at least just do the bare minimum." I always feel like it has to be all or nothing, so that's a good reminder to me.
Bless you! Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎁🎄🎁🎄🎁👆
Your channel popped onto my UA-cam feed. I’ve watched a couple of your videos now and have enjoyed your content. I was scrolling through your description box and was pleasant surprised to discover you’re Catholic like me. I don’t see a ton of Catholic mom content creators so I’m
Always happy to discover a new one. ❤️
Yay! I love connecting with other Catholics! I haven't found a ton either.
Another beautiful post. So very convicting❣️. Please tell me where I can find this focaccia bread recipe as the link you posted here did not work. I thank you in advance. God bless and I wish you and yours a blessed Christmas❣️
westmanacademyhomeschool.com/2023/12/15/homemaking-with-a-servant-heart/ See if it works now. I feel like every time I add it to the description box it never works. Merry Christmas to you as well! God bless you!
3/4 cup warm water
2 teaspoons yeast
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon rosemary
2 cups flour
Butter for greasing 7×11 baking dish
Mix yeast, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and water together.
In a medium sized bowl, combine olive oil, sugar, salt, and the yeast mixture.
Add flour, and knead until thoroughly combined.
Your dough does not need to be smooth. It is okay if it is bumpy, and it should be fairly sticky.
After Dough Has Risen
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Rub additional olive oil lightly on top of the risen dough. Sprinkle with additional rosemary and salt.
Use your fingers to create “indents” into the bread, gently pushing the dough down.
Bake dough for 15-18 minutes (17 minutes is what I did).
God bless you and your family.❤
Hi, Kelsey!
I've been MIA, but for good reasons.😄 Organizing, baking, visting, decorating for Christmas... And I have to say that I love the idea of gifting a beautiful box of home baked cookies to your friends in church. It's the start of a beautiful tradition!
It's so precious to see you cooking with your children and teaching them how to bake. It reminds me of how it would be like in the old days, when most women were at home and had their little ones with them all day, instead of in kindergardens. Things were harder, I'm sure, but I'm also sure that people were happier.😊
I pray to God that I can grow a servant's heart, because sometimes I have the "woe is me" mentality or I just have too much and have to get rid of clutter (wich is one of my goals for next year). Like you said, we have to build a community in wich we can lift each other up and help each other with prayer, godly advice, home cleaning advice, children caring advice...
We, christians, have to open our hearts and live a CHRIST centered life and not a ME centered life, right? Do everything to HIS glory!
You said you have difficulties at the end of the day, after dinner, because you are (understandibly) exausted, so I'll pray for you and I'm sure that the other christian women that comment here, will be doing the same.😉
"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people." Ephesians 6:18
To finish, and because I know you ususally make delicious meals and breads, I wanted to leave an ice cream desert (because why wouldn't we eat ice cream in the Winter?😁) that I learned yesterday and tried today. It is DELICIOUS and so easy to make.
Just beat together 1 can (13.4 Oz) of dulce de leche, 1 package of heavy whipping cream (16 Oz), a pinch of salt and a splash of vanilla. Whisk it in the mixer for a few minutes until well blended and put it in a tupperware in the freezer for a few hours, before serving. It is delicious, very creamy and can be done in 5 minutes.
Have a blessed day and a Merry Christmas, friend!❤🙏🎄
So you don't need an ice cream machine, just a mixer? I've never made homemade ice cream. I love this! Thank you so much for sharing, and for praying for me. I will be praying for you too! I also love that verse from Ephesians! I also have "woe is me mentality", so I totally understand. You have been busy, and it seems like you are doing a lot of great things for others! That is very inspiring to me. 😁 I appreciate all your sweet comments and advice! Have a Merry Christmas!
Yes, you just have to mix it with a hand mixer or a kitchenaid et voilá! It's so creamy and we ate the last of it today and it didn't had ice cristals. This one is a keeper and I'm going to make it again soon!🤤
Your kids will love it and the best part is that it is easy to make and you can make it in advance. If you make it, let me know how it went. 😉
Thank you for your prayers and God bless!🥰

So I notice you don’t have a tv? Just can’t imagine not being able to at least get the news. Also what does your husband do for a living? I find this fascinating. You’re sort of like a modern day Amish yet not. I’ve subscribed . You go girl! I have so many questions though.
We have a TV, it is in our basement. We don't use it except for special occasions and sports my husband wants to watch. My kids do watch TV on Tuesdays. Our family personally does not listen or watch the news. Modern day Amish sounds appropriate 😄. Ask any questions you want! 🙃 And my husband just started his first year as a family med doctor.
Here is the blog post link with recipe. For whatever reason it wasn't working before. westmanacademyhomeschool.com/2023/12/15/homemaking-with-a-servant-heart/
Hi Kelsey! Maybe if you have time one day, can you please make a video or post a list of the regular ingredients you keep in your pantry, that you use to cook from scratch? I'm trying to re-stock my kitchen with mostly only healthy ingredients and I love your recipes. I'm going to try my best to cook from scratch for my children. I would love to see what you buy on a regular basis that you always keep on hand!
Thank you! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I actually have one! It is part of my Homemakers Helping Hand Planner which you can get for free here: westmanacademyhomeschool.com/2023/12/12/free-downloads/#jp-carousel-3600 I tried to copy the link from the picture, but it says "Ingredient List". Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse This is SO helpful- thank you very much!!❤️
Are you Catholic? Noticed you mentioned word on fire and Ascension presents 😅🥰 I'm a Catholic homeschooling mom too but my oldest is 14 😅 youngest is 3 months!
Yes! Yay! I need all the advice. You are awesome. 14 to 3 is my future, I hope, but how do you teach all the grades with littles?
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse that's the key right? 😅 My kids start getting really independent on school work around 10 years old. We do morning basket they all stay for whatever book I've decided we're working on and the gospel of the day and then they branch out and do their own thing and I make rounds to see if they need help. My oldest is taking college courses! We use the good and the beautiful and literature. We are also are a part of a homeschool co-op. Hope that helps!
What do you have in jars on your counter?
Flour, sugar, oat flour (for my daughter with celiac disease). I also keep quick oats too.
Are those the jars? The clear glass ones with lids?
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse That's awesome! I was hoping to fill my counters up with sensible things that I can use every day and still look nice and homey 🥰
I love your set up! It totally inspired me in my kitchen 🩷
@@faithfulacresfarmhouse Yes those jars! I was wondering what I could fill mine with that I could use all the time 😊
What do you mean ''stop being selfish"? you don't explain it
I know that your husband works all day but he can’t support you in the housekeeping at the end of the day, knowing that you’ve done it 100x already? Maybe just the dishes? Sheesh
My husband is very helpful when he gets home. I'm very lucky 😊
