Restful Motherhood- My 7 Day Rhythm Of Creating Rest

[@italiangoldenpan5844]

My sweet Milena, please reupload Your old videos. They are a testimony on how God has worked on you and tour Heart,Your journey Is so beautiful. Please❤

[@charlalaizaartajo5152]

yes please reupload it.

[@MrsBriannaLee]

A lot of her old videos have her children’s faces in them, and she’s very against that in present day due to protecting them and giving them privacy. So although I agree that they showed her progression with the Lord, for the protection of her family she probably won’t. ❤

[@Dana-mb1hd]

I loved her old videos!

[@aemm4591]

She inspired me in so many ways

[@CheyenneMarie]

yes please!!!! i miss ur old content so much!!!!!

[@alyssasmith5433]

Would love to see more in your schedule for the week and how you plan things out. My biggest struggle in motherhood has been planning, orgnazing and prioritizing so I can make room for other things in life such as rest.

[@bex308]

ME TOO

[@daniellealexis6623]

yes! like when do you do house projects that need to be done or plan for homeschool , ect

[@simplyj_17]

I am excited that I am finally not luke warm anymore. Everyday I wake up with God through out my day I walk with God & I end my day with God. Thank you for motivating all of us as Sisters & children of God. You're an inspiration. God Bless you. 1 thing I pray is that my husband grows closer to God with me & to go to church with me. He isn't a church goer. But if anyone would like to pray for my Husband to grow closer to God/Jesus & be apart of the journey thank you. GOD BLESS to everyone. Have a blessed day!

[@KaelaAndCo]

So excited to listen to this. I was just “resting”, taking some “me” time the other day…. At the store lol… and I got in my car and just cried out to the Lord because it was so unsatisfying. And I was just like man Lord, only you can satisfy. As I was in the store I kept thinking how being away from my kids wasn’t even really what I wanted or needed. Our rest is truly only found in him.

[@Lovefashion2812]

Hi Milena, yes!! I would love to see how you structure your week, how you organize your time and activities ‘cause I only have one 1 year old and it seems like I can barely do anything! It would really help to know how you manage your time. I really admire how you can do so many things with 4 little ones! Also, I just want to say your videos been such a blessing for me! God richly blessed you! 💕

[@rebeccastaib551]

I love everything about this, I’m so inspired to make a sabbath for our family too, unplugged and no worries about chores for one day, focusing on each other and the Lord. Something I do to find rest during the week, (on those days where the kids are off the wall and I’m not ready for it) I put on an Autumn Jazz playlist on my kitchen speaker and it helps me so much

[@yuliiabelichenko6042]

Yes, please, make a video of your time management ❤love all your videos! Thank you!

[@sophia-sb3kq]

I never thought of my ego with household chores. Wow that was truly eye opening for me

[@WalkingwithLaura]

Thank you, I have been embracing a slower lifestyle especially on the weekends. I feel you on the clock! Its still a process, I still use my phone on the weekend and my hubby loves TV. I pray the Lord continues to move and shape our prayers and actions to bring true rest into our homes ❤

[@sandracosgrove8970]

Thankyou for showing mothers that they can worship God and help our children do the same ❤ in your journey❤

[@Abeautifulmundanelife]

❤ beautiful reminders that God gave us the Sabbath and it is good to rest in Him

[@rosy4646]

Hi Milena, you’re so beautiful and have greatly helped me on my walk. Ive been watching you on and off for years, but I was saved this past easter 3/31/24 !! and these last months you have greatly impacted me and my study/ relationship with the Lord , as well as my relationship with the women in my life. We all watch your videos. Blessings to you and your gorgeous family. ❤️🙏🏻💓☀️😊

[@charlcyhollingsworth9996]

When you were talking about quiet time not being quiet I was internally screaming “SAY MORE, SIS!” Would love a video about how you trained them for quiet time. As a WFH mama, dropping naps has been hard!

[@Salome-s9w]

This is so on time for me, I was just speaking with my husband and told him that I needed a week of rest. Not just me, the children too. We homeschool and I am so thankful to God that we can take this break for ourselves. Just us, basic chores, hygiene,meals, and JESUS! I just found your channel and you’ve gained a subscriber. I’m so looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@ashleyquinones3758]

I know that I am so much more prepared from motherhood because of this spirit led ministry, Milena. Thank you for this helpful video. ❤❤

[@wv9459]

I’ve been sort of implementing sabbath on Saturdays over the past couple months and it is SO nice. I’ve gotta implement rest during the week too now.

[@MA-cw9lt]

yes please do a video on the week routine and how you manage this and if a women has work from 9-5 how can they accomplish the evenings successfully?

[@Tammy_lovehearts]

Milena, You have so many people who really appreciate you just trying to be the best version of you in everything you do. Thankyou for sharing your guidance, thoughts and growth. I know in this era we live in, it's so hard to do this. I can't imagine what it's like. It's one of the reasons I just can't upload. God bless you, God keep you always and your beautiful family . Take rest sweetheart. I pray God only keeps you brave and showers his love on you for all the sweet things you share with us. HugsX

[@alexandraglamvida9882]

Milena, your videos have been such a blessing to me! I find myself constantly rewatching your videos because they are so rich with information! I also love that you are learning hymns on the piano, when you started playing how great thou art, it literally brought tears to my eyes. Hymns are so beautiful!

[@e.b.4591]

Yes, please do a video on the different ways you set up your days and schedules etc. - I'd love that!! And thank you for your videos, they are so helpful. 😊🙏🏼

[@ObserveArtAdvisory]

Your home is lovely Milena. I’m so happy for this new season in your life. ❤

[@TwiFiveGirls101]

HEY! I recognize that study. Those are questions from Bible Study Fellowship. I'm currently in a local group study in my location too. This year is about Revelation. That is so awesome to know we are doing the same thing on the other side of the country. Its my first year joining BSF, it was recommended by a family friend to help me meet other Christians mom since I'm new to the area. I'm currently pregnant 🤰🏾 with baby 4 and my group has women of all ages too, from 20s to 70s. Its really nice being with these new women. I pray your time in BSF is blessed and joyful. 💝

[@RaymiSosa26]

God bless! Can you please share where I can get that study ?

[@kristengorgolione7170]

I noticed the notes as well! This is my 5th year in BSF 😊

[@samanthapetrulak4200]

I would love to see your routine & how you schedule your week! I love your videos & get so much wisdom & inspiration from you!

[@dshannon1038]

Yes! There was a Christian woman that I was watching, and she said, "Mothers do not rest and can not rest" because you're in charge of the household and life doesn't stop or slow down. And for a while after that videoz I was burning out bc I felt like she was right, I just need to bust out the chores and keep everyone happy and fed ... and it was not practicing being graceful for myself. This video is what I need.. all of it. Thank you.

[@ankeetapatel3137]

My gosh, her heart is so beautiful and thus her house is soo beautiful! Wow 🤩 ❤

[@JackieJ2009]

Really need this. Haven’t even gotten 5 min in yet. Past two days have been so much feeling really burnt out with my 3 young children. Need some practical wisdom. Thank you.

[@nataliecramer6958]

God bless you Milena and these videos your making now ! I’ve been watching you for years. This last year I have truly found Jesus and I deeeeeply appreciate and cherish your videos there so helpful and realistic

[@sheilawiens4585]

I love that floral quilt ❤

[@jenAKnND]

Sooo good, Milena! You sure do know how to be used by the Holy Spirit and also be used by the Holy Spirit to help others. So much truth spoken in this video. It was like it was made just for me. Thank you for taking the time to create such beautiful biblical content! I wish every Mom could hear this. 💕

[@eclem1474]

I’ve been reading that book in my down time too, and boy is the Lord working through Ginger’s words in my life! Such an encouragement 🙏🏼🌷🕊️

[@micaelablogs]

I love everything about this video! And I agree, I don't want a break from my kids, I just want to break from doing it all on my own. I'm always so thankful to have my husband around so I can truly just enjoy being with them.

[@jennybelinson8191]

Milena you are truly such a wonderful source of biblical wisdom. Thank you so much! ❤

[@kelsiedanae]

I’m so happy to see you doing BSF! I am a leader in CO and it’s so cool to see how expansive this ministry has become for women young and old alike! Cannot wait to continue studying Revelation with you all ❤

[@mutugiivymukiri1688]

I'm in Kenya, and my mom and son are in BSF here in Nairobi.

[@LilyAlcee]

My greatest challenge is that anything but being on my phone and watching tv feels like work, not rest.

[@randiley]

Thank you for sharing. That’s very transparent of you. I sometimes feel that way too.

[@rebeccaware2157]

Your videos bless me so much, thank you! This is a topic I’ve been praying about a lot lately. Does living in your new home just feel like a dream? I’m obsessed with interior design, a passion I never explored as I pursued medicine, but seeing glimpses of your home also makes me excited 😊

[@SmalltalkwithAndrea]

What a beautiful video, Milena. Thank you for the reminder! 🤍 I don’t know if you would be willing to share some of your interior design in your home? It looks so beautiful and I would love some inspiration. Thank you

[@blondinegalperin5928]

Love this .. trying to implement sabbath into our home.. but I find myself making exceptions and doing household chores instead of letting them go . It’s a challenge but so needed to have a day of rest that God gifted to us ❤

[@lottiewallin]

What has been more important to me than rest has been to have time and space for myself. Me and my husband has both worked part time, and split the housework equally. I would not have wanted it any other way, and that goes for my husband to. We have found rest in different ways, but the teenage years were much tougher than when the kids were babies 😊

[@mariechu702]

You said rest & 4 kids…. And I just subscribed! 😂❤ I’m a mama of 4 also. Can’t wait to learn more from you

[@IkariaC]

Members of the SDA church still practice the sabbath day.

[@kewamenyoke1799]

Yes we do

[@LaRenMilano]

We will even keep it in heaven

[@mindfulmotherhooddoula]

Thank you for sharing!! I love seeing when you post videos, you have truly changed my mindset on motherhood and being a wife. Truly grateful. Truly truly. I can’t thank you enough for the impact you’ve spoken into my life.

[@hopesmom77]

Yes please list the order of your days. I feel I am under a strapped mindset of homeschool and chore schedules. All of which, seems I cannot keep up with, so the same drill starts over every morning. But I am always backed up with things I would love to get done but can’t fit in the hours of the day. I know it’s bc I’m on overload and I need to find a schedule that I can follow that simply helps me navigate easily. You are such a wise young women and I enjoy the wisdom you have let the Lord give you. We also keep the 7th day sabbath…Joyful Feast of Trumpets!

[@aleena395]

Wow this video had so much wisdom. Thank you so much! God bless you and your family!!

[@thatchristianstuff]

I’m really missing your sit-down videos. Because of the transition to B roll and voice-overs, I’m losing the connection and interest. Blessings on your KZbin journey, just wanted to provide that feedback as a viewer.

[@ayrianamosiychuk]

Yes I agree!! I get so much more distracted when it’s not a sit down video

[@hayelizabethp]

This! Havnt been able to get through a whole video in months

[@parentiadventures1288]

I actually prefer these style videos, with B-roll and voice overs! Love the variety on your channel!

[@ambermieras1503]

It looks like you’re doing the BSF study too. It is such a blessing! ❤️

[@amandadetaylor]

I know its hard now because of your kids but please do more sit down videos where you connect with us more.

[@britneyordonez294]

Love to see how you are growing in the Lord ♥️ it is truly so encouraging! Love this content. I totally understand not wanting to share your children online as well. How ever i do miss the home content such as decor, cleaning tips, favorites, etc. would love for you to sprinkle more of that here and there if possible ♥️

[@nancydroge7682]

Milena, THANK YOU! 🎶I started singing when you were playing, ‘How Great Thou Art!’ 🎶 Powerful video! ~Grateful!

[@baileekinchen2664]

Oh I really needed to hear the bit about sleep! I have a 6 month old and an almost 3 year old and I feel like I’ll never sleep again! 🤪 I’ve been going back and forth about sleep training. But you’re right, it is such a fleeting season.

[@e.b.4591]

Thank you so much for this video and the insights into your routines as a family! Could you go more into detail as to how you taught your kids to do quiet time? And I'm wondering: What do your children do while you rest, journal, practice the piano etc.? For how long do they play on their own or do you constantly have to provide them with new activities? (Not having kids yet over here 😃)

[@MotherhoodforEternity]

Hi Milena, Happy Preparation Day! Just wanted to say that I truly appreciate your videos. It’s been about a year now since I stumbled upon your video on submission to your husband and it was truly inspiring that I’ve been checking your content on a weekly basis. Thank you for bringing the Scripture to us on a weekly basis. I would like to say that our family keeps the Saturday Sabbath too as taught in the Bible. I work hard during the six days Sun-Fri and take a full Sabbath rest from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. I do all my cooking and baking the day before as what we’re taught in the Scripture in Exodus 16:23 “And he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.” Household chores are put on hold and if there certain things that I didn’t get to like folding and putting away laundry then that waits till the Sabbath ends. I usually pick it up on Sunday. I like to run extra loads of laundry on Friday because it feels so much better seeing empty laundry baskets on Sabbath. So, how we keep the Sabbath in our home is we wake up early and go to church and spend the whole morning there, fellowship and visit with the people at church during the fellowship meal (mindful of our conversations), then go and visit a nursing home or hospital or one of the church members home, or invite others to our home for a Sabbath meal after the service, have a Bible study at home in the afternoon or go and have a picnic at the park or go and spend time in nature. We traditionally end the Sabbath with popcorn, fruits, and smoothie and officially close it with worship just as the sun sets. It’s very relaxing, refreshing, and rejuvenating. It’s that special day we get to spend time with God and His people and to be able do do more good to others. We especially try to make sure we get to take the girls out for some nature time. It’s definitely a day for relationships. In all of the Sabbath activities we also make sure that we get a quiet time for ourselves and that those that need a nap, naps. Another excellent chapter in the Bible to read on Sabbath is Isaiah 58. Also, it’s another great day to make music with like-minded people who just love to praise the Lord. BTW, we don’t eat out on Sabbath because we want to make sure we don’t make others work for us or serve us based on Exodus 20:8-11.

[@jguzman9782]

This is such a blessing I have 2 under 2 My baby was born mid july, month later we moved, ive been on the go go, so stressed and tense trying to do everything, considering i dont have the help Today my body started to feel down, and i know its not from resting well Such a blessing of a message Thank you! I felt that my toddler still wakes up at night 😅

[@LoveAndTruth-n7v]

We are ready to hear your beautiful testimony Milena ❤️

[@MAQ1319]

We rest and at the same time get closer to the creator 5 times a day In islam we have to pray obligatory prayers 5 times a day so there are less chances of getting tired or exhausted After each prayer/salah one feels fresh and energetic and ready to go

[@deannaisabelle7096]

Milena, seeing your Bible study question makes me think that we are doing the same study!! I’m in a different state but same Bible Study and absolutely LOVE IT! Was encouraged to surround myself with older women who can pour into me and so I can hear all of their wisdom. It has been THE BEST! Thank you!

[@Lionessshani]

Hi, Milena! I've been watching you since I was in high school and I am now 25. I am unsure if you'll read this, but I hope so. Firstly, I was one of those people missing your vlogs cause I felt a connection with you for some reason, even though we've never met. Secondly, I have been honestly loving your messages. It has helped me and I am single lol. Your ministry is blessing those of us who are single and though I may have had some pushback with your new content, I am grateful you kept doing what God called you to do, even through the adversity of the comments. I hope you know that I remain a fan of your content and will continue to be blessed until you stop KZbin of course. I hope if you see this, it will encourage you! Blessings to you, your family, and your ministry!!🙏🏾😊

[@samanthashannon221]

Please pray for my husband, he's been depressed ever since a 2 year long injury, he needs prayer for his physical, mental spiritual health. I believe his physical health is hplding up alot. I desire his participation in our marriage our family and children and through the help of the Holy Spirit the Lord has been giving me wisdom in how to lift him up but I fall short often. Please pray for us both to be healed and on the same page. Love your channel a sister in Christ shared it with me and I'm so grateful God bless you family thank you in advance for the prayers and anyone that has a prayer request please reply so I can pray for you also❤

[@dm_uncut]

I see other people commenting to reupload your old videos…I would love to know if one day you’d be willing to share , why you deleted them? I’m here to support that vote, reupload! You don’t know how much the video of you talking about having saved yourself for marriage reaches women and encourages us. You encouraged me after seeing that video for the first time to change my life and want to save myself for marriage 🩷 God bless you

[@soccergirldiva]

I believe she mentioned once that some videos she removed because she no longer agrees with contents within the video and doesn’t want to lead people astray, while other videos she removed because they no longer post footage of their children’s identity and therefore removed videos that her kids were in

[@sarahbethboyett]

So encouraged by this video!! Just curious... does your family observe torah and this is the reason why you have chosen to rest on Saturday or is this just what works best for your family?

[@maybaby1087]

Hi there! New here 😊 You mentioned a lot about observing Abba's sabbath on the 7th day, Saturday. I didn't want to assume so I'm asking... does your family also observe YHWH'S 7 feast days from Passover to Sukkot? You also mentioned attending Sunday church... do you fellowship with a Torah pursuant congregation? I ask, not to be cheeky, discouraging or preachy, but because I'm a believer in the Way and was so happy to hear a lot of what you share from what seems a familiar perspective 😊

[@lc8119]

Just out of curiosity, do you think you will continue sabbath when your children are in sports and activities? Or will you avoid Saturday commitments for the foreseeable future?

[@EmTheCrunchyHomemaker]

Pretty sure I know exactly her answer here as I also share the same view. She will probably avoid extra curricular activities on the sabbath as they just become another chore 😊
